The Unfaithful Mr. Scott novel (Eugene and Melanie)

Chapter 726
Melanie looked at Eugene when she said that; she was testing him.
The man’s face remained calm. He merely lifted a brow and responded, “Is that
so?"
“Do you know who it is?” Melanie asked back. Seeing as it was someone who
was able to hire Luther as Viola's lawyer and get her to make such remarks
about them, this indicated that the person was someone of significant standing.
Melanie went through the list of people she knew in Oskon City who had
something to do with Eugene but could not think of anyone. Thus, she asked
Eugene himself.
Eugene looked at her, dark eyes deep and serene. A moment passed before he
answered with a slight shift in his gaze, “I don't.”
Melanie fixed her gaze on him but could not catch anything unusual. She bit her
lip and reeled back her gaze.
Zara asked a few more questions, and Melanie answered them one by one. It
was all similar to what was written in the documents.
“Alright, I get the specifics now. I'll look for you if I have any more questions in the
future.” With that said, Zara gave Melanie some program manuals and asked her
to look through them.
After thanking Zara, Melanie was prepared to leave. Just when she was about to
exit through the door, however, Seraphine entered with a letter in her hand. “Miss
Henson, the delivery has been made.”
Without even looking up, the woman answered, “Give it to Mr. Scott.”
Melanie paused, thinking no wonder Eugene was not making a move to leave.
She pursed her lips and
then left.
Back in the office, Zara completed the task at hand before looking up at the man
and adjusting her glasses. “Do you have any more questions, Mr. Scott? If not, I
still have other matters to attend to.”
“Who do you think has the greater chance of winning, Miss Henson? You, or
Luther?”
Zara paused, not expecting him to ask such a question. However, Eugene was
currently a huge client of Navair Law Firm, so despite her doubts, she answered,
“I can’t say I'm 100% confident, but I take all my cases seriously.”
Melanie waited outside for about ten minutes or so before Eugene finally came
out. Melanie pressed her lips together slightly and stood up, walking toward him.
Eugene and slowed down. Melanie immediately asked, “Aren't you supposed to
be in Oskon City? Why are you in Jepton? And here of all places.
Eugene’s dark eyes lowered slightly, but he quickly raised them again after a
second. He looked ahead expressionlessly as he replied, “I came back to sign a
contract. LeapCo is changing law firms.”

“Did you arrange for me to meet Miss Henson?”
She was realizing now how many coincidences there were. Why did Lee call her
that night and specifically ask her to go to LeapCo the next day? Why did she
just so happen to run into Zara when she did?
It was all too coincidental, and when coincidences piled up, they ceased to be
coincidences.
She followed Eugene outside and stopped in front of his car. Emotions surged in
Melanie's heart as she looked up at Eugene. “Eugene, if you arranged this, I'm
very grateful,” she said, tone serious and gaze clear.
Melanie's words were sincere. After all, the best lawyers in Jepton were at Navair
Law Firm, and Zara was among the top. With her help, Melanie felt a bit more at
ease.
Despite the many messy things between her and Eugene, her gratitude toward
him was sincere
at
least when it came to this.
Eugene unlocked the car and glanced at Melanie. His gaze was light, and there
seemed to be some emotion in his eyes that gave him a distant appearance.
After observing Melanie for a moment, he casually averted his gaze and
responded coldly, “You're overthinking.”
Melanie did not say anything. Whether it was Eugene or not, she had said what
she needed to say. She turned around and walked away. Eugene stood where he
was for a moment before getting into the car.
Unbeknownst to either of them, they were being watched by two people who
were at the opposite
store.
Viola's expression was resentful while Luther was cautious. His narrowed gaze
was thoughtful. He tapped his fingers on the table and said, “Looks like they
really went to Zara for this.”
Viola turned to him. “What's wrong, Mr. Laing? Are you not as capable as Zara?
Why did you drag me over as soon as you heard her name?”
Luther's displeasure was evident as he warned, “Miss Shaw, watch your words.”
“I was just joking with you because you seemed nervous, Mr. Laing,” she replied
with a playful tone.
Viola was also feeling frustrated. When she went to see Matthew that day, he did
not hesitate to hire Luther for her. She initially thought Matthew might be
interested in her and wanted him to return to Jepton with her.
She did not expect him to just throw her to Luther and wash his hands of the
matter.
As for Luther, he looked down on her. After they met with Melanie last night, he
even dared to blame her for talking too much. Viola gritted her teeth as she felt
displeasure fill her.

However, she could not express her
frustration too blatantly in front of
Luther, especially since she still
needed him to handle the lawsuit.
Seeing that Luther was on the verge
of losing his temper, Viola could only
smile and say a few perfunctory
words. The content is on

Xander looked at Melanie's now sharper face due to exhaustion and sald with
lowered eyes, " Everyone's too tired lately. Let's all take a good rest during the
new year."
It was only when he mentioned it that Melanie realized there was only a month
left until the festivities. However, it remained to be seen if they could be
celebrated.
Melanie gazed out into the night outside the window, her thoughts slowing down.
“Hey, Melanie!” Yvonne suddenly exclaimed in surprise as she leaned in. “Why
do I feel like your belly is starting to show recently?”
Melanie was stunned and followed Yvonne's gaze to her belly, which was flat and
even looked a bit empty under her coat.
The night proved restless for Melanie. She dreamed of many things—her
grandfather, Dylan, Howard, and even Eugene, whom she had just met earlier
that day.
When she woke up in the morning, there was an urgent knock on her door even
before she was done packing her things. It was Yvonne, and she looked anxious.
She smelled of alcohol and was still wearing her heels.
Gasping for breath, she said to Melanie, “Mel, when I was coming back from the
bar, I heard someone say that a woman jumped off a building at the hospital. The
description sounded a bit like your mom
