Chapter 135
She was a little angry. “What on earth do you want to ask?”
“Then I know it.”
Megan was startled and pushed him away. “What do you mean? Don’t talk nonsense.”
“I mean, there’s really such a thing that makes you absent-minded all day.” He suddenly realized it and
frowned slightly to get closer to her. “What do you think I’m talking about?”
“Nothing.”
Leo’s gaze swept across her lower abdomen.
Subconsciously, Megan covered her abdomen with her hands, tilted her body, and faced him from
the side.
Leo’s eyes suddenly flickered. “That night…”
As if she had been scalded, Megan hurriedly explained, “I took emergency contraception the next day,
and later on, I took Marvelon.”
It was dark all around. He lowered his head to look at her flat belly. No one could tell whether he was
happy or angry. He replied softly with a “hmm”.
Megan asked him, “Aren’t you going to see Sasha?”
“Her agent has already gone over,” said Leo. “What did you talk to Vada about just now?”
“We were just chatting.”

“The hospital is going to promote a group of interns next month. I’ve told the hospital that she’s on the
list. You can tell her in advance. She should be happy.”
Megan shook her head and said, “You don’t know her. She would rather not get this job than rely on
this relationship.”
“This relationship?” Leo chuckled. “Because of who?”
“Mr. Mayor, have you ever felt that your performance in the past few days has been very… strange?”
Leo didn’t deny it and just asked softly, “What do you think is strange?”
“It’s contradictory,” said Megan. “You seem to be using all kinds of means to force me to admit defeat.
Whether it’s about my mother’s illness or making me lose face in front of Mr. Lau and Paul, your
purpose is to make me see myself clearly and bow my head to you. But when I do, you’re unhappy. I
don’t understand what you want me to do at all to satisfy you.”

Someone seemed to be passing by with a torch, and a beam of faint yellow light swept across her
face.
Leo suddenly realized that he had never seen her side face like this before.
In the past, she had always been hiding behind his broad figure. When he turned around, all he saw
was her slightly raised face. Only now did he realize that her profile was actually more beautiful
than the front.
Her nose was delicate and straight, and her lips were small rhombus-shaped. When they were
closed, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and her eyelashes were like a thick fan,
casting a small dark shadow on her face.
Unfortunately, this kind of light only lasted for a moment. As the beam of light disappeared, her
profile could no longer be seen.
Leo felt a little disappointed.
He thought for a moment and said, “I was a little angry in the past. I thought you were just an
insignificant secretary, a puppet to replace Tessa.”
“I know.”
“But later, I realized that when I saw you being bullied, I would be unhappy. When I saw that someone
else was protecting you, I would be even more unhappy,” Leo said. “I don’t know how to summarize my
current mental state, but I can be sure of one thing, which is that I hope you can come back and
continue to work for me.”
Megan shook her head. “I’ve made it very clear. I won’t go back.”
“Yes, you said that you didn’t want to go back to your previous life. I thought a lot in the tent alone just
now, and I found that you were really different from Tessa, after you left. I won’t treat you as a
substitute for Tessa in the future, and I will give you a satisfactory salary and let everything go back to
its original track, okay?” xo.com fast update
Megan shook her head.

“If you have any other ideas, just tell me.”
“I want to get married. A real marriage, not a lie.”
“Also, I really want a child.”
“Even if you don’t treat me as a substitute for Tessa, and you can give me a lot of money, I don’t want
these now. You can’t give me marriage and children.”

After pondering for a while, Leo asked, “Then, is Paul the person you want to marry?”
Megan shook her head and said, “No, the gap between us is too big. I’m not worthy. I just want an
ordinary marriage that I can grow old with.”
“Do you have a candidate now?”
“Not yet.”
Leo let out a sigh of relief and his expression relaxed a little.
“But Vada said that she would introduce some suitable men to me. I want to see them after this trip. If
there is a suitable one, I will settle down first.”
Leo was a little puzzled. “Your work ability is excellent. I thought you were a professional woman.’
“I do want to be a professional woman, but my mother can’t wait,” Megan said; “although her
and illness can still be maintained now, it takes me time to get along with someone, get married, give
birth to children. Her wish has always been to see me build my own family. In recent years, I have been
pursuing your footsteps. I thought I could get a result, but now I can only do it as soon as
possible.”
“What if,” Leo said, “I can give you a result?”
