Chapter 3317 Rendezvous

“Megan...” Jake's expression changed when he heard the rage simmering in her voice. There was atentativeness in his eyes and he appeared to be at a loss for words.

He made no mention of this as he was not testing her, and was grossly disappointed that she hadjumped to such conclusions about him so easily. Jonas was the only one he had his doubts aboutsince the beginning.

The man was crestfallen and defeated, his expectations seemingly confounded once again.

Jake only did it for the thrill and not to prove Megan's feelings for him, because there was nothingto prove to begin with.

After all, he only knew about possession and did not understand what constituted love.

However, Megan was not one to look too deeply into it. The banality of their game left herprofoundly unsettled inside.

She was positively seething. “Kindly show some respect for me cause next time round, I shan’trespect you either.”

With that, Megan hung up right away. Her expression was severe. In response, Donna, who hadbeen eavesdropping behind the door, could not help but pop her head out.

She approached Megan cautiously and asked in a small voice, “What's wrong?”

Megan did not even bother to fold the clothes which she stuffed directly into her bag. As she was inno mood for conversation, there was not much else Donna could have said under thecircumstances. She gave Megan a hand while she silently cussed at the heartless Jonas.

For all of Megan's thoughtfulness toward him, he repaid her by colluding with Jake.

Noting her emotional state, Donna thought against offering her more words of consolation. Shecould only serve up random banter to take her mind off things en-route to the rendezvous with therest of the production crew at the airport's VIP lounge.

Unexpectedly, Jonas and Jake filed in just as they sat down with the director.

The sight of the duo yielded an icy response from Megan. Her lips stiffened with nary a word."Would it be okay if Mr. Wilson traveled with us, Mr. Odegaard?”

Donna at the side glanced over and saw that Jonas seemed a little down and was obviously quitereticent as he mouthed that question.

The director of Love In Progress got to his feet upon hearing him. He was relaxed and smiling as heregarded Jake, whose own eyes were, in turn, fixated upon Megan. “Why, certainly. You'd be mostwelcomed, Mr. Wilson.”

Quite unlike the last few directors Megan encountered, Martin seemed more open to panderingthan most. That, however, was not anything out of the ordinary, as getting on Jake's good side wasnot a bad way to come into a potential source of funding.

Jonas’ reaction, or lack thereof, suggested that the answer was already a foregone conclusion tohim. He merely took one glance at Megan before he took a seat by the side.

When Jake saw Jonas take up one side of the couch, he was eager to sit beside Megan as well.However, the moment he wanted to do so, Megan suddenly stood up, looking quite impassive.“Y'all should go on ahead, I'll like to step out for a while.”

Everyone sensed Megan's displeasure from that singular gesture. The shift in Jake's expression wasespecially pronounced.

Upon witnessing the situation, Martin held Megan back and pacified her, “Don't leave just yet. We'llneed to capture some footage when we disembark later, so you should stay here and chat withJonas. Get to know each other better so you build up some chemistry.”

Megan pointed to Jake's poker face and scoffed, “Expect trouble since all of you are in agreementthat he gets to remain here. Don't you know that he’s here to spy on me? There's no possible waywe'll be able to carry on shooting with him sticking around.”

Megan held nothing back and Jake did not hide his displeasure about her choice of tone either.He grabbed her by the wrist. “Are you still unhappy about what happened just now?”

Jake's earnestness and restraint toward Megan surprised Martin, who immediately caught on withwhat was really going on between the three of them.
