Leila was depressed because of the failure of the banquet plan. She glanced at the banquet hall where most of the guests had already left, and when she was about to walk with the crowd, her arm was grabbed by someone. She looked back and looked at Max in confusion.
On the surface, Max was always calm. Regardless of Leila's gaze, he took her straight to Johnson, who was very flattered by Max's sudden visit. With a greedy smile on Johnson's face, he asked, "Mr. Mu, have you had a good night?"
Max glanced at him indifferently and asked in an indifferent manner, "Mr. Song, you seem to have some issues with Miss Lily, who was invited by me?"
Hearing that, both Johnson and Leila were shocked. The former was shocked that Lily was invited by Max, while the latter was shocked that Max was defending her. Looking at his side face, Leila pressed her lips. She couldn't figure out why he was doing this at the moment.
‘No matter for what reason, I can't offend Max.’ Johnson made a wry smile, "Mr. Mu, you're thinking too much. Lily is generous and elegant. Besides, she's a super star in the entertainment circle. None would dislike her."
Johnson has been doing business for so many years, so he knew how to leave a way out for himself.
Leila laughed scornfully in her heart. She asserted that if it was not for the special situation tonight, Johnson couldn't resist the temptation of Lily. But now he pretended to be a gentleman. If he was not dissolute, then there wouldn't be Daisy and her mother!
Now that Max has achieved his goal, he walked out of the banquet hall directly without paying any attention to what Johnson said flatteringly. Seeing that, Leila followed him in a hurry.
Johnson watched their receding figures in place. A hint of strangeness flashed across his face, which was fille
Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.
To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.
"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."
She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.
Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.
ght person?"
Max's eyes were as deep as a pool of water. He said, "Bertha."
Leila's body trembled, not because of Bertha, but the tone of Max. Bertha was once his woman, and now she was easily used as he didn't want her. Such ruthlessness of Max made Leila tremble.
Perhaps it was because that Max has felt her emotional change, he held her in his arms. His tone of voice was so soft that it was almost seemed to be dripping with water.
"Good girl."
Leila's heart sank. She couldn't understand the subtlety of Max, but she knew clearly that the man in front of her was unpredictable and she had no idea what kind of feeling he really had by what he said.
When Leila returned to the apartment, it was already late at night. After the party, her feet in high heels were so sore. She sat on the sofa and rubbed her ankle. After that, Max walked straight up the stairs, while Leila withdrew her gaze.
From the beginning to the end, Max was a bystander. He took the attitude of seeing a show to watch Leila fight against the Song family, and gave her one or two suggestions occasionally, which was to make the game more interesting. With a gloomy face, Leila was haunted by some indefinable emotion.
