The Unfaithful Mr. Scott ( Melanie Smith )
Chapter 723
Stephen did not finish his sentence, but Melanie knew what he meant. If Dylan was indeed diagnosed with mental issues, then Viola could easily claim that she was being falsely accused.
Melanie clenched her fists, feeling her head spinning slightly. However, she still forced herself to say, âIâll go in and see her.â
Dylan was in the hospital ward with a large bandage wrapped around her head. The wound had reportedly been self-inflicted with a stool. She was murmuring something, and wChapter 723
Stephen did not finish his sentence, but Melanie knew what he meant. If Dylan was indeed diagnosed with mental issues, then Viola could easily claim that she was being falsely accused.
Melanie clenched her fists, feeling her head spinning slightly. However, she still forced herself to say, âIâll go in and see her.â
Dylan was in the hospital ward with a large bandage wrapped around her head. The wound had reportedly been self-inflicted with a stool. She was murmuring something, and when Melanie entered the ward, she heard Dylan saying, âI was wrong.
Dylan was lost in her own world, completely unaware of Melanieâs presence. Melanie looked down at her for a while before calling out to her, âDylan.â
The woman stopped, her fingers trembling gently.
âI know youâre pretending,â Melanie said as she stopped in front of the hospital bed.
Dylanâs hands trembled even more, and her murmuring grew louder as if she were deliberately trying to drown out Melanieâs voice.
âDylan!â Melanie raised her voice sharply. âWhatâs the point of pretending to be crazy and stupid now?!â
She had just come from seeing Zara and even promised Zara firmly that the evidence she had was conclusive. Now, Dylan was pulling this stunt out of nowhere.
Seeing Dylan cower before her, Melanieâs anger surged. She wanted to tear open Dylanâs head and see what was inside!
However, the next moment, Dylan suddenly got up from the bed and knelt in front of Melanie. She grabbed her hand tremblingly. âMel, please forgive me. Please, I beg you to forgive me!â
Filled with anger, Melanie watched as Dylan slapped herself fiercely on the face over and over again. Her pleading echoed in Melanieâs ears, but she felt nothing.
âI beg you to forgive me, Mel. I was wrong, I was wrong. Iâm the one who harmed you, Peachie, and my father!
âItâs all my fault! I should die. I deserve to die a thousand deathsâ¦â
By the end, Dylan slowly curled up on herself again.
It was a pitiful sight. Dylanâs hair was already completely white, making her look more than 30 years older than her actual age. She curled up in bed as if she had suffered a great injustice.
Melanie looked at her. There was nothing else but an unnamed anger in her heart.
Did Dylan realize she was wrong now?

What was the use? Due to her stupidity and selfishness, Melanieâs grandfather was already gone!
Melanie watched Dylan weep bitterly, said nothing, and walked out.
Stephen was waiting at the door. When he saw Melanie come out, he asked softly, âAre you okay?â
Melanie did not reply. Suddenly, the screen of her phone lit up. She did not look to see who was calling and merely pursed her lips as she answered the call. She was not in a good mood now and needed
some quiet.
Reaching a corner of the hospital, she heard a low and casual voice over the call.
âYou went and looked for Zara Henson?â Eugene asked.
âHow did you know?â
Eugene toyed with the pen in his hand, gazing at the blue sky outside. âNaviar Law Firm has been handling LeapCoâs legal affairs recently. Zara is the one handling them.â
