The Unfaithful Mr. Scott (Melanie and Eugene) novel Chapter 664

Chapter 664 

Melanie had nothing to talk to Eugene about apart from work. 

She looked outside the window, thinking about the time it would take to reach the hotel. 

Soon, when they were about to reach the hotel, Lee received a call. He looked stern as he glanced at Eugene through the rearview mirror. “Mr. Walsh’s secretary wants to make an appointment to have a meal with you. He wants to talk about the contract.” 

He sounded worried as he glanced at Melanie. 

After all, Sam had probably gotten in trouble, and he wanted to discuss the contract at this time. It was probably not a good thing. 

Melanie sensed Lee’s gaze. She looked back at him and said, “I can get out of the car if you pull over by the roadside.” 

Before thinking twice, Lee said, “Your father might be there.” 

Melanie was startled. Howard? 

She was in a trance as she recalled Howard stopping Eugene from meeting an important client. With a frown, she looked at Eugene. 

Eugene looked slightly irritated, but he hid his emotion when his eyes met Melanie’s. 

He said indifferently, “Pull over the car up ahead.” 

Melanie sensed something was off. 

Before Lee could say anything, Melanie asked, “Is Howard still giving you trouble?” 

Melanie knew how shameless Howard could be. She would not doubt it if she was told that Howard was trying to make things difficult for Eugene. 

However, Eugene said nothing and lifted his eyebrow. “Are you afraid I might hurt him?” 

She was in a puzzle as she looked at Eugene. “What did Howard do?” 

Eugene answered her indifferently, “He’s just using some despicable means.” 

She closed her eyes and clenched her fist. “Did it affect your business?” 

Lee glanced at them and saw Eugene looking outside the window. He did not seem like he wanted to talk about it. He cleared his throat and explained things to Melanie. 

“Howard is spreading rumors about Mr. Scott bullying others. He’s saying Mr. Scott forced himself on his daughter and is being irresponsible. He’s accusing Mr. Scott of being a scumbag. 

“Most importantly, Howard seems to know many people. With these rumors going around, things have been bad for Mr. Scott and LeapCo’s reputation…”

Lee had not finished his words, but Melanie understood what was happening. 

Although capability and finance came first in the business industry, a bad reputation could ruin a person’s connections. Others might not choose to cooperate with that person’s company anymore.
