Megan did not want to linger on the past. She turned all her attention to her plans.
“You don't need to know why. I need you to tail Melissa and take photos and videos of her. After you publish them, I'll have a bigger scoop for you.
Megan took pleasure at Rocky's obvious reluctance to carry out her orders. She reveled in the displeasure he felt when he had to do something against his will.
“Fine, I can't be bothered about it anyway. I'm leaving if there's nothing else.” Rocky stood up and left in a hurry.
Megan watched his hasty retreat. She only allowed her true emotions to surface once the door slammed shut.
“Is he gone?”
Donna had been hiding in the room and listening to their conversation through the door. She peered outside the room when she heard the front door slam shut.
“He's gone. You can come out now.”
Megan waved Donna over as her eyes glazed over with exhaustion. The argument with Rocky had worn her out.
“Hey Megan, you were so cool just now!” Donna, on the other hand, was starstruck. She's making it sound like I was super impressive or something.
Megan was a bit baffled by Donna's enthusiasm. “I wasn't that impressive out there. You can stop with the praises now. Calm down. We're going out to do something.”
“What is it?” Donna perked up at Megan's words. She grabbed Megan's elbow in anticipation.
“You'll know when we get there.”
They put on some disguises and left their rooms. Megan received information on Melissa's whereabouts from Rocky, and she headed toward her location.
I'm not going to let her escape unscathed after she tried to sabotage me.
