Melanie was lost in thought until her phone rang. Seeing that it was Stella calling, she frowned slightly.

Stella rarely initiated contact with her.

After hesitating for a moment, she answered the call, and Stella’s commanding tone came through.

“Come to Paramount Hospital and bring some supplements.”

When Melanie arrived, she learned that Madam York, Stephen’s mother, had accidentally injured her

arm and needed to be hospitalized for observation.

When Stella saw Melanie, she raised her eyebrows. “Leave the things and you can leave.”

Her tone was unpleasant. Melanie pressed her lips together, choosing not to speak. Stella was

Eugene’s mother, and be it publicly or privately, Melanie could not say much.

“Thank you.” On the hospital bed, Madam York nodded gently with warmth and courtesy.

Melanie shook her head and left the ward under Stella’s urging.

As soon as she stepped out of the ward, she collided with Stephen, who had been in a hurry. Stephen

was surprised to run into Melanie here and supported her, asking, “Are you okay?”

“I’m fine.” Melanie did not want to obstruct his path and moved aside so that he could enter.

Madam York’s room was a private one with a partition inside. Before Melanie could leave, she

overheard Stella’s somewhat sharp voice, saying, “If there’s anything you need, just ask Melanie to do

it. She doesn’t have much to do anyway.”

Melanie’s expression remained unchanged at the statement. She still had work to finish when Stella

called her over. She anticipated another night of overtime when she returned.

“Mel?” Stephen had also heard what Stella said. He comforted Melanie gently for a bit before going

inside to check on Madam York. He had initially wanted to invite Melanie to dinner, but considering her

work demands, she declined.

Two hours had passed by the time she returned to the company. When she entered the office, she saw

Viola chatting with Yana. When Viola saw that Melanie had returned, she slowly went

back to her seat.

Melanie placed her bag down and asked, “Is everything sorted out?”

“It’s all sent to your email.”

Melanie nodded and sat down at her computer. The planning for Oceanus Industries was a challenging

task. After reviewing the form that Viola had revised, she noticed a missing piece of data.

Melanie had intended to locate the information herself, but considering how much she had on her plate,

she handed the documents back to Viola. She instructed her to make the correction.

Viola was somewhat reluctant. “Isn’t the form already fixed?”

“There’s one more piece of data missing. It should be in the database. Check it.”

Melanie’s request was reasonable as it was part of Viola’s responsibilities. However, searching through

the extensive database would take time.

Due to always being by Eugene’s side and having his protection, Viola had the privilege of not having

to learn certain things. it made her somewhat clumsy when it came to certain tasks.

By the time Melanie finished organizing the data on her side, Viola had not managed to extract the

data. Unable to just watch any longer, Melanie gave her a reminder with furrowed brows. Yet, Viola

continued her work with an expression of indifference.

After finally finishing work for the day, it was already half an hour later than the usual time she got off

work. Melanie packed up and prepared to leave. However, Viola stopped her. Melanie, do you want to

have dinner together tonight? As thanks for driving me home last night.”

“I have something to do,” replied Melanie expressionlessly.

The office door was pushed open just as she said that, and Eugene’s cedar scent wafted in. He

glanced at Melanie and looked at Viola. “Why so late today?”

“Melanie came back late,” Viola said, attributing their overtime to Melanie.

Eugene’s gaze landed on her, the corners of his eyebrows lifting as he waited for Melanie’s

explanation.

Melanie took a deep breath and explained slowly, “Aunt asked me to go to the hospital to deliver

something.”

“She asked and you went?” Eugene threw out this question casually after a pause. It was a simple

inquiry without any other meaning.

Over the next three days, Melanie managed to outline the plan for Oceanus Industries. After having

settled down during this time, Viola also made much faster progress.
