Chapter 473_The Unfaithful Mr. Scott ( Melanie Smith )

Chapter 473

 When Mnie returned, she heard what Eugene said and hesitated for a moment at the door before pushing it open forcefully

 Seeing that she had returned, Henry handed the menu to her again, “Mel, take a look at what you’d like to eat.”

 Mnie did not refuse and ordered two simple dishes. However, she did not have much of an appetite to eat.

 Henry, on the other hand, was in a good mood and ate quite a bit. It was onlyter that Mnie stopped him from eating more as she was concerned for his digestion.

 Seeing that Mnie had hardly touched her food, Henry asked worriedly, “Mel, is the food not to your liking? It’s my fault. I ordered based on my taste.” 

 “It’s not that. I’ve been thinking about managing my figure recently. The food is delicious.” 

 Henry’s expression stiffened with displeasure. “You’re already so thin and you still want to manage your figure? You won’t look good. Youngdies should eat more and stay healthy.”

 Under his supervision, Mnie reluctantly drank half a bowl of chowder.

 After finishing their meal, Henry felt sleepy and wanted to go back to rest. Reluctant to part with Mnie, he said, “Mel, I won’t be leaving Jepton now that I’m here. If you have time,e and visit me more. I like your personality, unlike Eugene’s personality. He just makes me

 angry. 

 Mnie allowed him to hold her hand and whispered, “I will, Mr. Henry.”

 Henry signaled to the caregiver, who approached with a bag containing the jewelry. “Miss Smith, this is a gift from the old gentleman. He went all the way to Androst to pick it up. be very disappointed if you refuse it.

 With things reaching this point, Mnie found it difficult to insist on rejecting the gift no matter how reluctant she was.

 He’ll

 She could only ept the gift hesitatingly. She starteding up with a n to return the gift to Henry at ater date.

 Seeing that she had epted his gift, Henry came up to them with a cane in hand.

 With a serious expression, he reminded Eugene, “Eugene, you brought Mel here, so you’re responsible for taking her back home.”

 Eugene was looking at his phone and responded to the old man with a simple hum.

 Henry frowned, his temper rising. “Did you not hear what I said?”

 Eugene put away his phone, his expression indifferent. He was about to say something when Mnie said, “You should go back now. It’s about to get even hotter now.” 

 It was obvious what Henry was trying to do. He was trying to bring Eugene and her together.

 Henry left, and Mnie’s smile disappeared as she looked at Eugene. She said, “I’ll take a taxi back.” 

 Eugene had rolled up his shirt sleeves before they ate. Looking at the jewelry in Mnie’s hands, hemented sarcastically, “Can’t wait to show the gift off?” 

 Mnie paused. “If you mind it so much, why didn’t you stop him earlier?”

 “Would it have made a difference?” Eugene sneered.

 Mnie did not bother to argue further. She took out her phone to get a taxi.

 The mocking expression faded from Eugene’s face. His long eyshes drooped, covering his contemtive eyes. After a moment, he looked up again, his eyes deep and mysterious as he said with an unreadable emotion, “That jewelry set is worth a million.”

 Mnie frowned tightly, looking back at him. “What are you trying to say?” she asked angrily.

 Eugene’s emotionless gazended on her face. In that moment of eye contact, Mnie felt as if she had peered into the deep and cold depths of his eyes. It sent a shiver down her spine.

 His lips parted as he said coldly, “Since you’re so aloof, it’s better to avoid meeting him in the future. He’s eager to hand over the entire family to you.”

 Eugene’s tone made Mnie ufortable. He was the one who arranged for her to meet with Henry and now he was portraying her as someone who was coveting his family’s wealth.

 Her chest rose and fell, and her gaze on the man turned colder. “Eugene, you sure are good at shifting the me onto others.”
