Chapter 3143


    Megan naturally didn''t fall for that, nor was she so foolish that she would believe that Josiah was here


    to talk to her about the script at that hour.


    However, she couldn''t afford to offend the assistant director.


    Of course, the phenomenon of directors bedding actresses wasmonce in showbiz, and it was


    all consensual.


    Some actresses would even voluntarily offer themselves to the directors in hopes of getting more


    scenes or better roles.


    That was why showbiz was regarded as a serpentine industry.


    Of course, Megan wasn''t such a person.


    That held true for her both past and present life.


    As she couldn''t offend Josiah or allow herself to be sullied, she had no choice but to open the door


    considering the current situation.


    However, she took some precautions andtched the security chain from inside.


    She merely opened the door a fraction for Josiah to speak.


    "What''s the matter, Mr.Zeller? Let''s just talk here.My room is rather messy, so I''ll refrain from inviting


    you in? she murmured apologetically.Through the gap in the door, she could see Josiah leering at her


    as though wishing he could see through her pajamas.Megan''s rejection was already clear as day, yet


    Josiah made no move to leave.


    With his hands in his pant pockets, he darted his gaze around while saying, "Megan, this can''t be


    exined in a few words, and it''ll definitely dy the filming tomorrow if it''s put off.Look, it''s chilly out


    here, and I''m wearing a short-sleeve shirt.Why don''t you let me in first, huh?"


    Left with no other choice, Megan opened the door a fraction and handed him a jacket.


    Then, she insisted, "I''m really not feeling well, so why don''t you go back first, Mr.Zeller?"


    As she said that, she made to close the door.


    However, Josiah grabbed her wrist before she could do that.


    "Hey, you should really know your ce, Megan! I have some power on set, after all.You merely y a


    supporting role, so the director wont bother about you.No one will say anything even if I change


    actresses anytime!"


    When Josiah''s sweet talk failed, he became threatening with thinly-veiled threats.


    With that, Megan naturally understood the consequences of offending him.It was only after she had


    exerted quite some force did she manage to retract her hand from Josiah''s grasp.


    Upon seeing that he wasn''t nning on giving up until he had his prey cornered, she had no choice but


    to shed all pretense of amiability.


    "Please have some self- respect, Mr.Zeller.Otherwise, I''m going to call for help."


    "Alright, that''s enough.I know your concern, so hurry up and let me in now that no one is out


    here.Otherwise, you''ll be humiliated if things get out of handter"


    At that, Megan took a step back without saying anything.


    "Don''t be such an ungrateful wretch! It''s already an honor that I came to seek you out, so open the


    door right this instance!"


    It was obvious that Josiah never expected her to rebuff him, so he was now resorting to the stick again


    when the carrot didn''t work.


    I''m a newbie without any connections, so I might not be able to survive in the showbiz anymore if I


    were to offend him.But I''ve already suffered from such degradation in my past life.


    Do I really have to put myself through it again in this lifetime? No! Never!


    "Thank you for your concern, Mr.Zeller.If this is business, let''s talk tomorrow.But if it''s personal, I''m


    really not worthy of your regard.Good night, and see you tomorrow."


    After saying that, Megan shut the door tightly.


    All at once, Josiah''s infuriated cursing rang out from outside the door.


    "Hmph! You''re merely a wh*re! Why can''t I bed you when even Jonas Wulff could do so? Haha, stop


    feigning innocence!"


    Evidently, Josiah didn''t give up.


    Nheless, Megan was also angered upon hearing that.


    "Again, please have some self-respect, Mr.Zeller.I have no rtionship whatsoever with Jonas Wulff.It''s


    "Why, are you unwilling to open the door because it''s me here? If it were Adam Kennedy, will you be


    greeting him with your legs spread wide on the bed?"


    It wasmon knowledge among the production team that Adam and Josiah''s rtionship was


    strained.


    "Please watch your words, Mr.Zeller.I, Megan Rockford, am not the kind of person you think."


    Outside the door, Josiah leaned his entire weight against the door, cracking open the door and trying to


    make his way in.His eyes were fixed intently on Megan.


    After contemting it time and again, Megan knew that she had no choice but to thoroughly offend


    him.

    Using all her might, she finally managed to close the door.


    After shutting it, she swiftlytched the deadbolt.


    After doing all that, she leaned back against the door, her emotions a chaotic mess.
