Eugene did not look happy. He stared at Melanie, a slight frown on his face.

Melanie’s expression did not change. Her heart and mind were both empty. She was like the walking

dead.

Even when she told the police that she wanted to have George charged with murder, she had done it

mechanically and matter–of–factly. She was unwilling to use any extra time or energy.

Eugene would not budge, and Melanie would not open her mouth.

She just looked at him silently.

Eventually, Xander stepped up and said, “Mr. Scott, please move aside. You’re blocking the way.”

Eugene’s dark eyes looked at him for only a moment before turning back to Melanie.

It was Melanie who sighed first.

She looked down at her toes and said in a soft voice, “I’ve been busy with work all these years and

have never been able to accompany him properly. Can you let me be alone with him for a while? For

the last time.”

Eugene’s frown deepened. Melanie looked at Xander. “Could you watch over things here for me?”

Xander took off his jacket and draped it over Melanie’s shoulders. He said gently, “Call me anytime if

you need anything.”

Melanie nodded and walked away.

She wanted to spend more time with her grandfather.

The old man often said that when a person’s soul left their body after death, they would linger in

confusion like a newborn baby.

Melanie thought she should go and stay with him, just in case he could not find her and got anxious

again.

As soon as she was gone, the gentleness on Xander’s face faded. He looked at Eugene. “Mr. Scott, if

you have something to do, go ahead. I’ll take care of Mel.”

Eugene sneered coldly. “You have a lot of time on your hands, do you? If Xavier Solomon knew, he

would be happy to find something for you to do.”

Xander’s eyes narrowed slightly, and his usual lazy aura turned hard. “Mr. Scott, instead of butting into

my private affairs, why don’t you settle your family matters first?”

Xander was about to leave when Eugene called out to him in a cold voice.

As someone who had been in the business world for many years, he had the pressure of a tycoon

could not be ignored. Eugene reminded Xander in an emotionless tone, “The Solomons have a lot of

problems to be untangled.”

Xander was unmoved. He raised his eyebrows slightly and retorted mockingly, “Even so, you don’t

have to worry about me, Mr. Scott.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he walked into the office to keep an eye on George.

Only Eugene stood rooted to the ground. His dark eyes seemed to be brewing up a storm, and no one

dared to approach him.

A moment later, he raised his gaze and looked ahead – in the direction in which Melanie had just left.

His phone rang It was Cedric, his father.

The coldness in Eugene’s eyes slowly turned to Arctic ice. Then, he turned around and picked up the

call

Cedric’s voice was as harsh and heavy as ever. “Come home. We need to talk.”

Eugene’s voice was cold. “What is it?”

“There’s someone you should see.”

Melanie stayed in the hospital until night time. The news of her grandfather’s death quickly reached

everyone.

Stephen, Reny, Yana, and Tina all rushed to her side.

Melanie stopped talking after a short while. She was not in good spirits.

Stephen sighed softly. “Mel, the dead can’t come back. Your grandfather wouldn’t want to see you like

this,”

Melanie nodded. “I know.”

Her expression was very calm. Other than her red eyes, no one would think that she had been crying
