Melanie glanced into the car casually and overheard Viola’s charming voice. “Eugene, you’re hurting

me.”

She was pressed against Eugene, her head resting on his chest. Her hands were holding Eugene’s

wrist. If it were not for the inappropriate time and place, it might have been an image of affection.

Sensing Melanie’s gaze, Viola looked up at her a bit awkwardly and said, “My hair got caught on

Eugene’s clothes.”

There was a smile in her eyes that made it unclear if the embarrassment was genuine or feigned.

Melanie had no interest in observing how Viola’s hair was entangled with Eugene’s clothes and just

turned her head to the other side.

After fussing about inside the car for a bit, Eugene and Viola finally got out. Viola’s face was a little

flushed as she tightly held onto Eugene’s arm. Clearing her throat, she said, “Sorry, Eugene was

worried about pulling my hair, so he took it slow.”

The branch office was not as impressive as LeapCo’s headquarters, and the building looked quite old.

Still holding onto Eugene’s hand, Viola suddenly asked, “Eugene, what if those people outside

suddenly rush in?”

The question sounded somewhat naive, and Eugene replied in a calm voice, “They won’t.”

Viola persisted. “I’m just saying, what if.”

“There’s no such possibility.”

Despite the seriousness of Eugene’s response, Viola was dissatisfied. She turned to look at Melanie

with a somewhat helpless expression. “Melanie, I really don’t know how you put up with him before.”

Melanie was caught off guard at being brought into the conversation and instinctively frowned.

Before she could say anything, she heard Viola answer herself, “Fortunately, you were just his

secretary. If you were his girlfriend, you’d probably be driven crazy by his straightforward way of

thinking.”

Melanie’s steps paused. While Viola complained, her tone indicated a sense of joy. Melanie’s gaze

shifted.

No wonder Viola had dragged her into the conversation. She wanted to take the opportunity to remind

Melanie that even in the past, she was only Eugene’s secretary and nothing more.

Looking up, Melanie saw Viola holding Eugene’s arm. She withdrew her gaze and nonchalantly took a

few steps back.

There was no particular reason for this reaction. She just found it all uninteresting. She was not Stella.

She did not need Viola to report her love for Eugene to her all the time.

After gaining a rough understanding of the situation at the branch office, they were about to take their

leave when Melanie just stood where she was. “I’m going to the hospital, so I won’t

be going with you.”

Although Peachie was not directly related to Melanie, she was, after all, just a young child.

Unexpectedly, Viola immediately piped up and said, “I’ll go with you. You mentioned Peachie misses

me, right?”

Melanie was initially going to decline, but a thought flashed through her head along with a hint of

emotion in her eyes. She nodded in agreement.

Viola then asked Eugene, “Eugene, do you want to come with us? Peachie is a very cute girl. I don’t

know how she’s doing now, and I want to go see her.”

When she heard this, Melanie glanced at Viola again.

Theodore brushed his nose and replied, “I happen to need to talk to the doctor about something.

Eugene, do you want to come along?”

Eugene glanced at him, his expression unchanged. He nodded gracefully. “Sure.”

Melanie was about to say something but held herself back. Eugene happened to look up at this

moment. In that brief moment of eye contact, both of them understood each other without saying a

word and silently looked away.
