The Unfaithful Mr. Scott

It was more tiring handling the blind date brigade than entertaining business clients. By the time Melanie managed to make her escape, the party had already started.

She walked into the party with Xander and immediately noticed Eugene standing next to the dance floor. A nice–looking woman with delicate features was standing next to him. That must be his date.

Eugene’s preference had not changed much. He had always had a thing for good girls who looked adorable. It was probably because such women were easier to control.

He had spotted Melanie as well. She had taken off the coat, and everyone could see her sexy body. She moved about carefreely on the dance floor.

The only thing that was sore to the eyes was the hand on her waist. Eugene’s expression turned darker. This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Melanie had never been enthusiastic about dancing. She only ended up dragging Xander to the dance floor because one of the ladies from the blind date brigade who was friendly with her kept pushing her to dance.

She put on the coat again and was about to walk away to give Yvonne a call to remind her to put Merry to bed when a waiter came over with a tray in his hand. He did not see her coming and accidentally spilled juice onto Melanie.

Fortunately, she still had Xander’s coat on her, so it did not stain her dress. Her dress was made out of thin material, and it was light–colored. It would have been embarrassing if she had gotten juice on it.

The waiter was shocked and fumbled as he apologized. The juice had spilled on most of the coat.

Melanie had to take it off to avoid dirtying her dress.

She looked at the stains on the coat but did not blame the waiter for it. After all, there were quite a lot of people at the party.

The only troublesome thing about this was that Xander’s coat had been dirtied. Xander had been called away by a friend, and she could only get the waiter to bring her a bag.

While she was waiting, a woman came over. Melanie glanced at her and found her a little familiar. She immediately remembered that this was the young woman with Eugene earlier.

Melanie turned away, but the young woman began speaking to her, “Excuse me, please.”

She turned to see the young woman holding a plate. She was trying to get some cake.

Melanie moved to the side, and the young woman spoke up again, “Thank you. I saw you just now. You’re really pretty.”

She smiled so widely that her eyes turned into little crescents. She looked like a little fox. “You’re even prettier than the photos.”

Melanie was taken aback. “What photos?”

“The company’s team–building photos. Yana showed them to me, but she said you left the company a long time ago.

“Oh, by the way, my name is Dory Eastman. I’m an intern at LeapCo. I’m here with Mr. Scott for work.”

Melanie did not know her at all and was not interested in what she had to say.

She said to Dory, “Eugene Scott must be grooming you.”

As for what he was grooming her for, it was hard to say.

Dory admitted it graciously. “It’s only right that he should groom me.”

After all, she and Eugene were distant relatives, and their families had business connections. That was why her father arranged for her to learn and experience from Eugene.

Melanie had mentioned it casually and was not really planning on getting any reply. However, Dory did not notice that Melanie was just humoring her.

Dory even took out her phone without hesitation. “Let’s keep in contact. Yana told me that to be Mr. Scott’s most trusted secretary. I’d like to learn from you.”

Melanie rejected her immediately. Dory looked a little disappointed but quickly looked up. She called out earnestly, “Mr. Scott.”

Eugene was here for work, and he had gone to entertain some business acquaintances. He was drinking with them, so there was a light scent of alcohol on him.

His gaze paused on Melanie for a while before he asked Dory nonchalantly, “What are you doing here?”

Dory replied, “I’m here to learn from your ex–employee.”
