The Unfaithful Mr. Scott ( Melanie Smith )
Chapter 782

Chapter 782

Why would you make yourself suffer this way? You’re an adult now. Can you grow a brain and leave some dignity for yourself?”

“Don’t think that you can marry successfully into the Scotts just because you’re pregnant. I’ll be honest with you. The Scotts don’t like you at all! If you continue to be this way and keep getting involved with Eugene Scott, you’ll just end up being miserable

Howard’s words successfully made Melanie stop in her footsteps.

She turned back to look at Howard with a cold look on her face. There was a distant and frosty look in

her eves

Howard’s chest tightened at the sight of her staring back at him. He realized he had just revealed what was really on his mind.

He pulled himself together and calmed down. He wanted to comfort Melanie, but before he could say another word, Melanie spoke up coldly, “Are you here to tell me all of this because of Peyton Turner

and Evelyn Shue?

“You said I should take a good look at myself and I would end up being miserable if I didn’t do so, right? Let me ask you this.

“Does Peyton Turner know that you have a wife in Oskon City? Does she know how low you can go just to get into her good graces? Are you about to abandon your wife and children once again?”

Melanie sounded calm. Howard’s words had reminded her of his relationship with Peyton. She

understood the reason why Howard was here to see her.

This was probably an attempt from him to earn some brownie points with Peyton. He was making use of Melanie to give Peyton and Evelyn a good impression of him.

Melanie had exposed Howard’s intentions, and he was enraged by it. “What nonsense are you talking

about?”

She glanced coldly at him. “You know very well what I’m talking about. I’m just trying to remind you not to rely on a woman’s money too much. Otherwise, you’ll forget what it’s like to have self- respect!”

Melanie turned away after that. She took a few steps forward before suddenly remembering something. She looked back at Howard with her chin slightly lowered and said to him, “Also, tell Evelyn Shue to stop being so dramatic. She can marry whoever she wants to. Tell her that I have nothing to do with Eugene Scott or the Scotts.”

She left Howard behind and headed to the bank. While she was waiting in the bank, she kept feeling the baby moving inside of her. She wondered if it was a result of her being working too much recently.

It was a strange feeling.

This strange feeling made her anxious, and this continued until nighttime. Reny blinked and

reminded her, “When are you going to collect your report? Didn’t you just have a screening test for Down syndrome?”

Xander had just walked out of the kitchen with a bowl of warm chowder for Melanie. He looked at her tenderly and said in a soft voice, “I’m free tomorrow. I can accompany you to the hospital.”

Reny quietly left the room to give them some privacy.

Melanie looked up and met Xander’s bright eyes.

The test screening for Down syndrome was mandatory. Melanie had taken the test before she left for Prime City. It was the right time to collect the report.

It was a lousy coincidence that a huge bus with LeapCo’s logo was parked outside the hospital. Their employees must be here for a company medical check–up

Melanie turned away after giving it a glance. She headed straight for her doctor’s office.

She had been visiting this doctor since she found out she was pregnant.

When Melanie entered the office, the doctor gave her a report with a serious look on her face. She checked the information several times before handing it to Melanie hesitantly.

“I hope you’re prepared for what I’m about to tell you, Miss Smith.”

The doctor paused before looking at Melanie to say, “Your results aren’t positive. There’s a high chance that your baby might be malformed.”

Melanie looked at the data on the report. They were simple numbers, but she could not digest any of them when put together.

The doctor reminded her, “In such situations, our hospital would suggest an induced labor as soon as possible. Let us know the earliest time you can come to the hospital for the surgery.
