Never Late, Never Away

Chapter 3359 Stay Away From Him

Right now, Megan felt like she was treading on a field of daggers, at risk of losing her life anytime.

Seeing that she wasn’t going to reveal anything, Jake couldn’t stop the discomfort from spreading across his heart. “Alright, I get what you mean. I thought you were keeping something from me, so I was reconsidering the business deal. Looks like I read too much into it.”

Megan bit her lip and fell silent. After a brief silence, she looked up. “If possible, stay away from him. I can’t tell you the reason now.”

Jake frowned and stared at the woman in front of him. She was gazing at him pleadingly, the conflict in her gaze evident. Her eyes were gloomy like pearls with a thin layer of dust over them.

Something tugged at his heartstrings when he realized Megan’s secret was worse than he thought. She’s just a woman from the countryside. So why did it seem like she’s shrouded in mysteries?

Jake couldn’t figure that out, but he knew she wouldn’t say anything. He gave up on trying to force an answer out of her and fell silent.

After a long time, Jake finally broke the silence.
