Melanie’s hand was clenched into a fist, and her lips moved as she wanted to say something.

The car jerked suddenly, and she fell toward Eugene’s side uncontrollably.This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

Eugene’s minty scent assailed her nostrils as she fell into his arms. Her head happened to bump into his shoulder, and it hurt. The driver apologized as he turned around, “There was a pit just now. Please forgive me. Are you both alright?”

Melanie had fallen on Eugene’s body. When she tried to get up, she felt tension on her scalp as if her hair had stuck onto something.

Subconsciously, she tried to find the source of the tension. Her hand brushed against the cloth, and she saw her hair stuck on a button.

“Are you doing things to this extent to get your leave approved?” Eugene’s sarcastic voice sounded as he looked at Melanie, who was grabbing his button.

Melanie froze as she explained, “My hair is stuck on your button.”

Her hair was long and curly. The strands stuck on Eugene’s button were straight because of the tension. Melanie could not undo it single-handedly, so she could only use two hands.

However, she still failed to get her hair off Eugene’s button.

Melanie’s brows furrowed. Her head was leaning against Eugene’s shoulder, and she could feel his breath. Annoyance surged in her, and her actions became rougher.

“Are you trying to tear my shirt by being so rough?” Eugene’s arm circled Melanie’s shoulder as he undid the hair stuck on his button.

His palm was warm when it was placed on her hand. His action was gentle and careful.

Melanie did not dare to move as Eugene was hugging her intimately. He was close to her and gentle.

Her hair was no longer tangled, and she snapped out of her thoughts as she silently looked at Eugene.

Biting her lip, she said, “Thanks.”

Eugene looked at her and smirked as he said, “How long do you want to lean on me?”

Melanie realized she was still leaning against Eugene’s embrace. However, she noticed that Eugene’s arm was still around her.

She lifted her eyebrow and squeezed out of his embrace. Then, she sat straight, trying to speak as formally as possible, “We’re almost there.”

Eugene noticed Melanie's expression, and his emotions faded.

When they arrived at Peyton's place, Evelyn was also around.

She observed for a while before saying, “Looks like you’re more sincere today, Mr. Scott.” Melanie guessed her words were in reference to Eugene not bringing Viola along.

However, they were about to sign the contract. Thus, Evelyn stopped mocking, especially since Peyton had beckoned her to restrain herself.

Peyton sat by the office table as she glanced at Eugene. She was not quite pleased with this collaboration.

Although the company’s best business partner was LeapCo, Eugene had been rude the last time, and it infuriated Peyton.

Melanie had been working as a secretary for years and was observant. Although she did not know how Eugene convinced Peyton to sign the contract, she could see Peyton’s displeasure.

They had wasted a lot of time in Prime City, and with Dylan’s matter, Melanie wanted to get the contract signing settled so that she could leave.

She observed Peyton’s expression and took a deep breath as she walked ahead. “Ms. Taylor.” Peyton did not even care to put on an act before Melanie. Her expression turned gloomy.
