Melanie followed Eugene as they left the restaurant. She remained silent the entire way. Howard’s

voice echoed incessantly in her mind, causing her head to pound and a sense of discomfort to grow

her chest.

Suddenly, Eugene stopped walking.

Melanie looked up at him, her thoughts swirling in her eyes.

She could not deny that if Eugene had not pulled her away just now, Howard’s slap would have

connected with her face.

“Why did you come just now?”

“Yvette sent me a message,” Eugene replied casually, glancing at the time on his phone. “We’re not

sure about Howard and Matthew’s relationship yet. It’ll be troublesome for you to get involved.”

Melanie pursed her lips slightly. “So, you came to remind me?”

Eugene’s gaze remained calm. He did not answer her question directly but instead casually glanced at

her before asking, “Do you want me to ask Lee to take you to the hospital for a check-

His voice was deep, and Melanie could sense his intention. He probably did not want any accidents to

happen to her that could affect him.

Eugene was a cautious man, especially now that Howard was involved with Matthew. There were so

many things going on, so naturally, Eugene would not allow Melanie to cause trouble for bo

After a moment of silence, Melanie declined. “No need. I’ll go back to the conference hall by myself.”

She did not feel entirely comfortable facing Eugene now either. Nobody wanted to be seen in ar

embarrassing situation.

Eugene raised an eyebrow slightly but did not say anything.

When Melanie returned to the conference hall, Yvette was already inside. Seeing her return so quickly,

Yvette was surprised. “Why are you back so soon?”

She thought she would at least spend some more time with Eugene.

Melanie looked at Yvette, hesitant to speak. Eventually, she shook her head and returned to her sot.

Yvette pondered for a moment before following her. She poured a cup of hot water for Melanie,

adopting a more subdued tone than usual as she said, “Melanie, are you upset that I called Mr. SoT

over? I didn’t expect him to come either. I was just worried about you-

“I don’t blame you,” Melanie interrupted before Yvette could finish. “If you hadn’t come, I wouldn’t have

known how to handle the situation.” She rubbed her temples. “I’m just a bit tired.”

Yvette could tell that Melanie did not want to talk much right now. She looked at Melanie with a

Her work efficiency surprisingly remained high this afternoon. After Eric passed by her three times. with

some documents, he finally could not help but call out to her, “Melanie?”

Melanie looked up. “What’s up?”

“Oh, I just wanted to remind you to take a break. You’ve been burying yourself in work all afternoon.

Why are you working so seriously with the salary Xander is giving you?” He chuckled. “Ever heard of

slacking off? Employees should know how to slack off.”

Glancing at the time and realizing that it was almost time for today’s conference to end, Melanie

nodded at Eric. “Alright, thanks.”

Eric grinned with satisfaction. Before he could say a word, he heard Melanie ask him, “Is Mr. Fuller still

with Mr. Gamer? I have something I don’t quite understand and want to ask them.”

Eric felt a lump in his throat but still complained softly, “This is why I hate Xander. He’s a workaholic

himself, and everyone in the studio follows suit.”
