Chapter 85
Mr. Lau was shocked. ” Mr. Mayor, do you mean that you know Ms. Reed?”
He lowered his eyes and focused on blowing the tea foam in the teacup. “More than that.”
Mr. Lau was still waiting for him to say something, but he didn’t want to say anything more. His eyes kept falling on her coldly, which made people’s imagination run wild for no reason.
Mr. Lau’s eyes kept darting back and forth between Megan and Leo. In the end, he looked at Paul, whose muscles were tense, and seemed to have a vague guess in his heart.
However, as an old fox in the business world, he naturally did not say anything.
He tried to smooth things over with a smile. “Since we know each other, let’s get straight to the
point. Ms. Reed, I won’t force you to tell me if you don’t want to. I can also tell you that before you came here today, Mr. Mayor and I had already discussed the development details, but I didn’t expect that Ms. Reed would be so capable. I really like to take care of a junior like you, but now that
the matter has been settled, I have no reason to go back on my word.”
Megan nodded. “No matter what, thank you for your appreciation, Mr. Lau.”
Mr. Lau seemed to be very interested in the traditional painting and asked, “But… can’t you reveal a little? Mr. Mayor has said that he will give up part of the profit to cooperate with the the Travis Group in exchange for an answer from Ms. Reed. It’s a good deal.”
She knew that it was a good deal.
However…
Seeing that she was in a dilemma, Paul said directly, “Don’t force her. We don’t want this project anymore. Megan, let’s go.”
Megan tried to pull her arm, but she didn’t move.
“Megan?”
Megan asked, “Does what Mr. Mayor just said count?”
“You’d better not fool me with an answer like your father and uncle. Your father is a driver, and he has been dead for many years. Your mother is just a nanny. You don’t have any uncles or uncles. You only have one good-for-nothing uncle. He is still in prison now. They don’t have any achievements
in this field.” novelxo.com fast update
As soon as he said that, everyone present was surprised.
Especially Mr. Lau, who had appreciated her painting very much before. When he suddenly heard that her family background was so poor, he was a little confused for a moment.
“It’s a waste of money to learn painting. Not to mention the raw materials, just asking a famous teacher to teach is definitely not a small number. I thought.
He thought that she came from a well-off family and learned from a famous teacher.
“So I’m also very curious. A few days ago, Ms. Reed generously sold herself to earn 300000 dollars. I thought she was going to pay for the medical expenses for her mom, but it turns out that she took it to learn ink painting. It’s impossible for you to know Mr. Lau’ test in advance, so there’s not possibility of adapting to Mr. Lau. Then why did you spend so much money to learn ink painting.
He slowly glanced at Megan and finally fixed his eyes on Paul. “I remember that last month, Mr. Travis seemed to have said that he liked girls with a classical flavor.”
This time, even Mr. Lau fell silent.
But she could clearly feel that the appreciation in Mr. Lau’s eyes was no longer the same as before. Instead, it turned into indifference and unfamiliarity.
“I can see that you’re really talented, Ms. Reed. But if you’re really going to sell yourself to attract men’s attention, then we have nothing to talk about.”
She lowered her head and did not speak.
Fortunately, he didn’t drive her out directly.
Although he appreciated paintings, he was a soldier after all, so he paid more attention to character
and morality.
She was unfilial to her mother and had a bad style. After stepping on the two red lines in his heart, Mr. Lau’s impression of her had probably fallen to the bottom.
She felt a chill run down her spine. It had not been easy for her to think of a way to pave the way for Paul, but she didn’t expect that Leo would appear out of nowhere and ruin all her efforts.
Since she didn’t beg for mercy, he would do it himself. He was determined to make her yield.
“Oh, by the way,” As if Leo didn’t think it was enough, he snorted and continued, “Mr. Travis, I also want to remind you that her mother has cancer, and the annual medical expenses are not cheap. If you change girlfriends frequently, you may be entangled by her in the future. After all, she has no money and can do anything. Also-”
“I remember that Paul used to have a woman you liked very much, but in the end, she climbed into your father’s bed? Mr. Shane Travis seems to like collecting calligraphy and paintings very much,
especially the style of ink painting.”
Paul instantly tensed up. “Mr. Mayor is so clear about other people’s privacy? It seems that you’ve spent a lot of effort.”

“I’m not interested in your family’s affairs, but as an experienced person, I want to give you a piece of advice. If she has the ability to hook up with you, naturally, she has the ability to hooked up with your father. Mr. Shane Travis is not a very moral person, so it’s easy for him to fall into the trap. Mr.
Travis, watch out.”
“Megan was not that kind of person,” Paul said coldly. “She worked for you for three years. You should know what kind of person she is. Why did you say that to her?” Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Leo sneered and said, “I thought so before. She was not the kind of person who would seduce a man for money. But later I found out that I was wrong. She was very charming. Not only did you fall in love with her, but several of my friends also couldn’t forget her. Since the day we parted at the karaoke bar, they still haven’t given up on her…”
“Karaoke bar? What Karaoke bar?”
“It’s better for Mr. Travis not to know about this, unless you want to angry about…”
“Enough!”
Megan felt a chill run down her spine almost instantly.
As long as she didn’t compromise, Leo would continue to trample on her dignity and force her to
submit.
Didn’t he just want to see Paul recognize her “true colors” and dump her on the spot?
In that case, she might as well end it.
She raised her head and her eyes were slightly red. “Does Mr. Mayor really want to know who taught me ink painting?”
When Leo saw her, his expression changed slightly. He pursed his thin lips and looked straight at her. “Are you crying?
