Chapter 3251 Little Rabbit
What Megan went through in her past life made her absolutely loathed being manipulated by others. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Hence, she refused to change her personality just for the sake of not crossing him.
Jake evidently didn’t understand enough; Megan never cared for whether Jake disliked or disrespected
her. What irked her was his unreasonable possessiveness ever since she admitted that she was
Megan. He had heedlessly ordered her around to complete all sorts of random tasks.
Megan was undoubtedly grateful for Jake’s help in the past, but it was difficult for her to remain unfazed
when she felt both love and hatred for him.
She was sick of her being stuck in this dilemma. On top of that, she had to see this man every single
day. It had been a long time since she had felt so repulsed at herself—and it was all because of him.
“Is that so? Then, you’re not at all like those previous women.” Jake’s brows tightened into a narrow
gaze on her.
Back then, women who threw themselves at him often expected something in return. Some greedily
leeched onto him for benefits they could get their hands on; others opted for the gentler path of
persuasion, treating him well in hopes that he would reciprocate their love.
However, all their actions only repelled Jake. He felt that it was meaningless to be around such pathetic
worshippers of wealth and power. Hence, his heavily guarded heart was set on finding someone that
was unlike these power-hungry people.
Megan was the only person who was different compared to everyone else in his memories. That
remained the same until this day.
Is she really this person who’s standing before me?
Jake’s gaze roamed over the woman standing in front of him; she had a narrow chin, fair skin, and
ordinary features. Apart from her striking eyes, nothing about her appearance resembled that of a
beautiful woman. However, her alluring demeanor under the moonlight piqued his attention.
She wasn’t dressed in anything overly exposing, nor did she have a curvaceous figure. It was her
gentility, her silence, as well as her tenacious presence that drew him in. They reflected in her gleaming
pupils and enthralling him with every passing moment.
His unwavering stare sent chills down her spine. She then questioned irritatedly, “Why are you looking
at me?”
The truth was that she relied on blind courage to utter such forceful words up till this point. Because
deep down, she was never as confident as the face she put on.
Should Jake continue to torture her, she could easily cut him out of her life and start anew. In any case,
it wouldn’t be the end of the world for her.
“It’s nothing.” Jake cupped his chin whilst looking up at the pitch-black sky. He continued, “It’s getting
late. Let’s head back to the village.”
In one swift motion, Jaked held Megan’s hand and led her along the moonlit path. Megan couldn’t help
but gape at the broad-shouldered man’s actions. Unnerved, her hand wriggled to break free from his
warm palm.
“Are you out of your mind? Why are you holding my hand when I’ve clearly gone against you?”
If this happened way in the past, he would have drenched her in snide comments and spat threats at
her face before ditching her. Knowing this, she couldn’t understand why he behaved so out of character
today.
Jake halted in his steps. The pale moonlight illuminated his maliciously glowing eyes as he turned to
gaze at her. “Do you really want me to abandon you here?”
“N-no!” Megan exclaimed.
His threat had snapped her back to her senses. Having grown up in the mountains, Megan was well
aware of the dangers posed by treacherous wildlife from deep in the mountains. So she shuffled closer
behind Jake for peace of mind.
Jake raised a brow in amusement at her sudden closeness. He had never known that she could be this
adorable and frightened, like a meek little rabbit. It improved his mood in an instant.
A sly grin curved on his face. “You’ll have to walk obediently alongside me. If you resist or cross me,
then I’ll feed you to the snakes.”
A chill crawled down Megan’s spine despite knowing that he was only joking. She quickly switched on
the flashlight on her phone and leaned in closer to Jake. They stayed like this as they gradually made
their way back to Queenston Village.
