Chapter 182
Stephen and his mom looked very similar. Both of them had a gentle look in their eyes.
Melanie was surprised to see Stella there as well.
Stella was taken aback to see Melanie, and she placed the cup in her hand on the table before saying with annoyance,
“What are you doing here?”
Melanie had no idea she would bump into Stella. She said, “I’m here to pick up a document for a friend.”
Madam York nodded. “Stephen informed me about it. You’re here for Xander’s document, right?”
“Yes. He needs it urgently. I’m sorry if I’ve disturbed you,” said Melanie.
Madam York was a university professor. She was gentle and gracious by nature and was very soft- spoken during her conversation with Melanie.
“The document is in the study. I’ll get it for you.” Madam York waved over a domestic helper to pour
Melanie a cup of tea before heading toward the study.
Melanie was unable to reject the friendly offer and sat down to take a sip.
She had just put her cup down when she heard Stella say sarcastically, “I see you have a close relationship with the Yorks.”
Melanie replied, “I’m only here to pick up something.”
Stella grunted coldly, but Melanie was unsure what she meant by that.
Melanie was not a talkative person. She used to rack up her brains for a conversation topic in order to get into Stella’s good graces.
However, all she did now was sit silently. She was no longer willing to try to get Stella to like her.
Madam York soon appeared with the document. She passed it to Melanie. “Is this what you were looking for?”
Melanie flipped through it and nodded. “Thank you.”
Madam York smiled. She had always been nice and gracious.
She was reminded of Xander and what Stephen had told her. Madam York could not help asking
Melanie, “Stephen told me that you’re in the midst of working with Xander on a project?”
