Chapter 830
The Unfaithful Mr. Scott ( Melanie Smith )
Chapter 830
Melanie was busy as she was still following Matthewâs plan and working tirelessly. This would likely go on for about a month or so.
A curious newly hired employee asked her, âMiss Smith, you work so hard. Doesnât your boyfriend have any complaints?â
âI donât have a boyfriend,â she replied quickly.
The employee did not believe her. âThereâs no need to be shy. Weâve been seeing a handsome guy waiting for you downstairs to pick you up after work every day for the past few days. Even if heâs not your boyfriend, you guys are probably close, right?â
She was referring to Xander, who had been coming to pick Melanie up from work every day since he recovered from his injuries.
âLook, heâs waiting for you downstairs again,â the employee said to her, Melanie glanced over and saw Xanderâs tall and handsome figure.
She looked at the employee and asked, âDonât you have to leave now that workâs over?â
The person smiled knowingly as they left. When they were at the door, they could not resist adding, â Youâve good taste, Miss Smith.â

When Melanie reached the ground floor, it was snowing lightly. Xander handed her the umbrella. â Hold this for me.â
Melanie instinctively grabbed it before even registering the request, The next moment, a warm scarf was wrapped around her neck. It smelled like Xavier.
As Xander adjusted the scarf around her neck, his hand brushed past her ear. Melanie blinked, lowered her head, and buried her face in the scarf.
Xander said in a bright voice, âItâs cold today. I think this will keep you warmer.â
Melanie nodded. Their relationship had clearly changed since they returned from the mountain. Melanie was not naive, nor had she said things like she would not find another man for the rest of her
life.
Hence, she would not outright refuse it either when her friends introduced blind date prospects to her.
Yvonne posted her New Yearâs vlog and urged everyone to share it to increase its popularity.
Yvonneâs vlog was wellâmade and featured events from Christmas until now. It documented her daily life, which also included interactions with other peopleâsuch as Melanie giving Xander soup and Xander pouring water for Melanie.
âAre you also watching Yvonneâs video?â Henryâs gentle voice sounded as he sat down next to Eugene.

Eugene expressionlessly closed his phone. âI happened to see it on my friendâs social media.â
âDid you see Mel? Is she in a relationship? I saw her being quite intimate with a young man. He seems to be from the Solomon family?â Henry inquired.
Eugene lowered his gaze, his tone slightly cold as he replied, âI didnât see.â
âSometimes when I think of Mel, I think about how our family owes her. Sheâs been through a lot.â He sighed.
âBut this is good too. As long as sheâs doing well now, I wonât ask for anything else.â Henry was lost in his own thoughts and did not notice Eugeneâs gradually darkening and chilly gaze.
âIâll repay her everything I owe her. Whatever she wants,â he said after a while, his voice low. Henry did not catch his words.
When Melanie checked her messages again, it was after dinner. She thought about giving the
employees some pocket money to celebrate, but when she opened her phone, the first message that popped up was from 2: [Happy New Year.]
In a good mood, Melanie replied with the same greeting and was about to close the conversation when the other person practically replied in an instant. They transferred money to her account.
