The Unfaithful Mr. Scott (Melanie and Eugene) novel Chapter 431

Chapter 431 

“This was given to us earlier by Blue Inc. There are a few terms in there that don’t seem right, but I can’t put my finger on it. It feels like the words have been twisted.” 

Oliver took out his phone to show Melanie the pictures he took of the contract, “I marked them down.” 

Melanie was silent for a moment. “You can just show me the contract directly.” 

Oliver smacked himself on the head. “Why didn’t I think of that? I was thinking of emailing this to you because you weren’t coming back.” 

He headed upstairs to get the contract after that. 

Xander said in a soft voice, “You should have breakfast first. Milk or coffee?” 

Oliver soon came downstairs with the contract. Before he could show it to Melanie, Xander stopped him. “Let’s finish breakfast first.” 

Melanie’s phone rang right after they had breakfast. 

It was Lee. 

Melanie felt her heart skip a beat when she saw the name on her phone. 

She looked down for a while before picking up the call. Lee was quite polite. “It’s me, Melanie.” 

“What do you want?” She sounded a little brusque because she was unhappy about what happened yesterday, 

Lee was taken aback. “We need you to come over to LeapCo for a meeting later. We need an update on the progress and to resolve some issues with the materials and location.” 

LeapCo was the main investor in this joint venture, and they had the right to evaluate the project. 

Melanie agreed coldly and hung up immediately. 

She was reminded of Eugene at the mention of LeapCo, 

It always upset her at the thought of him. 

Xander asked, “Was that call from LeapCo?” 

The annoyed look on Melanie’s face softened slightly. “They want to have a meeting to talk about the materials.” 

“These corporations are annoying. They know nothing about the project and love having meetings all the time to give useless suggestions,” Oliver said unhappily. 

Melanie was silent. She was going through a lot of emotions. After a while, she said grimly, I’ll attend the meeting. You should continue with your work. I’ll deal with LeapCo.” 

Even though she did not want to go to LeapCo again and was reluctant to have anything to do with Eugene, this was still her job. 

She should do what was required of her, and there was no reason to push it.

Melanie could not give up her job because of this. 

It was not worth it. 

Xander was about to say something when Oliver spoke up, “That’s just as well. We need to work on coordinating the route and the lighting issue.” 

Melanie nodded. She took the document over from Oliver and kept it. “I’ll take a look at it when I’m back.” 

Xander was frowning, and he looked at Melanie with his deep eyes. His long eyelashes were lowered, and a vague shadow of it was on his face. 

Something seemed to be on his mind. 

Melanie rushed to LeapCo and headed into the meeting room immediately. 

She pushed open the door, only to see Eugene sitting in the main seat with his eyes lowered. 

Melanie had returned to Hearth City the night before. She had no idea that Eugene and the 

others were back as well. 

She pressed her lips. It would be a lie if she said she felt nothing. She had just had it out with Eugene yesterday. When she saw him again, her emotions began flowing out once more. 

Melanie did not have enough time to work on holding back those strong emotions. She was about to take her seat when Eugene looked up at her. 

There was a frosty look in his dark eyes as his judging and intimidating gaze fell on Melanie. He spoke stoically, “You’re a minute late. You don’t need to be here if you’re late again next time.”
