Chapter 368
When Melanie reached the hospital entrance, she coincidentally bumped into Stella, who was carrying
a suitcase from the direction of the elevator. Melanie remembered seeing Stella at the hospital last time
as well, just before the new year.
It was no wonder that she encountered Eugene at the hospital last night. Stella must have been there
too.
Stella noticed Melanie and gave her a quick once–over. She then sneered. “What are you doing
standing here while looking so horrendous? Are you planning to scam another unsuspecting victim?”
Melanie was a bit disheveled now and lacked the energy to respond. She pretended not to hear the
woman and continued on her way.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStella, however, seemed to deliberately walk past her with her suitcase as she coldly remarked, “What
a lowly and pathetic scum of society.”
When Melanie finally reached the North district, her clothes were soaked with sweat. She wanted to
change but could not manage it herself due to the splint. After sitting around for a while, she called
Yvonne.
Yvonne answered quickly. Melanie hesitated for a moment before asking, “Are you busy?”
Yvonne looked at the person next to her and leaned to the side slightly. “What’s up? You can tell me.”
“I hurt my shoulder. Can you come over and help me?” Melanie’s voice was weak as if saying those
words had drained most of her strength.
Yvonne readily agreed. After ending the call, she looked at the person beside her and said, ” Simon,
my friend needs me for something. I have to go.”
Simon had been chatting with others. When he heard Yvonne’s words, he raised an eyebrow and
asked, “Which friend is this?”
Yvonne glared at him. “It’s none of your business. I already told you I’m dealing with my dad. Mind your
own business.”
Simon scoffed. “As if I care.”
With that, Yvonne left with her heels clicking behind her. The people around Simon looked at him and
asked, “Simon, are you really going after Yvonne? I heard your families have been getting close lately.”
“Shut it.” Simon’s face flashed with annoyance. “Who would be interested in someone like Yvonne?”
“That’s for the best. Besides, Yvonne got into that huge fight with Carlisle back in the day. Everyone in
Jepton knows about it.”
“Carlisle Atwood?” Simon raised an eyebrow.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Yeah, when you were racing in Australia, Yvonne pursued Carlisle for a long time. When their families
were finally about to make things official, Yvonne suddenly dumped him and went abroad, Carlisle also
went abroad after that, and he hasn’t returned since.”
The impatience on Simon’s face grew as he listened. He then raised a hand to stop the person from
rambling on.
At the same time at LeapCo’s office building, Eugene had just signed a document when his phone that
he had placed nearby rang. It was a call from the Jepton Police Station.
“Mr. Scott, we’re calling regarding the altercation at the hospital last night. As you were the only witness
on the scene, we need your testimony. Please come over as soon as possible to cooperate with the
investigation.”
