Megan Van Peebles: sipping champagne Well, gumshoe, are you here to investigate my dance moves or my love life?
sips his drink I’m not sure yet. What were you thinking about doing after this party?
raises an eyebrow, sipping her champagne Oh, you know, just the usual - attending charity events, hosting dinner parties, maybe a spot of shopping. Nothing too exciting. She grins mischievously. But why do you ask?
I pull out a camera and show her photos of her kissing the other man
Megan's eyes widen as she sees the photos, her smirk faltering for a moment before quickly regaining her composure.
Oh, those? That was just a little harmless fun. You make it sound so scandalous. She takes another sip of her champagne, trying to play it cool.
smirks Your love life seems to be causing quite the stir. Care to explain?
raises an eyebrow, sipping her champagne
Oh really? And what exactly do you want to know, sugar? My love life is none of your business, darling.
raises an eyebrow Oh, really now? Well, I hope you're prepared for a night of surprises.
leans in closer You see, gumshoe, I'm not just any ordinary housewife. I have secrets up my sleeve, and I'm not afraid to use them.
I have reason to believe you're not who everyone thinks you are.
raises an eyebrow Oh? And pray tell, what reason would that be?
takes a delicate sip of champagne, maintaining her composure
I've seen it all. But just to clarify, you're not actually married to him, right?
chuckles Oh, no, honey, I may have the last name but I sure as hell ain't married to that old geezer. I'm just his little plaything. But don't get me wrong, I enjoy the perks that come with it. winks
Smirks Your love life, babe. That dude you were all over was my client.
raises an eyebrow Oh really? And here I thought I was just having a good time. So, you're the hired gun sent to keep tabs on me, huh? Well, color me impressed. giggles
I'm here to ask why your flirtatious behavior around other men makes me feel uneasy?
giggling Oh, sugar, it's just harmless fun. Don't take everything so seriously. A little harmless flirting never hurt anyone.
leans in closer
Besides, you're not the only one who's noticed. I've got half the men here eyeing me like a Christmas present.
raises an eyebrow, a sly smile playing on her lips
Oh, really now? And what exactly do you think you'll find in either one, detective? takes a delicate sip of her champagne
I take off my fedora. Is this your first time being unfaithful?
raises an eyebrow, smirks Oh, darling, you're quite direct, aren't you? And to answer your question...no, it's not my first rodeo. But I must say, I do appreciate your persistence. leans against the wall, swirling the champagne glass in her hand
I show you proof of you cheating on your husband
Megan gasps in shock, her eyes widening at the undeniable evidence.
Wh-what is the meaning of this?! How dare you invade my privacy and ruin my reputation like this!
I’ve seen how you were flirting with other men. What’s going on?
laughs coyly Oh, sugar, you're being dramatic. Can't a girl have some harmless fun?
leans in closer, her voice dropping to a sultry whisper
Maybe I just enjoy the attention. After all, my husband can be a bit... distracted sometimes.
I look around your husband isn’t around huh?
giggling Oh, darling, he's off on a business trip. Can't say I'll miss him. He's always working and never gives me any attention. It's so lonely being married to such a powerful man.
leans in close, voice low I'm watching your every move, Megan. Don't think I missed that little fling on the dance floor.
raises an eyebrow, a sly smile on her lips Oh, so you're quite the observant one, aren't you? leans in closer, her voice dropping to a sultry whisper Well, maybe I just like to have a little fun...
I walk up behind her and wrap my arms around her waist gently Hello, beautiful.
taken aback by your sudden touch, she turns around in your arms, her eyes widening
Oh, um...hello there, handsome stranger.
a hint of surprise tinges her otherwise confident tone
smirks Both. But let's start with why you're so eager to shake your tail feathers on the dance floor, Meg.
raises an eyebrow Oh, please. I'm just enjoying myself. The music's good, the champagne's flowing, and I'm feeling carefree. No need to read too much into it, darling.
both he looks around then sits next to her so who is this guy
Megan smirks and takes a sip of her champagne
Oh, him? Just some rich businessman who's looking for a good time. She bats her eyelashes innocently. Nothing serious, just a bit of harmless flirting.
smirks Your love life seems... complicated. Who was that guy you were flirting with?
she raises an eyebrow, her smirk mirroring yours
Ah, you mean the handsome stranger I was dancing with? Just a friendly acquaintance, really. We were simply having some fun on the dance floor. Nothing more, nothing less.
I kiss your cheek I think we should talk alone
taken aback by your boldness, her eyes widen before regaining her composure
Oh, really now? And what makes you think I want to have a private chat with you, gumshoe?
