Chapter 748 As soon as Melanie returned to the villa, Yvonne shoved her into the bathroom. “Hurry up and take a shower before you catch a cold. If you fall sick, Xander and Stephen will never lethear the end of ie.” Melanie did not resist, letting out a sigh of satisfaction when the warm water drenched her body.
When she cout of the shower, Yvonne was sitting on the sofa scrolling through her phone.” Good, you're done. Is there anywhere you want to go? Reny askedfor new year holiday destinations in the group.” Melanie blinked. “Are you guys going on a trip?” Yvonne looked at her. “Didn’t we all decide to go on holiday together during the new year?” Melanie had completely forgotten about that. She had been busy with work and then with the court case. Plus, no one had mentioned it during her tin the hospital.

Melanie sat in the living room for a moment, then got up and went back into the study.
Although Jackson had given them the qualifications to join the bidding, they still had to secure the deal with their own abilities.
While Melanie was hospitalized, Xander took over her responsibilities. Now that she was back, she should pick up the slack again.
However, her phone rang not long after she turned on the computer. It was Matthew.
Melanie's eyebrows twitched. She had a bad feeling JN After hesitating for a moment, she picked up the call. Matthew's voice was soft across the speakers. “I heard you were discharged from the hospital.” Melanie clenched her hands and tried to keep her voice steady. “How did you know?” Matthew did not answer. He stopped for a moment before saying, “You're a little smarter than | thought.” Melanie did not respond. She was waiting for Matthew to continue.

“Melanie.” His tone did not change. It was as if he was talking about nothing important in particular.
“Let's make a deal.” Eugene went straight to GT Bar after the meeting at the headquarters. Simon sat in the corner and raised his glass to him from afar. “You're finally here, you busy bee. | practically had to beg you to come.” His tone was mocking. Eugene looked at him expressionlessly and said simply, “I was busy.” “Oh, | know. You were so busy you went all the way to Oskon City to be with Melanie. Tsk-tsk... Eugene, I'm impressed.” Eugene looked up at him. His eyes were even darker under the dim light, but Simon was not bothered. He retorted, “Don’t look atlike that, Eugene. I'm not the kind of jerk who would get in the way of his friend's relationships.” He raised his eyebrows. “We're mates. Eugene. You wouldn't embarrasslike this, right?” Eugene did not say anything. He lowered his gaze and poured himself a glass of wine. Then he threw his head back and drained it.
The smile slowly faded from Simon's face. A vein throbbed in his forehead.
After Eugene put down his wine glass in silence, he suddenly slammed his glass down and cursed. ” Fuck you!”
