The Unfaithful Mr. Scott

When Eugene asked for a table to refer to, Viola went through the documents but could not find it. In the end, she could only frown and ask Melanie, “Melanie, did you forget to do this table?”

Melanie looked at the stack of messed up documents and said nothing.

Viola looked at her, and a relieved look flashed across her face. Blinking, she looked at Eugene with an innocent and troubled expression. “Eugene, Melanie seems to have forgotten to prepare this. | can’t find it.”

Eugene's cold eyes fixed on Melanie.

He could not suppress his irritation anymore. It was a sign that he was going to flare up soon. “It’s in the blue folder with the green tag in the middle. The document is the one with the black label,” said Melanie, looking into Eugene’s eyes indifferently.

Eugene’s gaze flickered, and he pulled out the document according to her instructions. The thin pages of the document were indeed among the papers and would be easily missed.

Chapter 102 1/2 CViola looked at the papers Eugene had just taken from the folder and smiled.

“LeapCo’s secretary sure is interesting. You're bold enough to attend the meeting with your boss despite your lack of ability. Don’t you feel embarrassed?” Evelyn, who had been ignored, spoke out in an arrogant tone. Her gaze was on Viola as she reprimanded her.

Viola was sensitive enough to sense Evelyn’s unfriendly gaze. She clenched the hem of her shirt while trying hard to remain composed. She used all her might to stare into Evelyn’s unfriendly gaze.

However, after a second, she lowered her head and tugged on Eugene’s shirt. She said in a soft voice, “I’m sorry, Eugene. | wasn’t able to find the document.”

Her voice was gentle, and the grievance in it was obvious.

Eugene responded gently, “It’s not important anyway.”

Those words drummed into Melanie’s ears. Her hands on her lap clenched into fists.

The unimportant document Eugene mentioned was something she had worked on all night.

Viola’s eyes were red as tears shimmered in them. Her grip on Eugene’s shirt tightened. Even her lips turned pale. Sniffling, she shook her head.

“Eugene, is this how the intern under you regards the meeting? Aren't you afraid of offending your clients?” Evelyn had been observing Viola’s expressions. Her contempt and annoyance for her only grew.

The sarcasm in Evelyn’s words was evident, and Viola couldn’t help herself from looking at her. Biting her lip, she said, “Miss Shue, | am an intern at LeapCo, but this is my mistake. It has nothing to do with LeapCo.”

Viola had an innocent appearance, and her eyes that glistened with tears made her look even more pitiful.

She lowered her eyes as she added, “Miss Shue, please don’t blame LeapCo for my mistake. | didn’t know Melanie had arranged the documents like this.”

While Viola admitted her mistake, she blamed Melanie too.

Evelyn looked at her pitiful-looking face, then at Melanie, who was sitting in a corner silently. Melanie had no expression on her face as if she had already gotten used to such situations.

Melanie seemed to have sensed Evelyn’s gaze and looked back at her.

Evelyn scoffed, and her voice sounded colder. She looked at Viola mockingly. “You don’t have to take the blame. | didn’t say it was your fault.”

Viola was startled. Evelyn pursed her lips and did not bother to look at Viola anymore. Instead, she told Eugene, “My mother is coming this afternoon. If you're going to bring this person with you to meet her, | don’t think it’s necessary for us to sign the contract anymore.”

Evelyn made a move to leave after saying that. Before she left, she glanced at Viola arrogantly in displeasure.

Viola froze upon being glanced at. Only when Evelyn left did she snap out of her shock.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

This time, her tears rolled down her cheeks. She grabbed Eugene’s arm and sobbed as she asked, “Eugene, am | really that useless?”

Eugene’s eyes were lowered. No one could see his emotions.

Only when he heard her voice did he respond, “No. You don’t have to take her words seriously.”

Viola felt wronged and wanted to throw herself into Eugene’s arms. However, she paused upon seeing Melanie opposite them. Biting her lip, she said reluctantly, “Why don’t Melanie with you later?

When Melanie heard this, she was taken aback. It sounded as if Viola was giving out her position out of kindness. you take

She stood up and arranged the documents Viola had messed up as she said, “Classifying documents is the basic job of a secretary. Miss Shaw, you are indeed not qualified enough.”
