A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William)

Chapter 3197

Coming Clean

He had made those weirdly possessive declarations that pissed her off because she was acting as Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

Megan. However, his opinion of her seemed to be that she would never be anything but an amateur.

Is that so?

Megan couldn’t stop herself from considering the question: if she truly was good-for-nothing, then why

was she reborn into this lifetime?

She understood that clumsiness and luck were things that a person was born with, but whether or not

you could change your own future lay solely in your own hands.

She was fine with being good-for-nothing, or even useless. If she kept up this pace and made progress

one step at a time, she would surely surpass Mia and prove Herman wrong!

Megan prepared to leave the hospital and head home. She was in an incredibly depressed mood after

that conversation with Jake and wanted nothing more than a relaxing hot bath.

Unfortunately, she’d barely taken a single step out of the hospital grounds when a car drove up to her,

sighing heavily when she recognized it as Jonas’ car.

It was already getting dark outside and he still hadn’t left.

The car windows rolled down to reveal Jonas sitting in the driver’s seat. “Get in.”

Knowing that she had no other choice, she obediently got into the car, all the while Jake’s warning from

earlier was still ringing in her ears. It’s not that I have to listen to his advice.

She had gotten into the car only because she was mad at Jake, but Jonas assumed that she’d done so

because she’d realized her mistakes and felt bad.

His cold expression softened somewhat, turning his attention to focus on the road before him as he

started up the car. “Shall I send you home?”

Megan leaned her head against the window as she stared emptily at the passing cars and street lights.

She made a simple sound of agreement, too absorbed by her lingering feelings of frustration and anger

to think of anything else.

Jonas could tell that she was unhappy, but couldn’t figure out why. All he could do was try to lighten the

atmosphere.

“I gathered my thoughts while waiting downstairs just now. Are you sure that we can’t be friends,

Megan?”

He was being sincere. There was a small voice buried in the back of his mind that kept screaming to

get closer to her and to know her on a deeper level.

But his question shocked Megan, causing her whole body to stiffen.

“Are you sure that’s what you want? Won’t we get misunderstood even more if we become friends?”

she argued. “I just really don’t want to get into more scandals with you, and it’s not like they’re doing

you any good either.”

“That’s not something for you to be worried about,” he replied, eyebrows furrowing in dissatisfaction. “I

don’t care even if you reject me. No one can stop me from doing what I want as long as I’ve made my

decision.”

Megan knew that. She shook her head, swallowing the words stuck in her throat.

“If you insist, then I have nothing to say. It’s not like I have many friends anyway. I don’t care as long as

your reputation isn’t affected because of me.”

Megan had never truly hated Jonas in the first place. She merely hated the idea of associating herself

with him because she’d already dragged him into her mess once, and didn’t want to cause any more

trouble for him.

After all, they barely knew each other to even be considered acquaintances.

“Really?” Jonas perked up, unable to hide the sheer happiness in his voice. “I don’t mind at all.”

Megan chuckled, stretching her arms and back out while recalling the events of the entire day. “Thank

you.”

“It was nothing. I’d planned on making you stay at the hospital overnight, but later changed my mind

and thought that it would be better to respect your wishes,” he laughed, scratching the back of his

head.

There was an unfamiliar, gentle look on his face. the passing lights casting striking shadows against the

contours of his face. Megan just nodded and waved her hand in a dismissing motion.
