The Unfaithful Mr. Scott ( Melanie Smith ) -
Chapter 152
Chapter 152
Melanie stopped and took a few deep breaths. Turning around, she looked at Dylan with a cold and determined gaze as she said, “I’ll pay for Peachie’s medical fees. I’ll provide only 20,000 each month. The doctor told me the fees of her treatment is approximately this price.”
Dylan nodded. “Okay. I’ll listen to whatever you say.”
Melanie added, “But I won’t give you the money.”
It took some time for Dylan to realize what Melanie had told her. She lifted her head in shock. “What do you mean? Who are you going to give the money to, then?”
“You don’t have to know about that.” Melanie showed no emotion on her face. She stared at the
woman before her silently.
All the motherly love she had lost during her childhood was because of this woman.
She had yearned for her mother’s love, but Dylan shattered her hope.
Never did she expect that she would one day need to guard against her mother like guarding against a
thief.
Melanie moved her lips and finally said, “I’ll never give you any more money.‘
“You!” Dylan wanted to snap at Melanie. However, when she saw Melanie taking two steps back, she looked at her in disbelief. “Mel, you must be joking, right?”
“You know I’m not joking.” Melanie left the fire exit after saying that.
Only Dylan was left on the staircase.
When Melanie returned to the ward, she did not visit Peachie. Instead, she told Xander, “Let’s go. Everything is settled.”
Xander nodded and said nothing. However, Viola, who was beside them, asked, “Where’s your mother? Why isn’t she here?”
Melanie noticed the mocking look on her face and did not want to explain much to her.
She knew how pathetic she looked today. She was just like a clown.
Melanie only said, “You can stay here if you want.”
Viola did not care about annoying Melanie anymore because she had stood by and watched enough.
Smiling, she said, “Eugene will be here soon. I’m waiting for him.”
Melanie had yet to learn where Eugene had gone. She nodded. “Alright then.”
Xander silently followed Melanie out of the hospital before saying, “I’m sorry. I didn’t know you were
in such a situation.”

She said, “You don’t have to apologize.”
Hesitation flashed across her beautiful eyes. She heard Xander say, “You’re different from what I thought.”
“Is that a compliment?” Melanie did not turn around, and she was still calm. However, she continued that topic with Xander.
Xander was frank. “Yes.”
He glanced at Melanie sideways. “You’re brave.”
Melanie did not respond to that. She had no idea what Xander was praising her for.
She was clearly not doing a good job at handling her personal matters as they were now a mess.
Xander knew she was in a bad mood and sent her back to the hotel before leaving.
Meanwhile, Melanie stood at the door in a daze after entering her room. It took her a while to snap out of it.
She was a little thirsty but noticed that the water in the kettle was unboiled.
As Melanie stared at the kettle, the emotions that had been welling up in her burst.
Her grip on the kettle felt weak, and the kettle fell from her hands and onto the ground.
Half the kettle was filled with water, and everything spilled onto the floor.
The drenched and cold sensation struck Melanie when the water splashed on her clothes. She stood in a daze before wiping off the water droplets on her face.
She had no idea why Xander would think she was brave.
She did not even dare to show her sadness before others.
