“No matter which man I’m with, what does it have to do with you?”
Charity hung up impatiently with a cold voice.
Max gave her a thumbs up. “Awesome.”
Charity looked at him wearily. “What are you trying to do?”
“Nothing much. I just want him to know that you have a boyfriend so he’ll stop pestering you.” Max
grinned happily. “So you owe me again.”

Charity was so speechless that she did not want to say anything.
It was all too easy to owe him something.
Forget it. She owed him a lot anyway.
In the villa, Chester glanced at the time on his phone — 11:25 p.m.
‘How dare this woman be with Max at such a late hour?’
‘Is it just the two of them?’
‘What are they doing?’
‘Chatting? In bed? Sleeping?’
Chester was not a naive man. He would not believe that a man and a woman were simply chatting
together at such a late hour.
However, Chester somehow boiled with anger at the thought that Eliza was in another man’s embrace.
He wanted to kill her.
The feeling was not just indicative of a man’s possessiveness. It also showed something else.
It had been a long while since he had experienced that feeling. He vaguely remembered only
experiencing that feeling when he was in a relationship with Charity.
D*mn. Before he could conquer Eliza, she had better not think about being with any men except
himself.
With that, Chester leaped to his feet and took his car key. Then, he headed downstairs to his car and
sped toward Eliza’s villa.

At 11:40 p.m., Charity was leaning against the window, asleep.
Max took the chance to steal a look at her when he stopped at a red traffic light.
She was sleeping in a relaxed manner. Under the street lights outside the window, her eyelashes
trembled. Her skin was soft, a few strands of black hair were stuck to her slim neck, and the earrings
on her ear lobes were peeking out from her black hair. She looked very pretty.
Max quickly averted his eyes away, his heart beating fast. After that, a faint smile appeared on his face.
He was too familiar with Eliza’s face, but he had never had that feeling before. He only treated Eliza
like his sister.
Ever since her soul had changed, his feelings toward her had changed too.
To him, Charity was like a star in the sky.
No matter how hard he worked right now, he had already succeeded.
Still, Charity was someone he did not deserve to be with.
Other people claimed that Chester had defiled her.
To Max, she was always pure.
Nevertheless, he dared not act abruptly for fear that his enthusiasm toward her would cause her to stay
away from him.
After arriving at the villa, Max stealthily took out the car key from her handbag and opened the electric
gate. Only after he drove into the villa did he get off to go to the passenger seat and gently picked her
up.
