Melanie watched as her colleagues began getting busy. She was silent for a moment before handing Meredith over to Eugene. “Thanks.”

When Eugene put her down, his chest vibrated as he spoke, “It’s safer this way.”

me.”

Melanie looked upset. “Let go. I didn’t say you could carry me.

Eugene’s hand was still on her waist. Even though she was carrying Meredith, his action made it look like they were quite intimate.

Melanie ignored him and walked away.

She was feeling annoyed by Eugene’s sudden act of carrying her. It was upsetting.

Meredith leaned in her arms. She had been in high spirits lately and was moving about excitedly. Moreover, her weight had recently increased, Melanie was beginning to find it difficult to carry her.

Shani saw them coming over and gave Eugene a thoughtful glance. “If you had come any later, I would’ve thought that both of you were doing something naughty behind our backs.”

Melanie looked upset. She got another colleague to help look after Meredith and went off to help with setting up the tents.

Shani followed behind her. “Why are you so angry about this?”

Melanie flung whatever was in her hand hard onto the ground, which scared Shani intol keeping silent.

After she was done with the washing, she returned to find everyone crowded in a spot and laughing happily. There was a familiar figure standing among them. It was Anna.

Anna was sitting next to Eugene, and she waved happily at Melanie. “Are you done being busy? What a coincidence that I was here with some friends. I came over because I saw Eugene. I didn’t expect to see you here too.”

She was leaning in close to Eugene. After she was done speaking to Melanie, she turned to Eugene and said something. They looked like they were whispering about something.

Melanie pressed her lips together when she saw how intimate they were. She turned

away.

Anna had a very bubbly personality, and it did not take her long to get on friendly terms with everyone. Melanie did not join them. She sat at the side to play with Meredith.

It was only when her colleague came over to get her to join everyone that Melanie went to them. She was unable to talk her way out of it.

Anna continued sitting with Eugene, but when Eugene saw Melanie approaching, he stood up without hesitation and to

Eugene went over to her the moment she changed seats. He moved his chair over. There was a little paper fan in his hand. “There are a lot of mosquitoes here. Babies have tender skins. Be careful not to let her get bitten.”

Melanie said nothing, but Eugene was very obvious with his actions. Anna was the first to exclaim, “Wow, Mr. Scott. I had no idea you’d be so nice and considerate toward a former employee.”

She raised an eyebrow after saying that, and a suggestive look appeared in her eyes. “Or do you mean to say that you have intentions toward Miss Smith?”
