It was not good for her to leapfrog, but since Vi had every intention to make things difficult for her, Mnie could only choose


    to go to Eugene directly.


    Yana took her upstairs and exined while pointing a finger above her head, “Those two just now look to be higher—ups.


    Mnie understood what she meant. No wonder Eugene asked her to go up so directly. It was fine


    with her, however, as it was more convenient for her.


    The conversation downstairs seemed to be taking a long time. Mnie had been waiting in the office for an hour, yet Eugene still


    had note up.All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Eugene’s office was designed nicely and had excellent lighting. Mnie sat on the soft sofa and soon felt a bit drowsy.


    She had not been sleeping well these days. Now that the drowsiness was setting in, it was bing a


    little irresistible.


    Thinking that Eugene would take some time, Mnie leaned back into the sofa and closed her eyes to


    rest.


    In a daze, she heard the sound of the door being pushed open, followed by steady footsteps.


    Then, there was a sneer.


    Eugene threw what was in his hand onto the desk and questioned in a seemingly mocking tone, think LeapCo is your home?”


    “You


    Mnie’s eyes snapped open. She subconsciously tried to get up but identally moved her shoulder, causing her to frown in


    pain.


    Leaning against the desk, Eugene looked at her expressionlessly. “You have one minute. If you''re just here to y the victim,


    you can leave.”


    “| want to discuss the project between Burning Star, Blue Inc, and LeapCo,” Mnie said, voice hoarse. “All three parties have


    confirmed before that there was no issue with the contract, but LeapCo has been reluctant to sign it.”


    “Do you think | have a lot of free time?” Eugene raised his eyelids.


    “Vi is holding up the progress and refuses to provide the contract,” Mnie continued.


    Eugene sneered, “That’s your problem.”


    Taking a deep breath, Mnie continued, “LeapCo had no objections during the negotiation, but now you’re going back on your


    word.”


    Eugene''s gaze turned dangerous as he stared at Mnie, his expression bing more indifferent.

    “Is it Burning Star’s way to shift the me to others? Or have your abilities deteriorated to the point where you can onlye to


    me to make a scene when you can’t negotiate a contract?”


    Eugene spoke harshly as he unbuttoned the top of his shirt. Then, he added seriously, “Was it because you used your charm or


    was it something else that helped you secure your previous projects? Or was it your looks? Or did you...‘


    He did not finish his sentence, but Mnie understood what he meant. She paid no heed to his words, however. Instead, her


    gaze was fixed on his revealed arm. Her brows furrowed at the scar that was particrly prominent on his cold, pale skin.


    The color of it was deep, indicating that it had not fully healed yet. The scar was about the length of a finger, it was nted


    across his beautifully contoured forearm.


    Mnie recalled when George had suddenly thrown a knife at her and how Eugene had reached out to


    block it.


    She gulped before asking in a soft voice, “The wound on your arm.”


    Eugene’s actions came to a halt as he nced indifferently at the wound on his arm. He then casually shifted his gaze to


    Mnie. “Are you trying a different approach since your pity act didn’t work?”


    Mnie pressed her lips together and remained silent for a moment. “I’m sorry | dragged you into


    this,” she said finally.


    Eugene sneered. He was about to say something when suddenly Mnie’s phone rang.


    It was a call from the hospital, and Mnie’s heart skipped a beat.
