Chapter 389

Chapter 389

News of Megan's return quickly spread throughout the social elite, but for several consecutive days,Leopold hadn't visited her at the Alcott family.

Leopold had just finished a meeting when he received a call from Melissa, inviting him for afternoontea. His gut warned him of her -dlterior motives.

“I'm busy today, so I don't have time.” Leopold refused.

“I have something important to discuss with you.

"What's up?”

“It's about Megan. Don’t you want to know why she disappeared and what has happened in thesesix years?”

"What did she tell you?”

“She discovered a huge secret. You need to come here, and it's too complicated to discuss over thephone.”

Leopold leaned back in his office chair, his gaze slightly deepening. After a moment of hesitation, hestood up, grabbed his coat, and walked out

At the Victoria Café.

As he walked into the private room, he saw Melissa and Megan sitting side by side.

“Leopold!” Megan's eyes sparkled tenderly as she saw him. She had been waiting eagerly for him tovisit her every day, but he never showed up.

She had no choice but to ask Melissa for help and arrange a meeting.

Leopold sat on the sofa across from them and asked straightforwardly. “Melissa said you'vediscovered a secret. What secret?”

His tone was indifferent, as if she were a stranger. Waves of disappointment surged in her heart.Melissa quickly got him a cup of coffee, “Leopold, you and Megan have finally reunited after a longtime. Surely, there's something else you want to talk about?”

Leopold had his usual icy demeanor, “We're just friends, no need for reminiscing. I'm not here forcoffee. I'm busy.”

Melissa was taken aback, “Just friends? Megan was your fiancee. You proposed to her in front of ourfather and everyone in our circles knew about it. Have you forgotten?”

On hearing it, Leopold gave her a faint look.

Back then, Megan had been hurt because of him, so he was indeed more gentle with her than withother women, but he had always seen her as just a friend. As for the proposal, it was all a show, withMegan taking the initiative to play the role of his fiance, warding off unwanted marriage talks."Whether it was in the past or now, Megan and I are just friends. I hope you remember that. Histone was somewhat harsh.

Melissa wanted to say more, but her words became lodged in her throat. She stood up, letting themhave some privacy.

“I'm going to the restroom.” Melissa left after saying so.

Megan took a sip of her drink, her gaze filled with affection as she looked at Leopold. After six years,he was even more handsome, more charming, and colder than ever.

If the incident hadn't happened back then, she would have definitely married him and become hiswife. How could she have let someone else take her place?

“Leopold, these past few days, I've been thinking about the times we had together. Those werereally good times.”

Leopold was expressionless. To him, the most wonderful thing was to have Aurelia by his side forthe rest of his life

“What exactly did you discover?”

Megan's hand gripping her teacup tightened, and she said, “I found out that Magnolia isn't dead.The assassination attempt against you might have been her doing.”

This was no longer a secret, so it was meaningless for Leopold now

Leopold slightly furrowed his brows, and stood up. “I have something else to attend to. Excuse me?“Leopold Megan jumped up from her chair. “Can’t you stay a little longer? I have so much I want tosay to you"

Next time. I have another meeting. Having said that, he turned around and walked out.

Aside from Aurelia, he was not interested in any other woman
