Evelyn smiled and was the first to speak, “Melanie, don’t you think we’re fated? It’s like we meet just
about everywhere.”
“The main urban area of Prime City is only so big,” Melanie simply replied.
“Well, that’s perfect. Since we’ve run into each other, why don’t we have a meal together? Eugene is
also here today, and you used to be his secretary. Maybe you can catch up.”
Evelyn emphasized the word ‘secretary‘ and glanced at Melanie’s stomach when she mentioned
catching up.
For some reason, Melanie felt repulsed by Evelyn. She subtly shifted away, avoiding Evelyn’s gaze.
However, Evelyn did not seem to want to let her off. Although her tone was casual, there was also a
sense of relentless pressure.
“How many months pregnant are you? Have you found the child’s biological father yet? I heard that
your pregnancy came quite suddenly,” she said, trailing off at the end deliberately and leaving the rest
to the imagination.
Seeing her gloat, Melanie remained composed as she replied, “Miss Shue, have you heard the saying
that one could live to be a hundred if they ceased to meddle in others‘ affairs?”

Eugene looked particularly good in black, which accentuated the air of pride and nobility about him.
Standing in front of Melanie, he exuded a strong sense of pressure. “What are you doing here?” he
asked.
Melanie looked up, her features seemingly encased in ice. “You seem to be very concerned about me.”
Eugene’s expression turned stern, and the darkness in his eyes deepened. “When are you going back
to Jepton?”
His question was expected. Melanie’s attitude immediately turned cold and hard. She looked at Eugene
indifferently as she replied, “Eugene, do I need to remind you again? There’s nothing between us now.
My affairs are none of your concern.”
She was about to move away from Eugene, but a food trolley rolled by at that moment. She tried to

Melanie was taken aback for a moment, but her brows then knitted together.
Once the trolley passed, she pushed Eugene away with a displeased expression. “I already know
Howard is in Prime City, I don’t need you to remind me.”

Evelyn was standing at a corner not far away, watching them.
Eugene merely lifted his gaze to meet hers as he replied, “She’s not my fiancée.”

Melanie said nothing more and just left. Suddenly, she heard an angry voice call out her name,”
