Chapter 458
“Stephen, believe it or not, as long as Viola is just like what we think, she won’t end up well.‘
Melanie was certain, and Stephen said nothing more. He only sent her the address so that she knew where to go to check the surveillance footage.
The surveillance camera was in a restaurant. Stephen said the owner was his university classmate. That was why he could get the surveillance footage.
The footage was normal. Viola and Dylan were just having a meal. However, Dylan looked restrained, and even her hand holding Peachie was stiff.
Melanie looked through the few minutes of surveillance footage and asked the owner, “Can I have a copy of this?”
The owner looked at Stephen before agreeing.
Melanie had to deal with Burning Star Studio’s matters these few days. Thus, she chose to stay in the villa. Stephen left only after driving her back.
Two days had passed when LeapCo contacted them.
It was a call from Lee, and their intention was simple. LeapCo wanted Burning Star Studio to ensure safety and prevent such things from happening again.
Naturally, they needed to attend the meeting to discuss the terms.
Lee had passed the word, and Melanie told Xander and the others about it.
Xander looked at her. “Oliver and I will go. You don’t have to go.”
Melanie was happy not to go. After all, she did not want to go to LeapCo anymore.
However, she did not get a chance to escape. On Wednesday afternoon, Lee called her. ” Melanie, you have to attend the meeting in LeapCo.”
Melanie froze. “Aren’t Xander and the others in attendance?”
“Mr. Scott said that you’ve been in charge of LeapCo and Burning Star Studio’s collaboration. The sudden change of person in charge will make the discussion pointless, and we might miss some details. It’ll be troublesome.”
Melanie said nothing. Changing the person in charge in the middle of the project was indeed not appropriate.
She told Lee she would be in LeapCo soon and headed out after getting her things.
Melanie was familiar with LeapCo. Moreover, Lee had told the front desk that she would be coming. She headed to the conference room without a hitch.
Eugene’s habit was to carry out small and unimportant meetings in the small meeting room beside his office.
It was more convenient for him.
“Mr. Scott, Mr. Solomon is asking if you’ll be joining the meeting again,” asked Lee softly after he entered Eugene’s office.
Eugene was on a call from abroad. When he heard Lee’s words, he shot him a glance.
Immediately, Lee understood what Eugene meant and decided not to disturb him.
Only after Eugene finished the call did Lee remind him again. “The representatives of Burning Star Studio have been waiting in the meeting room for a long time.”
Eugene calmly tidied his table. “Is everyone here?”
Lee paused before answering, “Melanie might be on the way.”
“Inform me when everyone is here.” Eugene’s voice was cold as he casually flipped through the documents‘ pages.
Lee was troubled. “But Mr. Solomon…”
Eugene put down the document and looked at Lee emotionlessly. “I don’t want to repeat my words.‘
Lee could only leave.
As soon as he left the office and was about to head to the meeting room, he bumped into Melanie.
He was relieved and greeted Melanie more enthusiastically than usual, “You’re finally here.”
