Chapter 442
She wanted to apologize to Xander, but he suddenly reached out his slender hand to her.
His voice was low. “There are still no lights on the road ahead. You can hold onto my sleeve.”
“Okay,” Melanie mumbled and tugged on his sleeve.
Reny tactfully shut her mouth and swallowed the words she was about to say.
“Heh, that punk is pretty considerate.” Simon leaned against his sports car. He lit a cigarette. in his
hand and looked at the departing crowd mischievously.
He then turned to look at the expressionless Eugene beside him. His gaze moved down to Eugene’s
hand, still wrapped in bandages. “After what happened to your hand, why are you still working with
them?”
Eugene’s expression was cold, and there was an unreadable emotion in his eyes. “Blue Inc and
Burning Star are both LeapCo’s best business partners at the moment.”

anyway.”
Eugene’s hand was injured, and the bandage was faintly visible under his sleeve. Anyone with a keen
eye could have spotted it.
He looked down at the back of his hand and pressed his lips into a line.
Blue Inc’s annual gala was very grand. They had invited many big shots in the industry.
As soon as Xander and the others entered the hall, other quests approached them to chat. They talked
about work, so Melanie could not interrupt.
She decided to look for Cameron instead.
Cameron was also in charge of the project under Blue Inc. When she found him, Cameron was chatting
with a middle–aged man.
Melanie adjusted her expression and stepped forward. “Good evening, Mr. Crane.”
Cameron smiled back. “Melanie! I was worried you weren’t coming.”
After they exchanged pleasantries, Melanie looked at the middle–aged man next to Cameron.” And this
is?”
“This is a manager at Blue Inc, Wagner. He’s in charge of publicity.” Cameron added, “Wagner has
been liaising with LeapCo recently. Speaking of which, the two of you should have had a chance to
work together.”
Melanie smiled. “We’ll have a chance to cooperate in the future.”
Wagner frowned. “You used to work at LeapCo?”
Melanie nodded.
Wagner looked at her meaningfully and said, “That’s good. Your boss is here too, so you can. catch up

Wagner said, “I was just talking to a former LeapCo employee, so your name came to mind.” Melanie
did not look up, but she could feel Eugene’s slightly mocking gaze on her head.
She pursed her lips and slowly raised her eyes.
Why should she hide? She used to work for LeapCo. It was a fact.
Eugene raised his chin slightly. The bright light above his head added a cold and distant feeling to his
already outstanding facial features.
A moment later, he snorted coldly. “By LeapCo’s former employee, do you mean the one we fired?”
Melanie had to force herself to keep her expression level. The corners of her lips curled up, and she
mimicked Eugene’s cold mockery. “After all I did for LeapCo, is that all you can say about me, Mr.
Scott?”
She looked at Eugene and said in a steady voice, “You’re as ruthless as they say.”
