“Melanie.” A deep voice sounded. The light was dim, and Melanie could not see Eugene’s expression.
She could only look toward his voice.
She heard Eugene’s cold voice amidst the noises. “You’re bold now.”
He showed no emotion when he said that, yet Melanie’s grip on Yvonne’s arm tightened.
Yvonne felt the pain and gasped. She looked at Melanie, who answered Eugene calmly, “Is that so?”
