Chapter 119
More than three hundred colleagues who took part in the team-building activity crowded the few
service areas.
Megan squeezed her way to a store while covering the bloodstains on her skirt with her hand, looking
extremely embarrassed.
All of a sudden, she felt a warm wall behind her.
Paul stretched out his arms to protect her from the crowd.
She turned around with a smile. “Thank
you.”
Paul looked concerned. “Megan, did Leo make things difficult for you again?”
“No.”
“Then why are you here? I remember you don’t like snacks. Did he ask you to buy something for
Sasha?”
Megan couldn’t help laughing. “Paul, you know. I’m on my period, so I have to buy some… you know.”
Paul got her point. “Oh…”
Paul helped her squeeze into the store with his giant and strong trunk. Megan took some tampons and
a men’s outdoor jacket and then paid the bill at the cashier’s desk.
And then she squeezed out of the store and quickly put on the jacket.

It was too loose for her and covered her skirt and the blood stains on the skirt. Megan felt relieved.
“Megan.” Paul looked at her with sparkling eyes. “Are you sure you’re going to wear it?”
“Yes, any problems?”
“You look… a little seductive.” xo.com fast update
Megan was confused. The jacket”
around her body like a sack, not revealing any curves.
Paul pointed at her perfectly straight legs. “You look like you wear nothing under the jacket.”
Megan was speechless.
“You know what? What turns a man on most is not miniskirts but a woman wearing his clothes with
naked legs.”
Confused with what he said, Megan gave him a thu “Mr. Travis, you must learn a lot from
your relationships with your monthly girlfriends. How experienced you are!”
“Hey, can you forget it?”
He regretted it so much.
He wished he could have beated Jake up.
What a lousy idea Jake had come up with! It solved the problem temporarily but left endless
troubles.
Megan didn’t know what he was thinking about. When seeing the sign of the restroom, she
whispered, “I’m going to the restroom.” And then she walked away,
When Leo squeezed out of the crowd to reach there, Megan had been nowhere to be seen.
He glared at Paul with resentment. “Where did Megan go?”
Paul knew him and answered with a smile, “Mr. Mayor, you’re here to buy snacks for your girlfriend in
person? What a loving couple!”
“Cut the crap.”
“What are you looking for Megan for? Tell me, and I can take the message for you,” Paul said with a
sullen face.
“It’s none of your business.”
“Okay, you wait here then.”
Paul put his hands in his pockets and went back to the coach, humming a tune.
Leo didn’t see Megan after a long time of waiting.
He wondered where she could;
Igo.
“What a mysterious woman!” he thought.
At this time, his phone rang.
It was from Stuart, the butler of Mayor Old Manor.
Leo picked it up. “Hello?”
“Mr. Mayor,” Stuart’s voice came from the receiver. “I have something to tell you.”

“No, not really. Well, it’s… it’s your grandpa’s birthday today. He didn’t hold a birthday party, but several
reporters came to ask him a few questions.”
Leo’s heart sank.

“He told the reporters that you were married and hoped to have a great-grandson as soon as possible,”
Stuart continued.
“That’s fine.” Leo was calm.
“But you want to keep it from outsiders, don’t you?”
“I…” Leo’s Adam’s apple moved up and down. “What is said can’t be taken back. Don’t worry. I’ll take
care of it myself.”
Sighing, Stuart said with a smile, “I know you will not like what I’m gonna say, but I have to say it
because your grandpa asked me to. Please don’t get mad at me.”
“Just say it.”
“He asked me to tell you to treat your wife better. She’s your subordinate, but more importantly, she is
your wife. You can’t dwell on the good past or go back. You’d better cherish the person you have now.”
After a pause, Leo replied, “I see.”
“Mr. Mayor, you got it? You used to hang up before I finished my words.” Stuart felt it strange.
“Stuart,” Leo asked, “why does he like Megan so much?
