Chapter 445
With that, Wagner stormed off.
Cameron wanted to smooth things over, but he did not know what to say as he watched
Wagner leave. He could only rush off after a few hasty apologies.
Viola was a little dumbfounded by the sudden turn of events, then her confusion was replaced with panic. She subconsciously looked up at Eugene and said, her tone hurt, “Pugme, did I say something wrong just now?”
Eugene did not show much emotion. Wagner’s reaction was not too surprising
He had probably reached out to Fount City behind their backs long ago. After Viola directly exposed him just now, he stormed off in anger and humiliation.
Viola’s eyes began to redden. Eugene had not answered her, so she was even more afraid of his reaction. She could not help but reach out and grab the hem of Eugene’s shirt.
She muttered softly, “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have said that just now. I–I just thought
However, she could not finish that sentence.
What did she think?
She thought she could do whatever Melanie could do. She thought she could even do berrer
Eugene looked up and said in a low voice, “There’s dessert over there. Get some cakes and best for a while.”
Viola’s eyes lit up. “Eugene, you’re not mad at me?”
Eugene paused. “I’m not.”
Viola laughed. She stood on her tiptoes to kiss Eugene, but Eugene happened to turn his bead away, so her lips brushed against his chin.
Eugene’s expression did not change. “Go and rest.”

Mason Gray adjusted his glasses. He studied the girl in front of him with the air of a gentleman. “No, I’m the one who should’ve looked where I was going. I didn’t hurt you, did
The voice was warm and kind. Viola looked up and saw a handsome and retined face
Mason’s eyes lit up the moment he saw Viola’s pretty face. He cleared his throat, and his voice grew gentler. “Are you all right? Did I hurt you?”

business card and said gently, “If you find any lasting damage or side effects in the future, you can reach out to me anytime.”
He was clearly chatting her up. Hesitantly, Viola accepted the business card.
She vaguely recalled hearing the name Rockwater before. It was also a financial company.
Mason stood there and watched Viola leave. He took his time taking off his glasses and playing with them for a moment before putting them back on.
Immediately, his expression became refined and elegant again.
When Melanie found Xander and the others, they were chatting with a big shot in the industry.
Xander listened to the big shot’s advice patiently and humbly.
Melanie did not disturb them. She found a place to sit by the side.
Xander was an interesting person. He was a creative wonder with extraordinary insight, but his talent never went to his head. Instead, he was always humble and willing to learn.
Melanie had seen him on the phone with his teacher before. His tone was filled with humility. and sincerity.
Moreover, he always worked very hard.
Melanie had mentioned to Yvonne in private that people like Xander were the most dangerous as rivals. He never grew arrogant or rested on his laurels. His mentality was always the same.
