Chapter 3374 Beyond His Reach
“I see. Well, I don’t have any business trips during this period of time. I’ll accompany you for this season’s filming,” Jake said in a tentative voice whilst playing with her hair.
His eyes flickered with uncertainty as he recalled the time Love In Progress was being filmed. He had merely taken the same flight as her but was already given a tight slap on his face by Megan.
“Uhm…” Sure enough, Megan hesitated.
She frowned in thought because she still didn’t want Jake to appear on the set. However, since Sky Entertainment was sponsoring this season, it wouldn’t be odd to see him there.
“I think it’s better if you don’t go. Since you don’t have to travel anywhere for business, shouldn’t you stay home and have a good rest?”
After much deliberation, Megan still felt that it was better than he did not go. Hence, she ended up refusing him.
Hearing this, Jake’s fingers paused on her hair and his face grew taut.
He couldn’t fathom why she would be so repulsed by the idea of him appearing next to her. If it was merely because of the reason she just gave him, she might as well have claimed that she saw a fish breathing on land. It was that ridiculous.
Thinking of this, Jake let out a mirthless laugh. Then, he replied in an impassive voice, “If you don’t let me go, I’ll strap you to this bed today. You can count on it.”
Megan was taken aback and her expression turned grim. She didn’t expect Jake to actually use the hard way on her. If he really did this, she would never stand a chance to overpower him.
What should I do?
Jake is the kind who is only open to persuasion and not coercion. Perhaps I should put down my pride and try coaxing him?
With that thought in mind, Megan turned in Jake’s arms and gave him her best puppy face. “Don’t put me in a tough spot, okay? I’m only going there for filming. I’ll be back very soon. You really don’t need to follow me there.”
Hearing what Megan said, Jake’s anger burned even brighter. I’m only going to show up on set. How’s that putting her in a tough spot?
His face immediately grew cold, and determination gleamed in his eyes. It was evident that there was no changing his mind.
