The Unfaithful Mr. Scott

Chapter 22

The news that Melanie was transferred out of the president’s secretary’s office quickly spread within LeapCo. Many people even asked her about it.

Fortunately, Melanie was known as an aloof person in the company, so no one dared to talk. too much.

Having just started her new role, Melanie had a lot to pick up, so she did not have time to go out for lunch and made do with a simple lunch in the office cafeteria.

As soon as she entered the elevator, she saw a few people from the secretary’s office talking to Viola.

Everyone knew what happened. Eugene demoted Melanie, which meant that Viola’s position was more secure. Thus, more people wanted to please Viola.

Melanie walked into the elevator calmly without changing her expression. The people inside felt embarrassed and spoke in hushed tones.

Viola glanced at Melanie arrogantly and asked in a soft voice, “Melanie, are you used to working in your new role? | asked Eugene about it. He said that the department needed you more, and he'll transfer you back to the president’s office later.”

If Melanie ignored the smugness in Viola’s tone, her words were sincere enough.

Melanie hummed without saying much.

She did not care if Eugene would transfer her back to the president's office. Anyway, it did not matter to her where she worked. Viola thought she had won the battle, so she did not even bother to hide the smile on her face.

LeapCo was a big company that had a lot of projects. Before Melanie got off work, she suddenly received a message that she was to socialize with a customer.

Socializing usually meant drinking, but Melanie was still on her period. By the time she went to the venue, the customer was already there. Melanie was a natural at dealing with clients. After three glasses of wine, both parties closed. the deal.

Melanie was a little tipsy and found an excuse to go to the bathroom. As a result, she bumped into someone coming out of the private room next door.

Stephen’s pleasant scent was very recognizable. Melanie raised her eyes to see Stephen’s shocked face. He asked Melanie, “Why are you here?”

Melanie said, “I’m meeting a client.”

Stephen could smell the alcohol on her body and frowned without saying anything.

“I'm going to the bathroom.” After that, Melanie walked around him. She inadvertently looked through the ajar door behind Stephen and saw Eugene sitting there leisurely.

Melanie did not see Viola, so she did not know if Viola was there.

No wonder Stephen asked her why she was here.

Stephen probably thought that she was here to pick up Eugene, as she had always done previously. She looked away, nodded to Stephen, and left.

After Stephen finished making a phone call outside, he returned to the private room and heard someone yelling, “Eugene, how could you leave so soon?”

Eugene raised his eyes from his phone and looked calm. “She's working overtime, so I'll just send her some dinner and be right back.”

“Will you be able to come back?” Simon whistled, obviously teasing him.

Simon also asked, “Stephen, do you think that Eugene will be able to come back here after he has returned to his beloved princess?”

Stephen looked at Eugene thoughtfully. For some reason, he suddenly thought of Melanie’s slender back just now.

He frowned and called out to Eugene, who shot a glance at him.

Stephen paused and said, “I just saw Melanie in the private room next door.”

At the mention of Melanie, the private room became silent.

Eugene did not say anything. Instead, Simon sneered. “Why are you mentioning irrelevant people?”

Melanie finally closed the deal. After sending the customer away, she sat in the private room for a while before going out.. She was drunk and a little dizzy.

As soon as she walked out of the private room, she stumbled a little.

She only staggered two steps before someone held her firmly. Melanie was stunned for a moment. Then she slowly raised her head.This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
