Chapter 700

Due to the delay and the traffic along the way, Melanie was almost late when she arrived

at the

conference hall.

She had originally planned to eat something quick for lunch, but it was too late now.

As soon as she went upstairs, she saw Yvette walking out with a stormy expression.

Melanie asked her, “Who pissed you off?”

“Viola’s here,” Yvette snapped. “She started picking on me as soon as she got here. Urgh,

I hate her

mean sarcastic voice.”

Melanie looked at Yvette even more curiously. Yvette was the type to fight back if Viola

provoked her, so why did she leave the room?

As soon as she went inside, Melanie saw Viola. Beside her stood Harvey and Yvette’s boss.

No wonder Yvette was so frustrated and upset.

Melanie glanced at the group and turned around to look for Yvette.

Yvette was livid. “She’s such a bootlicker! She even hinted that they haven’t sealed the

deal with our

studio yet.”

Melanie could guess why Viola was targeting Yvette. It was mostly because of her.

She thought for a moment and comforted Yvette softly. “I heard that Jackson Lowe is

coming back.”

Yvette blinked for a moment, and her face lit up… only to fall again soon after. “Mr. Lowe

is a tough customer, too. He’s famously strict, and he doesn’t like any one of us.”

She sighed and was about to continue complaining when she was interrupted by a low

voice.

Eugene was holding a small takeout box in his hand. His eyelashes were lowered, and he

did not look at Melanie. Instead, he focused on the box and paused before saying, “It’s

from Grandpa.”

Melanie glanced at the food he had brought. It was from a nearby store. She hesitated,

reluctant to

accept it.

Eugene looked up, his eyes as calm as a quiet lake. “Grandpa is worried that you didn’t

eat lunch. Skipping meals is not good for you.

Thinking of how Grandpa had insisted on keeping her for lunch, Melanie hesitated for a

moment before reaching out to accept the box. “Thank you.‘

Eugene’s furrowed brows relaxed slightly. He nodded and did not say anything else,

promptly leaving.

Yvette watched from the side and clicked her tongue. “If I didn’t know better, I’d say he

was your doting boyfriend.”

“Don’t joke about that.”

Yvette raised her eyebrows, her anger from before gone in an instant. She put her arm

around Melanie’s shoulder and said to her seriously, “I’m serious, girl. People like him are

great actors. Think about his history with Viola! You can’t let yourself be moved by these

small favors.”

Melanie’s eyes did not waver. She understood that better than Yvette.

However, she could not just tell Yvette why.

Melanie took her things and was about to enter the conference room when she looked up

and met Viola’s gaze.

Viola looked straight at Melanie, her eyes slowly moving down to the takeout box in her

hand. Her pale, almost sickly face, was filled with undisguised hostility.

Melanie might have gotten used to the look in Viola’s eyes, but she still did not like being

stared at like that. Her expression darkened slightly. She was about to walk past Viola

when the latter turned her gaze away first.

The next second, Melanie heard her say, “Mr. Grant, when are we going to inform them

that we’ve decided to reject Burning Star’s application?”
