Chapter 887
This hotel was probably more suited to be called a homestay. It was an old house made. out of wood, and guests would need to climb up and down the stairs themselves.
Melanie was carried up the stairs by Eugene. His chest was warm, and his solid forearms supported Melanie's waist steadily. Melanie was wrapped around him entirely and could feel his strong heartbeat.
Eugene's cedar scent was mixed with the dampness of the rainwater, and it was much lighter than before.
Eugene carried her into the room and put her down to sit by the side of the bed. He
kneeled on one knee in front of Melanie after that. He gently helped her remove her left shoes and socks. He frowned as he looked at her swollen ankle.
His cool palm touched her skin, and Melanie instinctively pulled back her foot. However, Eugene grabbed it before she could. "Don't move. Your ankle needs medication."
Melanie was silent for a while before slowly frowning. She said, "This isn't like you, Eugene."
He had never treated her so tenderly before, but he was acting like he was a caring and attentive person.
It really was not like him at all.
Eugene paused but maintained kneeling on one knee. He said huskily, “I'll change."
Melanie said, "You don't have to. I won't think much of you even if you do."
The horrible pain he had caused her was imprinted deep inside Melanie. It would not lessen the pain she had suffered no matter how much he changed.
All Melanie wanted was to live the rest of her life well.
She wanted to live a happy life without Eugene or his influences.
Eugene was about to say something when Shani walked in with Meredith in her arms. She was taken aback to see Eugene kneeling on the floor and asked, "Did I come in at the wrong time?"
He stood up and looked at Melanie. His eyes were filled with emotional waves that he tried hard to suppress after. He looked deeply at Melanie. "I'm going downstairs to find

some medication."
Shani watched on as Eugene left. She took a deep breath and sat next to Melanie. "What happened? Did something happen there that you don't want anyone to know? Why do I have the feeling that something changed between both of you?"
Anyone could tell that there was something different about them since Eugene carried Melanie out of the forest. Even though Melanie was still indifferent about things, Eugene had stopped hiding his feelings for Melanie. His eyes never left Melanie.
Shani had wanted to ask about this on the way back to the hotel. She found out from Anna that Melanie used to be Eugene's secretary, and it made her even more curious.
After all, there had to be something between them considering the boss had such a beautiful secretary by his side.
However, Melanie had looked upset throughout the journey back, and Shani did not dare ask anything about it. She held back her curiosity until now.
Melanie replied nonchalantly, "There's nothing between us."
