Chapter 281

Melanie looked up and saw that Eugene had already stood up. He was staring at her with a stoic expression.

After a while, she saw him take out his phone and glance at it nonchalantly. “I need you to buy something for me.”

He sounded impassive, and Melanie felt relieved. She did not think that Eugene was helping her out of the situation.

No matter what the reason was, going out was better than staying here.

She did not enjoy the atmosphere and felt like leaving the place.

Unfortunately, Simon said with a devil–may–care attitude, “Trying to give her an excuse to leave?”

Melanie paused. Eugene replied to Simon, “I’m just asking her to get a cake.”

She looked at Eugene. He did not enjoy anything sweet.

Simon looked at Melanie from the corner of his eye. He raised an eyebrow when he heard Eugene’s reply and asked, “Does Viola want cake?”

Eugene said, “Yes.”

Simon turned to look at Melanie tauntingly. He did not hide the disgust in his eyes and said in an insulting tone, “Did you hear that? Eugene is asking you to buy his girlfriend a cake.”

He emphasized the word ‘girlfriend‘ to remind Melanie about it.

“Now that I think about it, Viola is Eugene’s legitimate girlfriend, and you’re just a secretary. It makes sense for you to work for his future wife too.

“Besides, she might be your boss in the future as well.”

Simon added, “Oh, I forgot. You were fired by LeapCo for not being ethical.”

Everyone knew that Melanie had once been lauded as the one who would be marrying into the Scott family.

Simon mentioned Viola on purpose in order to humiliate Melanie.

Melanie clenched her fists as she stared straight at Simon. There was anger in her brown eyes.

Simon did not stop his insults despite the glare. When he saw how obedient Melanie was, he guessed that either Eugene had something on her, or she had something she needed from Eugene.

That was why Simon continued.

He raised an eyebrow. “Am I wrong? You’re pretty thick–skinned to be throwing yourself at men, Melanie. You won’t let Eugene go, and you’re even seducing Xander Solomon on the side. Aren’t you disgusted with yourself?”

Simon snorted. “Stop looking like you’re suffering from something. It’s killing my mood!”

Melanie relaxed her fists. All she felt was detest when she looked at the delight on Simon’s

face.

Why would a human being so awful and full of himself exist in this world?

She gritted her teeth after a while and said in a trembling voice, “I used to only think that you were an arrogant person, but now, I see you’re also a stupid man, a disgusting and stupid man.

“You’re awful and you’re a fool, Simon, you…”

Melanie had no idea how else to describe him at this point. She shut her eyes as she trembled.

She was not made of stone. It was impossible for her not to react when someone was insulting her this way.

Melanie told herself that she had to tolerate this. After all, she had no right to reject Eugene.

She had to endure this.

However, no matter how she tried, her temper still flared. All she felt was anger and

resentment.

Simon’s words chilled Melanie to the bone. They were cold, and they hurt.

His thoughts meant that everyone around Eugene felt the same way.

This probably included Eugene as well.

All of them felt that she was a lowly, shameless woman, and she deserved all of this.

“Didn’t you hear what I said?” Melanie shut her eyes. There was a chill in her heart, and she heard Eugene speak up again without much emotion.

He sounded impassive, and he acted as if he did not hear the conversation between her and Simon. “You have half an hour.”

Eugene wanted her to buy Viola’s cake. No matter how humiliated Melanie was because of Simon, all Eugene cared about was that she did not forget Viola’s cake.
