Chapter 685
Melanie said, “I’ve stopped drinking coffee for a while.”
Yvette nodded. “You’re right. It’s best to be careful when you’re pregnant.”
Lee’s voice was heard behind her after that. “Melanie.”
in
Melanie turned to look in the direction of the voice. There was a cup of milk i Lee’s hand as
well as some snacks. He gave them to Melanie. “Mr. Scott says you can only drink milk.”
She glanced at it and turned away. “You can have them. I can’t eat that much.”
Melanie still had the breakfast Hugh gave her. He had bought them for her after asking her
what she liked the night before.
She was adamant about rejecting the offer. Lee’s heart chilled. He smiled awkwardly and
bitterly. “I’m just doing as Mr. Scott instructed, Melanie. It’s pointless to put me in a
difficult position.”
Melanie replied, “Don’t put me in a difficult position too.”
Lee opened his mouth to say something but had no idea what to say. Yvette blinked as she

It was clear to her what was happening.
Eugene used the excuse of buying everyone breakfast when the person he really wanted
to give breakfast to was Melanie.
Otherwise, he would not have prepared milk specially for Melanie.
Moreover, the milk and coffee were not bought in the same place.
Yvette tsked at the lost opportunity. Eugene did not personally handle this romantic and
considerate action and got his secretary to do it instead.
A tall, slender figure appeared in front of them the moment she thought this.
Eugene was walking slowly up the stairs. There was a cold look in his eyes, and he glanced
at Melanie, who was standing behind Yvette, and Lee, who was still holding the milk in his
hand.
Lee called out to Eugene in a low voice, but Eugene turned to Melanie instead. “I don’t
remember you being lactose intolerant.”
Melanie wanted to turn away and leave when she saw him coming. However, when she
heard his question, she paused in her steps and replied, “I’m lactose intolerant now.”

Eugene lowered his eyes to look at her. He glanced at the toast in her hand and frowned.
“How can that be nutritious for you?”
Melanie was feeling quite annoyed with his random comments. She turned back. to look at
Eugene coolly. “Whatever I have for breakfast has nothing to do with you, Mr. Scott. It
doesn’t matter if it’s nutritious or if I’m lactose intolerant. It’s my business.”
Even Yvette knew Eugene’s intentions, and Melanie knew them too.
However, she could not forget that Eugene might be doing this because of the footage
they saw the night before.
He was probably using this little tactic to find a way to help Viola out of trouble. Melanie
pressed her lips, and her expression was cool.
Eugene might be able to cover up what Viola had done before, but this time, Viola had
come directly for Melanie.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhy should she let Viola get away with this?
Eugene continued frowning. Melanie stared into his dark eyes with a determined look on
her face. Her tone was stubborn as well. She said, “You won’t be able to protect Viola this
time, Eugene Scott.”
She glanced at the milk in Lee’s hand and said emotionlessly, “I’m not lactose intolerant,
but I am if you’re the one who bought the milk. It’ll only make me feel terrible to drink it.”
Melanie turned to leave after that.
Yvette looked at both sides. She had no idea what happened the night before with the
surveillance footage. All she did was say a hurried goodbye to Eugene before running after
Melanie.
After both of them were gone, Lee said awkwardly with the milk still in his hand, ” I’ve said
before that she wouldn’t want it, Mr. Scott…”
Eugene looked at him coldly. “Throw it.”
Lee swallowed his words before he could finish his sentence. He did not dare to say
anything else after that.
