The Unfaithful Mr. Scott

Chapter 86 Melanie felt a slight pain on her lips and tongue, and she later tasted blood. The comer of her lips was bitten hard. Eugene’s grip relaxed, and Melanie turned slightly away from him.

Her sudden movement caused her pajamas to fall loosely around her, revealing her collarbone and exposing a huge patch of her fair skin.

Eugene lowered his eyes to look at her. A sarcastic smile appeared on his lips, and his tone became nonchalant once more. He sniggered. “What's wrong? Angry that | didn’t acknowledge you as my girlfriend?”

Before Melanie could reply, he let her go. Eugene returned to sit on the sofa and asked her with a flat expression, “When have | ever said that you were my girlfriend?

“You overestimate yourself, Melanie Smith.” Eugene’s last sentence was a reminder to Melanie. He was telling her that she had been full of herself before, which was why she was paying the price now.

Arobotic ring was heard, and Eugene looked down at his phone before picking it up. Melanie was standing not far away from him. She could vaguely hear Viola’s coquettish voice from the other end of the call. Eugene's eyes were lowered as he replied to each question Viola was asking.Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Melanie watched this. Eugene was replying to Viola in a gentle manner. It was completely different from when he was speaking coldly to her just moments before.

Realization finally dawned on Melanie.

It did not matter if it was Viola Shaw or Evelyn Shue, Eugene had always been gentle and considerate to them.

Melanie was the only one who did not receive such treatment.

She stood stunned where she was. It was only when Eugene called ‘Melanie’ in a deep voice that she finally looked at him. Eugene was looking at her too, and he frowned slightly. He was still on the phone. “She isn’t here. | have no idea.” Melanie realized that he was still chatting on the phone with Viola.

She did not want to disturb Eugene, so she went to the other side of the room and opened the door to the balcony.

There was a huge disparity in temperature at Prime City. Melanie felt cold the moment she stepped onto the balcony.

She suddenly received a call from the director of the nursing home.

Melanie was taken aback. She picked up the call and heard the director saying seriously to her, “Please make a trip to the nursing home tomorrow if you have the time, Miss Smith.”

This scared Melanie She frowned. “Did something happen to my grandfather?”

Chapter 86.

“There’s something wrong with Mr. Lancaster recently. According to the nurse’s aide, he has been frequenting the bank.”

The director continued, “We suspect that Mr. Lancaster might be getting conned. When would you be free to come over and have a look at the situation, Miss Smith?”

Melanie hung up. She stayed on the balcony as her mind drifted off. It took a while before she remembered she had to call her grandfather. However, she did not make the call because her grandfather must have already gone to bed at this hour.

She gave this some thought and decided to call Dylan Lancaster.

Melanie rarely contacted Dylan of her own accord. She was always the one who had reached out to Melanie back then. Dylan had waited for Melanie on the road that she usually took to go to the office. Dylan would prepare different varieties of breakfast every morning for Melanie back then.

That was also when Dylan had told Melanie that she regretted abandoning her.

Melanie had believed that Dylan still loved her.

The call was soon picked up, but it was not Dylan. A man’s rough and coarse voice was heard through the phone.

He roared into the phone crudely, “Who are you looking for?”

Melanie found this very strange. She asked, “Where’s Dylan Lancaster?”

“Why are you looking for that bitch?” The man sounded even more rude when he heard Dylan’s name.

Next, she heard the man knock into something before he began cursing.

“That bitch gave birth to a useless daughter and she still has the gall to ask me for money!”
