Chapter 832
Melanie was surprised that Xander knew how to speak French. Xander asked, “Don’t you know it too?”
“I picked up the language because I wanted to study in France.”
Xander said, “You can still go there.”
“Give me a break. I’ve only just gotten my postgraduate degree, but it would be a good idea to vacation there,” Melanie joked. She believed in learning, but she was not that enthusiastic about studying. Melanie had used most of her time just to get a postgraduate degree.
She said this while smiling. When she turned a corner, she saw Eugene looking stoically at her.
Melanie did not react. However, the smile on her face faltered slightly. She pulled Xander along and walked past Eugene.
Eugene spoke up coldly, “Aren’t you planning to return to Jepton, Melanie?”
Melanie stopped. “It’s none of your business.”
“Aren’t you going to visit your grandfather’s grave?”
The look on Melanie’s face changed. When she made the decision to leave Jepton for Nava, not being able to visit her grandparents‘ grave often was her greatest regret.
She would never have left Jepton if the Scotts had not been so ruthless.
How could Eugene ask this question in front of her with an air of superiority?
Melanie was annoyed. She looked at Eugene with animosity. “Aren’t you the ones responsible for chasing me out of my home and forcing me to hide out in a foreign city?”
“Are you trying to force me out of Nava now that you know I’m here? Where exactly do I need to hide in order never to see you again, Eugene Scott?”
It would be a lie to say that Melanie was not upset and filled with hatred. She had grown up in Jepton but was forced to leave her home for another place far away to protect herself and Merry.
Jepton was where her friends, her career, and the home she grew up in were.
Why did Eugene hate her so much?
She had done nothing wrong to him at all.
If there was something Melanie had done wrong, it would be her delusion of believing that she could be with Eugene.
Now that she was smarter, she knew she should not have feelings for Eugene anymore.
Melanie felt that this was good for
everyone.
She took a deep breath to calm herself down and left along with Xander.
Xander looked deeply at her. He stopped in his footsteps and rubbed her head helplessly. He sounded like he was cajoling her. “Don’t be angry. It’s not worth it to be angry at someone like that.”
Melanie replied, “Alright. I’ll stop being angry.”
“Good,” Xander smiled. He looked up and saw a group of ladies coming over. He said in a low voice, ” Your blind date brigade is here.”
It took a while for Melanie to catch what he meant, and she burst out laughing.
