The Unfaithful Mr. Scott ( Melanie Smith )
Chapter 333
Melanie and Xander exchanged glances but said nothing.
Colin looked torn as he held the document Melanie gave him. He frowned deeply before he sighed and said, âQuentin worked at LeapCo before this, and heâs quite close to a few middle- management employees there.
âThis time, he was the one who negotiated with LeapCo before proceeding to approach Dreamcatchers.
âThis had been unfair from the very start.â
Melanie did not expect this.
If what Colin said was true and Quentin was really working closely with LeapCo, things would be difficult for them.
LeapCo was the current star of the financial industry. It did not matter if it was Dreamcatchers or Vanke, any smart company would know which company to work with.
However, Colin was not completely opposed to the idea. Melanie knew that he was tempted to give this try.
She did not make this too obvious. She chatted with Colin before leaving with Xander.
âThis is going to be difficult to deal with.â Melanie tskâed. Anything that involved LeapCo made her life complicated.
Xander did not reveal much from the encounter. All he said was, âThereâs no need to be anxious. Letâs talk to the other companies first.â
They had to visit more than one company, and Melanie did not say anything after that.
However, she was surprised when Lisa contacted her again.
Since Lisa tried to sound her out the last time, they had not been in contact. Melanie had initially found this to be a pity as Lisa was now working for Quentin.
When Melanie saw the call from Lisa, she raised an eyebrow and went to the side to pick up the call. âIs there anything you need?â
It was slightly noisy where Lisa was, and she sounded calm. âMr. Emerson would like to see you. Can you make some time?â
âQuentin Emerson? What does he want to see me for?â
Lisa gave a suspicious excuse. âI have no idea. It might be about work.â
Why would Quentin Emerson want to see her about work?
Melanie was about to reject her when Lisa continued in a low voice, âHe says he has something to show you.â
There was a grim look on Melanieâs face. She had a bad feeling about this.
Xander saw the frown on her face after Melanie hung up. He asked, âIs something wrong?â
Melanie hesitated but did not tell Xander the truth. âLisa wants to see me. It could be about

work.â
She and Xander went to meet several more company representatives. The meetings started well, but the last person was someone who was acquainted with Quentin Emerson.
Anyone associated with him would also be people involved with LeapCo.
This created a headache for Melanie.
There was not much change in Xanderâs emotions. While on their way back, Melanie said, obvious that Quentin Emerson is using this opportunity to cement his position in Vanke.â
She stared at the huge billboard on the building opposite and mumbled, âIf the next few companies are also associated with him, things will be difficult for us.â
Melanie did not mention that LeapCo had the support of the Scotts.

Reny noticed the grim looks on Xanderâs and Melanieâs faces when they returned to the villa. She guessed what might have happened and did not mention anything about it.
Melanie did not stay long at the villa as she had a dinner appointment with Lisa.
She informed Xander about it and left.
They were supposed to meet at a restaurant in the city center. Lisa was already waiting for her when Melanie arrived.
Lisa looked upset. She squeezed Melanieâs hand and said, âDonât eat anything later.â
