The Unfaithful Mr. Scott ( Melanie Smith )
The Unfaithful Mr. Scott ( Mela5nie Smith ) Chapter 289

Chapter 289

Eugene’s tone was frosty. Melanie pressed her lips and said nothing as she dragged Dylan out of there.

It was the company’s working hours. Viola, Julie, and Lee were present.

News of Dylan coming to see Eugene had spread quickly throughout the office. Viola smiled when she saw Melanie dragging Dylan out. She looked at Melanie. “Melanie, this is a place of work, after all. I think it’s best that you talk to your mother and make sure she doesn’t barge in like this again.”

There was no need for Viola to be putting up pretenses in front of Melanie anymore. There was a sarcastic smile on her face. “Fortunately, it was Mr. Scott and I who bumped into her. Otherwise, the security guards would’ve thrown her out, and that would’ve been quite humiliating.”

Melanie felt uncomfortable with Viola’s words, but she was not in the mood to say anything to her.

Her swollen arm continued gripping Dylan, and the pain slowly spread upward.

Unfortunately, Dylan continued stirring up trouble. Melanie had a grip on her arm, but Dylan still managed to say to Viola, “That’s true. It’s all thanks to you that I managed to get inside, Viola.”

The disgusted look in Viola’s eyes got deeper, but she quickly hid it and smiled. “You should come along with Melanie the next time you’re here. She’s been with the company for a long time, after all, and many of us know her. No one would stop you from coming in.‘

“Am I right, Melanie?”

Viola asked Melanie after she was done talking.

Melanie ignored her.

Viola was right. Melanie had been working at LeapCo for many years, and a lot of people here know her.

However, she had now left the company. LeapCo rules stated that non–employees were not allowed inside the company.

Viola made it sound grand, but all she wanted was for Melanie to come here with Dylan to be humiliated.

She was looking forward to witnessing this, and Dylan had taken her advice seriously.

No emotions were shown on Melanie’s face as she looked at Viola and said coldly, “Haven’t you learned to do more and speak less after being a secretary here for so long?”

Melanie dragged Dylan out after saying this to Viola.

Viola was standing not far from where they were. Melanie bumped into her shoulder while on her way out.

This made Viola stumble a few steps back. She stared unhappily at Melanie, who was walking

away.

Chapter 229

Who did she think she was?

Melanie was now the laughingstock of the company. She had no right to still be sitting on her high horse.

While in the elevator, Melanie was in a daze as it went down.

She had thought of multiple scenarios of how she would leave LeapCo, and none of them involved coming over to drag Dylan away. It felt like she was being kicked out of here, and it was humiliating.

Many people came and went while Melanie was on her way down in the elevator. They cast strange looks at them when they noticed Melanie’s grip on Dylan.

Melanie did not seem to notice. She pulled Dylan out of the elevator immediately the moment they arrived on the first floor.

The heavy rain showed no signs of stopping. Melanie could feel the raindrops on her face as the wind galed at her while she stood in the corridor.

She took a deep breath and flung Dylan’s hand away. Melanie said stoically, “Wait here. I’m getting the car.”

Melanie did not want to argue with Dylan at the company. Too many people had witnessed Melanie’s humiliation here.

She was physically and mentally exhausted. She would have broken down if she did not forcefully pull herself together.

Melanie did not expect Dylan to be a reliable factor in her life. However, it never occurred to her that Dylan would actually come to see Eugene and demand money from him in a matter–of -fact manner.

She allowed the rain to hit her face. She found no point in avoiding the rain. It was helping her sober up slightly anyway.

Dylan had not said anything to Melanie since Melanie’s appearance, but now, she suddenly questioned unhappily, “What are you doing here?”
