Chapter 661
The Unfaithful Mr. Scott ( Melanie Smith )
Chapter 661
Melanie looked at the nurse. âHusband?â
The nurse said, âWho else would sit outside the ward? Did you guys argue and you chased him out?â
Melanie said, âYou mightâve been mistaken. Iâm not married.â
The nurse felt awkward. âMaybe it was the husband of the patient next door.â
Melanie nodded and went to wash herself up with the caretaker accompanying her.
Xander and the doctor told her she should rest for at least two days yesterday. She was worried about losing her child and decided to stay in the ward.
She called Fuller and explained the situation before texting Eric and Yvette, asking them to send her the important points of the meeting that day. Then, she started amending the proposal in the ward.
However, she did not receive the important document. Instead, she received a call from Yvette.
âAlthough I donât think itâs the right time to tell you this, you should advise Eugene or Xander.
âTheyâre arguing in the conference room, and the atmosphere is tense. Honestly, everyone knows the new terms are restricting those from Jepton. If LeapCo and Burning Star Studio donât cooperate, things wonât turn out well.â
Yvette was reminding Melanie sincerely. Her studioâs style differed from Burning Star Studioâs. They were bidding for a different project, and they were not competitors.
That was also why Yvette was close to Melanie.
Moreover, before Yvette could finish speaking, Ericâs message came in. It was almost the same as what Yvette told her. He was asking Melanie to stop Xander.
After all, it would be a waste to miss such a good opportunity.
Melanie could see Eugene and Xander disliked each other. After all, they were already on bad terms
before the cooperation with Blue Inc.
Melanie pondered.
If they could get the Redwaves project, Burning Star Studio would progress well and have the chance to develop in Oskon City.
As for the benefits LeapCo would get, it was obvious.
Melanie felt troubled. She did not know why the two had to quarrel at a time like this.
Harveyâs attitude was obvious. He wanted them to fight.
Melanie sighed and called Xander during lunch hours.
Xander answered the call quickly, and his voice was gentle. âWhatâs wrong?â

Melanie rubbed her forehead. âWerenât you going to meet the client today? Why did you go to the conference hall?â
Xander said, âThe client changed the appointment to tonight, and I happened to want to meet Fuller.
So, 1 came.â
âXander.â Melanie hesitated. âYou know better than I do that Jepton is being targeted this time. It means we and LeapCo will have a tough time.
âIf we want this chance, we should work with LeapCo and expand our strength.â
Xander knew what she meant and said nothing.
Melanie tried to sound calmer. âXander, I donât mean anything. Itâs just that I donât think itâs necessary to ruin our chances because of someone unimportant.â
Xander froze and caught a meaningful phrase. âEugene is an unimportant person?â
âDoes he look important?â
Just as their conversation ended, Lee brought lunch.
He seemed to be in a hurry and wanted to leave after putting down the takeaway boxes.
Melanie called out, âIs Eugene busy today?â
Lee froze and hesitated before saying, âMr. Scott said he needs to meet a client this afternoon and deal with something.â
Melanie nodded before asking, âDid you find anything about the surveillance camera?â
