Melanie instantly remembered what Stephen had said earlier. Someone in Oskon City was trying to bail Viola out.
It had to be Matthew. Melanie's expression darkened slightly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtYvonne was incredulous. “Medical parole? Are you kidding me? Eugene, why does this sound like something you'd do? Bailing her out like that... What kind of illness does she even have?” Melanie's gaze on Eugene turned a few degrees harder.
“It’s true!” Lee glanced at Eugene and refuted Yvonne's words from the driver's seat. “Someone in Oskon City has been pulling the strings. On the day the verdict was decided, LeapCo also pressed charges against Viola for her theft of trade secrets. Mr. Scott has been cooperating with the police for the past few days.
“But for sreason, we kept bumping into interference from Oskon City. We just don’t know who's behind it.” Melanie frowned slightly as Lee explained, while Yvonne snorted in disdain. “You sound convinced, don’t you? Are you saying Viola has another sugar daddy in Oskon City? If that’s true, Eugene, you really got cucked six ways to Sunday.” The car had out to answer the call without even looking back.
dinct stopped outside the villa when Yvonne's phone rang. She opened the door and got Melanie did not move. Eugene glanced at her, then back at Lee, who got out of the car decisively.
The moment the door opened, sof the rain drifted in.

Looking down at the handle, she said clearly, “Also- 272 “Please don’t say anything unnecessary to me. Not even words of concern.” With that, Melanie got out of the car.

Lee, who had just gotten back into the car, said hesitantly, “Mr. Scott, are we going back to the company or headquarters? The meeting arranged by the chairman is at three in the afternoon.” Eugene was silent for a moment before he said, “Let's go back to the office first. Have you settled the matters with Rockwater?” Lee glanced sideways at Eugene. He started to say something, then stopped.
While they were still in Oskon City, Eugene had made the arrangements to take care of the secrets Rockwater had stolen. Everyone in the company had worked overtconstantly to maximize the effects.
Eugene had been decisive, and Viola's whole fiasco had distracted Mason for a while, so the plan went smoothly albeit rather slowly.
Now, Rockwater was in disarray. The plan was only one step away from fruition.
However, they had to deal with headquarters and the chairman...
Lee felt a little worried.
