Never Late, Never Away

Chapter 3115

True enough, Garret's fury turned into delight with Megan's report.

"I knew this would happen."

"Go feed the pigs.You've already delayed doing so an entire day" she added with a glare at Megan.

The kitchen utensils were spotlessly clean, indicating an absence of dinner that night.

Megan had overestimated Mia's resilience.

In her previous life, she had stooped to run errands for Mia was because she posed no threat.

This time, however, they were both on equal footing as Megan had managed to get herself signed on too.

Megan's constitution was frail.

Between starving the entire day to being submerged in the freezing river, she awoke the next day feeling feverish.

That wouldn't stop her from exacting her revenge, though.

Megan forced herself up to brush her teeth.She came to the washroom and pushed open the broken door like she always did, but it did not budge.

Megan surmised that she was perhaps weak from her fever.She pushed harder still but the door remained as firmly shut as ever.

Damn it!How did this happen? Megan gave the door a shake and immediately heard the rattle of a chain. This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

It must be Garret and Mia's doing.

Mia's laughter came from beyond the door.

"Stop struggling, Megan.The investor told me yesterday that he plans to sign me alone.You being there will make no difference.Don't waste your energy.I will apply for a leave on your behalf!"

"Hmph, little b*tch! Cursed child!" came Garret's voice.

"The one day I don't watch over you, you try to steal Mia's birthright.I'm warning you now.Don't even think about it! I will be sitting outside this door today. We'll see how you get past me!"

Megan heard the sound of a wooden stool being dropped to the floor, followed by Garret's grunt as she sat down.

Megan slid to the floor, hitting her head helplessly.

Am I going to be suppressed by them again, even in this new life?No, definitely not! The sun was already high in the sky.

Everyone who had been standing in the scorching heat already felt irritable, especially the investor.He had been sipping water incessantly and complained about the heat despite constantly being fanned.

"Damn it! Felix, you take over from here.If Megan isn't here by the time the production crew leaves, it counts as a breach of contract, and we won't be signing her! Let's go!" the investor yelled and left in a huff.

Felix squinted into the distance and held on to the belief that Megan would make it.He had never misjudged a character before.

Under normal circumstances, the director would hurriedly complete the project and wrap up the shoot at the risk of incurring the investor's wrath.

Unexpectedly, the entire production crew waited.

Mia felt desperate.She clenched her teeth at the thought of Megan's audacity for wanting to be a movie star.

Impossible! "Mr.Woods, my sister told me yesterday that filming is such a tiring and difficult affair.She much prefers staying home to farm, so she had decided not to come’ Mia said as she smiled sweetly and fluttered her eyelashes.

She was confident in her ability to influence men.

Tiring and difficult? Felix frowned, not believing a word of it.

He did not think Megan was a young lady who was afraid of a little tiredness and difficulty.

On the other hand, Mia appeared to be cute and innocent, but she was capable of great deviousness as she had so amply demonstrated.

Perhaps she had felt guilty about coming up with a bold lie that Mia did not dare meet Felix's eyes.

In her experience, the investor was easier to converse with.He had mentioned that he was affiliated with Starling Media.

Mia paced in search of a spot to wait for shooting to begin.

As she was doing so, she envisioned her rise to stardom in show business.

With my looks and brains, I will be a huge star.

At that thought, Mia was so convinced of her beauty that she felt like even the production crew were beneath her.

Felix ignored Mia and kept his eyes fixed on the road ahead.

As the sun dropped lower and lower down the mountain, the crew showed signs of impatience, especially Mia.

"Mr.Woods, when are we going to begin?"

"We'll begin when Megan shows up"
