NovelEnglishChapter 568
After buying a bunch of things from the mall following Liana’s instructions, Melanie and Yvonne finally went to the hospital.
Liana was lying on the hospital bed and Yury was feeding her fruits.
“Oh, here we were running around while someone looks like she’s quite comfortable.”
Liana did not feel embarrassed. Instead, she took advantage of the situation and kissed Yury on the face before asking Yvonne
and Melanie, “Where’s the stuff I asked you to buy?”
“We bought everything. As if we dare skimp out on anything.” Yvonne took the items from Melanie and said, “I got a pregnant
woman to help me out too. As if I would skip out on buying your stuff.”
“Pregnant woman?” Liana was taken aback.
“She means me,” Melanie replied calmly.
Yvonne had asked her about telling Liana this while they were on the way. Melanie did not mind, after all, it was not something
that could be kept a secret
Liana blinked and blurted out, “Xander is going to be a dad?”
Melanie was unsure how to respond to the question. Yvonne intervened and said, “You’re overthinking it. Xander and Melanie
haven’t even started dating, don’t always assume Mel is your sister–in–law. Your brother hasn’t taken any action!”
After Yvonne’s reprimand, Liana looked at Melanie thoughtfully. After a moment, Melanie heard Liana ask seriously, “You haven’t
agreed to Xander yet because he hasn’t formally pursued you, right?”
Hearing that, Melanie was at a loss for words.
“I’m pregnant, but the child is not Xander’s,” she tried to explain.
“Can he be the child’s stepfather?” Liana asked. She then exchanged a glance
with Yvonne and they both nodded. “I think it’s not bad.”
Liana continued, “Raising a child is not a big deal in this day and age. Even if it’s not a child but a pig, it would still be my
nephew.”
What Liana said made sense but it still made Melanie’s head throb. She did not stay in the hospital for long, hastily saying
goodbye and leaving.
shocking things.
However, just after she exited the hospital gates, Eugene’s call came in. Thinking
of the recent unpleasantness, a thin mist of sweat appeared on Melanie’s
forehead.
She ended the call but before she could even keep it, it rang again. After a moment’s hesitation, she answered the call. Taking a
deep breath, she asked, What’s the matter?”
It was quiet on the other end. Suddenly, Eugene asked, “Where are you?”
Melanie remained silent.
There was an indiscernible meaningfulness in Eugene’s deep voice. “There’s something that might need you to explain to me.”
“What is it?”
“Why were you meeting with Mason?” Eugene asked, voice low.
Melanie instantly knew what happened. Viola was the one who told Eugene this.
Thinking this, she reckoned it was probably the evidence that Viola was referring to as well.
A hint of mockery flashed past Melanie’s face. She laughed lightly and she asked back evenly, “Do I need to report my personal
matters to you too, Mr. Scott?”
Eugene was silent for a moment before he asked again, “What kind of private matter could you possibly have with Mason?”
