The Unfaithful Mr. Scott

Chapter 695 1/2

Melanie already had some guesses. She wanted to ask more about Matthew, but Yvette had taken a call and turned to leave, so she could only give up.

The meeting ended early for once. It was only half—past five when Melanie left the meeting room.

Hugh was supposed to pick her up exactly at six. Melanie was about to call him when she saw a figure standing nearby. She frowned and turned to leave. However, before she could get away, the figure made a beeline for

her.

It was Howard, his voice particularly serious and anxious. “Melanie!”

He quickly stepped in front of Melanie. Without giving her a chance to speak, he reached out and grabbed her arm. “Come with me now. We're going to the hospital.”

His face hard, he looked at Melanie appraisingly. “You haven't been pregnant long. There’s still time. Come with me to the hospital and get an abortion right now!”

With that, he tried to drag her away by the arm.

Howard had spent several days at home thinking of a solution. So what if Melanie was pregnant with that broke boy’s child? He was Melanie’s father and had the right to make these decisions for her!

His daughter must never end up with a pauper like that kid. Otherwise, he would never be able to show his face around ever again!

Moreover, the friends he had invited to that meal were all laughing at him now, saying that he had gone crazy trying to climb up the social ladder. They said he had purposely made up rumors about his daughter sleeping with other men!

Howard had been too afraid to go out for the past few days, and he had even had to turn off his phone. He even changed his number in order to send a message to Melanie.

He simply could not take this lying down.

With this thought in mind, Howard exerted more strength in his grip, hurting Melanie’s wrist.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

She was caught off-guard and stumbled when he yanked her. When she realized what was going on, she steadied herself and pulled her hand away from Howard.

Melanie looked at him coldly. “Howard Smith, what do you think you’re doing in broad daylight?” Howard glared at Melanie gloomily. When he thought about how his friends‘ disdain and mockery, anger filled his heart.

However, he was still worried about the passersby, so he lowered his voice and growled, “Melanie, I’m doing this for your own good. | know you'll regret this in the future!”

His chest heaved violently. It was obvious that he was furious.

Melanie did not feel any better. She looked down and saw that her wrist was still red where Howard had grabbed it. “Why tie yourself to that peasant? What can he give you?” His eyes were burning with anger, but when he thought of the person's words, he forcefully suppressed his emotions and tried to reason with Melanie.

“Mel, believe me, | have so much more experience in life than you do. You'll be miserable if up with someone like that. you end

“Listen to me. I'll take you to get an abortion. You're still young. You'll recover after resting for a while. Once you do, I'll introduce you to a reputable man in Oskon City.

“You're beautiful, so you'll have plenty of chances!” Howard said it matter—of-factly, but Melanie felt sick.

She figured she knew what kind of “reputable man” he would introduce her to. As for the “chances” he meant, it was probably something like what Bianca was doing.

She suppressed the urge to throw up and was about to speak when someone wrapped his arm around her shoulder, pulling her to the side.

The fresh smell of pine reached her nostrils.
