Chapter 56
Eugene immediately noticed her.
Expressionless, he saw Melanie looking at them with her face flushed red.
She was alone and looked more lonely and vulnerable than before.
Eugene’s expression changed slightly as he watched Melanie walk into the suite next to him.
When she walked past him, she paused, and Eugene could smell the alcohol on her.
Melanie felt herself going into a deep slumber. In the middle of the night, she felt thirsty and got up to drink some water.
However, she could not sleep again after getting up. Her phone happened to beep, and she saw a bank alert notification when she took her phone.
Eugene had transferred her 10,000 dollars.
It was probably her salary that night.
The news of Viola attending Stella’s birthday banquet spread in the company, and there was new gossip going around.
Yana asked Melanie secretly if it was true, and Melanie nodded.
This proved Eugene was serious about dating Viola.
Viola was an intern, and it would take her three months to get promoted.
Eugene was supposed to issue her the internship letter, but she was in the secretary department before this and forgot to change her department. Thus, she had to look for Melanie.
Viola graduated from Jepton University, a university with standards. Thus, it was strict about proof of internship.
When Melanie received her application, she still had a few other documents to deal with and other internship letters to issue.
After thinking about it, she said, “Come and get it tomorrow. I still have a few other tasks to deal with.”
Viola agreed and left.
Melanie then got herself busy. When she remembered about this matter the next day, Viola still had not come to look for her.
She thought Viola had asked someone else to issue it for her, so she did not ask about it. All she did was give out the other internship letters.
Little did she think that Yana would come to her again with gossip to share. “Viola is crying again. Even Mr. Scott can’t coax her.”
Just as she finished her words, the phone in the office rang. Melanie was asked to go up to the president’s office.
Chapter 56
Melanie lifted her eyebrow. She saw Viola crying with her face down on the desk when she went upstairs.
Viola was startled when she approached. Melanie stopped before her and asked, “Did I offend you somehow?”
The weeping Viola stopped her sobs and lifted her head. “Melanie, why didn’t you just tell me if you didn’t want to issue my internship letter?”
Melanie paused and looked at Viola as she said, “Viola, I told you to come to my office the next day, but you didn’t come.”
“I sent you an email and even messaged you.” Viola sobbed as she spoke. Her eyes, shimmering with tears, looked aggrieved.
“My university received the other interns‘ internship letters yesterday, but they didn’t receive mine. Melanie, you could’ve just told me if you couldn’t issue it. I could’ve looked for someone else.”
Melanie did not remember having Viola’s number. She went through her phone and found Viola’s messages in her work account.
Viola had only sent her two messages.
[Melanie, can you please sign my internship letter?]
[I’ve sent you an email.]
Just then, the door to Eugene’s office opened, and he knocked on the door frame. His voice was cold as he ordered, “Melanie, come in.”
Then, he looked at Viola. “You too.”
It seemed that Eugene had asked for Melanie’s presence because of Viola’s internship letter. He asked Melanie, “Why didn’t you issue Viola’s internship letter?”
Melanie pursed her lips and spoke only after a few seconds, “I told her to look for me. I was busy.”
