Chapter 599
The Unfaithful Mr. Scott ( Melanie Smith )
Chapter 599
Yvette clearly did not believe what Melanie had just said. She wanted to ask more questions, but just then, Eric came over to find Melanie.
âFuller wants you to come with us to the lab this afternoon. Thereâs a copy of the data Xander asked for earlier, so you should come get it.â
Melanie nodded in agreement. She turned around and said a few more words to Yvette before going back to her work.
Since she had told Xander she would try to win the Redwaves bid, she had to do
her best.
Once she got busy, she did not have time to ponder on all the other small matters. She was busy until the end of the summit. When Eric came to look for her, she had just finished packing her things.
Eric could not help but sigh. âBirds of a feather really do flock together. You
remind me of Xander from back then.â
Melanie said, âThere are still some things I donât understand. Iâll have to consult Fuller later.â
Fullerâs studio would not be participating in Redwavesâ bidding. They only took on largeâscale exhibition designs, so after Melanie told Xander about her plans, Xander had asked her to learn from Fuller more often.
Eric smiled brightly. âSure, no problem.â
Melanie chatted merrily as she walked out of the conference room with Eric. However, after taking a few steps, she felt as if someone was looking at her from
behind.
She stopped in her tracks and looked back. There was no one there.
Eric asked, âWhatâs the matter?â
Melanie shook her head. âNothing. I just feel like someoneâs watching me from behind.â
âReally?â Eric looked back too.
Melanie shook off the strange feeling inside her. âMaybe Iâm overthinking things.
She followed Eric to where Fuller was waiting, but to her surprise, there was a car parked in front of Fuller. Lee was standing in front of it.

Melanie paused just as Lee said, âMr. Scott has something on now. He asked me to pick you up and bring you back to the laboratory. Heâll find you at the laboratory later.â
Fuller nodded and got into the car.
Eric opened the passenger door. âMelanie, why donât you take the passenger seat?
Lee gave Melanie a small smile. Melanie could not say anything more in Fullerâs
presence.
On the way there, she learned from Lee and Eric that Eugene would be one of the investors this time, mostly because Fuller pulled some strings.
After all, Eugene had also invested a sum of money in Fullerâs lab.
If LeapCo wanted to get into Oskon Cityâs market, it was inevitable that they would have to spend some money. Melanie did not say anything.
They still had to organize print the data Xander needed. Melanie watched Eric work from the side.
Lee had dropped them off and then went to pick up Eugene. By the time Eugene arrived, they had yet to finish printing the data.
As soon as he reached the laboratory, he went straight to Fuller and discussed something in a low voice.
Eric glanced at them. âAs expected of a big boss. Heâs swift and decisive, yet he knows how to build his network and call in favors.â
He told Melanie, âMr. Fuller didnât want to take the LeapCo investment at first, but after a discussion with Eugene, he agreed for some reason.â
As long as Eugene wanted to maintain a good relationship with someone, there was nothing he could not do to make it happen.
Melanie turned to look at Ericâs screen. Suddenly, she heard Fullerâs say, âEric, come with me to the storeroom to get a model.â
Eric nodded and said to Melanie, âWhen the progress bar reaches 85%, just drag this document over.â
With that, he followed Fuller to the storeroom.
Only Melanie and Eugene remained in the lab. It was strangely quiet.
