The Unfaithful Mr. Scott (Melanie and Eugene) novel Chapter 764

Chapter 764 

She beckoned Melanie to spin around and looked at her strangely. “Most pregnant women would gain some weight, so why do you still look so thin?” 

Melanie was slender, and the stress she had been facing recently had taken a toll on her, resulting in weight loss. 

Even though she was four months pregnant, she still appeared surprisingly slim. 

As Liana and Melanie chatted, they moved away from the area. A figure walked out from around the corner shortly after they left. 

Evelyn was still on the phone. As she watched Melanie and Liana leave, she raised an eyebrow with a curl on her lips. 

Just as Melanie headed down the stairs, she spotted Xander waiting near the staircase railing. Liana smiled and said, “Your knight in shining armor is here.” 

Xander turned to Melanie, asking, “I noticed you didn’t seem well earlier. Are you feeling better now?” 

Melanie nodded. “Maybe it’s because it’s a bit stuffy here.” 

“How about we go to the balcony?” 

Melanie thought for a moment and decisively rejected. She was not a fool and knew why Liana insisted on bringing Xander back. 

Tonight, Xavier was fully immersed in socializing alongside his father. He looked more like the Solomon family’s legitimate son than Xander. 

She said, “Go ahead with what you were doing. I’ll be fine alone.” 

Observing her silently, Xander handed her a small gift box. “Grandma likes you a lot. This is for you.” 

It looked like a jewelry box, and Melanie frowned slightly. “Please thank Her for me, but I can’t accept 

this.” 

Looking at her, Xander, with his charming eyes fixed on her, said, “Alright. I’ll thank her for you.” 

He placed the tiny box into Melanie’s hand. 

“I need to attend to something. Call me if you don’t feel well and I’ll take you home.” Without giving Melanie a chance to respond, he turned and left. 

Melanie watched as Xander left hastily. She held the warm box in her hand. After a moment, she lowered her gaze and kept it in her bag. 

The balcony was slightly colder than indoors, but the air was fresher. Melanie stood on the balcony, tightening her coat.

In the distance, fireworks lit up the night sky. Melanie took out her phone, intending to capture the moment when the balcony door was pushed open again. 

Turning around, she was surprised to see Evelyn standing by the door. She was holding a glass of red wine. Despite the winter chill, Evelyn was only wearing a black evening gown. She was seemingly unaffected by the cold.
