The Unfaithful Mr. Scott ( Mela5nie Smith ) Chapter 436

Chapter 436

The nurse from before appeared with a piece of paper in her hand. “Pay this bill and get a tetanus shot later.”

She said this to Melanie and passed the bill to her too.

The nurse must have been frightened by Eugene just now.

Melanie took the bill from her and said to Eugene in a low voice, “Wait for me here. I’ll make payment.”

Eugene stared at Melanie with his dark and cold eyes but said nothing,

She took the bill to pay for the medicine and later returned to take Eugene for the tetanus shot. However, Eugene suddenly said coldly when they were there, “I’m allergic to the shot.”

The doctor administering the shot said, “We can do a protein shot.”

Melanie had to make another payment.

After they were done with the shot, they stayed at the hospital to be observed for half an hour. Melanie looked at Eugene’s bandaged arm and said in a warm but small voice, “Let me know if you have any requests.

“I just spoke to Xander. As long as the request is manageable, we can do our best to accommodate you.”

She was being very apologetic about this.

Melanie had just finished saying this to Eugene when a figure came running down the corridor.

The person was anxiously running right toward them.

Viola had just returned to Jepton from Hearth City with Eugene. They had traveled through the night, and she was too tired to go to work, which was why she applied for leave.

She did not mind it as there was nothing much to do in the company,

Lee suddenly called her to inform her that Eugene was hurt and in the hospital. Lee was stuck in the East district and could not make it there in time. That was why Viola had rushed here

from her house.

Viola saw Melanie standing next to Eugene from a distance and was reminded of what Lee had told her. Eugene had gotten hurt while inspecting the construction site of Burning Star. That was when Viola’s face fell.

Melanie was waiting for Eugene’s reply when she heard a slightly shrill voice ask, “Are you alright, Eugene?”

Viola was breathless from running, and she immediately pushed Melanie away from Eugene, She bit her lip, and her eyes were red when she looked at him.

“Why did you go to the construction site? Have you any idea how frightened I was when Lee called me? A small studio like that isn’t reliable at all. Why would you go to inspect their site?”

She kept going on and on, her loud sobbing attracting many people’s attention in the hospital

corridor.

Eugene remained stoic. “Did Lee get you to come?”

“He’s stuck in the North district and can’t make it. Why didn’t you tell me you were hurt, Eugene?” Viola asked him.

Eugene closed his eyes and said calmly, “It’s nothing serious.”

“How is this not serious?” Viola got increasingly upset. “If this isn’t serious, what is? You’re hurt, but another woman is by your side instead of me. Isn’t this serious enough?”

She turned to look at Melanie, and there was resentment in her tone. “Can’t you stop

appearing in front of Eugene now that you’ve left LeapCo, Melanie? Why do you keep using the excuse of work to see him? I know very well what you’re planning,

“It’s not appropriate for Eugene to say much to you, but could you have some sense and distance yourself from him?”

Melanie looked at her with a sarcastic look in her eye. “Do you really think I want to be here?”

Her cold eyes glanced at Eugene as she said brusquely, “About the medical fees, I’ll have to trouble Mr. Scott to bring the receipt to Burning Star. If I continue staying here, I’ll really be the one with no sense.”

She turned to leave after that. Viola watched her walk away with clenched fists. She looked pitifully at Eugene again.

“Why were you with her, Eugene? Did she come looking for you and follow you to inspect the site?”

Viola stared at him wide–eyed. She wanted to hear an answer from him.

However…

Eugene’s dark eyes swept a glance at her, and he said flatly, “If you’re so unhappy about this, why did you take leave today?”

Viola was taken aback.
