Melanie had been thinking about persuading Hugh to leave. She could not let Yvonne make the final say for her.

That would not be nice.

She pondered and asked, “How long have you been here?” “About a month.” Melanie said, “You're a student, right? Isn’t it bad to leave the campus for so long?” Hugh looked at Melanie strangely, saying, “Didn’t Yvonne tell you about it? My lab was forced to close because of the funding issue.” “Lab?” Hugh explained, “I'm a postgraduate student at Jepton University, and the lab project was forced to stop because we lacked funds. That's why | clooking for a part-tjob.” He paused when he said the last sentence.

Only Melanie knew why Hugh agreed to help her even though he had a crush on Yvonne.

He was here to work.

Then, she asked, “What were you researching about?” “Building subsurface storage on the moon's surface.” Melanie knew nothing about scientific research and couEhiy divert the topic. Hugh, I'll be busy lately and might be unable to look after you. So, | think you should return to Jepton first.

She added, “I'll transfer you your pay.” Hugh froze. “Am | being fired... Watch out!” His calm emotions fluctuated. Melanie felt a force pushing her away, and the umbrella fell from Hugh's hand.

It happened so suddenly. It took a moment for Melanie to realize a bicycle was dashing in her direction.

The rider was a girl in a raincoat. She fell to the ground with a shocked look on LL her face.

Flustered, she stood up and cried as she apologized.

Hugh did not fall. He just sprained his ankle when he dodged.

Melanie wanted to help him because he had protected her.

However, another hand was quicker than her before she could grab Hugh's arm.

Lee helped Hugh and explained to Melanie, “You aren't strong enough and might hurt him more.

Melanie understood what Lee meant and did not argue with him. She told Hugh, I'll take you to the hospital.” However, before Hugh could walk, the girl sobbed and pointed at Hugh's leg. She said in a panic, “His leg is bleeding.” Meanie looked at Hugh's right calf. His pant leg was torn, revealing a patch of flesh that was covered in blood.

Her heart sank. Before she could ask Hugh about how he was doing, Eugene’s Bentley pulled over before them.

Eugene was in the driver's seat, looking gloomily at Melanie. However, Melanie did not know why.
