The Unfaithful Mr. Scott ( Melanie Smith )
Chapter 797

Chapter 797 

Melanie’s flight was at ten in the morning. Yvonne wanted to drive her to the airport, but Melanie had declined her offer. 

The cab was already waiting outside the villa. Xander was carrying her suitcase for her, while Yvonne pouted. “You’ll be in Oskon City for so long this time, and Reny is leaving for her studies. I’ll be so bored alone in Jepton.” 

Melanie comforted her. “You can meet me in Oskon City.” 

Yvonne looked at her resentfully. She wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, she could only sigh and say, “Forget it. I don’t like Oskon City. The people there work too hard. It’s suffocating.” Xander put Melanie’s luggage in the trunk and walked over to the ladies, looking down at Melanie quietly. She would stay in Oskon City for at least two to three months this time. 

Although she was pregnant, but she had not gained any weight at all. Instead, she was even thinner than before. 

“I’ll wait for you to come back.” After a while, he put a good luck charm in her hand. 

Melanie blinked. Xander had recently given her one during the New Year, 

too. 

“I got it from a church in Prime City. It will keep you safe,” Xander said simply. He looked at Melanie, his usually clear eyes filled with a rare wave of emotions. His voice was barely a whisper – low, warm, and hypnotic. “Take it, Mel.” 

Melanie’s heart skipped a beat, and she subconsciously accepted the charm. After that, she did not linger any longer. She quickly got into the cab and headed for the airport.

As the driver turned the corner, Melanie inadvertently saw a small white car in the rearview mirror. That car had been behind her when she left the villa’s compound as well. She took a second look at it and retracted her gaze. 

However, when they were about to reach the freeway, the car was still right behind them. It stayed at a fixed distance behind the cab, showing no signs of overtaking them or changing lanes. 

“Excuse me, 

could you 

drive faster?” Melanie asked the driver in a low voice. 

“Why? Are you in a hurry?” 

“I…” Before she could finish her sentence, there was a loud honking of horns, followed by the driver bursting into expletives and abruptly turning the steering wheel- 

They were barely a few hundred miles away from the freeway entrance. The divider was to their right, and there were trucks to their left. 

However, the honking did not stop!

At LeapCo’s branch office, Eugene sat at his desk, files stacked in front of him. 

Lee stood beside him. “This is everything we could find,” he said carefully. “It’s true that Mr. Cedric has transferred thirty percent of LeapCo’s shares to William Thames.” 

Eugene looked down. His expression was solemn, making it difficult to tell what he was thinking. 

Lee was silent for a moment. He did not know what to say, either. 

After all, Cedric had personally brought William into the headquarters. Most people could tell that he wanted to raise William as his successor. 

Meanwhile, Eugene, his biological son, had been exiled from the headquarters and stonewalled outside… 

Lee sighed inwardly and reported his findings truthfully. “There was a board meeting at headquarters recently. A few major shareholders led by Mr. Elliot are currently in a stalemate with the Hendersons. They will probably take William’s side.  Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FɪndNøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“It’s a matter of time before the Hendersons approach you. I think we just have to wait a little longer… 

Before he could finish, Eugene’s private phone suddenly rang. 

The next second, all the blood drained from Eugene’s face after he answered the call. 

Eugene sped all the way to the hospital. The ward was easy to find, but he suddenly stopped at the door. His pupils constricted, and his thin lips were pressed into a line.
