Chapter 825 1/2 Melanie's gaze flickered slightly when she saw Eugene on the stairs, the smile on her face visibly fading. Xander also noticed Eugene, and his gaze dimmed slightly. Though he did not say anything, he subconsciously moved his body toward Melanie in a protective stance.

He happened to block Eugene’s line of sight of Melanie. Melanie also instinctively looked toward Merry, who was sleeping soundly on the couch.

Melanie had not expected Eugene to suddenly appear. She thought he was still outside. She was not a generous person. If Eugene were to stop in front of Merry, she would not be able to act as if nothing was going on.

Melanie was supposed to have given birth to Merry naturally, but due to her being in the breech position, she ended up getting a Cesarean section. Due to this, Melanie ended up suffering twice the pain.

Moreover, she had a tendency to scar easily, so the scar from the C-section would not fade so easily.

Most women cared about their appearance, and sometimes, Melanie felt regretful when she looked at the scar on her belly. However, those regrets seemed insignificant when she thought of Merry’s cuteness.

That was why she was even more determined to protect Merry and prevent her from being discovered by Eugene. She had experienced firsthand how ruthless the Scott family could be. She believed it was best if they never knew about Merry’s existence.

Melanie's attention was focused on Merry, so she did not notice that Eugene had already cdownstairs. There was a chilling aura emanating from him as he approachegeghem, and his footsteps were light. The corners of his eyes seemed to casually sweep over them.

Melanie thought he was looking at Merry and shifted slightly. To Eugene, it looked like she was intentionally hiding behind Xander, a deliberate act of avoiding him.

Eugene's gaze turned cold. He turned and left.

Melanie breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Merry, who was still sound asleep with slight hesitation.

“Do you think I should go back now?” she whispered to Xander. She was afraid of Eugene being with Merry. Even if nothing happened, she still felt nervous.

“The place is still under maintenance now, so it’s not convenient for you to go back. Besides, it would be strange if you took her back now.” Xander reassured her, “Don’t scare yourself. If Eugene had recognized her, he wouldn't have reacted like that.” He had a point. Plus, Merry was only a few months old and her features were not very distinctive. At least, Melanie herself could not tell who she resembled. Merry was just chubby and cute.

Chapter 825 217 Xander’s voice was low and soothing as he consoled her, “It's okay, I'm here,” Due to the circuit maintenance, the entire villa area except for the streetlights and Eugene's villa was pitch- black. There were other tourists in the park too, and swere walking around with flashlights. The atmosphere was quite pleasant.

While Simon and the others were barbecuing, Yvonne brought a skewer to Melanie, which she had grilled herself.

It tasted pretty good.

Simon leaned against the nearby table and teased Yvonne, “Look at you. Your child is sleeping inside, yet you're out here playing?” Yvonne felt embarrassed. She had forgotten her responsibility to take care of Merry for a moment and glanced over at Melanie.

Melanie said, “She's already asleep.” “Heh, anyone who isn’t in the loop would think Melanie is the mom,” Simon joked casually, but he did not expect both Melanie's and Yvonne's expressions to change.

Melanie managed to keep her composure and tugged at Yvonne, signaling her not to speak.
