The Unfaithful Mr. Scott (Melanie and Eugene) novel Chapter 795

Chapter 795 

Just as she said that, steady footsteps approached them from behind. 

Melanie did not want to turn around, but there was that familiar smell of pine in the air. Melanie’s sense of smell was exceptionally sensitive during her pregnancy, 

A shadow fell over her. Eugene looked down at Melanie, his initially calm eyes rippling like the surface of a pond after a single stone was tossed into it. 

However, the faint ripples quickly faded again. 

“I was just telling Melanie I’m here to buy something for the engagement, and here you are. Right on cue.” Evelyn’s amused chirp interrupted Eugene’s thoughts. 

Only then did he look up. His gaze was indifferent, and his tone was emotionless. “If you’re done with your shopping, I’ll get Lee to send you back. I still have work to deal with at the company.” 

Just then, Lee approached them with a briefcase in hand. It showed that Eugene had probably just finished a meeting with a client. 

Evelyn’s expression stiffened. Her chest heaved as if she was holding back some emotion. She practically gritted her teeth and said, “I can’t possibly buy everything so quickly. Our engagement only happens once in a lifetime, so we have to be really care with the things we choose. 

“Besides, aren’t you going to pick them out with me? After all, the two of us are getting engaged. I want to take this seriously.” 

Without giving Eugene à chance to speak, she turned back to Melanie. “By the way, Melanie, your father came to Jepton looking for you earlier. Did you see him?”

Evelyn let out a half–sigh. “Come to think of it, it was my mother who bought your father the plane ticket.” 

She worded it vaguely, but once she mentioned Peyton, Melanie understood what she meant. 

She wanted to use Howard’s devotion to Peyton to mock her. 

Melanie looked up at her calmly. “Looks like Howard and your mother are getting along nicely. Are you going to call him Dad soon? In that case, congratulations in advance.” 

Their eyes met and they held each other’s gazes for three seconds. Finally, Melanie looked away indifferently and said softly, “I’m not in the mood to eat anymore. Let’s go back.” 

Evelyn looked at Melanie, her expression contorting with anger for a moment as Melanie casually 

turned to leave. 

Evelyn watched her leave, her manicured nails digging deep into her palms. 

She still could not accept Howard and Peyton’s relationship. She had only brought it up to mock Melanie, but unexpectedly, Melanie did not seem to care at all.

Evelyn could not help but look up at Eugene, only to realize that he had already walked away. Only Lee was left standing where he was, looking at her respectfully. “Miss Shue, I’ll take you back to the Scotts ‘ residence.” 

Meanwhile, Melanie and Yvonne left the building. Neither of them had any appetite left. 

Yvonne told Melanie to wait for her outside while she brought the car out from the basement. As soon as she left, however, another figure approached Melanie. 

Eugene frowned slightly. He stopped in front of Melanie and said in a low voice, “Melanie.” 

Melanie lifted her eyelids. Her eyes were cold.
