Chapter 529
Melanie observed Eugene quietly with her phone in hand. She was not completely clueless considering she had years of
experience. When she sensed something was wrong last night, she immediately took advantage of the time she spent calling
Yvonne to start a recording.
Originally, her intention was to gather evidence against Mason, but unexpectedly, she ended up with evidence against Viola and
Quentin.
She looked at her phone. It had only 21% battery left. Opening the file transfer assistant, she sent the recording to save it.
Eugene’s shirt was unbuttoned, revealing his prominent Adam’s apple that was illuminated by the faint morning light. Melanie
could not see his expression clearly as he was facing the light, but she heard him reply casually without any seriousness at all,
“Why should I testify for you?
Melanie paused. She was not surprised. It would be strange if he was willing to help her. She was planning to sue Viola, and it
It did not matter, though.
Melanie raised a brow, her beautiful eyes no longer carrying the tenderness and charm from the night before. Instead, they were
calm.
“I’m just informing you that I have enough evidence now,” she said simply, her voice hoarse but calm. She looked back at her
phone and chuckled lightly. “She made a mistake talking so much.”
Melanie still felt a bit sore and eased herself onto the couch in the room. An unpleasant smell lingered in the air, causing
Melanie’s brows to furrow slightly.
Being in such an environment, she could not help but feel slightly discomfited despite her calm outward appearance. Moreover,
Eugene was standing there.
There was a moment of silence. Eugene did not answer until his phone’s brief ringing interrupted the silence. Melanie looked at
Eugene, whose eyes narrowed slightly as he answered the phone.
Due to the distance between them, Melanie could not hear what was happening. She could only see Eugene’s expression
turning cold.
go.”
Melanie nodded but did not say much. The forced peace between the two of them was not enough to encourage further
communication.
After a brief pause, Eugene bent down to pick up his coat and made straight for the door. Melanie looked at his upright figure
before she lowered her gaze slightly. “Eugene,” she called
out to him.
Eugene’s footsteps paused, and he turned his head to the side.
“Last night was just an accident. Can you please not tell anyone?” she said calmly.
It was one thing for her to be unfazed by what happened, but it was good to keep it from
spreading.
Eugene, however, immediately replied to her in a mocking tone, “Are you afraid of someone finding out?”
His deep and dark eyes were drilling holes into Melanie. His thin lips curled upward as he sneered. “Don’t worry, I don’t have
time to waste. Besides, you’re nothing more than that.”
With that said, he left.
Only then was Melanie able to relax slightly. However, the room was so gloomy, and that lingering scent seemed to tease her
incessantly. Melanie sat there for a while before getting up to get some fresh air by the window. By the time Yvonne came over,
the smell in the room had mostly dissipated..
