Chapter 3269 Jake Is Displeased
Lying stiffly in the bed, she squeezed an awkward smile. “Ah! We haven’t met each other for quite a while. It’s really embarrassing that I’m lying like this in bed now…”
At the sight of her smile and casualness, Jonas heaved a silent sigh. It’s really a relief that she responds in such a casual way without chasing me away!
He pulled a chair to sit near Megan and fixed his gaze on her face. The gloominess on his face was gradually eased as he could not resist feeling amused at her awkwardness.
His lips curved into a mischievous smile as he teased her, “What are you embarrassed with? You’re still in your hospital gown and not naked.” When he smiled, there were sparkles in his smiling eyes as well.
“Yeah… you’re right.” Touching the tip of her nose in embarrassment, Megan chuckled sheepishly.
After that, a sudden silence ensued the whole ward. Jonas lowered his eyes to conceal the complex emotions in his eyes. Looking at Megan’s hand, he tried to distract his own attention away from the urge to pour out those words which were playing in his mind.
After a while, he broke the silence by asking inquisitively, “Oh yeah, what had actually happened? How did you get hurt? I’m shocked when I heard that you’re injured!”
In an instant, a wave of fury surged within Megan again. She snorted twice before describing to him the previous incident. Feeling pissed off with Mia’s heinous demeanor, she scoffed, “What a despicable woman who is good at playing underhanded tricks!”
Jonas was not really familiar with Mia. During their previous commercial shooting, she was undoubtedly giving off a vibe of arrogance. Even so, it was out of his expectation that she was scheming and manipulative as well.
Anyway, Osmond is a cunning fellow as well. I’m sure Mia tends to be influenced by him in a way.
Thinking about Megan’s so-called foes, Jonas let out a deep sigh again. Tucking the sides of her bedsheets, he asked with a frown, “Why don’t you stop being on bad terms with them? Both Osmond and Mia are not someone easy to deal with. Apart from that, she is still related to you in a way, isn’t it?”
Related to me in a way?
Megan blinked her eyes with a puzzled look. She only realized after a while that he was referring to Mia.
“I’m an orphan now. I have no relatives,” Megan’s face turned grim as she replied coldly. Jonas’s heart flinched at the sudden change in her expression and the coldness in her tone.
