Melanie was seldom so straightforward. She wanted to leave right after taking the documents.
However, Viola spoke in a stuttering voice, “Melanie, I know you don’t like me, but…”
She seemed like she was hesitating to speak. Melanie turned around and calmly continued what Viola
intended to say, “But I shouldn’t have said something like that?”
Viola did not answer, yet her expression had revealed her thoughts. Melanie had said exactly what was
on her mind.
“Would you be more professional if I didn’t put things straight today?” Melanie was still calm, her
emotions not fluctuating one bit. She reminded Viola, “With your ability, you won’t be able to work in
LeapCo for long.”
However, it did not matter even if Viola was incapable of the job. Eugene would protect her and keep
her in the company.

After Melanie left, she did not care that Viola would cry in front of Eugene and cry in grief. She brought
the documents to the hotel, and then decided to head to the hospital.
She could change her clothes, but she was in a bad mood and did not want to do that or stay at the
hotel. Thus, she headed to the hospital.
However, when she arrived at the hospital, she received a call from Xander asking if she wanted to
attend the workshop.
Melanie was on medical leave that day, so she did not have to work. She could not be bothered to
know if Eugene remembered. After all, he already had Viola by his side.
After promising Xander she would be there, she changed her clothes.
The people from yesterday were still at the workshop. Melanie heard Reny’s displeased voice as soon
as she arrived. Even Oliver’s retorting voice could be heard, but Xander was nowhere
to be seen.
Melanie stopped at the door, hesitating to enter.
Reny noticed her and greeted her enthusiastically, “Melanie, you’ve arrived! Xander received a call and
went out. He told us to help you with what you want to learn.”
Melanie nodded. “Thank you.”
Reny was a joyful and straightforward person. After knowing what Melanie wanted to learn, she started
teaching Melanie the basics all afternoon.
When Melanie’s time was up and she had to leave, Reny added her contact number and told her she
could ask her anything through WhatsApp.
Melanie happened to bump into Xander when she headed out.
Xander’s shoulders were a little wet. When he saw that Melanie was about to leave, he said, It’s raining
outside. I’ll give you a lift.”
It would rain frequently in Prime City during summer, so Melanie accepted his offer.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmXander was not a talkative man. He only said a few words about the art exhibition and nothing
more.
When they arrived at the hotel, the rain was pouring. He pulled closer to the lobby door to let Melanie
get out of the car without getting drenched in the rain.
Unexpectedly, Melanie bumped into Eugene, who was walking out of the hotel with Viola behind him.
Eugene froze upon seeing her, and he glanced at Xander behind her.
His gaze turned a little gloomy.
Melanie looked down and greeted him, “Are you going out?”
Eugene lifted his eyebrow as he said indifferently, “Melanie, do you think you can skip work just
because you’re good at your job?”
It was as though he was trying to mock her for reprimanding Viola that morning.
Eugene protected Viola and could not accept anyone saying anything bad about her.
Melanie said nothing for a few seconds before answering, “I already applied for medical leave from you
that day.”
