Henry’s tone was gentle. Melanie paused. “There’s no hurry. When are you going for the

checkup? I’ll go with you.‘

“It’s just a routine checkup. It’s not a big deal.” Henry waved her off and gave Eugene a

look of warning. “I’ll be fine as long as that brat stops pissing me off.”

Henry still had plenty of vigor in his words, at least, so Melanie was a little relieved to see

that.

Only then did she look up at Eugene. The wet stain on his shoulder was especially eye–

catching, and the corners of his eyes were lowered. He did not refute Henry’s words.

Melanie had come here at the last minute and did not apply for leave from the organizers.

Moreover, the summit was nearing the end, and there was more information she needed

to sort out. After Melanie saw that Henry was doing alright, she wanted to return to the

conference room.

Henry wanted her to stay for dinner, but Melanie shook her head and gently refused. She

still had business to attend to in the conference room.

The old man could not change her mind. Moreover, Landon reminded him that it was time

for him to

take his medicine. In order to placate him, Melanie agreed to have dinner with him that

night.

The weather had taken a turn for the worse over the past two days. When she looked out

the window, the sky was dark. Melanie packed her things and turned to leave.

As soon as she walked out of the inner room, Eugene followed her out. He was still holding

a coat in his hand, saying lightly, “I’ll send you there. I have something to talk to you

about. It’s about

Redwaves and Blue Inc.”

Melanie looked at him calmly and did not refuse.

Eugene went to change and brought Melanie downstairs. Lee was driving, as usual, so

they waited in the hotel lobby while he brought the car.

Outside, the passersby had donned their winter gear. Melanie looked out at the gray sky

and said, What did you want to talk about?”

“I went through the document Cameron sent me last night. Xander made some last–

minute changes to some of the designs, and now the cost will go over the budget again.”

Eugene stared down at his phone and said without looking up, “When will you send us the

details?”

“I’ll contact Xander tonight. We’ll handle it as soon as we can.”

Eugene chuckled softly. There was not much emotion in his voice.

Someone walked into the hotel and brought in a wisp of cold air from outside. Melanie

turned slightly

to the side.

She seemed to be especially intolerant of the cold this year. Even a little cold breeze made

her feel

uncomfortable.

Fortunately, Lee arrived quickly. The car was well heated, and Melanie felt warm as soon

as she got inside.

Harvey seemed to be doing a lot of things under the table, trying to expand his reach in

Jepton. Melanie was not too surprised when Eugene mentioned it to her.

“However…” Eugene changed his tone and said slowly, “Jackson Lowe is coming back.”

Jackson Lowe was Harvey’s maternal uncle and the real person in charge of Redwaves. Mr.

Fuller had told her about him before.

Melanie frowned slightly. She was still a little worried. “When is he coming back? Harvey

will definitely spread a lot of rumors in the meantime.”

After all, everyone could see that Harvey had a particular target in mind lately. He needed

to find a suitable reason to explain his actions.

Melanie tended to get too invested when she was engrossed in her work. She looked down

at her fair fingertips in a daze, her mind whirring.

Eugene looked up just enough to catch her expression in the rearview mirror.

His pitch–black pupils flickered, and there was a faint hint of helplessness in his eyes. He

quickly hid that wisp of emotion and said lightly, “What’s there to be worried about? No

matter how upset Jackson gets, he will still come after LeapCo first.”

He sounded nonchalant, but his words reminded Melanie that Burning Star was now bound

to LeapCo. No matter what happens, LeapCo will shield Burning Star from the brunt of the

damage.
