StarNovel
Chapter 646
After the doctor left, Melanie rubbed her temples and said, “Thank you for sending me to
the hospital.
She would not be ungrateful. If not for Eugene, she may not even have made it to the
hospital tonight.
Eugene held her checkup report in his hand. After flipping through it a few times, he
looked up. “Take leave from the summit.”
Melanie pursed her lips and did not say anything. She had heard what the doctor had said
just now. It was true that she needed to recuperate.
In fact, she had been tense every day for the past few days. She kept feeling that
someone was following her from behind and that uneasiness meant she could not rest
well.
Even so, she would be hard–pressed to leave the summit.
The summit was not long to begin with. It was only extended to a mere two weeks even
after various
factors such as the clash with Redwaves.

Plus, Xander and the others had high expectations of her before she came here.
Melanie did not want to let them down and miss this opportunity.
Her brows drew together in a barely perceptible frown, and it was obvious she was
reluctant to take the time off. Eugene turned to Lee instead, commanding, “Buy some
dinner and bring it up. Get something light.”
Howard said that he wanted to treat them to dinner, but in fact, they had only taken a
one–sided scolding without eating a single bite.
Melanie looked up. “You should go
back and eat. I can rest here by myself.”
Lee had not gone out yet. He looked hesitantly at Eugene, but when he saw the look in his
boss‘ eyes, he quickly left the ward.
Eugene turned his gaze back to Melanie’s face. He sat down on the sofa next to her and
asked her casually, “Don’t you know about Lee’s relationship with my grandfather?”
“When Lee first joined headquarters, my grandfather was still in charge. He single–
handedly raised
Lee to where he is now.”
Melanie blinked. She had not known that.

However, it made sense. They were all the way here in Oskon City, but the old man still
knew about everything that had happened to them.
She did not say anything else. Eugene stayed because he did not want Lee to report his
neglect to his grandfather. Melanie could not deal with that now, so she could only close
her eyes and rest.
She ended up oversleeping. When she woke up, there was already food on the coffee
table. Eugene was sitting on the sofa with a notebook in front of him, dealing with some
work.
He lifted his face at Melanie’s movement, the weariness in his eyes instantly dissipating.

awake?”
Melanie nodded. “Why didn’t you wake me up?”
“You need to sleep more if you want to recover quickly.”
The food tasted mild, and Melanie lost her appetite after a few bites. The restaurant’s
cooking could really stand to be improved.
Eugene did not eat much, either. He had just packed up and headed out when Melanie’s
phone rang. It was Xander.
Melanie looked out the window at the dark sky. When she picked up the phone, she did her
best to hide the exhaustion and weakness in her voice. “What’s wrong? Why are you
calling so late?”
Xander said, “My flight has been brought forward. I’ll be in Oskon City tomorrow.”
Melanie paused. “Why was it brought forward?”
“There was a change in the schedule.” Xander could hear the hesitation in her tone. He
lowered his eyes and was silent for a moment before asking her, “Do you not want me to
come to Oskon City?”
