Chapter 391
After George took the money, he disappeared for a few days.
Melanie had been thinking about Eugene’s offer recently, George and Dylan were in the same boat.
She did not want to get involved with them ever again, so she had not gone to look for
them.
Besides, this might not be able to solve the problem once and for all.
It was even more impossible to take care of the loan sharks.
“Melanie, what’s wrong? Why do you look like you have a lot on your mind these days?” Reny’s voice
brought Melanie back to her senses.
She looked at Reny. “It’s nothing. I was just thinking about something.”
“Is it about your grandfather? It should be fine, I asked one of my aunts, and she said that as long as
his body doesn’t reject the surgery for half a month, he’ll probably be fine. He just has to get enough
rest.”

That day, she stayed in the north side until evening before returning to the villa,
At the end of the day, it was still not safe there. Xander and the others were all against Melanie
returning to live there now.
The department took advantage of the situation. After Burning Star and Blue Inc reached an
agreement, they still decided to sign a deal with Burning Star, so Xander and the others had been
intensifying their efforts to revise the proposal.
As a newbie to this field, Melanie was put in charge of logistics.
She was going out shopping today, and Reny had come out with her. Reny followed Melanie with the
shopping bags in her hand, saying tentatively, “Melanie, if you need anything, you can talk to the boss.
He should be able to help you.”
“Although he has cut ties with his family, he’s quite capable. Otherwise, he couldn’t have brought us to
where we are today.”
Melanie nodded and did not refuse her kind offer. “I know. If I ever need help, I’ll tell him.”
“Actually, the boss is a decent catch. He’s good–looking, well–educated, well–off, and kind. Melanie,
maybe-”
Before Reny could finish that thought, Melanie interrupted her. “Reny.”
Reny paused.
Melanie asked, “The contract with LeapCo hasn’t been signed yet. Will that affect our progress?”
She was obviously trying to change the subject.
Reny gave her a wry laugh and a helpless look. “Melanie, you’ve been asking me that question every
time you try to change the subject these days.”

“I’m just a little worried about it.”
Rainie shook her head. “You just don’t want us to match you with Xander.”

Melanie was silent. After a moment, she sighed softly. “I’m not in the mood to think about romance right
now. Xander is a great guy, so don’t make these jokes at his expense.”
Was she rejecting any possibility of dating him? Reny felt sorry for Xander for a moment.
All of them had been friends with Xander for many years, so they could tell he was clearly interested in
her. It was just that Melanie was clearly not in the mood for romance right now.
Things were complicated on his mother’s side too, so Xander probably did not want to implicate
Melanie in his mess.
Rainy sighed inwardly. They were both such sticks in the mud.
When they returned to the villa, neither of them said anything. However, they bumped into someone
unexpected.
Stella walked around the corner with a dignified middle–aged woman in tow. They came from the
direction of the hot springs, and she frowned automatically when she saw Melanie.
Carla, on the other hand, was slightly surprised. She asked Stella, “Isn’t that Eugene’s girlfriend?”
Stella looked displeased. “What girlfriend?”
Carla sensed her attitude and smiled. “Sorry about that. I heard from Luna that Eugene has had quite a
few partners in the past few years. Come on, don’t hover over him too much or he’ll start to resent you.”
