The Unfaithful Mr. Scott (Melanie and Eugene) novel Chapter 605

Chapter 605 

Melanie looked through the terms again. She had only been focusing on the terms related to Burning Star Studio previously and did not notice the amended terms had affected LeapCo more. 

Two of the terms would bring LeapCo into a disadvantageous state. 

Melanie flipped through all the pages seriously. She looked more worried than just now. “Why is Matthew doing this? Isn’t LeapCo his business partner?” 

Eugene calmly answered, “He just wants the greatest benefit for himself.” 

Melanie said nothing more. Doing business was indeed about getting the greatest benefit. The benefits of others had nothing to do with businessmen. 

Then, she asked Eugene, “LeapCo and Burning Star Studio’s profits are tied. If LeapCo is being restricted, Burning Star Studio won’t gain any benefit from it, right?” 

Eugene asked her, “What do you think?” 

Melanie looked through the document in detail, and her expression turned gloomier. It was because the amendment to the document did not only affect the two companies. It would also affect places like Jepton, Jelson, and Niere City. 

As Melanie kept the document, she said, “Looks like this trip to Oskon City might not go as smoothly 

as expected.” 

Eugene asked, “Are you afraid?” 

After pondering, Melanie looked at Eugene. Although she was worried, she looked far from it. “Why would I be afraid if you aren’t?” 

Compared to Burning Star Studio, LeapCo was more restricted. Eugene did not seem worried about it. In that case, Melanie felt she had nothing to worry about. 

After all, the best choice was indeed LeapCo. However, Burning Star Studio could look for some other 

investors, too. 

With a scoff, Eugene interrupted Melanie’s thought. Eugene seemed to have seen through her thoughts. “Are you planning to get another investor before anything is even decided?” 

Melanie did not deny it. “I’m just thinking of a backup plan.” 

Eugene chuckled. “Are you or Burning Star Studio the one being insincere now?” 

Melanie calmly replied, “Let’s hope we don’t have to carry out the backup plan.” 

Eugene lifted his eyebrow and said nothing as he turned around to leave. 

Just as he stepped out, he stopped. Then, he turned around and took the wine Hugh forgot to take away, along with the glasses. He placed them in the paper bag on the table. 

Eugene said, “Don’t you know you shouldn’t drink during pregnancy?” 

Melanie followed him to the door when she saw him taking the wine away. 

Just as she walked out, Melanie saw a man in a gray hoodie and a cap staring at them. 

Melanie was sensitive to her surroundings and looked at the man. Her eyes happened to meet his. 

The man did not expect Melanie to look over and looked at his phone, flustered. 

Melanie thought the man was a passerby and did not think much about it.
