Chapter 758
Upon receiving the answer, Melanie remained silent and simply stood quietly beside Eugene.
She was wearing a fluffy coat, and the white fur made her face look even more delicate and petite.
However, there was nowhere to hide from the snow. Although it was a light snowfall, it still felt cold
when it landed on her head.
She pulled up the collar of her coat.
Eugene glanced at her and then looked at his phone again. He said softly, “Lee will take a while to
arrive. Let’s wait for him inside.”
The snow was getting heavier, and Melanie was sensitive to the cold to begin with. Nodding, she began walking back home.
Although there was no indoor central heating or air conditioning, Melanie had brought two heaters back. They were already turned on. As soon as she entered, warmth enveloped her instantly.
At this moment, she noticed how pale Eugene’s face was. It was almost colorless.
Melanie glanced at him, and she knew the reason without having to think about it.
Eugene would inevitably be persuaded to drink more at business dinners, which would always upset
his stomach.
However, she did not ask him about it and did her own things.
Right then, she heard him speak.
“Can you pour me a cup of water?” Eugene spoke, his voice low and hoarse. It was as if he was forcibly
suppressing something.
Melanie froze for a moment before going to the kitchen to pour a cup of warm water. She placed it in
front of him.
She said, “Lee should take you to the hospital. I can pick up the documents myself.”
Eugene picked up the cup of hot water and rubbed his fingers on the surface. “This place is on the way
to the hotel, so it’s fine.”
Since Eugene felt it was not troublesome, Melanie did not say more. However, with nothing else to do, she could only hug a pillow and focus on watching TV. She tried to ignore Eugene’s presence.
Lee arrived half an hour later, sweating profusely despite the cold weather.
He gasped for breath and said, “Melanie, the pharmacies are so far from your place!”
He wiped the sweat off his forehead. “I had to go to a few before finding one that was still open, but the pills sold there aren’t the same as the ones Mr. Scott usually takes. The pharmacist said they only had this brand of pills, and they should be taken after meals.”

He placed the medicine box in front of Eugene.
Some pharmacies would close for Christmas. Seeing Lee sweating so much, Eugene did not say anything.
He nodded and picked up the medicine box to scrutinize it.
Eugene had a weak immune system, and some medications could cause allergies, so he had to be extra careful when taking them.
Melanie waited for Lee to catch his breath before asking, “What about the documents you were supposed to give me?”
