Chapter 452 Being mocked publicly by Stella was different, and it was embarrassing.
Viola dug her nails into her palms as she looked at Stella and spoke in grief, “Mrs. Scott, | was wrong for being late this morning, but | informed Lee that | went to deal with Mr. Scott’s injury.”
Stella’s expression was gloomy. She suppressed her anger and asked Eugene, “How did your get injured?”
Melanie looked troubled. Given Stella’s attitude, if she found out about the incident with Burning Star Studio, this matter would be harder to deal with.
Stella stared at Eugene sharply, and Eugene froze. “An accident.” Viola noticed Eugene silently hiding his wounded arm and felt it was unfair.
Pursing her lips, she muttered, “Mr. Scott got injured on the site. LeapCo has a cooperation with Burning Star Studio. Mr. Scott went to inspect the site. Unfortunately, the site didn’t take the
proper safety precautions, and the drywall crashed into Mr. Scott's arm. The injury was quite serious and needed to be stitched. “However, Burning Star Studio didn’t give any explanation about it. So, | went this morning to ask”
Viola did not mention anyone, but her eyes glanced at Melanie. “I don’t think the people from Burning Star Studio can just let it be because they're Mr. Scott’s acquaintances. Moreover, it’s a safety issue, and what if it happens again?”
“Burning Star Studio?” Viola said, “Melanie is working there now.”
Stella’s eyes fell on Melanie. It was cold and subconsciously made Melanie straighten her back. As she was about to speak, Eugene said casually, “Since when do | have to report everything about me to you?”
His eyes looked stern, making his carefree answer seem unreal. He sounded firm and mature. | have the right to decide anything in LeapCo, don’t |, Mrs. Scott? You have always been the boss at home. Do you wish to take charge of LeapCo now?”
Eugene’s relationship with his parents had been poor for a long time, Melanie remembered his attitude was colder years ago, and they seemed to have hated each other then.
However, something eased their relationship, and Melanie had not seen Eugene speaking to Stella so impatiently in a long time. Stella was agitated by Eugene’s attitude and could not find the words to say.
After a while, she laughed out of anger and said, “Fine! | won’t meddle with your company’s business, but let me tell you something. It’s Cedric who wants you back.
“Looking at how rude you can be now, why don’t you tell him that yourself? | can’t be
bothered anymore. After all, you and your father are the same.
“Since you both like cheap women, I'll see if you'll end up like your dad and...”

Eugene snapped before Stella could finish. “Mrs. Scott, this is not your house. You should look for your husband if you want to settle scores with him.”
His words were harsh, and Stella’s face was ashen when she left.
Viola was dumbfounded upon seeing this. Eugene’s anger was apparent.
Suddenly, she began to ponder. She was regretful for being reckless and telling Stella everything.
She thought Stella cared about Eugene and would speak out for him.
In the end, only she was humiliated by Stella. She thought that Melanie should be suffering the same humiliation. However, her train of thought stopped abruptly when she met Eugene’s eyes.
Viola’s heart skipped a beat.
