Chapter 3241 Meaningless Threats

Megan would not have wanted to get blood from a stone if she had not wanted to minimize the external factors and get ahold of a trump card for ease of going it alone.

"Why are you so quiet?" she asked, feeling uneasy. She kept imagining the look on Jake's face.

After a long silence, Jake seemed to have recomposed himself as he asked icily, "What do you want me to say?"

His cold voice made her shudder. She was at a loss for words.

It's still not too late to apologize to him even though I don't think I'm wrong. I'd better give in when it's time I do so.

Holding back her reluctance, she stated expressionlessly, "I'm sorry that I've gone too far. Don't take it to heart."

Her apology was void of sincerity, causing Jake to click his tongue. He was still dissatisfied, but he knew that this was the result of her giving in after spending time with her for several days. He scratched his head irritably as he found it harder to understand his own feelings toward Megan.

If it was in the past, Megan would have been tortured hard by him. Yet now, he cared about what she thought while she actually had the audacity to snub and reject him.

All these signs indicated that things had gradually gone out of his.

Thinking of this, he recalled his hollow past. Will a person who has been abandoned by his memories be abandoned again by this kind of anticipation of wanting to be saved? Narrowing his eyes, he replied in a low voice, "Do you think I'll forgive you just because you apologize?"

He sneered as he kept suppressing his suspicion of her deep down. At the same time, the vulnerability in him that he had refused to acknowledge was amplifying his emotions. Hearing how overbearing he was, Megan was suddenly overwhelmed by exasperation.

What's the point of him making such meaningless threats all the time?

Glancing at the talk time on her phone, she no longer felt like talking to him and was wondering if she should end the call. However, she thought of the things that he had just said and got mad, so she directly hung up on him without hesitation.

After that, she irritably threw the phone to the other end of the sofa. Sinking into the soft sofa, she put her hands over her eyes casually, feeling a weight on her chest.

She did not understand why Jake always treated her as if she was his woman as he who had never lacked the company of women should not care about her so much.

Although no woman would not be happy for this kind of concern that he showed, she knew that it was based on his possessiveness and not love.

Moreover, she could not get over the fact that he had refused to give her any hope, and yet he still tried to restrict her freedom.

Sitting up, she held a pillow in her arms and let out a sigh. Other than his perplexing behavior, she was feeling uneasy deep down.

In fact, the thing she was even more afraid of was that Jake would frame her, considering that he was so scheming. If this was just his means of testing her, she would be the one who suffered in the end. The more she dwelled on it, the more she thought that she was too naïve back then for trifling with Jake merely out of her own insecurity.

However, she knew that there was no turning back. Since she could only stay beside someone as dangerous as him, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue on the path while ignoring the emotions in her heart.
