The call rang for a long time before Dylan answered. Upon hearing Dylan’s voice, Melanie closed her eyes and leaned against the door.
After a while, she asked, “Did you know Grandpa almost suffered from a brain hemorrhage?”
Dylan was startled. She was silent for a while before saying, “I didn’t.”
“You didn’t know?” Melanie repeated. She couldn’t even bother to throw a temper at Dylan. She asked, “Didn’t you think of his health when you called him?”
Dylan muttered, “He didn’t tell me he was ill.”
“He’s your father!” Melanie raised her voice. She shouted helplessly while stuttering, “Dylan, how could you be so heartless? He gave you money each time you asked for it. Hasn’t he always looked after you? How could you be so heartless?”
“Mel, it’s my fault.” Dylan sounded a little apologetic and seemed to be coaxing Melanie.
“I didn’t know his health was this bad, and I didn’t piss him off. I was just complaining about my hardships to him.”
Melanie knew what Dylan meant by complaining without even needing to ask.
Dylan must have been complaining about her not helping George and refusing to give her a single
dollar.
Melanie’s silent response made Dylan nervous. She said, “Mel, I know my mistake. I’ll never ask for money from your grandfather anymore.”
Then, she promised, “I don’t need your money either. I have something to do now. Let’s talk some other day.”
Dylan hung up the call hastily. Melanie only realized after a while what Dylan meant in her last
sentence.
However, she thought Dylan was putting on an act again.
she was tired both physically and mentally. She cooked herself a simple meal and went to bed after vashing up.
When it was about noon, her phone rang, disturbing her.
t was a call from Yana.
he asked Melanie, “Melanie, Mr. Scott said you’re back in Jepton. Ms. Walker asked me to call and sk why you aren’t at work.”
Only then did Melanie realize she forgot to tell Yana about her situation.
ubbing her temples, she said, “Something happened on my side. I’ll be at work in the afternoon.”

“Huh?” Yana was startled but still reminded Melanie, “Melanie, you have to be at work as soon as possible. The chairman of Prosper Group will be here. Everyone has to be here.”
Prosper Group’s chairman was Eugene’s father, Cedric.
LeapCo was Prosper Group’s sub–company and was given to Eugene to manage.
Yana said, “You’re responsible for attending the chairman when he arrives, Melanie. We might not be able to handle the job as well as you.‘
Melanie leaned against the headboard, still feeling dizzy. She asked, “Eugene isn’t back. Why is the chairman suddenly visiting?”
Yana said, “Mr. Scott’s flight was this morning, and he’s already in his office.”
Melanie was surprised that Eugene was back in Jepton.
Having no other choice, she could only get up and go to work.
It was almost time to get back to work after lunch in LeapCo. Melanie had just entered the office when she encountered Eugene, who was scolding others sternly.
He threw the report in his hand on Yana’s table as he scolded, “Since you can’t even do a simple table, you aren’t qualified to work at LeapCo.”
Yana lowered her head, not daring to speak.
It seemed that Eugene was in a bad mood. He said in a deep voice, “Lift your head!”
He rarely threw such a tantrum, and his expression was gloomy.
Yana almost cried as she lifted her head in grief. She happened to see Melanie walking in. It was as hough she had seen her savior. Flustered, she shouted, “Melanie!”
