The Unfaithful Mr. Scott (Melanie and Eugene) novel Chapter 293

Chapter 293 

Despite his gentle demeanor, there was no mistaking the mockery in his voice. 

Melanie looked at him. No matter how calm her expression was, she could not hide the disgust 

in her eyes. 

However, Quentin acted as if he did not see it. Or rather, he was deliberately trying to repulse Melanie. He smiled and said, “If you have nowhere to go now, I may able to take you in.” 

The people in charge of the department had long left. Now, only Xander, Lisa, and Quentin were left in the conference room. 

Quentin glanced at Xander, his attitude arrogant, but his gaze went to Melanie. “You might want to think about it. My door is always open to you.” 

He paused for a moment before saying, “After all, you know that I’ve always admired you.” 

However, he deliberately emphasized the word “admired“, hinting at something more. 

The coldness in Melanie’s eyes intensified. She scoffed. “Spare me the thought.” 

To be honest, even Melanie felt a little annoyed to see Quentin here today. 

Quentin was her first boss, back when she was a fresh–faced rookie. At the time, Quentin acted like a caring senior and even took her on a few business rounds. 

At that time, Eugene was busy, and Melanie could not turn to him for everything. Since Quentin helped her, she naturally thought he was a good person. She had even praised him to Eugene. 

Then, on a business trip, Quentin had snuck into her room in the middle of the night. 

After that, Melanie realized that Quentin was only so welcoming to newbies because of his ulterior motives. From then on, every “unintentional” touch of his repulsed her. 

However, he did not back off even after Melanie warned him. Instead, he became even more aggressive. 

Fortunately, one day, Eugene bumped into him when he came to fetch her home. Only then did Quentin stop his advances. 

However, he started to make things difficult for Melanie at work instead. He threw all kinds of difficult clients to her, saying that he was training her up. 

Melanie had once overheard him say to a supervisor in the department, “So what if she’s sleeping with Mr. Scott? He’ll get tired of her once he’s had his fun. She’s just a slut. pretending to be oh–so–holy.” 

Many times later, Melanie had inadvertently seen Quentin use the same method on other new interns. Some of the interns had left, while others stayed. No one knew the truth. 

Later, Melanie was transferred to another department, and Quentin was fired because he messed up. She thought she would never see him again in her life. 

“Melanie, you should be honored that I still think so highly of you.” Quentin adjusted his glasses, his gentlemanly mask slipping.

“Mr. Emerson, I don’t appreciate how you’re trying to poach my employee right in front of me,” Xander said before Melanie could speak. His handsome face was cold and authoritative. 

Quentin sized up Xander, then looked at Melanie. A malicious smile appeared on his lips.
