Chapter 174

Viola

Melanie lowered her gaze to look at Viola’s feet. Without saying anything, she propped her up. seemed to have thrown her entire weight onto Melanie. Melanie was not particularly strong and so had to use both hands to support her.

Melanie could not help but frown and asked, “Is your leg injured too?”

Blinking, Viola whispered, “It seems like I twisted it a bit.”

Melanie nodded and continued supporting her. However, since Viola was wet and muddy while leaning against Melanie, Melanie’s clothes also got quite dirty.

In the guest room, the housekeeper had prepared only one set of clean clothes. Viola looked at Melanie and apologized softly, “I’m sorry, Melanie. I didn’t mean to.”

Seeing that there were not too many marks on her clothes, Melanie calmly said, “Change your clothes. If you need any help, just let me know.”

“I’ll go wipe myself down first.” Viola smiled apologetically at Melanie and turned to the bathroom.

She walked steadily, showing no signs of the difficulty she had experienced moments ago. Melanie’s eyes darkened when she saw this.

Viola took more than half an hour in the bathroom. She had really hurt her hand, so she moved slowly as she was afraid to touch it.

Melanie waited outside while Viola changed. Her own clothes were also dirty, and she had considered using water in the bathroom to clean up a little.

However, Viola had been in there for some time, and Melanie was not comfortable wearing someone else’s clothes, so she waited patiently.

When Viola finally emerged, she had changed into clean clothes and even touched up her makeup. She looked at Melanie and cheerfully said, “I’m all set, Melanie.”

Viola did not lean on Melanie like before when they made their way back out. Instead, she even walked half a step faster than Melanie.

Outside, another round of games had started, and the atmosphere was lovely. Someone noticed them and said, “Eugene and the others are playing table tennis inside.”

Viola acknowledged them and said to Melanie, “I’m going to go look for Eugene.”

Melanie just turned around and went to sit in a corner, idly playing with her phone.

The rain outside showed no sign of stopping, so leaving was not an option for now. As for Stephen, he was nowhere to be seen. Melanie was unsure of what to do.

She was thinking about whether to give Stephen a call when she heard a male voice saying, “Uh, the one by the window, the one in black.”

Melanie pansed, realizing that the poison was referring to her. Looking over, however, she realized she did not recognize the guy.

The guy soomed to have a bad tempor as he immediately clicked his tongue nod and commanded, ” See that coat nod to you? Bring it over to me.”

There was indeed a coat nod to Melanie, the hesitated for a moment but ultimately brought the coat

next over to the guy.

The man was leaning against the entrance to the pool room. When Melanie reached him, it just so happened that Simon and another guy were also coming but.

Melanie handed the coat to the guy in a composed manner. “Here you go.”

“Zack, did you spend so much money playing that your eyesight’s gone bad?” Simon paused before

his gaze fell on Melanie. He scrutinized her from head to toe, sneering, “How dirty.”
