MEGAN'S BEST DEAL: Once Betrayed, Now Desired ARRANGING A MEETUP.
Leo sighed deeply. "How can I refuse when you make that face for me? I will talk to him and see if he has time." He will threaten Marvin so that he won't come. Meeting Megan at the wedding will be enough. He can't let that playboy lay his eyes on his fiancée, Marvin is total bad news especially when women are involved."Do it now.""What?" He blinked in confusion. He hoped it was not what he was thinking about that she was telling him to do.She smiled innocently but he could see that the smile was nowhere near innocent. What a sly woman. "Don't act surprised by my request. I want you to do it now. Call him and ask him if he has time to meet with us. How can I not have met your friend whom you have known for a long time? That would not be good of me." She pouted."Well, you don't need to." He murmured. "What did you say?" She asked.He shook his head. "Nothing. I am about to call him right now." He said with a fake smile. He brought out his phone and dialed Marvin's number. It was ri
MEGAN'S BEST DEAL: Once Betrayed, Now Desired HE IS GAY.
He would be a big liar if he said that he was not hurt. He has always wanted to see her in a wedding gown and he wanted to be there when she selects one. But she went behind his back and did it without him. But the deed has been done and he will just have to wait for his surprise. He put on a happy smile so she would not feel guilty. "I am not hurt or angry. I just wasn't aware I guess. Anyway, I hope the surprise will be a nice one. Probably a sexy dress." He said glanced at her when they stopped at a red traffic light. "But we can't have you looking too sexy so that men will not covet what is mine." He said trying to lighten the mood so that she would not feel uncomfortable.She laughed. "No, the dress is okay and not too sexy. Do you want a guess?" She asked."I most certainly do. Please do tell.""Silk.""Silk? Your dress is silk."She turned to look out the window and then back at him, her cheeks were turning red. He almost laughed at the way she seemed to blush at the slightest
MEGAN'S BEST DEAL: Once Betrayed, Now Desired A VERY JEALOUS LEO.
"Yes. You heard me right. I did not need to be worried because Dylan was gay. I don't see him as a threat."Megan scoffed. "So that was the reason for your calm demeanor. I cannot believe you right now Leo." She took a pink-colored macaroon and ate it."Trust me, darling. I am still a very jealous man. It is not going to change." His voice was deep and rough."Whatever." She said. "When are you going to start picking your clothes? We don't have all day remember. You still have work to do." She reminded."It doesn't matter but I will still pick my clothes soon enough." He said.A few hours later they finally settled on a dark blue tuxedo. She liked it very well because it suited him and it fitted the dress code for the wedding.They left the store after they had finished everything they needed to do. She and Leo were heading to go and see his friend, Marvin White. The restaurant that Leo chose was an Asian restaurant, Chinese to be precise. She wondered why he chose a Chinese restauran
MEGAN'S BEST DEAL: Once Betrayed, Now Desired GUILTY FEELINGS.
"Are you allergic to Chinese foods or you just don't like it?" She questioned."No, I just don't like it. I don't mean to sound judgy or racist, it's just the way I am.""I understand. Everyone has their preferences. We can go to another restaurant if you like?" She offered."Don't worry Megan. My dislike of Chinese food is not that broad. I know some and I eat them so there is no need for you to be worried about me." "That is good then. Let's order." Leo said. He had a satisfied look on his face.They all picked from the menu and later ordered after they reached a conclusion. "So Megan, tell me about how you met my wonderful friend here."She looked at Leo and his eyes were on her. She turned back to look at Marvin, his face was expectant. "I met Leo at my workplace. He came to design his newly bought house. I sometimes wonder to this day why he came to my small company when he could go to any large and better company.""It is fate." Leo butted in and her eyes moved to him. "Beside
MEGAN'S BEST DEAL: Once Betrayed, Now Desired A FUNNY WOMAN.
"I am very sorry Megan. I tried to take charge of this one but the woman is very stubborn. She demanded that you must attend to her or else she is not going to do any work with anyone else. According to what she said, she went to Leonardo's housewarming party and she was very impressed with your work." Julie was saying. "I really tried to persuade her and make her choose another designer but she stubbornly refused. She is a tough one.""I understand you. Some clients can be very tough and there is nothing we can do except to agree to their wishes if it is agreeable. I am glad that you called me. There is no need for you to be worried about me.""What are you saying? How can you say that there is no need for me to be worried about you? You have a lot going on already from your wedding preparations to your health and you expect me to not be worried about you? You hurt my feelings Megan and I am not happy."She entered into her car. "Alright, I am very sorry for hurting you. I did not me
MEGAN'S BEST DEAL: Once Betrayed, Now Desired A THING CALLED GOSSIP.
Julie's eyes widened in surprise. "Really?""Yeah." "I did not expect her to be such an organized woman," Julie noted."According to what she said, her husband cheated on her with so many women so she divorced him and collected most of his property and wealth. She bought a new house near this place and she wants to decorate it the opposite of how her former house was. She seemed so angry at her ex-husband.""Quite a ruthless woman isn't she?""She knew me. She also knew about my upcoming wedding to Leo. I know that everyone knows about my engagement to Leo, no one knows when we are getting married. She knew and I don't think I know her. She does not seem familiar to me.""That is strange? Maybe she knows someone close to you."Her widened a bit. "I just remembered, she said that she knew Leo's mother. Maybe that is how she was able to know about the wedding." Megan shuddered when she remembered the story that Leo's mother told her about the woman whose husband had died. "Why does sh
MEGAN'S BEST DEAL: Once Betrayed, Now Desired A PIECE OF ADVICE.
They were shaking in fear, except for one. A brunette who was probably in her late thirties. Megan walked closer to them and read the ID that was hanging on their neck. The woman in her late thirties name was Mary, she recognized her, she had been working in the company for quite some time. She was the person who was defending her. The tallest among them was Tina, the one who had a personal beef with her that she was not aware of, neither has she met. And the last one, the shortest among them was Sabrina. She was the one that was neither hot nor cold, she hated her but she was also rational at the same time and has not completely lost her senses.She drew back and straightened her shoulder, she held her head high so that she would intimidate them the more. It seems like they love it when rich people turn bad and she will show them bad. "Now, I want you to repeat all that you said to my face starting from the beginning. Especially you, Tina." Megan said."We are extremely sorry. We did
MEGAN'S BEST DEAL: Once Betrayed, Now Desired THE CONFRONTATION.
The door to the office bathroom opened and Julie stepped inside. "I was beginning to wonder that something has happened to you." She said then glanced around when she noticed the tension in the room. "What is going on?" She asked."This never happened." She said coldly. "Do you hear me?" "Yes." They all replied at the same time."Now leave." She barked and they all rushed out.Immediately the door to the bathroom closed Julie asked in confusion. "Did they do something, Megan?" Megan turned to Julie and stared at her for a long time then she turned around and left the bathroom and headed to her office, she heard the heavy clacking of heels indicating that Julie was following her."Why are you ignoring me, Megan? What the hell happened back there?" She asked in total confusion.Megan reached her office and entered inside, she swung around to face Julie which made her abruptly pause in her tracks."You really want to know what those women did? I will ask you first. Why didn't you tell

MEGAN'S BEST DEAL: Once Betrayed, Now Desired THE LETTER AND UNRELEASED COLLECTION.
Megan stepped down from the car that her father's driver drove her to the hospital with and immediately cursed under her breath. She was just coming back from the hospital for her checkup, according to her doctor, she is now able to do normal things since it has been five weeks since she had her surgery. Although she still feels tired sometimes it was bearable. Her medication was still one of her enemies at the moment; it still made her feel drunk and groggy sometimes. She missed feeling sane and normal.Back to what she was angry about right now, another set of bouquets was being taken into her father's house together with a gift bag. Was he not tired? It has been a whole month since she came back from the hospital and also the same time when the gifts and flowers started invading her father's house. Walking into the house, she headed to the place where the flowers are always kept, the dining room. This time, the bouquet was not as big as the others. The flowers have been so much th
MEGAN'S BEST DEAL: Once Betrayed, Now Desired TRY HARDER.
He needed to get his wits together. If only he could try harder, then maybe she would come back to him. The reason why he has not yet gone to see her, even though he almost has plenty of times, was because her father was the one who advised him not to rush things, especially with Megan. Peter Zendel told him that whenever stuff like this happened, it was best to give her space and not rush things because she might regret any hasty decision she makes, so it was better to let her decide on her own. The only thing that had been keeping him sane was knowing the fact that she was doing fine and alright. He was getting feedback on her health from his friend, Juan, whom he recommended to Megan's father. It was not all because he wanted to watch her. That was why he recommended Juan; it was also because he wanted her to be in good health, and he was aware that she needed a very healthy diet, and Juan was the best option. As for the letters he was sending, he will have to write better. S
MEGAN'S BEST DEAL: Once Betrayed, Now Desired SHE STILL CARED.
It was not just any letter like the one he had been sending to her for a while. It was a handwritten letter of their memories together. How did Leo, who is a businessman, think of something like that? It was so nice, and she did not want to acknowledge it. She could not and she will not acknowledge it. This one was written of their time in the London Eye. He wrote every detail of how she was happy, scared, and sad at the same time. His writing was so accurate that if she did not know him, she would have thought that he probably paid a pro or writer to do it for him or that he bought it. Nevertheless, this was too accurate to not be true. She did not know that Leo was keeping all the memories so stored deeply inside his heart and head. She remembered that time so well even though she did not. She finished reading the letter and her heart was beating fast not in a bad way but in a good way. She dropped the letter in the waste bin, and after a few minutes, she went back to pick it up.
MEGAN'S BEST DEAL: Once Betrayed, Now Desired THE LETTER.
It has been weeks now and she was frustrated. The whole house was filled up with flowers and a nice fragrance, not that she was complaining about the fragrance. Ever since she came to her father's house, Leo has not stopped sending flowers and letters of apology. She wondered how he knew about her current location. She had dismissed the bodyguards that he hired for her because she no longer needed them as she was staying at her father's house. Megan also released to the media that she was sick, which was the reason for the cancellation of their wedding. The day she was supposed to get married, which was yesterday, has passed, and she was still working on her health in her father's house. The wedding cancellation news was the only way to protect them both from criticism; the media still thinks that they are together; she left it that way because Leo would be heavily criticized for leaving her when she was sick and at her lowest. She wanted to wait till everything die down before she r
MEGAN'S BEST DEAL: Once Betrayed, Now Desired LEAVING THE HOSPITAL.
Delphine drew back in surprise. "Huh? You have broken up with Leo?" Megan shook her head. "No, I did not break up with him. We are only taking a break for now. We need some time to think about our relationship." She explained her lie. She and Leo are not taking any breaks, but they have broken up. More like she broke up with him but she did not want to tell his mother that when she knows how much Delphine loves her and sees her like her daughter. She did not have the guts to break her heart.Delphine sighed heavily. "Oh. It's Leo, right? He is the reason for this break that you talk about." When she saw that Megan was not answering her she continued. "There is no need for you to defend him; I know my son, and I know what he can do. He sometimes is careless and does not know how to value the precious things around him. He also makes some mistakes that are unbelievable and he is not perfect. I don't know what he must have done but I want to tell you that you should follow your heart an
MEGAN'S BEST DEAL: Once Betrayed, Now Desired SOONER OR LATER.
"Geez, you scared the shit out of me. Don't go around scaring me like that anymore. I may have another heart attack even though I have been cured." Megan exclaimed.Julie pursed her lips. "I am sorry for disturbing you, but why are you scared? Do you have something to be scared of?" Her expression was skeptical.Megan composed herself and held her head high. It did not matter if Julie had caught her red-handed, she will still hold her head high. There was nothing to be afraid of. "I don't have anything to be afraid of. I thought you were working?" Megan pointed. "Are you trying to change the topic? You came here to check if your ex-boyfriend has come to see you once more." She stretched her neck to look out the floor-to-ceiling windows, and Julie suddenly grinned. "There he is, just leaving. You must be happy that he is still smitten with you." She remarked with a sly smile.Megan glanced out the window and in the direction where his car was parked before, and he was really driving o
MEGAN'S BEST DEAL: Once Betrayed, Now Desired THE LOVESTRUCK PUPPY.
Megan drew back in surprise. "Dad? He knows too?""Of course he does. For some strange reasons that I don't know about, he agreed to his request. I am not sure if he knows about the breakup. Did you tell him?""No. I never told him." She said."Well. That is what happened. I can never hide something like this from you; I am not crazy," She said. "If you don't still fully trust me, then you can call him and ask him; he will surely confess what he did."What she is saying makes sense a little, it is not completely rubbish. But... " How the heck did you know that I broke up with him? I don't remember telling you or is this surgery messing with me?" Julie folded her hand across her chest and gazed at her with an unimpressed expression that screamed, 'What the fuck.' "Really? Even a blind man would know. Maybe your father even knows and you are not aware of it. What I am saying is that everyone knows that Leonardo is obsessed with you and would do anything for you; I mean, the nurses even
MEGAN'S BEST DEAL: Once Betrayed, Now Desired UNEXPECTED BETRAYAL.
"What is going on?" Julie whispered with curious eyes. Megan quickly signaled for Julie to keep quiet so that the nurses would not hear her and Julie quickly shut her mouth. The bodyguards who were a few feet away from them froze. Megan sometimes wonders if they are robots because of the way they always seem to know what to do. Another reason why she had left them was because she was already used to having them around. They were at the back of the nurses station, the nurses could not see them."I wonder what is going on between them. They have not seen each other ever since that day that Miss Zendel went into surgery. Do you think they broke up?" Someone asked."No. I don't think they broke up, it is more like an estranged love, a love that cannot be shown. He has been visiting the hospital but it seems like Miss Zendel is not aware. I caught him one day in the parking lot where he was watching her room window. After watching for a while, he got into his car and drove off.""True. I t
MEGAN'S BEST DEAL: Once Betrayed, Now Desired HEALING PHASE.
It has been a week. A whole freaking week and her recovery has been her priority. She did not let herself think about anything else except recovering, which had not been easy at all; the pain was not little at all. It hurt like hell, she has never felt that amount of discomfort and pain for a long time. It felt so new but with the help of painkillers, the pain was bearable. She had to manage a regimen of pain medications, which normally left her feeling groggy and disoriented at times. Simple tasks like sitting up, walking, and even breathing deeply cause her pain and anguish but she was able to face it with the help of her family. Her father has always been there for her and even Julie has practically been working from her hospital room. She did not feel lonely with their constant presence, and it was comforting to know that there were still people by her side, people who would be with her through it all. Unlike some other people whom she did not want to think about right now.To re
