Chapter 466
Melanie went out, and she happened to bump into Reny, who was counting things. She went over to
help.
Eugene had come for work reasons. He left after confirming that everything was in order. Melanie
followed him out into the car park and asked, “Are you satisfied today?”
He paused while opening the car door, his gaze deep as he looked at Melanie. “Which aspect are you
talking about?”
“The construction progress,” she replied.
He casually answered, “There’s an improvement compared to last time.”
His eyes suddenly stopped at Melanie’s left shoulder, his brows furrowing slowly.
Following his gaze, Melanie realized that she had gotten white dust on her clothes at some point. She
patted it off and then turned to Eugene, saying, “Since there’s nothing you’re not satisfied with, I’ll go
back to help. Mr. Scott, have a safe trip.”

evening sky was not too dark yet, and the evening breeze made his facial features appear somewhat
gentle.
His deep black eyes remained fixed on Melanie as he maintained his cold tone. “Don’t forget what you
promised me.”
He was referring to meeting his grandfather. Melanie nodded. “I won’t forget.”
Melanie and the group worked overtime at Burning Star Studio for several days. Melanie finally felt that
everyone could take a breather when Yvonne came over.
However, instead of worrying about the others, she immediately went up to Reny and Melanie. “Can
you two do me a favor?”
“What favor?”
“I’m going to attend a friend’s sister’s birthday banquet tonight, but I don’t want to go alone. Will you
two accompany me?”
Reny immediately refused. “Spare me, okay? I’ve been working the entire week, and this is only day
off. I’m not going anywhere.”

Melanie also did not want to go, considering Yvonne’s circle of friends mostly consisted of the scions of
Jepton. There might be a few who she knew. She did not want to deal with them as it was too much
trouble.
Yvonne clung to her arm and would not let go. “Mel, you can’t abandon me.”
Melanie was puzzled. “Don’t you have other friends? Get them to accompany you.”
“It’s not the same.” Yvonne shook her head and whispered, “Come on, Mel, just accompany
me.”
Melanie still wanted to refuse her, but she suddenly heard Xander say, “Is it Carlisle’s sister?”
Yvonne froze, and Xander clicked his tongue. “Disappointing.”

Melanie’s biggest impression of Carlisle was that Yvonne had bungee jumped three times for him. She
had initially thought Carlisle must be a playboy to make Yvonne act like that and totally did not expect
him to have a scholarly appearance.
He had fair skin, a slender figure, and wore a pair of frameless glasses. He also had slightly long black
hair, which gave him a somewhat melancholic look.
Melanie instinctively felt that Carlisle was either very cunning or had some underlying issues.
Yvonne also saw Carlisle, and her grip tightened around Melanie’s hand. She then lowered her head to
look at her phone, muttering, “Where is he?”
Melanie asked, “Who are you talking about?”
Yvonne raised her head, her tone playful. “My sweetheart boyfriend.”
Her voice was sweet as honey, and Melanie noticed that Carlisle had glanced in their direction with a
deep gaze.
