The Unfaithful Mr. Scott (Melanie and Eugene) novel Chapter 771

Chapter 771 

Evelyn looked at him and smiled while Eugene’s gaze sank slightly. She had deliberately whispered so that Melanie could not hear what she was saying. She could only see Evelyn’s smile and Eugene’s 

downcast gaze. 

Melanie turned around to go back into the restaurant. She immediately bumped into Xander, who was coming out. 

When the man saw her, he raised a brow and asked, “And here I said I was coming out to look for you. 

“The nighttime scenery at the ancient city is quite pretty. Do you want to go look around together?” 

They immediately went to a palace near the restaurant. Melanie suddenly realized something and asked, “Where are Reny and the others?” 

“They went to a bar,” Xander replied. “There’s a pretty popular singer performing there today.” 

Melanie had no interest in crowded places like a bar and followed Xander to the ancient city. 

“Reny said you were in a bad mood. Do you mind telling me about it?” 

When Melanie came out just now, Xander had been on a call. Hence, he did not know that Eugene and Evelyn were also at the restaurant. 

Melanie paused for a moment but remained silent. Admittedly, whatever going on between Howard and Peyton had little to do with her. However, she could not help but recall what Howard had said about having reasons for not returning to Jepton. 

However, it seemed that his restrictions only applied to her, huh? He could not go back to Jepton but could come to Prime City. Melanie’s expectations of Howard had long since vanished, but the feeling of being ignored–even though she realized it belatedly–still made her uncomfortable. 

The next morning, Melanie got up and went downstairs. The group had agreed the previous night to visit a nearby attraction today. The moment she stepped into the elevator, she received a call from 

Howard. 

Melanie declined it without hesitation, but he called again soon after. This was followed by the third and fourth calls. He was determined to keep calling until she picked up. 

Melanie was annoyed. She could not help but associate her thoughts of Howard with Peyton and Evelyn, as well as Eugene. She declined the call once more and promptly blocked Howard. 

Near the attraction they were visiting was a famous church. Reny dragged Oliver over to pray while Melanie stayed behind. Instead, she waited outside in a pavilion. 

The church surroundings were filled with candles, and the smell was strong. Melanie could smell it even while sitting outside. While she was at the gazebo, her phone rang again. This time, it was from

an unknown mumber. 

Melanie glanced at the phone and loow it was Howard. He was always persistent when there was something to gain. She reluctantly answered the call. Immediately, Howard’s irritated voice sounded. “Melanie, you blocked me again? Do you even remember that I’m your father?”
