Chapter 3339 The Complaisant Jake
Seeing their intimacy, Jonas felt a sharp pain in his heart. Yet, he hid his emotions and plastered a calm front.
In Jake’s arms, Megan was surrounded by the man’s familiar scent. At that moment, she didn’t have the time to bother about Jonas.
She gazed at Jake dubiously while playing with a loose strand of hair. “What a coincidence! I didn’t even tell you that I’m here. I didn’t expect you would come.”
“I didn’t expect to see the two of you being so close together either.” There was a hint of resentment in Jake’s voice while a glint of dissatisfaction flashed across his eyes.
The man was obviously unhappy. Megan knew he would easily get jealous, yet she could do nothing but accept him for who he was. Wrapping her arms around his waist, she buried her face in his chest and explained, “Well, the production crew asked Jonas and me to eat with them. If you don’t mind, you can join us, but you’ll have to find another table.”
Hearing that, Jake’s eyes darkened. He hugged her tighter as he rejected, “No, I’m not joining. I’m afraid I might flip the table if I see you guys eating together.”
Megan covered her mouth to suppress her giggle, yet her mirthful eyes had given her away. “Don’t forget, that’s what you said. I need to record the show now. See you!”
Jake raised his brow at her smugness. Why does she look like she doesn’t want me to join them?
Just when Megan was about to leave and find Jonas, he grabbed her wrist and said seriously, “Forget it. I’m coming with you guys. I’ll drive you to the restaurant.”
Megan was slightly bewildered. She blinked her eyes, not knowing why Jake suddenly changed his mind.
However, there was no time for her to figure it out since she was in a hurry. Hence, she agreed to Jake’s offer with alacrity before asking Jonas to go with them.
It was not the time to gossip nor satisfy their curiosity. Soon, the crew positioned the camera right in front of the two sitting at the table.
As the camera started rolling, Megan felt nervous as Jake kept fixing his scrutinizing gaze at her.
Meanwhile, Jonas helped fill her plate with food. “I like this one. Here, have a taste!” The man had ignored Jake’s presence and was at ease in front of the camera.
Seeing that, Jake’s gaze turned cold. Megan was in a difficult situation, yet she must eat the food for the show.
That was when she realized she had shot herself in the foot.
