Chapter 610

Maybe because of what Dylan had done to her, Melanie was not disappointed with Howard’s fake enthusiasm.

Deep down, it was as if she had already known that Howard did not care much about her.

Maybe when she saw Matthew, she knew she was no longer important to Howard.

It was just like Dylan sacrificing her because of Peachie.

Melanie’s calm gaze looked like she was judging him, spiking Howard’s guilt. He cleared his throat and said, “Mel, I’m happy you’re here in Oskon City. Why don’t we have lunch together today?

“I remember your favorite dish is grilled pork ribs, right? There’s a restaurant in Oskon City that cooks that well. Let me take you there to try it.”

He tried hard to pretend to be a good father. “After lunch, I can take you on a tour around Oskon City and buy you jewelry and handbags. Our Mel has to have everything that other girls have.”

It sounded as if they were close and had never been separated.

Melanie clenched her hands into fists and said, “You don’t have to do all that. I’m not here for a tour… “Before Melanie could finish her words, she felt nauseous again.

She covered her mouth and retched.

When she lifted her head, a clean tissue was handed to her. Eugene said in his deep voice, “If you feel unwell, let’s go back and do another medical check–up.”

Melanie only felt discomfort for a while. It might be because of the accident or because she was in a bad mood after encountering Howard.

Before she could embrace herself, Howard asked, “Mel, why are you at the hospital? Are you feeling unwell?”

Melanie was covering her mouth and could not speak. She heard Eugene answer in displeasure, “Why else would she be here? For a tour?”

Howard was tall and had a good figure among middle–aged men, but Eugene was half a head taller

than him.

Eugene glanced at Bianca’s hand, grabbed Howard’s arm, and mocked, “Mr. Smith, you’re pretty kind, looking after your ill female employee. It would be a disgrace not to award you for being so generous, kind, and thoughtful.

“It’s just that a responsible boss like you is asking his daughter why she’s here at the hospital. You

should care more about your family than your employees.”

Eugene’s words were sarcastic, yet he was good enough not to be straightforward about Howard and Bianca’s shameful relationship.

Howard’s expression turned gloomy.

Although Eugene wore a high–end suit, he looked a little messy as his suit was crumpled and he had wounds on his face. His image at the moment was way different from the usual him in LeapCo.

Howard looked at him and snorted coldly. “Mel, is this your friend? He’s rude.”

Bianca glanced at Eugene. Even with wounds on his face, Eugene still looked handsome.

Her heart hammered upon seeing such a charming man.

Then, she glanced at Melanie and said, “What friend? Can’t you see they’re dating? Otherwise, why would this man be so protective of her?”

Hugh’s brows knitted together upon hearing this. He regarded Eugene with a straight face.

Then, he said with displeasure, “I don’t agree with this, Mel. If he’s your boyfriend, break up him now! He doesn’t deserve you!
