Chapter 147
“What’s going on?”
These words did not come from Leo, who was in the front, but from not far behind him.
Paul strode over, and Secretary James couldn’t keep up with him. He followed him and trotted all the way, as if he was in a hurry to explain something to Megan.
Leo’s eyes flickered. He took off his suit jacket and handed it to her. “This is for you…”
“No, thank you…
His hand was opened heavily, and his suit jacket fell directly on the muddy grassland.
He was going to hand over his coat, so he just hooked it gently with his fingers and did not tighten his grip. Paul’s punch was so powerful that his suit flew straight out.
Seeing this, Patti James was a little flustered. After being stunned for a moment, he quickly trotted to pick up his suit jacket.
As if Paul couldn’t see him at all, he held the knitted jacket in his hand and stretched out his long arms to help her put it around her waist to block the blood.
“Why is it so serious?” Paul said disapprovingly, “You should have left with me last night.”
Feeling a little dizzy, Megan wanted to push him away, but she really couldn’t stand still. In the end, he reacted quickly and pulled her back into his arms.
Megan was still struggling slightly. “No… I’ll ask Secretary James to do it…”
“It’s too late.” Paul snorted grumpily. “Now that everyone knows that we’re a couple, do you think it’s useful to avoid arousing suspicion?”
Megan closed her eyes.
He was right. It was indeed the case now.
Perhaps everyone had been curious when Paul came, but after the “sneaking into the tent” incident in the morning, they had accepted that she was Wade’s girlfriend. It was too late to avoid arousing suspicion now.
“Don’t think too much. Anyway, I’m famous for being a playboy, and I don’t lack a rumored girlfriend like you. If you really don’t want to be with me, it doesn’t matter. My reputation has long been ruined. Everyone will think that you can’t stand me, a playboy, being dumped.”
Megan knew that he was trying to find a way out for her so that she would not have to bear too much psychological burden.
Get Bou
gnore.
She looked at Paul gratefully, but the two gazes next to her were even more difficult to ignore.
One was angry, and the other was fierce. Both of them were fixed on her back.
Sasha covered his swollen cheek and gritted his teeth. Just as he was about to say something, he was stopped by Paul. “What are you looking at? Haven’t you never seen a couple dating?”
“I…”
“What? I’m not Leo, and I can still keep calm when I see your face.”
Sasha was even angrier. He pointed at Meganand said, “She just…”
“She just hit you?” Paul suddenly burst into laughter. “Then what’s the point of telling me? Hurry! up and act like a spoiled child in front of Leo. Ask him to fire Megan and take revenge for you. Ms. Vance, if you really succeed, I’ll treat you to dinner. It’s up to you.”
Like a series of machine guns, Paul’s words rendered Sasha speechless.
She could only turn around to look at Leo timidly. “Leo…”
Leo couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to her. He just walked up to her irritably, removed her hand from her face, and stared at her cheek.
It was indeed a little red and swollen, but it was obvious that she was holding back her strength. She should be fine after being iced for two days.
He was a little relieved. He was quite confident in what Megan did. She did things according to the rules, so she would not be as reckless as Sasha.
Today, Megan’s two slaps to her were much lighter than the previous ones when she hit Megan.
“My face hurts, Leo…”.
Sasha blinked and even squeezed out a few drops of tears. She imitated Tessa and looked pitiful.
“It hurts.”
