The Unfaithful Mr. Scott novel (Eugene and Melanie)

Chapter 771
Evelyn looked at him and smiled while Eugene's gaze sank slightly. She had
deliberately whispered so that Melanie could not hear what she was saying. She
could only see Evelyn's smile and Eugene's
downcast gaze.
Melanie turned around to go back into the restaurant. She immediately bumped
into Xander, who was coming out.
When the man saw her, he raised a brow and asked, “And here I said I was
coming out to look for you.
“The nighttime scenery at the ancient city is quite pretty. Do you want to go look
around together?”
They immediately went to a palace near the restaurant. Melanie suddenly
realized something and asked, “Where are Reny and the others?”
“They went to a bar,” Xander replied. “There's a pretty popular singer performing
there today.”
Melanie had no interest in crowded places like a bar and followed Xander to the
ancient city.
“Reny said you were in a bad mood. Do you mind telling me about it?”
When Melanie came out just now, Xander had been on a call. Hence, he did not
know that Eugene and Evelyn were also at the restaurant.
Melanie paused for a moment but remained silent. Admittedly, whatever going on
between Howard and Peyton had little to do with her. However, she could not
help but recall what Howard had said about having reasons for not returning to
Jepton.
However, it seemed that his restrictions only applied to her, huh? He could not go
back to Jepton but could come to Prime City. Melanie's expectations of Howard
had long since vanished, but the feeling of being ignored—even though she
realized it belatedly—still made her uncomfortable.
The next morning, Melanie got up and went downstairs. The group had agreed
the previous night to visit a nearby attraction today. The moment she stepped into
the elevator, she received a call from
Howard.
Melanie declined it without hesitation, but he called again soon after. This was
followed by the third and fourth calls. He was determined to keep calling until she
picked up.
Melanie was annoyed. She could not help but associate her thoughts of Howard
with Peyton and Evelyn, as well as Eugene. She declined the call once more and
promptly blocked Howard.
Near the attraction they were visiting was a famous church. Reny dragged Oliver
over to pray while Melanie stayed behind. Instead, she waited outside in a
pavilion.
The church surroundings were filled with candles, and the smell was strong.
Melanie could smell it even while sitting outside. While she was at the gazebo,
her phone rang again. This time, it was from
712
an unknown mumber.
Melanie glanced at the phone and loow it was Howard. He was always persistent
when there was something to gain. She reluctantly answered the call.
Immediately, Howard's irritated voice sounded. “Melanie, you blocked me again?
Do you even remember that I'm your father?”
“If you have nothing important to say, I'm hanging up,” Melanie simply said.
Howard paused for a moment before aslong with obvious restraint, “Where are
you now? I have something very serious to tell you,”

Melanie was taken aback for a
moment but then realized what was
going on. Howard was now closely
associated with Peyton. It made
sense for him to know about Evelyn

The self-deprecating expression on her face grew. She could already guess
what Howard was going to
say next.
