Chapter 501
Eugene looked at Melanie upon hearing her words. His mockery was as obvious as always. “Are you seriously putting yourself in the owner’s position?”
His voice was loud and sarcastic.
Melanie looked at him calmly. “I just wanted to remind you to avoid unnecessary risk.”
Since Eugene wanted to bring Viola over, she naturally had to remind him just like he had constantly reminded her.
It was to prevent awkward situations.
Eugene continued carefreely, “What risk? Why don’t you make it clear?”
He stared at Melanie’s eyes indifferently.
Then, he paused and thoughtfully said, “Are you thinking you’re the risk I should avoid?”
Chuckling, he glared deep into Melanie’s eyes as he lifted his right eyebrow slightly.
“Melanie, I can at least be sure you’re confident.”
Frowning, Melanie wanted to say something. However, Henry cleared his throat and interrupted them.
Henry glared at Eugene. “Bastard, I invited Mel. If you’re unhappy about it, you can get lost. And take your secretary with you!”
He scolded Eugene angrily while coughing intermittently.
It seemed that Eugene’s act of bringing Viola over had spiked Henry’s anger.
Henry was the one who raised Eugene, so the latter was obedient in front of Henry. Especially since he was already furious. Eugene said nothing more.
Then, Henry looked at Melanie and comforted her, “Mel, don’t worry. If this brat dares to bully you, let me know! I’ll teach him a lesson for you!”
Melanie chuckled and poured a glass of water for Henry. She did not say anything.

Viola had just returned from changing her clothes and looked pale. She had heard every word Henry said from outside.
She bit her lip and took her seat with her head lowered. However, she could not stop herself from peeping at Henry’s direction.
Viola happened to see Henry smiling as he served food onto Melanie’s plate. Her grip on her spoon tightened as emotions gushed within her.
She roared internally, ‘I’m Eugene’s girlfriend! The person sitting beside Eugene should be me! Who is Melanie to take everything that’s mine? How can a whore like her be so shameless?
Melanie was eating the food on her plate when she sensed an unfriendly gaze on her back. She frowned slightly.
She knew who it was without needing to turn around.
It could only be Viola.
Viola’s appearance here was a little outrageous, even if Eugene did give her permission to attend.
Melanie could see she wanted to present herself before Henry, yet she forgot the Scott family was not simple.
Henry had seen and tasted many delicacies. A handmade cake would not touch him.
Viola had acted foolishly, thinking real life was like the TV shows she watched.
Moreover, she appeared with mud on her clothes at Henry’s birthday banquet. Others could guess her relationship with Eugene.
The guests might say nothing in front of them, but they would secretly gossip about Eugene’s rude girlfriend.
