Leo drew back then scoffed. "Julie knows? Of course, she is the best friend; she is supposed to know." He said sardonically."I can assure you that it is not like that. Actually, I did not tell her about it, Julie found it out on her own." She revealed. His expression calmed. "How?" "I did not tell her, she found out by herself when I had an episode after I went to go and visit Esther's grave. It was not that bad, I took my pills and it calmed down." "What! Why am I just hearing this today? You had a heart attack that day?""Yeah, sort of. It was because of her parents. They came to her grave way earlier than we expected, so some things led to another, and that happened; Julie was there, so I had no choice but to tell her because she had witnessed it herself, I could not deny what has been seen." She did not want to tell him about how Esther's mother slapped her, it would only provoke him more. "Trust me, Julie wanted to tell you or my father when she discovered that no one knew. I
"Dad," Megan called. "How long have you been standing there?" Megan's father walked further into the room still with the support of the walking stick. Some habits are just hard to kill; he is already used to the walking stick that he is still using even though he has been found out. "When did you find out and how long have you known?" He looked astounded."I have some things I need to do; I will be back," Leo announced, but no one paid attention to him; they were focused on the conversation they were about to have. They both needed to sort some things between themselves and his presence was not needed there. He stood up and left the hospital room, when he came out, he saw Antonio and Ruth outside the room. They have been there since Megan got hospitalized; Antonio was the one who was here first, and then Ruth joined him later. He would reward them handsomely for controlling the situation quickly without causing harm to Megan."I will be back." He told Antonio who nodded. He needed to
Leo sat on the chair in the cafe in the hospital; he sipped his plain black coffee, and he waited for Megan and her father to finish their discussion. As he waited, he dialed his secretary's number; he picked up almost immediately."Cancel all my schedules for tomorrow, I won't be coming to work tomorrow." He ordered firmly. He will use that time to take care of Megan.His secretary did not ask unnecessary questions and replied him sharply. "Ok, sir. Anything else?" He inquired curtly.Leo thought for a while. "No, that's all. If there is anything else, I will call you if there is something else." He cut the call and leaned back in his seat. One thing he liked about his workers was that they obeyed him without asking too many unnecessary questions. He needed to be with Megan as she did the surgery tomorrow. He was not going to leave her side. Now that Brandon was out of the way, he can now be at peace with Megan without him disturbing their lives all the time.Something was vibrating
"This is why I have been telling you to take the surgery for a long time, apparently, with how stubborn you were, you refused. See where it has led you to!" Julie exclaimed in frustration for the hundredth time. It was the morning of her surgery, and she had no choice but to call Julie and confess everything, or else Julie would have maybe killed her before her time. She knew that she would verbally scold her a lot, and she was expecting it, but she did not expect it to be so long like this. It was torture. Julie kept telling her that she was the one who made the heart sickness reach this far, and it would not have been like this if she had agreed to treat it since. It was annoying listening to her constant nagging. Megan groaned. "I am sorry, okay. You have said this same thing so many times. Please spare me. I don't think I can hear anymore; it's agonizing." She begged.Julie glared at her from across the room where she sat. "Why should I stop? Did you listen to me when I was sayin
Ella Woods, as expected of her, sashayed her way into the room and went to make herself comfortable on the couch in the room. Ruth followed her and entered the room. Julie was seriously glaring at Ella; if looks could kill, then Ella Woods would have been six feet under.Julie dragged her to the door. "What are you thinking about inviting her in? This woman is your enemy, you are not meant to invite her in. The last time she came to visit you, she only threw useless threats your way, she is nothing but trouble. Plus you are not supposed to stress yourself right before your surgery." Julie told her in a not-so-low voice."I can hear you guys. I just wanted to know." Ella announced sarcastically.They both turned to look at her. "Glad you heard it." Julie shot back at her."I understand what you are saying. I will not waste time. Also, I want to hear what she has to say; she did not look for me to visit all for nothing. I promise that if I am uncomfortable, I will let you know, but plea
It can't be. Leo would never do that to her. Why should she believe this woman? This is a woman who wants Leo for herself and she will do anything to get him, including lying."The only reason he would actually come to you is because you are the best candidate for his revenge plan. You were Brandon Keller's girlfriend and I cheated on him with the same Brandon whom he hates. He must be happy now that he is behind bars. If you look at it, it was all his doing. Brandon gave him a little step, and he took a mile; he was the one who reported him to the police and gave the police all the evidence to put him in jail. First of all, do you think your meetup with Leonardo was natural? He came to you first right?" Her cold blue eyes were staring at her intently. She was waiting for a reaction.Megan swallowed trying her best to school her features before she answered. "It does not mean anything if he met me first. It is purely coincidental. Not all women in relationships meet their partners fir
"You are kidding me, right? How can you utter such total nonsense." Her accent was becoming more pronounced; it was the same thing that happened wherever Leo was angry, or he was in bed with her. That means she is reacting to what she said and what she is saying is true.Megan cocked her head to the side and stared at her with a mocking look. "Why? Are you scared that I found out your little secret?" Ella Woods glared at her. "That is rubbish. There is no secret. I can never love Leonardo neither can I love anyone. They always love me first and end up begging for my love." She defended angrily.Megan shrugged. "That is the thing. Your pride got hurt that you ended up loving a man first, and he could not love you back, especially the one that you agreed not to love. It must have been unbearable for you because you are used to men falling at your feet but Leo was not like that so you decided to have an affair and cheat on him so that he would finally notice you and love you and come be
Leo was walking down the stairs of his house when his phone rang. He had just finished freshening up because he had not come back home nor bath since that thing happened to Megan and he was wearing a fresh change of clothes since the day that Megan was attacked; he was carrying an expensive designer leather duffel bag which contained Megan's clothes, the important ones like her underwear and sweater, and a fresh change of clothes when she is discharged. He dropped the expensive leather duffel bag on the floor, brought out his phone from his back pocket, and picked it up. "I will go straight to the point. My boys have found who the person is. The main person that paid the stalker money to stalk and put those boxes at the front of Megan's house back then." Marvin said to him in Italian.Finally, he will get to know this mysterious bastard. "Who is the person?" He replied in the same language.Marvin breathed out. "You may not like who the person turned out to be. It is unexpected actua
