The Unfaithful Mr. Scott novel (Eugene and Melanie)

Chapter 337
Lee was in front of his desk when he saw the upset look on Eugene’s face. An alarm rang inside of him. “Is there something
wrong with the contract, Mr. Scott?”
He had come into the office to bring Eugene a contact, but Eugene looked angry the moment he received a message.
Lee had no idea what was going through Eugene’s mind, and he hesitated before saying, “We haven’t signed the contract for the
exhibition yet. LeapCo can still pull out of it without a problem.”
The contract was sent over by Dreamcatchers. It had gone through the person in charge there before being delivered to Eugene.
As long as there were no problems at LeapCo, the contract would be in the bag.
Eugene said nothing. There was a heavy look of contemplation on his face. After a while, he suppressed his anger.
He did not look at the contract Lee had brought over and stood up instead. He asked coldly, What’s the update on what I asked
you to find out?”
“There’s an internal conflict with the higher management in Vanke. Besides Quentin Emerson, there are a few employees there
who have worked with LeapCo before. Quentin Emerson has been using LeapCo’s name to get other companies to work with
him.”
The look in Eugene’s eyes turned darker. “He made use of LeapCo’s name?”
“Yes.” Lee nodded. “Since leaving LeapCo, he has kept in touch with a few middle

management employees at LeapCo. This time, he approached Sean Yarn from the export department on behalf of
Dreamcatchers.”
Even though Lee had no idea why Eugene had suddenly asked him to look into Quentin Emerson, his investigation shocked
him..
It was quite astounding that a man who had just left LeapCo could have so many connections with LeapCo’s staff.
Eugene did not betray his emotions as he ordered Lee out of the office coldly.
Before he left, Lee hesitated before saying, “Miss Shaw is still waiting for you outside, Mr. Scott.”

It was long past working hours, and before Lee went inside Eugene’s office, Viola asked for his help to tell Eugene that she was
waiting.
Eugene was unmoved. “Get her to go home. I still have work to do.”
However, Lee had just pulled the door open when he bumped into a pitiful–looking Viola.
He paused but said nothing.
Viola looked at Eugene, who was stoically working. She lowered her eyes and bit her lip. Viola took a few steps forward. “You’ve
been really busy recently, Eugene.”
She sounded quite pitiful. Viola could sense that Eugene had been treating her quite coldly. He had been using work as an
excuse every time she wanted to see him.

The more she thought about it, the more unhappy she was, but she did not show it. All Viola did was walk closer to him and tug
on Eugene’s sleeve.
“Just tell me if there’s anything I did that upset you, Eugene. Please don’t ignore me.” Her eyes turned red. “You should be
upfront with me even if you want to break up.”
Eugene paused. After a while, he said impassively, “It has been pretty busy at the office recently.”
Viola hesitated. “Well, you still have to organize a birthday party for me, but it’s fine if you don’t...”
“The time and date have been decided,” Eugene said while taking out a bank card from the drawer. He pushed it to Viola. “Buy
anything you want.”
Viola wanted to say something when she saw the bank card but decided not to. She watched Eugene lower his head as he went
through his documents. She bit her lip and resumed her obedient and docile mannerisms.
She nodded awkwardly and said, “I’ll head home first. My mom is waiting for me.
Eugene did not look up. “Get Lee to see you home.”
Viola agreed, but when Lee walked her downstairs, she rejected his offer to send her home. She took a taxi and left.
Not long after she got into the taxi, she pressed her lips and made a call. The moment her call was picked up, Viola made sure to
adjust her tone as she called out, “Simon.”
