Chapter 589
When they turned to leave, Melanie could feel someone’s gaze on her, but she had no idea if it was
Matthew or Eugene.
When they entered the elevator, Hugh asked her, “Did I perform badly just now?”
Melanie looked at him from the side. “What do you need to perform?”
“Yvonne told me to be guarded against Eugene Scott. Should I have been more intimate with you in
front of him?” Hugh asked thoughtfully.
Melanie had no idea what Yvonne had told Hugh. She explained, “You don’t need to take Yvonne’s
words so seriously.”
“Alright,” Hugh replied and after that, there was silence between them.
Hugh’s room was a floor above Melanie’s and Melanie got out of the elevator when she got to her
floor.
Compared to Eugene, Melanie was more concerned with Matthew.

Melanie had a lot on her mind and she was in a daze.
She sat on the sofa for a long time as she went deep in thought, and she was feeling unsettled and
frustrated.
Melanie’s impression of Howard stopped in the Summer when she was fifteen.
She had just graduated from junior high school and managed to get into one of the top high schools in
the country. Melanie had secretly given Howard a call back then.
Howard was no longer the warm and gentle person in her memory. He sounded forced and tired over

Eugene was standing there with a stoic expression when she opened the door.
Melanie had taken off her coat when she returned to the room and she was wearing only her shirt. Her

She was clearly not in a good mood. She blocked the door and was not planning to let Eugene in.
Eugene looked down and passed her a file. “I hope you can submit a report of the summit’s summary
as soon as possible.”
Melanie looked at the file. “It’s only been two days at the summit and you’re already expecting me to
submit a summary report?”
“I need to remind you that Mr Fuller’s portion of the report is stand-alone. His report matches the
project LeapCo and Burning Star are working together on.”
Eugene said this so naturally as if this was just a small and normal matter.
Melanie took the file from him. There was a complicated look hidden deep inside Melanie’s eyes and
she looked at Eugene hesitantly.

Eugene raised an eyebrow. His dark eyes saw through Melanie immediately. “Just say what’s on your
