Chapter 179
Melanie chose not to respond to Simon’s words. The car was quite dim, and she found some comfort in looking out the window.
Simon also fell silent and leaned back in his seat, playing with his phone. He was typing very fast, and
occasionally, Melanie could hear him chuckle carelessly.
He suddenly looked up and casually said to Eugene, “Eugene, you can drop me off at Times Square? I have something to do.”
Eugene glanced at him through the rearview mirror. “Am I your chauffeur?”
“No, I just happen to have a date with someone,” Simon spoke while opening the voice message from the internet–famous celebrity he had just arranged to meet.
A sweet voice immediately came from his phone, “Simon, when are you coming?”
It was well–known that Simon loved to play around. Eugene stopped the car at the next intersection and calmly reminded him, “Don’t cause unnecessary trouble, like what happened with Skylar.”
“I’m not that careless,” Simon replied before opening the door and getting out.
The cold wind blew the drizzle onto Melanie’s face as soon as the door opened.
She knew who Skylar was. He was another playboy in the circle who loved to date young models. Recently, one of the internet -famous women he was with got pregnant and caused a big fuss when she insisted on marrying him.
Skylar was unwilling to marry her, and she ended up jumping off a building. The incident caused a huge uproar, so Skylar’s family had to force him into marriage.
Melanie looked up. Even in the dim light, Eugene’s profile appeared somewhat indifferent. However, she quickly averted her gaze.
Melanie heard Viola call out to her and looked at her. She could not actually see her expression clearly and could only vaguely make out a silhouette. Viola paused before continuing, “Melanie, I have a question, but I don’t know if I should ask.”
She sounded genuinely troubled and also a little innocent. After a moment’s silence, Melanie replied, “What is it?”
She added, “I don’t mean anything by it. If you’re not comfortable sharing, just pretend I didn’t ask, okay?”
