Never Late, Never Away (Vivian and Finnick) novel Chapter 3187

Chapter 3187

He concealed his smile and said jokingly, "You're the first woman who dared to scold me like that."

Megan froze and suddenly felt awkward.

For some reason, she felt a chill run down her spine.

With a sheepish smile, she waved her hands and contradicted, "No, no.Your parents must've been the first ones who scolded you."

At this, the warmth instantly left Jake's eyes.

Pursing his lips unhappily, he said in a solemn voice, "Next time, you'd do well to remember that I grew up in an orphanage and I have no parents."

The two of them ate most of their meal in silence.

Ten minutes later, Megan placed down her utensils after she was done eating.

Just as she was about to get up and bid farewell, Jake chose to break the silence at that moment.

"Did you resign from Starling Media?"

Megan was momentarily taken aback but quickly nodded in response.

"Yes, I didn't want to stay there anymore."

Raising his head to glance at her, Jake tried to sound her out.

"Do you want to sign with Sky Entertainment?"

Sigh with Sky Entertainment? Never in her wildest dreams had Megan imagined that an insignificant meal would lead to a contract offer she had hankered after for so long.

Bowing her head, she recalled the pain and suffering she went through in her previous life just for this official contract.

The resentment buried deep down in her heart surged to the surface, making her feel slightly conflicted.

Finally, she replied, "No, thank you."

She would never sign a contract that was offered to her out of charity.

Besides, she couldn't be sure if this was some kind of trap Jake laid out for her.

"Oh?"

Jake took a sip of his wine, seemingly unfazed by her rejection.

"If there's anything you need, you can come to me.I'll give you my number"

"Duly noted."

Their meal lasted the whole night, but only a few words were exchanged with silence hovering over them most of the time.

Fortunately, Megan had already prepared what to say beforehand.

Hence, she managed to hold a pretty decent conversation with Jake.
