Chapter 137
Melanie clutched her phone tightly without saying anything. Dylan thought she was not willing to go
over.
She said anxiously, “I really just want to make something nice for you. I know you’re having a hard time at work, and I shouldn’t have said all those things to you yesterday. Please don’t be mad at me, Mel. I’m really sorry.”
Dylan choked back a sob at the end of the sentence.
Melanie closed her eyes and replied numbly, “I’m at the hospital.”
Dylan was taken aback. “Why are you at the hospital? Do you want me to bring some food over to you?”
Her concern sounded sincere. Melanie paused before replying, “I’m fine.”
“Wait for me, Mel. I’ll come to the hospital right now with Peachie,” Dylan said while packing some things to bring over to the hospital. Melanie heard her moving around through the phone.
After that, Viola’s soft voice sounded from behind Melanie. “Can you accompany me to the waiting room, Eugene?”
Melanie’s lashes fluttered as she looked down and heard Dylan hurriedly packing up some things through the phone again. She was silent for a while before saying slowly, “Give me your address. I’ll go to your place.”
Dylan replied, “Oh! Then I’ll wait for you to come over.”
Melanie could tell that Dylan was delighted, but this did not cheer Melanie up at all.
After all, she had no idea where Dylan stayed until she asked for the address.
Melanie hung up. She turned to see Viola holding on to Eugene’s arm and looking at Melanie thoughtfully.
She pretended not to notice Viola’s stare and said impassively, “I’ll be leaving now. I need to attend to
something.”
“Melanie,” Viola called out to her. “Eugene said we should have lunch together.”
She looked at her phone. Dylan had just sent her the address.
Melanie looked up and rejected the offer softly. “Thanks, but you guys should go ahead.”
