StarNovelere discussing something unrelated to himself.
Chapter 572
However, the sarcasm in his eyes was anything but subtle. Cedric’s courage to remove those unfavorable to him from the board,
even if it meant kicking out his son, and bringing in the ambitious Hel family, deserved commendation.
Eugene’s words provoked Cedric and he slapped the desk angrily, glaring back at his son. He pointed his finger at him, chest
heaving as he roared, “What nonsense are you talking! Do you think there’ll still be a place for you once the He family takes over
all the shares? And don’t think it’s because of someone else that they gained power! It’s all because of the mess you created at
LeapCo!”
Eugene’s expression remained icy. Apart from work–related matters, there was almost no normal communication between him
and Cedric. Interests trumped everything for Cedric, even his own son.
Eugene replied, although his tone was not as oppressive as Cedric’s, it still carried a deep sense of coldness. “You better!”
Cedric vented before slowly calming down and sizing up Eugene. After a moment, he suppressed all his emotions and asked in
a calm tone, “I heard you previously sponsored a charity center with Theodore.”
Eugene suddenly looked up, his dark pupils carrying an undeniable chill.
Cedric snorted coldly. “I heard you also sponsored a little girl. Engaging in charity can enhance our social image, but it’s better to
be careful when it comes to selecting beneficiaries. I heard the child’s parents are currently being held in the police station.
Wasn’t it Melanie who reported them?”
He looked at Eugene with a meaningful gaze.
With the increasing workload at Burning Star, Melanie’s professional knowledge grew. Though she was not yet a full–fledged
professional, she could provide good feedback on clients‘ common professional issues.
Slowly, Xander began delegating all the business matters to her. Melanie dedicated all her time outside work to learn. Reny and
postgraduate entrance exams.
Melanie paused, her mind pondering for a moment. “Part–time graduate studies do seem like a good idea. It allows for a more
systematic learning approach,” she said finally.

Yvonne was speechless. “I was just making a joke. Why are you taking it so seriously?”
Melanie replied, “I just think your idea is quite good.”
Yvonne waved her hand, indicating she did not want to talk anymore. Xander happened to enter with a glass jar that he placed
directly in front of Melanie.
“What’s this?” Melanie asked.
Xander turned his face slightly and coughed softly. “Fruit candy, a friend gave it to me. It’s sweet and sour, quite delicious.”
Recently, he often brought Melanie various snacks, claiming they were gifts from his friends. Melanie was curious about who this
friend was who had so much free time to prepare all these snacks..
However, thinking about what Yvonne said just now, she could not help but suggest, “I’m thinking about pursuing a part–time
master’s degree to study professional knowledge seriously. Do you think it’s okay?”
She expected Xander to approve, but to her surprise, he hesitated for a moment and said in a deep voice, “It might not be
feasible.”
