StarNovelChapter 537
The vast office was quite empty, and Stella was loud. Melanie could not pretend that she did not hear a thing.
Her relationship with Stella had always been strangers who knew each other a little. There was a time when Melanie had tried
her best to get into Stella’s good graces for Eugene’s sake.
In the end, she realized that Stella would never like her no matter what she did. That was when Melanie eventually stopped
fawning over Stella.
She would only see Stella during parties or celebrations at the Scott household or when Stella needed her help with something.
Most of the time, Melanie would just treat helping Stella as part of her job scope.
She was able to tolerate the situation better once she saw it as part of her job.
When Melanie did not react to Stella’s words, a condescending look appeared on her exquisitely groomed face. She turned to
Evelyn and said, “You should watch over Eugene once both of you are married. The company is an important place. Not
everyone should be let inside here so easily.”
Evelyn followed Stella’s gaze and looked toward Melanie. She raised an eyebrow in amusement. “I’m not familiar with LeapCo’s
rules, but at my mother’s company, no fired employee is allowed to return.”
Evelyn asked Melanie, “I heard that you’ve been coming to LeapCo quite often because of work. How smart of you to take a
different approach with Eugene.”
There were no emotions in Melanie’s eyes. She glanced at Evelyn coldly. “It’s my responsibility to make sure everything runs well
in the partnership between LeapCo and Burning Star.
“If there’s anything you two aren’t happy about, please feel free to talk to Mr. Scott about terminating the contract. Burning Star
wouldn’t mind at all.”
Her tone was cold, and she sat down right opposite them. “Burning Star will be very grateful if both of you can convince Mr. Scott
to terminate the contract. We’d be paid three times the price for LeapCo’s breach of contract. I thank both of you in advance on
behalf of Burning Star.”
Melanie said all this in a calm and collected manner. The look on Stella’s expression changed.
She glared at Melanie. “What right do you have to negotiate terms with me?”
“I think you’re mistaken, Madam Scott.” Melan. ?
continued stoically, “I’m not negotiating
terms with you. I’m just giving both of you a suggestion.
“If you don’t like me coming over to LeapCo, we might as well terminate the contract...”
A man’s low and intimidating voice was heard. “Terminate the contract? Do you think LeapCo

is made out of fools, Melanie?”
Eugene came over with a frosty look on his face. His gaze stopped for a while on Melanie’s face, and he later looked at Stella to
ask, “What are you doing here?”
Stella was unhappy with his attitude. However, Evelyn was present, so she held back her temper to say, “Evelyn wants to gain
experience and learn from you, so I brought her over. You’re getting married in the future, anyway. It’s a good opportunity for you
to spend time getting to know each other better.”
Eugene looked at her stoically. There was a dark look in his deep eyes. He had a nice-looking jawline, and he was wearing a
dark gray suit that made him look even more serious.
He looked at Evelyn and asked in a low voice, “Don’t you have enough to learn at Ms. Turner’s company?”
A small smile appeared on Evelyn’s red lips. She replied cheerfully, “What can I learn from my family’s business? No one dares
let me do anything. Why don’t you just teach me, Eugene? You don’t need to give in to me on anything just because of my mom.”
“Evelyn wants to learn from you. Just take her with you and spend some time getting to know each other better,” Stella quickly
said after Evelyn was done. She even added after that, “It would do good to stop some people from having any wishful thinking.”
The last sentence was clearly meant for Melanie. Stella had grown up with a silver spoon, and she was used to being the person
at the top of the pyramid. After what happened with Cedric, she was even more convinced of how important a person’s family
background was.
She truly looked down on Melanie and her family.
