Never Late, Never Away

Chapter 3178

"Ah!"

Heads turned at Melissa's piercing scream.

Gossip broke out through the crowd.

"Help me up!"

Melissa raged at her dumbfounded manager, keeping her hands tightly across her exposed chest.

Megan was secretly pleased with the turn of events.She slipped out of the place unnoticed with Donna in tow.

"She's really something, huh"

Megan commented as she powdered her face in the corridor.

Donna smiled awkwardly and said, "They're all like Jacinta.They love creating drama wherever they go, thinking it's going to shoot them to fame."

Megan shook her head and leaned on the wall.

"At least Jacinta has what it takes to do that.Melissa's just suffering from princess syndrome."

A laugh burst out of Donna at Megan's snarky comment.

She's hit the nail right on the head.

"Megan?"

Aman's gentle voice reached Megan's ears just as Megan and Donna were killing time in the corridor before the start of the launch event.

Megan turned around, recognizing Herman's voice. Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

"I didn't expect to bump into you here."

Herman was wearing his usual pair of gold-rimmed glasses and a sharp black suit.

Megan merely glanced at him before turning her head away in annoyance.

"Is it? What a coincidence.I'm not happy about it, thought."

Megan did not want to entertain him, but Herman had already planted his annoying self before her.

Herman was not blind to the hostility that was radiating from Megan.

Arching a brow lightly, he asked thoughtfully, "I've been wanting to ask you something.Do you hate me that much?"

"It's much more than hate."

Megan's unforgiving reply caused Herman's features to stiffen up.

"Well, Ms.Rockford, what grudge do you have against me?"

Grudge? Megan scoffed as if Herman had just told her a horrible joke.Coldly, she gritted out, "It's not a simple grudge.It's pure hatred, betrayal, and humiliation."

Glaring at a confused Herman, she suddenly felt disgusted by his presence.

"Ms.Rockford, you're joking, right?"

Herman mocked as he pursed his lips slightly.

"When have I ever been close enough to you for such things to happen?"

Megan's anger boiled over at his words.

"You know what? You're right.You don't seem too familiar to me after all.I wonder who's the one trying to approach me after knowing I'd be at today's launch event."

Herman's expression darkened at her sarcastic comments.

Megan pulled Donna with her as they squeezed their way through the crowded backstage.

"Megan, that wasn't too nice, was it?"

Donna had always thought Herman seemed rather courteous and classy.

"There's nothing bad about it."

Megan hid in a corner to avoid stirring up another trouble.She threw all thoughts of Herman out of her mind.

"Maybe Herman likes you.Your words were too harsh."

Donna made a small heart with her hands.She looked like she was hoping for a romance to blossom between Megan and Herman.

"That's enough.Don't try to matchmake us."

Megan tilted her head away, gazing coldly at another spot in the room.She had never raged like this in front of Donna before.

Donna knew she had ruffled Megan's feathers.

Grabbing onto her elbow, Donna apologized, "I'm sorry; I just want what's best for you.It can't be worse than hanging your hopes on someone as dangerous as Jake"
