Still, she felt a little uneasy after having accidentally discovered that Eugene had arranged a medical check–up for Melanie. When she asked him about it, he just said that it was an exit examination since she was resigning.
When she enquired with other employees, however, they told her that there was no such thing as an exit examination at LeapCo. With these thoughts in mind, she could not help but look at Eugene with a hint of resentment.

Her grandfather had praised Eugene so many times in front of her in the past, but now it was revealed that this was what Eugene truly felt. She had hoped that there would still be a slight sense of sincerity within the man.
No longer wanting to discuss these things with him, Melanie only paused for a moment before asking, “So what exactly do you want?”
“Nothing. I just hope you don’t forget about the medical check–up tomorrow,” Eugene
