Chapter 748
As soon as Melanie returned to the villa, Yvonne shoved her into the bathroom. “Hurry up and take a shower before you catch a cold. If you fall sick, Xander and Stephen will never let me hear the end of
it.”
Melanie did not resist, letting out a sigh of satisfaction when the warm water drenched her body.
When she came out of the shower, Yvonne was sitting on the sofa scrolling through her phone.” Good, you’re done. Is there anywhere you want to go? Reny asked me for new year holiday destinations in the group.”
Melanie blinked. “Are you guys going on a trip?”
Yvonne looked at her. “Didn’t we all decide to go on holiday together during the new year?”
Melanie had completely forgotten about that. She had been busy with work and then with the court case. Plus, no one had mentioned it during her time in the hospital.
“Prime City sounds good,” she said. “The weather would be nicer there.”
“Then I’ll mention it to Reny and we can vote on it.” Yvonne did not look up from her phone.

While Melanie was hospitalized, Xander took over her responsibilities. Now that she was back, she should pick up the slack again.

Melanie’s eyebrows twitched. She had a bad feeling about this.
After hesitating for a moment, she picked up the call. Matthew’s voice was soft across the speakers. “I heard you were discharged from the hospital.”
Melanie clenched her hands and tried to keep her voice steady. “How did you
know?”
Matthew did not answer. He stopped for a moment before saying, “You’re a little smarter than I thought.”
Melanie did not respond. She was waiting for Matthew to continue.
Sure enough, Matthew’s cold drawl kept going. “Since you’re so smart, I’m sure you already know.” That was all Melanie had to hear. She asked in a low voice, “Why did you help Viola?”
“She’s too stupid for my liking,” Matthew replied nonchalantly.
“Melanie.” His tone did not change. It was as if he was talking about nothing important in particular.
“Let’s make a deal.”
Eugene went straight to GT Bar after the meeting at the headquarters. Simon sat in the corner and raised his glass to him from afar. “You’re finally here, you busy bee. I practically had to beg you to
