Chapter 3250 Substitute
Megan stammered, “S-So you…”
She could not finish her question. Looking down, she recalled the times they spent together. There’s no
spark between us, but why does he say something so misleading?
“You’re thinking too much.” Judging from her blushing cheeks, Jake knew that she had overthought it.
Pursing his lips, he added in a calm tone, “It’s just that I need you to fill my past, and you’re also the
perfect substitute for Megan so far.”
His replay shattered all the romantic hopes Megan had deep down. She clenched her fists in
disappointment and kicked the pebbles on the road embarrassedly.
“So that’s what you really think.”
Standing up, Jake nodded while gazing at her face that spoke of dejection.
“That’s right. That’s exactly what I think. I’m showing you my hand here today.”
Show his hand? Megan sneered coldly as she could not even imagine how many hands he had got.
With a gloomy look on her face, she stated coldly, “I don’t mind if you’re showing your hand. As long as
you don’t give me hope, I won’t respond to you. As for your past, it has nothing to do with me.”
For the people who used to be emotionally invested, it was similarly easy to hurt someone and love
someone. NôvelDrama.Org © content.
Megan had been exhausted by the volatility in her relationship with Jake. While she had warned
herself, that she could not hold back her feelings all the time; while Jake poured scorn on her, he kept
getting close to her.
Such capriciousness made their relationship confusing.
Megan’s response brought a frown to Jake’s face. He stared at the woman in front of him and noticed
the stubborn and aggrieved look on her face that seemed to be an expression of her dissatisfaction.
Is there anything wrong with what I said?
Jake did not understand why she got mad, nor could he get his head around why he cared about how
she felt. This was not something he would do, but he seemed to be doing a lot of this recently.
“There’s no need to be angry over this kind of thing. As long as you can do it, then I’ll definitely give you
much more than what you can get now.”
Seeing how aloof he appeared, Megan felt her heart go cold and looked away, her eyes dimmed with
sorrow.
“What if I say I can’t do it.” She let a contemptuous chuckle.
The look in Jake’s eyes turned cold, his lips pursed. “What now? Are you trying to go against me?”
She’s already insolent, and I’ve been tolerating her, but she’s really testing my limits now.
“Yes,” replied Megan expressionlessly with dull eyes.
Half closing his eyes, Jake forced a stiff smile as he tried hard to suppress the fury inside him.
The two of them locked eyes, none of them refusing to look away, as if the one who did would lose.
“Do you have to make such a choice?” Jake asked in a tone that was like a storm was brewing.
Even though Megan noticed it, she still stood her ground.
Tilting her head, she chuckled. As a gust of wind ruffled her hair, the look in her eyes turned indifferent.
Jake watched her in silence and seemed to sense a forlornness more profound than the emptiness
from her smile.
What kind of emotion is she having now?
“This is my decision because I don’t want to be the substitute for you now. I am me, so you may want to
live in the past, but I don’t.”
Megan knew exactly what impact her words would bring as she looked at Jake with an unwavering
gaze and waited for his reply.
