Chapter 115
“Ms. Reed!”
With a low growl, Megan was frightened.
She looked back and saw that Leo was looking at her with a gloomy face. “Come here.”
Megan also knew that it was not appropriate for her to sit on Paul’s lap in front of so many people, so she could only carefully cover the back of her dress with her hands and stand up from his arms.
She asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Can’t I call you now?” Leo asked.
“If you have any instructions, Mr. Mayor, just say it. I can hear you,” said Megan.
“I said, come here.”
Thanks to Leo, this trip was destined to not be peaceful.
Megan didn’t want to argue with him in front of everyone anymore, so she could only cover her
dress with her hands and walk over.
Leo looked suspiciously at her hand behind her back. “What did you hide?”
“Nothing.”
“Show me.”
“There’s really nothing.”
Leo reached out to pull her, but she quickly took a step back and avoided his hand.
Leo crossed his arms and looked at her with inquiring eyes. “What’s that? Why is it so shameful?”
Megan closed her eyes. “What do you want from me? Can you tell me directly?”
“I’m fine,” Leo sneered, “I just can’t bear to see you get so close to Paul.”
“If you don’t take the bus with us, you won’t be able to see it. Out of sight, out of mind.”
“It’s my idea to take the bus. I think Leo used to be too arrogant to the employees, so I want him to get closer to them,” Sasha interjected in a low voice.
Megan retorted mercilessly, “Do you know how many trivial things need to be arranged in advance for a team of more than 300 people, Ms. Vance? I arranged seats, equipment, tents, and the entertainments on the trip. I originally arranged for everyone to play games on the bus, but now it’s all ruined because of your temporary idea. I’ve been busy all morning. I’ve been running around for nearly three hours, but now I don’t even have a seat.”
“You…” Sasha atgued in a low voice, “I did it out of kindness.”
“Your kindness requires all the people in the car to pay the price for you!”
Sasha said angrily, “Why are you so fierce, Ms. Reed? I didn’t know.”
“Don’t make random suggestions if you don’t know. I hope you can remember this firmly in the
next seven days. At the very least, don’t cause any more trouble for others.”
Sasha wanted to say something, but was glared at by Leo, so she could only swallow her words and
turn her head away to sulk.
Leo said, “Stand in the front for a while. I have something to tell Ms. Reed.”
Sasha was immediately unhappy.” Leo…”
Leo didn’t look happy either. “Hurry up.”
Sasha stood up angrily. She was wearing a pair of high-heeled shoes today. She was indeed beautiful, but she couldn’t walk steadily at all, especially on the staggering bus. She almost fell
several times.
But on the surface, she was the future Mrs. Mayor. Male employees didn’t dare to help her.
The female employees were even more unwilling. Women were born with a bad impression of this
kind of female star who relied on her face to get promoted.
Sasha had no choice but to hug the back of a chair tightly, looking extremely embarrassed.
As if he felt that it was not enough, Paul patted his leg and said, “Ms. Vance, do you want to sit? It’s
very comfortable. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Megan.”
Sasha glared at him and said, “No need!”
“Fine. You can continue to stand.”
Paul turned around and put on his headphones. He swayed with the music and ignored her.
“Have you vented your anger?”
When Megan heard this, she withdrew her gaze from Paul and sized Leo up. He was looking up and
waiting for her answer.
He was still wearing a suit today, but his tie was a little messy, which looked very strange.
He pulled her to sit down next to him. “I didn’t intend to take Sasha with me, but she kept crying and saying that she wanted to apologize to you.”
Megan lowered her head and played with her fingers. “I don’t need it.”
Get Bot
“I know you don’t need it, but Paul’s right. It’s Sasha’s fault, so she has to give you an explanation.”
Megan was speechless. “I’d rather not. I didn’t expect things to turn out like this today. Everyone in the car is laughing at me.”
“This was an accident.”
“If you don’t come to take the bus, there won’t be any accidents.”
