Chapter 3328 Lunch With The Sponsor
Megan stared at their intimate gesture inside the mirror, and instantly her face blushed withshyness.
“Um...it's nothing...”
She choked on her words while her hand paused from brushing her teeth. She abruptly rinsed hermouth and purposely reached for the towel to free herself from Jake's hug.
Jake was not at all offended by her evasive behavior. On the contrary, he displayed a genuine smileas he had never felt this satisfied for years.
Leaning against the door, he asked gently, “Do you want me to accompany you there?”
Megan was stunned momentarily and then shook her head. “It's fine. It's a diner with the sponsor ofLet's Run, so all the production crew will be attending. I'm afraid it would be awkward if you tagalong.”
Jake could not seem to comprehend what she meant. But the moment he lifted his head, he spottedthe unyielding rejection in her eyes.
He nearly forgot that Megan really hated it when anyone interfered with her career.
Thus, Jake did not further insist on his offer. Even though he was slightly displeased, he chose torespect her decision.
It was almost noon when Jake sent Megan to the hotel's lobby; then, he headed back to thecompany.
Gazing at the disappearing black Mercedes-Benz, Megan heaved a gasp as the reality at themoment seemed like a fantasy to her.
Who'd have thought that one day I would be so close with Jake? Is this a dream?
Her lips curled into a smile as she stepped joyously into the elevator.
The weather had begun to turn warm; hence, most of those who attended the lunch were dressed inflimsy spring wear. With that, Megan was wearing a floral suspender skirt with a tiny jacket, whichmade her look like a teenager from afar.
Before long, Megan reached the front of the private room mentioned by Donna. As she pushed thedoor open slowly, she was slightest startled by the big crowd in the room. Most of the crews werealready there.
Silas was engaged in some conversation, but the second he noticed Megan stepping into the room,he quickly stood up and called her.
“Megan, over here! There's a seat here!”
Silas’ loud voice overcame all the chatting noises in the room and reached Megan. Megan tracedthe origin of that voice and spotted Silas at the other end of the room.
“You look excited. Could it be that the sponsor has agreed to offer a good price?”
Megan's adorable smile left Silas stunned momentarily.
He immediately collected himself and said, “I'm not sure about that, hence I won't make anyassumption yet. But I called you over to thank you on behalf of Jonas. That was a great help.”Megan's face stiffened the second she heard Jonas’ name. She swiftly disguised her uneasiness witha professional smile. “There's no need to thank me. Speaking of which, has he found the nextagency?”
Her question caught Silas off guard as he sat back against his chair with arms around his chest."About this... I don't think so. He did mention that Sky Entertainment approached him, but herejected them.”
Both of them knew exactly the reason he rejected them. Megan let out a silent sigh as she had nomore interest to stick her nose into this kind of matter.
Just when she wanted to speak, she noticed the entrance door opened once again. By that time,everyone's attention had shifted towards the entrance.
"Hello, everyone. I'm not late, am 1?"
A dark expression loomed over Megan's face the second she spotted Anderson at the entrance. If Iknew he'd be here, I would definitely bring Jake along.
Nevertheless, there was no way she could have possibly predicted this, as Anderson did not releasethis information to anyone. No one knew he was actually the sponsor behind this.
“You're not late at all, Mr. Whittemore. Come, have a seat please.”
In no time, Jerry, the director of Let's Run, approached to welcome Anderson with warmth while theentire crew was also smiling along courteously.
