Chapter 505
Viola was also covered with marks. The bluish marks on her indicated what had happened last night.
The scent assailed her nostrils, making Viola feel nauseous.
“Viola, what’s wrong?” Mason’s husky voice sounded. He stretched his hand out of the blanket and grabbed her waist.
Viola shuddered, and her first reaction was to slap away Mason’s hand. Her expression was gloomy.
As she tried to recall what happened last night, fear and regret rose in her.
She had been chased out of Mistyard last night. Feeling aggrieved, she went to a bar in the city center to drink.
It was fine at first. However, after being a little tipsy, she called Mason over.
Then, her memory was in a mess. She could not recall what happened after that. All she could remember was Mason gently comforting her.
Her memory was stuck at the point where Mason had his arms around her as he took her to the hotel.
“Viola, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?” The man’s deep voice sounded again.
Mason sat up and looked at Viola gently. “Viola, I didn’t know last night was your first time. I’m sorry. I went overboard…”
“Shut up!” Before he could finish, Viola snapped.
Her face was pale, and she looked flustered. She removed the blanket in an effort to get up, but her legs felt like jelly when they touched the ground.
She was naked, and the marks on her body showed how intimate they were last night.
Viola glared at Mason in disbelief. “Why did you do this? Y–You raped me!”
Slowly, she regained her rationale. However, she could not suppress her surging sorrow. Mason, how could you do this to me?”
Startled, Mason froze before smiling again and looking at Viola gently. “Viola, what are you talking about? Have you forgotten how passionate you were last night?
“You were the one who hugged me and refused to let go.” His gaze on Viola was still gentle, yet that hint of coldness scared Viola.
“I have the video as evidence. Viola, you can’t deny what you’ve done.”
When Melanie entered the villa, she walked on tiptoes. She had slept in Eugene’s car. She was not sleepy anymore and decided to work in the study.
When Reny got up, she was surprised and asked Melanie, “When did you come back?”
Melanie did not answer her. She asked instead, “Do we have any plans for today?”

“Same old, same old. But Melanie, Xander seems to be planning to send you on a business trip.”
Reny looked sleepy, and her words were muffled. “Maybe it’ll be to Oskon City. We have to be in Jepton. So, it might be only you and Xander going.”
Melanie did not mind going on a business trip. She chatted with Reny for a while before heading downstairs for breakfast.
The family photo with Henry was sent to her by Henry as soon as she finished her breakfast.
Melanie looked at the photo, feeling complicated.
Five people were in the photo, with Henry sitting in the middle. Cedric and Stella stood on one side while Eugene and she stood on the other end.
Under the warm light, her dress and Eugene broach looked to be matching.
Melanie looked at Eugene in the photo. Maybe because of the lighting, he looked gentler than usual.
His gaze looked less oppressive and sharp.
His dark pupils were like obsidian, black but glittering under the lights.
Eugene had always looked good in dark suits. He was well–built and had flawless skin. It made him look like a prince who women yearned for but could not get.
