Chapter 662
Melanie knew Eugene well. He had always been cautious.
He would investigate anything that happened out of his expectation.
Not to mention something like that happened yesterday…
Even if she knew Viola did it and had informed Eugene of it, he would still investigate it.
He needed to verify the facts.
Lee knew what Melanie wanted to ask. He looked away guiltily and said, “Not yet. The accident was unexpected, and the servicing of the surveillance camera was too abrupt. It has to be investigated in detail.”
Melanie would not make things difficult for Lee. It had nothing to do with him.
She looked at her wrist and seemed to be pondering something.
Melanie stayed at the ward for two nights. Lee and Xander would visit her, yet Eugene was nowhere to be seen.
L
Lee told her he was busy.
Melanie knew the reason for that and did not say anything.
On the day she was discharged, Xander had to check on the samples with the client and could not
come over.
Yvette knew about it and came along with Eric.
Melanie did not know what to say. “I’m getting discharged, not moving houses.”
Yvette helped support her and said, “Getting discharged is something joyous, and the more, the merrier.”
Melanie wanted to ask about Redwaves, yet Eric and Yvette kept mentioning some other things. She could not interrupt them.
When they were at the hospital entrance, Yvette stood by her and waited.
Melanie asked, “Who are you waiting for?”
Yvette said frankly, “We’re waiting for the person here to pick you up.”
Just as she spoke, a black Bentley stopped before them. Lee got out of the car and asked Melanie, “Is there anything you
want me to put in the boot?”
Melanie froze, and before she could answer, Yvette said, “No. You only have to pick her up.‘
Lee opened the car door, and Melanie saw Eugene sitting inside.

Eugene was talking on the phone in the spacious SUV.
When the door opened, he glanced at them with a frown on his face.
Yvette urged Melanie, “Quickly get into the car. Eric and I have to return to the conference hall and cant accompany you
“Portunately, we met Mr. Scott, and you happen to be heading to the same place. So, he’ll be sending you back”
Melanie was reluctant to enter and said, “I don’t think we need to trouble Mr. Scott. I can hail a taxi.”
“Why do you need to hail a taxi? It’s peak hours now on the road, and you might have to wait very long to get a taxi.”
Arguing at the hospital entrance was inappropriate, and Eugene’s car was eye–catching.
Under Yvette and Eric’s urging, Melanie glanced at Eugene and entered the car.
After the door closed, Melanie smelled a faint fragrance in the car.
She looked ahead and did not turn toward Eugene.
Eugene hung up the call and looked at Melanie. He pondered before saying, “Are you trying to express Burning Star Studio’s displeasure toward LeapCo through your attitude?”
When he mentioned the two companies, Melanie recalled that Xander and him had argued.
Melanie pursed her lips and looked into Eugene’s eyes.
Her eyes were clear, and her voice was low. “Eugene, I want to talk to you.”
