Chapter 647
His tone was uncertain, and he waited patiently for her answer.
Melanie was a little hesitant. She looked at the hospitalization bracelet on her wrist. The doctor said that it would be best for her to stay in the hospital for a couple of days to recuperate before being discharged. Eugene had already completed the hospitalization procedures for her.
There was also the matter of Redwaves and Howard, who was like a time bomb. Everything was in a mess. She did not know how to tell Xander.
She was the one who had done nothing wrong.
It was Xander himself who sensed that something was wrong. His tone was a little more patient as he asked Melanie in a low voice, “Did something happen?”
Melanie sighed. “Xander, I seem to have let you down.”
She told Xander briefly about Harvey, Viola, and Howard, but she kept the fact that she was in the hospital a secret. It was as if she was deliberately making excuses for herself.
Xander was surprised to hear that Viola had become Harvey’s assistant. She still seemed to hold a grudge against Melanie, too.
He pondered for a moment before comforting her. “Don’t worry too much. Viola is just an assistant, so she can’t interfere too much. As for your father and Mathew, hopefully you’re just overthinking
things.
“Either way, it doesn’t matter. I’m flying in tomorrow morning. We’ll talk about it when I get here. Get some rest tonight.”
Xander’s voice was low and magnetic. When he spoke slowly like this, it was very comforting.
Melanie nodded. She also knew that it was useless to think too much, but she could not help but worry about whether she would cause trouble for Xander.
It had always been Melanie’s habit since she was a child. She was always afraid of causing trouble to
others.
Xander said softly, “You’re so anxious that it makes me feel like I’m being too harsh on you. Why don’t I get Reny to make you a guide to the touristy sites around Oskon City so you can relax first?”
Melanie could hear the deliberate teasing in his tone. She bit back a smile. “Okay, sure. We can go to those places together when you get here and check out those places in advance. That way, we can plan the team–building exercises and-”
Halfway through her sentence, the door of the ward suddenly opened. Eugene walked in expressionlessly with two bottles of water in his hand. After placing them on the table, he said coldly to Melanie, “Do you want to take a shower or just wash up simply?”

Melanie’s eyes widened and she quickly cut off the call with Xander before asking, Eugene, “Don’t you knock before you come in?”
Eugene glanced at her phone, his lips curling up mockingly. “Am I disturbing you?”
Melanie did not know what he was so upset about. She held the phone and suppressed her anger, ” We’re done eating. You can leave now.”
Eugene’s face was expressionless. “The doctor said it’s best if you have someone to accompany you right now. We don’t want anything to happen while no one else is around.”
Melanie frowned. “I’ll ring for a nurse if that happens.”
