The Unfaithful Mr. Scott

Melanie was about to leave when she slowed down and looked at Dylan. “Do you think you could’ve gotten the money from Eugene Scott if | hadn’t shown up?”

|...” Dylan stammered and looked away. “I don’t think | was wrong. You already have an intimate relationship with him, and he should be giving you some money, no matter what. I’m doing this for your own good!”

Dylan thought she was being reasonable about this and even said it louder to Melanie.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Melanie tried to hold back her temper as she looked at Dylan. “Relationship? What sort of intimate relationship are you talking about?”

Dylan noticed Melanie was getting upset and shut up.

Melanie looked at her, thinking what a joke Dylan was.

She was actually her mother!

However, Dylan was trying to exchange her pride and dignity for money!

Melanie felt emotional about this. She ignored Dylan as she ran into the rain to get her car. Every step Melanie took landed in a puddle. She hated the rain.

Dylan was frightened by Melanie’s temper, and she sat in the car silently. Her phone rang multiple times. Someone was calling her.

Melanie saw from the corner of her eyes that the calls were from George.

She had no idea what Dylan saw in him. She would have tried to talk Dylan into leaving him if this was before, but now, she did not care at all.

Melanie dropped Dylan off at her motel. That was when she finally calmed down.

She looked at Dylan and locked her car. After a while, she said, “I really wanted to just die with- you in a car crash just now.” Melanie sounded calm and at peace when she said that, but there was intense hatred in her eyes. It scared Dylan tremendously. She continued asking, “Why did you go to see Eugene Scott?”

“|... 1...” Dylan had no idea what to say. This was the first time she had seen Melanie look so cold and disgusted at her.

Dylan panicked. She could not help crying. She said in a low voice, “I really have no choice. You know that | need the money, but you refuse to give it to me...”

“And you think you can get it from Eugene Scott?”

“Listen to me, Mel. You have several hundred thousand, right? Can you give me the money?” Melanie looked frostily at the expectant look in Dylan’s eyes.

She was still thinking about Eugene’s money.

There was nothing else for Melanie to say.

She unlocked the door and said quietly, “Pack your luggage. I’m taking you to the airport. You’re going back to Hearth City.”

Who knew what trouble Dylan would continue to cause if she stayed here? Melanie was determined to send her home. Alook of astonishment flashed in Dylan’s eyes. She stared at Melanie blankly. “When will you be giving me the money?” Dylan would not give up if she did not get the 500 grand.

Melanie said slowly, “Do you know Grandpa is in the hospital waiting for surgery?”

Dylan was taken aback and repeated blankly, “Give me the money and you can come back to take care of him.” Melanie was about to blow up. She wanted to say something, but her phone suddenly rang.

She looked at her phone and frowned.
