The Unfaithful Mr. Scott Novel novel Chapter 353

Chapter 353 

Stephen frowned, wanting to say something but ultimately failing. Yvonne did not care. 

She casually handed the gift she brought and said with a smile, “I didn’t expect you to care about others so much. But it’s best if you speak less today.” 

Yvonne lowered her voice mysteriously and continued, “I heard busybodies often get into trouble. You’re celebrating your birthday today. Don’t make things difficult for yourself.” 

Viola’s eyes widened in disbelief, but Yvonne had already pulled Melanie’s hand. “Let’s go, Mel. Miss Shaw knew you’d be here, and she even welcomes you. You should accept her kindness and join the party.” 

Her words were straightforward, and she said that on purpose. Melanie did not put on any expression. “Alright. We’ll stay–even though this party seems quite boring.” 

Eugene stood beside Viola with a cold expression, not showing much of an expression. He took a glance at Melanie. 

“Eugene, long time no see.” Stephen’s gentle voice sounded. Eugene froze and looked at him. 

Stephen smiled, but there was also a helpless look on his face. “She worked in LeapCo for many years. You don’t have to treat her like this. Why don’t you let the relationship end peacefully?” 

Eugene glanced at Stephen in displeasure. “Are you standing up for her again?” 

He then scoffed. “One after another. How interesting.” 

Stephen knew Eugene was being sarcastic again, and his smile faded. 

He had no intention of attending the party either; he was forced to come. 

Anything to do with socializing was not just about emotions anymore. Moreover, if they belonged to the same social circle, they would have to face each other on many formal occasions. 

Moreover, Viola was not the protagonist of the event today… 

When they entered the venue, Yvonne took Melanie to the corner of the room to sit on the sofa there. She had promised to leave after showing her face. 

Stephen left alone, saying he wanted to look for someone. 

The sofa happened to face the door, and Melanie could see the people walking in. Melanie knew most of them. They were all the children of wealthy businessmen. 

Viola’s birthday party was a grand affair. 

When Eugene and Viola walked in, a young man followed them in. He had a carefree smile, and his hair was dyed blue. 

Melanie glanced at him only for a second before looking away. 

“That man is Bernard Qaisa from the Qaisa family of Oskon City. My dad said LeapCo’s future in Oskon City depends on whether they can get the Qaisa family’s help,” said Yvonne.

Her father had also told her it would be best if she could get Bernard’s favor and marry him, but Yvonne did not tell Melanie this. 

Yvonne’s father was the governor of Jepton Bank, so many came to socialize with her. 

They were not sincere, and each had their motives. 

Yvonne brushed off some of them and excused herself to go to the toilet.
