Chapter 3257 Making Advances
Ignoring Jake, Megan forced her eyes closed and her thoughts away. However, it took hours before Megan could finally stop thinking about her situation and drifted off into dreamland.
The next morning, Megan woke with a start.
When she glanced at her side, she realized Abigail was gone. Jake was the only one left, still sleeping.
As Megan sat on the bed with her forehead in her palms, she yawned
“You’re up early.”
Jake’s voice came from beside her, and Megan nearly choked from the fright. Even her yawn was abruptly cut off.
After recollecting herself, she quickly jumped off the bed. “Yes.”
The emotions in Jake’s eyes were indiscernible when he saw how Megan moved away from him. Climbing down from the bed, he then walked past the nervous woman to draw the curtains behind her.
Instantly, sunlight filtered through the window to light up the dim room. As Jake stood by the window, veiled by the golden rays of the sun, he looked exceptionally handsome in his white shirt and messy hair.
“Abigail had classes in the morning, so I sent her to class earlier.”
His casual words were as though he was trying to cover up what happened the night before. Megan sighed in relief at how he avoided the topic. Yet, she felt disappointed as well.
“I see. I didn’t know that. Maybe I was too deep in my sleep.”
Megan chuckled. She was about to head to the bathroom to wash up when Jake stopped her. It was then she noticed there was something else other than grogginess in his eyes.
Holding her soft hands, he murmured hoarsely, “Is that so? You had a good night’s sleep, but I didn’t. Shouldn’t you keep me company for a while longer?”
Jake’s words made her shudder.
This man truly knows how to charm others.
