Chapter 3298 I Do Mind

“Stop. Are you done?”

When Jerry saw both of them finally falling silent, he swept his gaze around and stood up holding the script.

However, no one responded as they were all rendered speechless by what had just occurred. Not minding the silence at all, Jerry rambled on, “Just now, Mr. Swanson and I had a discussion. Mia’s screen time will be increased while Megan will be “caught” halfway and be eliminated.”

Just a few words alone was enough to dictate how the script and focus of the filming in the show would change. Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

It was now obvious that the director had decided to cast Megan in a supporting role for this episode.

Under such circumstances, there was no point in protesting further. Osmond had either offered some attractive terms or threatened him to do it.

Hence, Megan replied at once. “Alright, I accept it.”

Given how Megan agreed without any hesitation, Jerry stared at her in surprise and frowned.

Raising his eyebrows, the sad look in his eyes penetrated Megan’s heart. “I didn’t expect you to readily agree as I assumed that you would mind.”

Obviously, no one would believe it if she said she didn’t care. However, Megan was someone rational and knew that even if she minded, there was no way for her to turn the situation around.

Instead of embarrassing herself by protesting angrily, she figured she might as well have some fun and pretended not to care. That way, she would get on Mia’s nerves instead.

Raising her eyebrow, Megan collected her thoughts. Pretending to nod in acknowledgment, she replied calmly, “I do mind but I don’t want to delay work any further.”

“Stop pretending to be noble. It’s just nauseating.”

Rebutting her without hesitation, Mia’s eyes were filled with contempt. However, Osmond shot her a stern glance to warn her to keep her mouth shut.

Feeling upset, he was frustrated at what a loose cannon Mia was. Is it really so difficult for her to restrain herself for a little bit?

To be honest, Megan’s character and capability have far exceeded that of Mia. However, she is just too rebellious and doesn’t have a face that could launch a thousand ships.

Oblivious to what was going through Osmond’s mind, Megan glanced at Mia’s arrogant expression. Folding her arms, Megan then stared daggers at her.

“I am talking to Mr. Thompson and not you. As a woman, don’t you know what is restraint and respect? Furthermore, if I’m considered disgusting, then you will have a tough time finding someone in this world who is more disgusting than you are.”

Raising her eyebrow, Megan maintained a calm expression. After all, she was used to Mia causing trouble. Hence, she would never let any of Mia’s words hurt her.

Megan smiled when she saw how angry Mia was. As if it wasn’t enough, she added fuel to the fire. “However, I did recall you mocking me once on a flight for accepting a role in this variety show. You

mentioned that it was a childish and crappy program. So why are you now clinging on to this show so desperately despite having been eliminated?”

When everyone heard Megan’s question, their expressions drastically changed. All of them glared at Mia with their hearts filled with animosity.

Just when she thought she had the upper hand over Megan, Mia didn’t expect to be suddenly stabbed in the back. With a darkened expression, she stood up awkwardly and scowled at Megan instead.

“Alright, that’s enough.”

When Jerry realized that they were going to start quarreling again, he quickly stood helplessly between them to calm things down. It was just as Megan had said, he too didn’t want work to be delayed any further.

“As long as she keeps her mouth shut, I won’t say a word.” Megan ignored Mia while standing aside without much care. Even her tone sounded aloof.

When she saw Megan’s condescending response, Mia was outraged. However, Osmond glared angrily at her, forcing her to keep a lid on her emotions. After all, he no longer wanted to hear another word from her.
