Chapter 3184

Apparently, Jonas couldn't stand to see the netizens hurl insults at Megan, so he defended her on Twitter.

However, the latter couldn't bring herself to be grateful to him.

"He's only adding fuel to the fire."

Megan's expression hardened, pressing her lips together.

"His fans are going to scold me again."

The two women recalled the last time Megan sought Jonas' help for a publicity stunt because she wanted to secure a role, but she ended up being ostracized by all the netizens.

She didn't want history to repeat itself.

"Maybe we should look on the bright side."

At a loss for words, Donna sighed.

"Jonas' support proves that you're a woman of integrity, but it's inevitable that you'll be berated for some time."

Megan held her forehead as countless vexing thoughts ran through her mind.

"But he should've informed me beforehand. He's getting himself into trouble as well."

Donna was getting more worried about Megan, because she could foresee the problems that were coming their way.

What if some extreme fans come over and wait outside this place? We'll have to deal with more than just the internet trolls Just as the two were still feeling perturbed, Megan's phone rang. It was an unknown number.

On pins and needles, the two exchanged glances, afraid that it might be a call from an Internet troll.

In this era of technology, one could easily replace out others' contact numbers.

Glancing at the ringing phone, Megan didn't move an inch.

The phone had turned into a hot potato in her eyes.

Irritated by the incessant ringtone, Megan was worried that it was a call from work.

"Fine, I'll answer it."

She gave it some thought and decided to pick up the phone.

"Hello."

Clutching her phone, Megan had her heart in her mouth and held her breath while waiting for the reply.

"It's me, Jake."

A steady, soothing voice came from the other side of the phone.

Stunned for a second, she was rendered speechless.

Why is he looking for me? It's been days since the farce.Is he going to hold me accountable or reminisce about the past? Utterly baffled, the woman grew edgier. "Why are you so quiet?"

"Mmmm...I'm just surprised to hear from you.Is something the matter?" she asked softly.

Her tone sounded distant.

Displeased by the alienation, Jake remained silent for a short while.

Instead of asking her, he commanded, "I'm downstairs. Come and have lunch with me"

At first, Megan was reluctant.

However, thinking that it could make Mia green with envy, she agreed to it right away. "Okay, I'll be right there."

Sitting right next to the woman, Donna heard the conversation and became distressed.

Watching Megan packing her handbag, her brows drew together as she grabbed the woman's arm.

"What if this is a trap?"

With downcast eyes, Megan smiled ruefully while patting Donna's shoulder.

"Don't worry about me. The worst that could happen was getting fired. Besides, I'm confident that it won't happen."

Donna was tongue-tied for a few seconds.

Helpless, she reminded, "I know I can't stop you, but please be careful."

Nodding her head, Megan put on some light makeup, took her handbag, and headed out.

At the stairway, someone escorted her to a black car and opened the door for her.

"Ms. Rockford, please get into the car.Mr.Wilson is waiting for you."

Even though she was living for the second time, she had never experienced anything like this before.

Taking a deep breath, she slowly got into the car.

"You're here."

As soon as she got into the car, Jake put away his laptop and turned to glance at the woman, who was restrained and guarded. The man raised a brow at her and sneered, "You weren't as timid when you fell intentionally onto the floor to set Mia up."

As soon as he said it, Megan turned her head around to gape at him with widened eyes.

Embarrassment was written all over her face, and the rhythm of her heartbeat became frantic.
