Chapter 394
Finally, when she was almost out of breath, Eugene let her go.
However, she only had a moment’s reprieve before he held her in his arms and kissed her again.
Eugene went wild that night. He almost wanted to do it in the car until Melanie stopped him.
After his display of passion, Melanie’s eyes were red, and her lips were swollen. As he pressed her into his arms, she asked him quietly, “Eugene, what happened?”
Eugene said nothing.

Melanie frowned and looked up at him, but all she could see was Eugene’s clenched jawline.
In the dark night, his voice was unspeakably cold. “Milly, I wasn’t ruthless enough with myself. That’s why I ended up walking down this path.”
He closed his eyes, his Adam’s apple bobbing. “Milly, can you give me a little more time?”
At that time, Melanie did not understand what Eugene meant. Even so, she believed him.
Even later, when he had more people by his side, she had held onto his words. She just had to give
him a little more time.
When she woke up, there was a thin sheen of sweat on Melanie’s forehead. She propped herself up on the headboard and felt her heart palpitate.
She did not know why she had dreamed of that time. It was probably because Eugene had mentioned it again that afternoon that she had remembered that conversation.
However, Melanie felt suffocated whenever Eugene shouted the name “Milly” in her dream.
It had been a long time since someone had called her that. Rather, there had only been two people
who had called her all her life.
Milly was Melanie’s childhood pet name. When she was learning how to spell as a kid, she had complained that her name was way too long and had too many syllables. She asked her parents why they had not called her Milly instead. That would be so much easier to spell and say.
Howard was still a good father back then. He hugged her and said, “Alright, then Daddy will call Milly from now on. You’re my only treasure, little Milly.”
Later on, Howard and Dylan got divorced, and no one mentioned that little incident again.

One day, though, Eugene went with her to visit her grandfather, and Albert accidentally brought up that childhood memory.
After that, Eugene kept calling her Milly for a long time.
The memories were all jumbled and confusing. Melanie sat on her bed for a long moment before she
heard a knock on the door.

Rubbing her temples, she opened the door and saw Xander standing outside with a glass of juice,
His expression was the same as ever. “You’re awake.”
Melanie’s temple still hurt a little. “Is something the matter?”
“Oliver and the others picked some fruits from the orchard a few days ago. They’re still quite fresh, so
I squeezed some into juice for you.” Xander saw that she did not look too good. Her forehead was covered in a cold sweat. He reached out and pushed her messy hair behind her ear.
He pressed his lips together and asked slowly, “Did you have a nightmare?”
Melanie was taken aback for a moment before she realized what Xander was doing. She subconsciously moved back.
Her reaction was quite evident, and Melanie was embarrassed by it. She frowned and looked at Xander, who had retracted his hand calmly.
He chuckled. “Do you think I’m being presumptuous? I’m sorry.”
Melanie took the juice from him. “Sorry,” she said in a low voice. “I’m just not used to people suddenly touching me.”
Xander wanted to say more, but Melanie’s cell phone suddenly rang from inside her room. She
nodded at Xander and turned back to her room to answer the call in relief.
Xander watched her go, lowered his gaze, and turned to leave.
However, before he could go too far, he heard the sound of something crashing to the floor. It came from inside the room.
