When Leo ran into Megan on several more occasions recently, he couldn’t help but be amazed at
the transformation he witnessed.
At first, Leo had believed that Megan possessed a similar innocent and pure aura to that of Tessa. However, their recent encounters shattered that perception and proved him mistaken.
In her natural state, free of makeup, she exuded a captivating purity. Her elegantly shaped eyebrows and flawless complexion possessed a captivating charm, reflecting a sense of purity and grace. She carried herself with poise, speaking sparingly and emanating a sense of serenity.
Yet, once she applied makeup and donned different clothing, her entire demeanor underwent a striking transformation.
As her slender cheeks gradually filled out, Megan began to exude a womanly beauty that captivated, not just others, but even Leo himself. There were moments when he felt an overwhelming urge to caress her cheek as he pulled her into the seclusion of the bushes. And when he witnessed her small mouth forming words of defiance, an intense desire welled up within him, tempting him to lean in
and kiss her.
Leo had grown nearly indifferent to the opposite sex due to his unwavering commitment to Tessa. However, Megan’s allure had certainly put his resolve to the test. In contrast, Paul, being a playboy, had no reservations when it came to taking action.
Just as Rey Sawyer had mentioned before, “It would be a pity not to make a move when you such a gorgeous secretary by your side every day.”
Thinking of this, Leo frowned again.

He thought, “If Paul truly intends to pursue a relationship with Megan, will she have the strength. to resist his advances?
“Even if she still harbors feelings for me, will she yield to Paul’s advances when confronted with the risk of losing her job?
“After all, she has no other job prospects and her mother’s medical expenses are a pressing concern. Will she opt to return and plead for my assistance, or will she simply surrender herself to Paul?”
After indulging in his wild imagination, Leo drove away, his spirits slightly dampened.
During his drive, a message from Mr. Mills popped up on his phone: “Mr. Mayor, I’ve reached out to numerous candidates, but none of them managed to pass the written test. It might take a while to find a suitable secretary.”
As Leo was behind the wheel, it was not convenient for him to reply, so he made a phone call directly. novelxo.com fast update

Mr. Mills quickly picked it up. “Hello, Mr. Mayor?”
“Well, all the candidates failed the written test?”
“Yes, I’m studying it with the other people in charge. It seems this written test is proving to be quite
challenging.
“Who designed the test?”
“Ms. Reed forwarded it to me upon her resignation. She designed the written test paper incorporating some of the core principles from her daily work and advised me to refer to it when hiring for the position in the future.”
“She even thought of this?” Leo wondered to himself.
Suddenly, Leo’s mood brightened a little. He was well aware of Megan’s considerate nature. It appeared that she had not only organized his private accounts and passwords but also handed over the necessary documents and even contemplated the recruitment of the next secretary.
He was slightly satisfied.
“What do you think? Is this written test difficult?”
Mr. Mills smiled wryly and commented, “Honestly, Mr. Mayor, considering Ms. Reed’s usual tasks and the complexity of her role, this written test is actually not difficult. In fact, it could be considered relatively easy by those standards.”
“Then why hasn’t anyone passed?”
“We’re talking about Ms. Reed, the omnipotent Ms. Reed! Even if we were to present this written. test to secretaries from the top 500 companies worldwide, they might struggle to pass.
Leo raised his eyebrows happily and said, “Really?”
“I’ve tried my best to select excellent resumes, but unfortunately, no one has passed the written test so far. Hence, I wanted to discuss with you the possibility of slightly lowering the requirements. If we
strictly adhere to Ms. Reed’s standards, it will prove exceedingly challenging to
find suitable candidates.”
Leo thought for a moment and said, “In that case, we can eliminate the written test requirement altogether. Let’s focus on screening the resumes instead. However, don’t fret. If you manage to find
we’ll a suitable candidate, go ahead and proceed with the recruitment. But if we can’t find one, simply leave the position vacant for now.”
“Mr. Mayor, have you already identified a suitable candidate?”
Yes. Let’s wait for a month and see how things unfold.”
After hanging up the phone, his mood further improved.

He pondered the situation carefully. Considering Megan’s intelligence, if she ever found herself in a dilemma where she had to compromise her own dignity and make a choice between him and Paul, he was convinced beyond a doubt that she would choose him.
Leo thought to himself, “There are two compelling reasons why she will undoubtedly choose me. Firstly, we have shared intimate moments before, and she knows I excel as a partner. Unlike Paul, who is known for his casual relationships and may not measure up in the bedroom. Furthermore, a womanizer like Paul is more prone to carrying STDs.
“Secondly, based on recent observations, Megan constantly finds herself in professional settings with Paul, where she must flatter others for business opportunities. Mr. Morgan may hold no significance to the Mayor Group, but Paul must grovel before him to secure corporate ventures.
“In other words, if she follows me, she can roam Houston without concerns over the nitty-gritty details, and she’ll have people fawning over her at every turn. On the other hand, if she chooses to
follow Paul, she would end up being the one who had to constantly fawn over the others.
“When comparing these two aspects, I clearly emerge victorious.
“All I must do now is patiently await the moment when she grows weary of Paul and inevitably
returns to me.”
Having thoroughly contemplated the situation, Leo felt a lot better. Even the mud smudges on his face that day didn’t bother him as much.
“It’s just a matter of one month. I can wait. Let’s see who will give in first,” he thought with
determination.
