DRAMA NOVEL ONLINE Chapter 859
Chapter 859
Before, in Eugene's ward, Melanie had seen William once. However, it was just a
fleeting glance. Now, she finally got a clear look at him.
Apart from the striking resemblance to Cedric in facial features, he was the
opposite in temperament.
If Cedric was overtly intimidating, then William gave off a hypocritical
temperament.
He was deceitful.
He was smiling as he spoke, yet behind his spectacles, his eyes were filled with
schemes.
Melanie did not like being around such people. It was always uncomfortable
being treated as prey.
She stood up. “Since Mr. Scott is busy now, I'll excuse myself.”
William chuckled. “Ms. Smith, why are you in such a hurry to leave? Your friend
will take care of your daughter, and there won't be another Timothy who'd try to
snatch her away, right?”
Melanie's heart skipped a beat, but she remained calm. She looked at William.
“What do mean?”
you
William casually replied, “Ms. Smith, you brought your daughter back to Jepton
and didn’t bring her along today, so it must be because a friend is helping you
take care of her. Plus, everyone in Jepton knows about Timothy's situation.”
There was a hint of sarcasm in William's eyes. “Eugene is known for acting
impulsively for a
woman's sake.”
“Mr. Thames,” Melanie said coldly, lifting her chin slightly in a manner familiar to
those who knew her well. Melanie usually gave this look when she was annoyed.
She stared at William and said, “How you speak makes me uncomfortable.
There's no need to beat
about the bush. Just say what you want.“
William deliberately mentioned Meredith and Timothy as if implying something.
He was putting on quite a show.
Although Melanie was used to dealing with all sorts of people in the business
world, even those difficult to get along with, she could not muster the same
composure with William for some reason.
She rarely had such strong resistance toward someone she was not even
familiar with. It was likely that their temperaments clashed.
However, even though she was being direct, William only showed a hint of
coldness in his eyes without displaying any displeasure.
He nodded. “I just heard some things about you and Eugene in the past. I found
your situation regrettable. You seemed like a perfect match, but...”
William sighed regretfully. “It's a pity things turned out the way they did.”
He paused before adding with a look of pity, “It almost cost you your child
Melanie sneered deep down. Cedric called her here because of Eugene? That
was a misjudgment.
She looked at William expressionlessly and interrupted his act, saying calmly,
“You've misunderstood. Eugene and I are not as entangled as you think. Both of
us are on separate paths, and Meredith's existence is also due to an accident.
“If you feel you can gain anything from Eugene through me, you're mistaken.
“You should go to Violet or Evelyn.”
