Hearing that, Leila's heart couldn't help beating with excitement. Only Max could say such words in
such an aloof and arrogant tone.
Today's sun was not very strong, sending out a gentle light, which just shone on Max's side face
through the window. It seemed to have added a soft light to his skin. Looking at his side face, Leila lost
a breath.
Such a situation has happened more than once. A few times before, she could hypnotize herself and
think it was an illusion, but today she could clearly feel her change. Leila pressed her lips slightly with
an inexplicable expression.
"How did you walk?"
The tone of Max was still indifferent, yet there was some different feeling spreading in her heart while
Leila listening to his words. "I was stumbled by the staircase when I went upstairs just now, so I have
fallen" said Leila.
Max did not speak. He used the bandage in his hand to tie up her wound, and then he looked up at her
with indifference all the time. Looking at her slightly red face, he said in a low voice, "It seems that I
should not let you walk alone in the future."
Leila didn't know Max would be so charming while saying this until she heard it, so when she looked
into his eyes, her heart beat faster for no reason. Leila was familiar with this feeling, just like in the
University, her heart beat so fast every time she met Veron.
For Leila, Her wishful thinking had been thoroughly destroyed by Max, yet a little bit of foreboding
seemed to be appeared this time, which made her nervous. She suppressed her thoughts. She couldn't
continue to let it go. She had learned a few lessons last time, and if she didn't learn to restrain herself,
the result would probably not be as good as before, for Max might not be so kind as he has been for
the former two times.
They had a clear relationship. One wanted his power and the other wanted her body. They were willing
to cooperate. If other feeling has emerged, it would be unfavorable to their relationship.
Such a harmonious relationship could only be maintained between these two people to a certain
degree. Once it has been changed, they would no longer be harmonious for the balance would be
broken. Then perhaps she would not be able to continue to stay by the side of Max.
Even not for anything else, the thought that her mother was still in the hospital calmed her down
instantly. Looking at the side face of Max, the beat in her heart was stifled by her compulsion, and her
original feeling was stifled in the cradle.
"Okay."
When Leila was lost in her thoughts, Max' low voice came again. Leila went back to her senses in an
instant. She hurriedly nodded and said, "Can we leave now?"
Looking at her mysterious eyes, there was a hint of strangeness flashing across the eyes of MMax,
which Leila couldn't understand. Then he ignored it, stood up and walked out of the bedroom. Leila
knew that he was leaving, so she hurriedly got out of bed and followed him.
The wound on her body was just on her knees, so when she was walking, her skin was affected as
well. A kind of piercing pain spread. Leila looked a little pale. She tried her best to endure the pain and
followed behind Max.
When the latter walked out of the door of the apartment, Max looked back at her, and then his face
darkened and picked her up. Leila screamed, but soon she kept silent again. When she raised her
head, she could only see his smooth and tough chin. Leila couldn't help but her heart skip a beat, then
she was very unhappy about her own mood.
After adjusting her mood, Leila turned her eyes and stared at the buttons on his chest blankly until he
put her on the passenger seat. Mr. Zhang didn't go to work today, so Max drove by himself. His driving
skill was never doubted by Leila.
Therefore, after the car made a beautiful tail swing, Leila also hit the car window accurately.
Leila adjusted her position and remained calm on the surface, as if the violent crash did not knock her
down.
Out of the corner of his eye, the young woman sat upright with a serious look on her face. Max laughed
in his heart, and then he concentrated on driving.
Max enjoyed the pleasure of being unblocked. He drove at the highest speed and the car window was
always open. Thus the wind blew in from the window and blew their hair.
Leila's long hair was blown to him and entangled with him. The black Maybach was on the downtown
road. It nimbly flashed across all the cars, and finally they arrived at the suburbs.
Leila looked around and was confused.
'Didn't Max say we were coming by appointment? Why didn't we find anyone?'
However, the scene was somewhat familiar. She had been brought to this position when he had first
met Leila. In that case, he had finally decided on the establishment of the farm, and Leila became a
small shareholder. With such a lesson from the past, she could not help but think that today it might be
the same.
However, it was different from the last time. Last time, Max didn't explain his intention, yet today he
mentioned appointment accurately.
Although Leila didn't know much about the character of Max, she had a basic understanding of him. A
person like Max would never hide his true ideas by words. In other words, he disdained to lie.
Therefore, someone really waited here today.
After she combed everything up, Leila had an assumption. She looked around, trying to confirm her
guess.
In fact, Leila’s speculation was right. After parking the car on the roadside, Max waited quietly without
any explanation, or even a word. He just quietly stayed on the roadside.
Soon, a white car came from the opposite.
Leila was surprised at the scene. If she wasn't in the middle of it, she would think that the black trade
she saw on TV would be done in such a desolate place, like some shady deals.
As it turned out, her sixth sense was always right. After Leila had such ridiculous thoughts, even she
herself thought it was funny. The man who got out of the car, wearing a black leather coat and leather
pants, looked like the boss of the black market.
Without waiting for the man to say anything, Max opened the door and got out of the car. Since Leila
was in the car, for a moment she didn't know if she should get out or continue to stay here.
After thinking for a while, Leila decided to keep still. She sat in the car and watched them talking. But
Max didn't want her to get off the car, so she felt at ease sitting in the passenger seat and watched the
scene in front of her like a movie.
To be honest, many things has happened since Leila got to know Max, and she found it unrealistic. For
example, last time she was kidnapped by Spencer. Although such things have happened a lot in the
upper class, she had only heard of them, and she hadn't really experienced them.
When Leila thought of this, she didn't take the two men as her illusions. She just put her thoughts on
them. Perhaps they were really doing the business that she thought they were doing.
Staring at them, Leila felt excited.
From her point of view, Max's side face was very perfect. Then as for the man in front of her, who was
also quite good-looking, but his temperament seemed to be a ruffian, which made Leila frown slightly. It
must not be a good thing to talk with such a person. Perhaps what she thought was just what
happened now.
After a short conversation with the man, Max stood up and came back.
Seeing Max walking to the car, Leila slightly moved her body. After he got on the car, she couldn't help
but ask, "What are you talking about?"
Max glanced at her indifferently and did not answer. Leila pressed her lips and felt that she was asking
for a snub, so she stopped talking. After the car was started, she heard Max say in a low voice,
"Spencer is coming back."
Leila was stunned when she heard this. She didn't know what had happened that day when Max and
Rosa came back to the Mu family to visit Senior Mr. Mu. So when she heard that Spencer was coming
back, she was totally shocked.
Leila knew too well about the character of Spencer and there was so much disharmony between him
and Max. Although they were blood brothers, there seemed to be deep hatred between them as if they
were incompatible as water and fire. She couldn't imagine what would happen when Spencer came
back to the Mu family. Spencer was not a kindhearted man, and there were two completely different
personalities between him and Max.
Leila frowned and she was somewhat disapproved of what Max did.
In the eyes of Max, Leila's pretty little face was as lovely as ever. He could not help smiling. Still with
the same indifference in his tone, Max said, "Nothing serious, it's just that his behavior today made me
very unhappy."
Leila nodded and knew what he meant.
Since today Max came to discuss that Spencer went back to the Mu family, Spencer should be present
for the matter. However, the man who had just talked with Max was not Spencer.
What Spencer has done was really arrogant. Leila said angrily, "How could you let Spencer come
back?"
Hearing her angry tone, Max raised his eyebrows and found it somewhat funny. It was his business.
Why was she so indignant? Was it because she was on his side?
After saying that, Leila found something strange. It was not only because her mind has changed,
besides, in general, he would blame her for being too noisy, but unexpectedly, he didn't rebuke her
today.
The strange way they got along with each other made Leila a little uncomfortable. She moved her body
and didn't say anything. Sitting next to her, Max glanced at her and said calmly, "Don't worry. I can
handle him."
Leila felt even more uncomfortable after hearing what he said. She had felt that Max's style in the
morning seemed to be different from usual, but she couldn't tell what was the difference until now.
He was no longer as indifferent as before. His tone had obviously changed. Moreover, his attitude
towards her had also turned from indifference to caring about her thoughts now.
Was it due to influence or realization? Leila didn't know since when their relationship has begun to
transfer into this.
But there was one point that Leila knew clearly. That was she couldn't let it be this time. She had to be
firm in her heart, because she knew that Max was not someone she could handle.
Keeping a certain distance between two people was the way for them to live together for a long time.
This was also the experience that Leila had accumulated after she has been with Max for such a long
time. Leila looked ahead indifferently, and there was a hint of alienation appearing on her face.
Out of the corner of his eye, Max saw her emotion. He frowned in a way that was almost unnoticeable.
He knew clearly what the woman by his side was thinking about. Leila was a person who could not hide
her feelings. Her thoughts would be fully expressed on her face. So Max was very displeased with her
alienation towards him.
Max has always liked self-discipline women. So he has kept Leila by his side because she has kept this
kind of characteristic all the time. And he has been satisfied with her, too. But he didn't know since
when he preferred to see she reveal her nature.
