Chapter 3329 Provocation

"Thank you. Mia, what are you doing out there? Come on. Don't make Mr. Thompson wait." Just then, Anderson summoned with a boastful expression. Seconds later, an alluring and gorgeous face appeared from behind the door.

"Hello... everyone." Mia was wearing an elegant miniskirt, but her smile was extremely unnatural.

At that instant, all the crowds started sizing Mia up skeptically, while she lowered her face most of the time, obviously unwilling to face them.

In fact, she looked like a sheep intimidated by a pack of wolves, while her domineering charisma was nowhere to be seen. Since the moment she entered, her fair smooth hand was held by Anderson overbearingly.

Megan was observing confusedly from far. But when her sight caught on Mia's slightly struggling hand entangled by Anderson, the former instantly came to a realization.

It's obvious that she doesn't want to be here. In other words, someone is forcing her to do so.

Anderson completely ignored Mia's reluctance and kept bringing her around to greet everyone. From that moment on, along with Mia, Megan was also gradually becoming the spotlight of the diner. Every crew who participated in filming the first season of Let's Run would definitely be aware of the conflict between Megan and Mia. While Anderson brought Mia in such a high profile, he was evidently trying to provoke Megan.

After all, this was an industry full of gossips. Almost everyone had heard about the incident at the party of Transcendent.

Just as expected, as soon as Anderson sat down, his cunning eyes shifted towards Megan.

Megan's heart skipped a beat as she could feel daggers shot in her direction. Nevertheless, she was well-prepared for any unforeseen circumstances while taking a sip of water without showing any emotion. "Mia, I didn't expect to see your sister here too. It's such a wonderful day. Why don't you sit over there and have a nice chat with her?"

Anderson uttered sarcastically, ignoring the awkward atmosphere between the two ladies. While his eyes kept scanning back and forth between the pair, his hand was lustfully caressing Mia's fair leg.

As Megan noticed his impolite gesture and Mia's blushing red face, she was fully aware of what was going on.

Even though this was not Mia's first time to gain fame by selling out her body, she was still a woman of pride.

Regardless of what benefit she was trying to get from Anderson, it was unlikely she was willing to endure such humiliation in front of the public.

Unpleased with Anderson's arrogance, Megan let out a laugh and said purposely, "I do have a lot of stuff to talk about with Mia, but they are all private affairs. I'm afraid it's inappropriate in such a formal occasion, especially when you and Mr. Thompson are the hosts."

Upon hearing that, Anderson's face turned grim in an instant. He wanted to make Megan look bad, but instead, her response made him look like someone who did not know the rules. Moreover, he could not comprehend how Megan could be so composed in front of Mia.

While the both of them were glaring daggers at each other, Jerry promptly cut into the conversation. He professionally proposed a toast towards Anderson, who was clearly displeased, and used his hearty laugh to soothe the tension at the scene.

"Mr. Whittemore, here's to you! Season Two will have to depend on you! Come!"

Although Jerry might be a stubborn person at times, he possessed a great sense of propriety. While he had the least respect for Anderson, he knew how to honor him through his words.

Most importantly, investing in Let's Run Season Two was a win-win deal. In fact, it would be nearly impossible for Anderson to replace another partner as brilliant as the current production crew. As arrogant as he wanted to be, he knew there was a bottom line.

With that in thought, regardless of how displeased he felt, he had no choice but to toast back to Jerry.

He raised his glass of wine and cast a glance at Jerry. However, he failed to suppress the rage within his heart while he responded with yet another sarcasm. "Undeniably, you're really good at timings and grabbing the opportunity, aren't you?"
