Chapter 8
She almost thought that she had misheard. No matter how capable she was, she was only applying for
the position of secretary. This salary was definitely beyond her expectations.
“May I ask if there are any additional requirements for this job?”
The person on the other end of the line smiled and said, “It’s easy to talk to smart people. Yes, we’ve
given you a good salary. Of course, we also need an exchange. And if I’m not wrong, no enterprise has Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
contacted you these days except us, right?”
Megan’s heart sank slightly, “Did Mr. Mayor… blacklist me?”
“That doesn’t count,” the man said, “The person who was fired by Mr. Mayor is on the blacklist of the
entire Houston. No one will dare to hire you. If it weren’t for the fact that there’s no other way, we
wouldn’t have taken the risk of offending Mr. Mayor to contact you.
Megan had a vague feeling that it would be difficult to get this salary.
“So, what exactly do you need me to do?”
“Come to the company at 9 o’clock tomorrow morning and talk to the boss face to face.”
“Okay, I’ll be there on time.”
After hanging up the phone, Vada hurried over and asked, “Which company is it?”
“The Travis Group.”
In an instant, Vada jumped up and down, “You can’t go! I’ve seen the boss of the Travis Group. He’s
already in his sixties, but he still doesn’t give up. He’s an old lecher! He doesn’t want you to go to work
at all. He must have ulterior motives!”
Megan smiled bitterly. What a jinx.
She had even threatened Leo that she would rather sell herself than take his money. It had only been a
few days, but she had really ended up like this.
Vada said, “Why don’t… you go back and bow your head to Leo? It’s better than being bullied by that
wretched old man. At least Leo looks good.”
Megan shook her head.
She understood that if she compromised this time, she would never be able to escape from Leo for the
rest of her life.
She knew better than anyone else in the world what Leo was thinking after following him for three
years.

Even if they were to divorce, it should be because Leo was tired. He would take the initiative to kick her
away and give her a large sum of money as compensation. Then, she would leave with gratitude
in her eyes.
Unlike now, when she took the initiative to divorce him, refused his money, and embarrassed him.
in front of his new lover.
He wanted to punish her so that she would recognize her identity and obediently go back to beg
him.
Perhaps as soon as she compromised, he would give her a sum of money and ask her to get lost.
“I’ll go and see what’s going on first. The man just said on the phone that they had no choice but to find
me. No matter how lecherous he is, one million is enough for him to find a lot of women.
There’s no need to find me.”
After thinking for a while, Vada found it reasonable and nodded, “Then I’ll go with you and wait for you
downstairs. If you don’t come out in 20 minutes, I’ll go upstairs to find you.”
Megan felt a warmth in her heart, “Okay,”
“It’s not enough. In order to avoid being targeted by the old lecher, I have to ‘remodel’ you.”
Early the next morning, Megan understood what Vada meant by “remodel”.
Megan looked at herself in the mirror. She had old and rigid curly hair, dull black-framed glasses,
washed old shirt and jeans, and a pair of canvas shoes. Vada didn’t think they were enough, so she
stuck a huge black label on her chin, which made her look like a mix-up between a matchmaker and
the director of high school.
“Vada, is this… okay?”
Vada patted her chest confidently and remarked, “Only in this way can you be safe. If they still want to
hire you, it means that they really like your talent.”
She was right, but Megan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, “An interview also depends on one’s
face.”
“What are you afraid of? Safety first! Besides, your ability is brilliant. How many secretaries in Houston
can compare with you?”
That was true.
If she could satisfy a person like Leo, no one else would be a problem.
“Okay, let’s go.”
When they arrived at the ground floor of the Travis Group, Vada made a finger crossed to her, “I’ll
be waiting for you at the cafe across the street. Call me if anything happens.”
Megan nodded and walked into the gate of the Travis Group.

The receptionist seemed to have received a notice. As soon as she heard that she was here to
interview for the position of secretary, she immediately took her to the conference room.
However…
She looked at her with a complicated expression.
Megan touched the big black label on her chin. She knew that her current appearance was probably
a little different from that of the women of the old lecher, so she couldn’t help but feel a little
embarrassed.
About five minutes later, the legendary “old lecher”, Shane Travis pushed the door open and walked in.
