The Unfaithful Mr. Scott Novel novel Chapter 349

Chapter 349 

Melanie gripped her phone. “I’m going out to take this call.” 

With that, she took her phone and left the villa. 

The ringing continued. The call was an unknown number from Hearth City, but Melanie could guess who it was. 

Recently, she had received calls from Hearth City every day. At first, it was Dylan, but after Melanie blacklisted her, the calls came from a different number every time. 

She had a pile of messages from different numbers now. They were either scolding her for being an unfilial daughter or begging her to answer the phone. The latest message was a threat, saying she would regret it if she did not answer the phone. 

Melanie picked up the call. After a moment of silence, George’s sinister voice came across the receiver. “Melanie, you finally picked up the phone.” 

“I told Dylan not to contact me again.” 

George sneered. “If you don’t want to contact her, so be it, but she’s your mother. Why shouldn’t she try to call you? Don’t you care about your mother?” 

Melanie interrupted coldly when she heard his voice. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up now

“Give me another five hundred thousand dollars!” George quickly growled at her. “You have so much money, anyway. I heard that you’re still keeping that old fart in the hospital? If you ask me, that’s just a waste of money! It’s only a matter of time before he does. Why don’t you just give the money to your mother and me instead?” 

George spoke matter–of–factly, and the coldness in Melanie’s eyes grew. She asked, “Where’s Dylan?” 

She did not care about the money she had transferred to Dylan last time, and she did not want to investigate if Dylan was lying to her. She only hoped that Dylan would keep her word and stay away from her from now on. 

However, it was now obvious that Dylan had been lying to her again. 

“Stop asking questions and just pay up!” 

If I do pay you, how much will you ask for next time?” Melanie’s expression did not change. She did not even bother to change her tone. She only said, “I won’t give you a single cent.” 

Melanie went back to the villa. Xander had told them all about what had happened, and the group was discussing where they were going to celebrate. 

Reny asked her, “Before I came here, I saw that there’s a famous grilled fish restaurant in Jepton. It’s in the north of the city. Do you know where it is?” 

Melanie did not care much for food, but she had heard Yana talk about it before. She nodded. ” I know.” 

However, she did not expect this meal to be so unpleasant. 

The north of the city was an old district, and it was not as well–developed as the south of the city. She was a little surprised to see Simon here. 

After all, once when she accompanied Eugene to a gathering, Simon heard that she was from the north of the city and turned his nose up in disdain. 

In Simon’s eyes, a backward old town was no different from a slum. 

Simon seemed to see her too, but for once, he did not come over to pick a fight. Instead, he turned and went into the soup bar next door. It looked like it had just opened. 

Reny pulled Melanie into the grilled fish shop. The fish there was fresh and grilled to perfection.
