Chapter 553
Xander stared straight into Eugene, and it was hard for Eugene not to notice it.
He stood outside the fence and looked back at Xander, not intending to avoid it.
“Xander, you look quite idle. Aren’t you afraid Xavier will kick you out of the Solomon family?”
The annoying voice was from Simon.
He bit a cigarette and lit it.
Xander frowned and stood before Melanie to protect her as he lifted his chin. “No wonder Xavier is so arrogant lately. Looks like
he has the Quinland family as his backer.”
Simon smiled. “It’s just a win-win cooperation.”
He was smoking, and Melanie was sensitive to smells. The tobacco smell assailed her nostrils.
Feeling nauseous, Melanie took a step back.
Xander noticed her movement and froze. He used his hand to cover Melanie’s nose, blocking the

smoke.
Melanie endured the discomfort and looked at Xander.
Xander said, “Go inside first if you feel uncomfortable.”

Although Xander had always worked on the materials, he liked remaining clean. So, he had a minty fragrance on him and looked
clean, which smelled good.
Melanie looked at his palm and said, “Thank you.”
They looked like a couple interacting as if no one else was around.
Eugene still looked indifferent, yet his eyes turned gloomier.
It was as if they were the mist in the dawn.
Naturally, Melanie sensed his cold gaze. However, her mind would be in a mess again if she looked at
Eugene.
So, she ignored Eugene and whispered to Xander, “I’ll go in first. Let’s talk later.”
Before she could leave, Eugene spoke suddenly, “Lee said the summary of Burning Star Studio’s project and the proposal hadn’t
been submitted. Looks like you aren’t in a hurry to get the investment.”
Melanie froze and looked at Eugene.

They agreed on LeapCo transferring the money after Burning Star Studio submitted the two documents.

However, the relevant department started the project suddenly, and Oliver needed more time to finish the documents. So,
Melanie still could not submit them.
She said, “I’ll send them to LeapCo in two days.”
Melanie sounded tired. She did not look straight at Eugene. Instead, her eyes were on the tree behind
him.
She had just known she was pregnant and could not face Eugene as if nothing happened.
Apparently, Eugene noticed her avoiding gaze.
His eyes looked colder as he said, “Grandpa told me to get you to come over for a meal, but it seems unnecessary now.”
Melanie’s expression changed, and she had an indescribable, complicated feeling.
She dared not meet Henry.
If Henry knew she was pregnant, things would get more complicated.
The jacket draped on her was pulled, and Xander’s gentle voice came from above her head. “It’s cold in the morning. Go in
before you catch a cold.”
Melanie was reluctant to face Eugene and nodded.
Eugene watched Melanie walking into the villa and seemed to be pondering something.
Xander noticed Eugene’s expression and said, “Mr. Scott, do you have something else to say?”.
