The Unfaithful Mr. Scott novel (Eugene and Melanie)

Chapter 765
“Evelyn's voice carried a mocking tone that was hard to hide as she boldly looked
at Melanie. She scoffed. “It'd better not be Eugene's. We're about to get
engaged, and having a child pop up at this point would be quite troublesome.”
Melanie stood silently. Her hand that was holding her phone tightened as she
straightened her back. She watched as Evelyn approached.
Despite being naturally tall, Melanie was slightly overshadowed by Evelyn's
height, especially with her heels on. Evelyn exuded an inherent air of elegance
and refinement. Her gaze was fixed on Melanie as she raised an eyebrow
slightly.
“You know, in families like ours, I can tolerate him having affairs with other
women. But I absolutely can't tolerate the appearance of a child.”
Evelyn paused and glanced at Melanie's belly before calmly retracting her gaze.
She lifted her wine glass and left the balcony.
The distant Christmas lights continued illuminating the night sky, and Melanie felt
a chill running down her spine as she stood alone on the balcony.
She understood Evelyn's warning. Her gaze fell to her flat stomach. It was
miraculous that there was indeed a little life growing inside her.
Her phone vibrated. A message from Yvonne and Reny popped up in the group
chat. Melanie glanced at it and then left the balcony.
As she entered the room, she spotted Xander approaching. His brows were
knitted together, and he had a jacket in hand. He stopped when he saw Melanie.
“It's cold outside. I thought you hadn't come in yet.”
Melanie glanced in a direction not far away, where Evelyn was smiling as she
walked toward Eugene. Initially engaged in conversation with Cedric, Eugene
suddenly turned to look at Evelyn.
Even Cedric’s usually stern and conservative temperament softened upon seeing
Evelyn. Melanie shifted her gaze away and asked Xander, “Do you have anything
planned for later?”
Xander observed the fatigue in her eyes and draped his jacket over her
shoulders. “Nope. I can drive you home.”
The faint scent of lemon on Xander's jacket helped dispel some of the coldness
that Melanie felt.
“Didn't you hear me just now? In a few days, accompany Peyton and Evelyn
back to Prime City. After that, Peyton has some business to attend to in Oskon
City and be there to look out for her.”
Cedric was displeased and glanced at Eugene, who retorted calmly, “I have work
to deal with in the company and have no time for that.”
Seeing that Cedric was about to flare up, Evelyn chimed in, “Mr. Scott, I just saw

there. Didn't you have something to discuss with him? I'll be here with Eugene,”
Cedric glanced warningly at Eugene before saying sternly, “Very well. Since you
young people have something to talk about, I won't interfere, Eugene, be more
like a gentleman!”
As soon as Cedric left, Eugene’s expression turned colder, and despite whatever
Evelyn said, Eugene paid little attention.
A hint of displeasure flashed in Evelyn's lowered eyes. She shut her mouth and
looked where Eugene was staring, seeing Xander draping a coat on Melanie's
shoulder.
She squinted her eyes and chuckled.
Then, she asked, “Do you know Melanie is pregnant?”
Eugene froze, and his expression instantly became colder than before. He finally
glanced at Evelyn, and there was a hint of anger in his dark eyes.
Evelyn raised an eyebrow. “It seems you knew about it long ago.”
She pondered and asked, “Is it yours?”
Eugene's cold eyes remained unchanged as he replied, “You're meddling too
much.”
