Cameron nodded. “No wonder.”
It was a nice, comfortable dinner for them. After they had finished the meal, Melanie received a call from Viola.
For some reason, Melanie’s eyelid twitched.
She held back her temper and picked up the call. She immediately heard Viola’s panicked voice coming from the other end. “Melanie, come quickly to Paramount Hospital. Something happened to Mr. Morrison!”
Melanie’s heart sank. “What happened?”
“I have no idea. I think he’s allergic to mango and accidentally had some during dinner. He passed out after that!”
By the time Melanie arrived, it was half an hour later. She had rushed there as fast as she could. She had just gotten out of the car when she saw Eugene coming out of his car as well. There was a cold, angry air about him, and it chilled her to be around him.
The look on his face was frighteningly grim when he saw her. He stared frostily at Melanie and said, “Did you do it on purpose or were you stupid enough to mess things up?”
Melanie paused in her steps. “This was Viola’s doing.”
“I don’t want excuses; I just want results,” Eugene said slowly.
Melanie’s hands fell to her sides, and her fingers subconsciously clenched. She held her head high and replied coldly, “These are the results of Viola’s actions. You should question her instead.”
She had tried to stop Viola before, but Viola only thought Melanie was picking on her.
What else could Melanie do when Viola had Eugene to back her up?
Eugene stared at Melanie. It took a while for him to finally walk toward the hospital. The black shirt on him slowly disappeared into the night until Melanie could no longer see him.
Melanie stood where she was for a while before heading to the hospital.
Nothing must happen to Mr. Morrison.
When she arrived at the emergency room, Eugene was already checking with the doctor on his condition.
Viola stood at the side with her head lowered. She did not dare say a word.
Evan was deathly allergic to mango, and he would go into shock at the slight taste of it.
The food Viola had with Evan contained mango in the sauce, which was why he ended up passing out.
According to the doctors, he was taken to the hospital in time, and there was no danger. He would be fine after being put on an IV drip for the night.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Scott. This is my fault. I had no idea Mr. Morrison was allergic to mango.” Viola was almost crying. “I know I shouldn’t have met him for dinner, but Melanie said she had to meet Mr. Crane. I should’ve been with her. I’m sorry.”
Eugene shot daggers at Melanie with his eyes when he heard this.
Melanie’s eyes narrowed. A few words from Viola indicated that this had happened because of her.
Eugene would probably believe her.
Melanie did not even bother to explain anymore as she looked away.
Eugene spoke sternly and coldly, “There better be a proper explanation for this.”
