The Unfaithful Mr. Scott ( Melanie Smith )
Chapter 590

Chapter 590

Melanie quickly thought about how to pose the question and she asked carefully, “Do you know Matthew Smith very well?”

Eugene was taken aback. He looked straight at Melanie as his relaxed mannerism vanished. He continued staring at her. There was a vaguely somber look in his eyes.

He lowered his voice, “I’ve told you before that he isn’t someone that you should be in contact with.”

There was warning in his tone and Melanie’s tense mood immediately relaxed from the annoyance. She said, “It’s fine if you don’t want to tell me anything.”

She took a step back to close the door.

“Melanie.” Eugene’s hand blocked at the door frame to stop Melanie from closing the door. He looked at her through the crack of the door and said coldly, “I wasn’t joking with you.”

All she did was look at his hand and say in a low voice, “Let go.’

“}

She raised her eyes to look at Eugene. The warm, yellow light in the corridor shone on Eugene’s face. It gave him a warm glow.

He looked down. His dark eyes seemed to be covered in a layer of soft light, which made him look gentle and kind.

Even his sharp, straight nose looked like it had a layer of thin gauze that softened his demeanor.

Melanie looked calmly at him. “Don’t tell me how to do things, Eugene. I don’t need any advice.”

She closed the door and walked back into the room. She had just sat down when Yvonne called her on the phone.

“Hey, Mel, has Hugh gotten in touch with you? How did it go? I made a pretty good arrangement for you, didn’t I? He’s six foot tall and has a muscled abdomen, he’s young and warm, and is the perfect boyfriend. Doesn’t he look good standing next to you? That old man, Eugene Scott, must be so jealous

…”

Yvonne kept chattering about this and it took Melanie some difficulty to finally cut in, “How did you know Hugh has a muscled abdomen? Have you seen it before?”

It made Yvonne choke on her drink when Melanie suddenly asked the question and she kept coughing.

Melanie pinched between her eyes. “Let him go home. I don’t need someone with such great credentials.”

“Why?” Yvonne did not understand this. “Aren’t you worried that Eugene Scott would find out about this? Hugh works great as a decoy. Don’t worry. Hugh might not be good at anything else, but he’s very loyal and supportive.”

“This isn’t a matter of being loyal or supportive…” Melanie sighed. “The situation at Oskon City is a

little different. I have something else to take care of.”

Yvonne grunted in reply and someone next to her suddenly said something. The phone was passed to

Xander.

He asked Melanie, “Are you done with the meeting today?”

“Yup. Mr. Fuller is the main speaker today. I learned a lot,” Melanie replied.

“I used to learn at Mr. Fuller’s side. There’s also Mr. Zeitman and Mr. Garner, they’re all great experts. You should learn from them these few days. You’ll improve tremendously,” Xander spoke softly and slowly to Melanie. She took the opportunity to ask a few more questions.

Near the end of their conversation, she was reminded of something and she asked Xander, “Mr. Fuller said today that Oskon City is preparing for a huge tender. Is Burning Star planning to take part in it?”

“Of course, we are. Oliver is preparing the details while we wait for our project with Blue Inc to be completed.”

Melanie thought about this and said, “If we do that, we might lose the opportunity.”

Most companies would begin networking and establishing connections before the tender. Only highly reputable studios would follow the usual tender procedures. After all, when it came to design projects,

it was different because a lot of subjective matter was involved.

If they could not lock down the designs early on, it would become exhausting in the end due to differing opinions on what makes a good design.

Even though she did not doubt Xander’s capabilities, Melanie felt there was no need to exhaust everyone when they could do things the easy way.

Besides, she was already in Oskon City.

After discussing this with Xander, they decided that Melanie should check out the tender first and get in touch with the person in charge. Xander and the others would head over at a later time.

Melanie met with Mr. Fuller the next day to talk about this and he was surprisingly supportive of her decision.

“It’s a good thing to see young people working hard at something. Also…”

He saw someone while speaking and smiled and waved at the person behind Melanie. “What a coincidence, Mr. Scott.”
