Chapter 607

The traffic police cleared the scene soon after the accident. Eugene had protected Melanie, so she was not injured.

Instead, Eugene and Lee had various scratches on their bodies.

When the driver of the van was arrested, he smelled like alcohol and seemed to have been driving

drunk.

Melanie glanced at the back of the car. It was seriously damaged there.

In fact, there was other damage on the side of the car. Lee had made a turn, and there was a divider with plants beside the car. The car happened to bump into the divider.

Melanie had a strange feeling that this might not be an accident.

Then, she looked at the van driver. He was moderately tall and wore casual attire. His facial features looked ordinary.

Before Melanie could take a closer look, the traffic police called her to register her details. Only after dealing with everything did she approach Eugene and Lee.

She was worried. “Let’s go to the hospital first. The talk can wait.”

Eugene’s forehead and temples were wounded, and his knuckles were also bleeding.

Melanie looked at those wounds. Eugene was injured because he had protected her. She could not leave him unattended.

She took a few bandages from her purse and handed them to Eugene. “Put these on first.”

Eugene looked at her. His face was wounded, making him look less oppressive. With his back facing the sun, he looked at Melanie.

Melanie froze and understood Eugene’s gaze.

She knelt on one knee in front of Eugene and lifted her head to look at his wounds.

Her eyes met Eugene’s. His eyelashes were long, making his eyes look charming.

Melanie froze and bit her lip as she took some sanitary wet wipes from her bag. She said, “Lower your

head.”

Eugene cooperated and lowered his head. Melanie wiped the dirt around his wounds to clean them before sticking on the bandages.

She was slow and gentle. Her body was tilted toward him, and their distance got closer.

The neroli flower scent on her assailed Eugene’s nostrils. His eyelashes fluttered. Before Melanie could finish applying the bandages for him, he pushed Melanie’s hand away.

He said, “We’ll get it done in the hospital.”

Since Eugene said so, Melanie would naturally listen to him. She looked at her phone and wanted to

call Mr. Fuller.

However, she noticed Yvette’s messages, asking her why she had not arrived yet.

Melanie replied to them and heard Lee saying, “I’ve contacted a private hospital. Mr. Scott, Melanie, you two head over there first. I’ll stay back and settle the rest here.”

Lee was in the driver’s seat and was also wounded. Melanie wanted him to go to the hospital with Eugene, and she thought of suggesting she stay back and deal with the rest.

Lee knew what was on her mind and explained, “This car belongs to the Oskon City branch. The insurance procedure is a little complicated. I called the branch’s secretary, and he said he’ll be here to help me with this in a while.”

Melanie nodded and did as Lee told.

Eugene’s wounds looked severe, but they were just some surface injuries. The car crash did not injure his bones, and only some ointment was prescribed for him.

Melanie took the prescription, feeling relieved. If something happened to Eugene, it would be

troublesome.
