Chapter 63

Melanie remained silent and dropped them off at GT. With Simon and others around, Eugene would

have plenty of people willing to give him a ride.

After reaching home, Melanie did not immediately shower and sleep. However, in the middle of the

night, her sleep was disturbed by the sound of her phone.

Eugene’s icy voice came through the phone without much emotion. “Come and pick me up.‘

Hearing the rain outside, Melanie huddled further under her blanket. “You can take a taxi.”

Eugene hung up just as she said that. Unwilling to go out in the cold rain, Melanie stayed put. However,

three minutes later, her phone rang again with the same cold and indifferent voice saying, “Come and

pick me up.”

Melanie said nothing, and the call ended. Three minutes later, the phone rang again. The calls

continued, disrupting Melanie’s sleep. After one more call from Eugene, Melanie finally sighed and

replied reluctantly, “Fine.”

With that, Eugene’s persistence ceased. After silently changing into some dry clothes, Melanie made

her way to GT. In the rainy depths of the night, she drove slowly, and by the time she reached GT, half

an hour had passed.

The bar was still crowded, and Melanie failed to locate Eugene. She asked the bartender, who

informed her that Simon’s group had left earlier.

The next day, Melanie looked quite worn out after having stayed up late the night before. In contrast,

Viola appeared lively.

The planning for Oceanus was challenging, and Melanie had some questions to clarify with Eugene.

When Viola was about to tag along with her, Melanie curtly said, “You’re not done with your form yet.”

That kept her in her seat.

Melanie went upstairs. Eugene was on a video call and signaled for her to wait. She stood there,

surveying the surroundings. The layout had not changed much, but it always felt different from

Melanie’s memories. Perhaps it was due to the conspicuously placed decorations.

After Eugene ended the call, he looked at Melanie and asked with a frown, “Didn’t rest well last night?”

Melanie hesitated for a moment and replied, “You asked me to pick you up last night, but you weren’t at

the bar.”

“Did I?” Eugene did not seem too concerned, his eyebrows just twitching slightly. “I probably got drunk

and didn’t notice,” he said casually in the end.

Those seemingly indifferent words registered in Melanie’s ears like a slap to the face, making her feel

absurdly ridiculous. She thought she had at least become something like a habit for Eugene, but she

realized she was nothing more than a joke to him when he was drunk.

A painful sensation seemed to fill Melanie’s bones, making her feel as though she had been

submerged in seawater. As she descended the stairs, she bumped into someone from HR who was

delivering the list of newly hired employees along with their salary details.

Melanie checked the list and found no issues with it. Just when she was about to return it, she noticed

Viola’s name at the end of the list.

New employees who joined the company as the president’s secretary would always receive a bonus as

an incentive. Eugene was always generous in this regard.

However, Melanie noticed that Viola was missing her bonus. Did Eugene forget? The HR employee

noticed Melanie staring at the list with furrowed brows and thought there might be a problem with it.

They asked, “Melanie, is everything okay?”

Melanie snapped out of her thoughts and shook her head. “It’s nothing.”

It had nothing to do with her if Eugene had forgotten about it or not.

“Oh, let me go with you.” Pushing aside her thoughts, Melanie returned the list and followed the person

to the HR department.

Melanie went to update her contract after realizing that her last renewal had been three years ago.

There were less than three months left until it expired.
