Chapter 3197
Coming Clean
He had made those weirdly possessive derations that pissed her off because she was acting as
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 futurey 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 rxing 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 be 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 ce. 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 nned on making you stay at the hospital overnight, butter changed my mind
and thought that it would be better to respect your wishes,” heughed, 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.
