Meagan Read Online Free PDF Page B

little too flawless for her years. A little life experience on your face was nothing to be afraid of. Maybe in another ten years Meagan would feel differently, but her career was built on what she did, not how she looked.
    Meagan sipped her wine and wondered what Christa got up to when her husband wasn’t looking. That wasn’t the first time she had mentioned the nanny, and Christa had only seen her a couple of times.
    However Meagan wasn’t worried about Fraser and the nanny. He’d complained more than once that the only thing he could talk to her about was the children, because they had nothing else in common. Fraser liked to be surrounded by smart people who were ambitious. That was why he’d pursued her ten years ago. He’d seen something in her and had wanted everyone else to see it too.
    As she looked around at her social circle, some of them friends, some of them more tolerated acquaintances, she realised that she had made it. When she’d first joined this circle she’d been Fraser Oxley-Nichols’ working wife. They’d invited her because of him and she’d been on the fringes, like Camilla was now. She smiled at Drake Jackson’s young wife and vowed to make more of an effort to include her. There was no time like now to start.
    She wandered over to join Camilla, Willow and Emma and listen to Darla’s dating woes. So far it had been one bad date after another. It made Meagan very grateful that she’d already met and married the man of her dreams.
    â€œHe was name-dropping the whole night.” Darla took a sip of wine.
    â€œHe just wanted to prove he was well connected?” Some people did that, but it also showed a level of insecurity to be doing it on the first date. Camilla was willing to give everyone a chance, or two.
    Darla shook her head. “Oh, that I could’ve dealt with. No. He was naming the big name women he’s allegedly slept with.”
    Emma scrunched up her nose. “Ew, like a résumé?”
    The only thing worse than a man who got around was one who boasted about it. The women he had slept with would no doubt be mortified if they knew he was naming them.
    Darla grinned at Emma. “Exactly. He thought I should be impressed by the list.”
    â€œThen you’d be on the list,” said Meagan. For all the glamour and diamonds in the room, they were still a bunch of women getting together to gossip. Some things didn’t change, regardless of social status.
    When she’d first picked up her knives, she could never have imagined where she’d end up. She was part of Sydney’s elite. She was a respected chef and celebrity in her own right. And she had a husband to enjoy that success with. Fraser had backed her dream and that was worth more than any diamond.
