Chapter 767
Melanie found Cedric’s vigilance and wariness laughable. What did her
pregnancy have to do with them anyway?
Evelyn smiled at Melanie meaningfully and then turned to Cedric, Seeing the
obvious displeasure on the man’s face, she smiled and said, “Melanie, we're
quite fated, no? How about I become your child's godmother in the future?”
Evelyn's voice was mocking and sarcastic. Melanie was well aware that she was
intentionally trying to provoke her. Naturally, she had no interest in getting
involved with Evelyn.
Before Melanie could respond, Stella's sharp voice cut in, “Evie, what nonsense
are you spouting? She can only dream of being at your level, but you're trying to
pull her ranking up by force.”
Stella's words were sharp and direct. She did not bother mincing her words.
“Why talk about being a godmother? In the future, you and Eugene should give
me some real grandchildren. Who knows what's in her belly-"
While Melanie could brush off the insults directed at her, hearing Stella talk about
her child in such a tone made her frown. “Madam Hel, I hope you mind your
words.”
Evelyn glanced at her, raising an eyebrow in apparent surprise. Stella sneered.
“Mind my words? Are you afraid I'll say something you don’t want to hear? Don't
tell me you resorted to despicable means to get pregnant with Eugene's child
with hopes of marrying into our family for a better life?
“Melanie, I advise you to give up on that idea. Do you think your child is so
important? The likes of you giving birth to a child is of no interest to us!” Stella
retorted, her words dripping with sarcasm
and disdain.
Melanie tried to suppress the anger boiling inside her but failed. She looked
coldly at Stella. “Madam Hel, if you suffer from delusions, then please seek
treatment. My child has nothing to do with Eugene or your family.”
Her expression and tone were icy, the coldness in her eyes piercing Stella like a
sword. “My child doesn't need your family’s approval. In fact, if my child were to
have a grandmother like you, that would be the beginning of its misfortune.”
“You!” Stella never expected Melanie to retaliate with such harsh words. Her face
turned pale with
anger,
but Melanie had no interest in sparing Stella's feelings. She turned around and
left.
Just a few steps away, she saw Eugene approaching from the other side. He had
his phone in his hand and had probably just gotten off a call.
Her eyes were scathing as she looked at him, her steps pausing slightly as she
coolly reminded him, “ Mr. Scott, I think your mother may have a serious case of
delusions. Perhaps you should take her for a check-up.
Eugene’s brows furrowed, his dark eyes meeting hers. However, Melanie acted
as if she had not

She was infuriated. Perhaps due to the changes to her mindset ever since
becoming pregnant, Melanie always instinctively defended her cald. Her
expression remained grim on the way back to the hotel.
Reny coughed lightly and tried to comfort her. “Don’t be angry. It's not good for
your body now that you're pregnant.”
Melanie gazed at the scenery outside. “I'm not angry,”
At first, Melanie was genuinely angry because of Stella's words. No mother would
willingly tolerate someone speaking ill of her child. However, after calming down,
she felt more regretful about her own lack of strength.
If she had more power, Stella would not have the audacity to insult her child like
that.

Reny just waved her hand and cheerfully said, “It's nothing. Just let me be your
child's godmother in the future. Oh, by the way, have you chosen a name for the
baby?”

Suddenly bringing up the topic of
names, Melanie paused. Although the
baby was already four months old,
she had been so busy before that she
had not thought about the name yet.

She shook her head. “Not yet.”
“Well, how about you think of one now? Even if you haven't decided on a formal
name, you should at least give our little one a nickname, right?”
