After finish saying these cold words, Max went into the darkness, leaving Robert in a mess in the wind. ‘Was he still the cold CEO?’
The further Max walked, the higher the weeds became. Max was tall, and with two or three movements, he stepped on these weeds and looked for Leila along the way they had came over. As he had imagined, messy sounds came out in unison. At this moment, a person appeared to be so insignificant in the mountain. Under the faint light, it was difficult for him to move forward on the path.
Thinking that Leila was afraid of the dark, Max could imagine what the little woman would be like now. The man's deep eyes were even more determined. He must find that woman as soon as possible.
It was clear that someone had passed on a road as some grass was trampled by the side. After looking around carefully, Max had a strong feeling that the person he was looking for was here.
Without hesitation, Max walked in. The weeds here were much thicker than the outside. It seemed that very few people would come in here. He continued walking.
Occasionally, he would see some grass trampled on the ground along the roadside, which made Max even surer the position of Leila.
The light of the flashlight flashed across Leila's face. She thought it was an illusion, yet she opened her eyes and slowly looked up. Her eyes were as dark as the night. She was scared, and she wanted someone to save her, but she waited so long that she was about to fall asleep.
"Leila!"
Max could not help but make a sound. In such a case, he guessed that the little woman would have been scared to faint, or perhaps she had fallen asleep, so he had to call her name.
The sound of the wind was mixed with her name. Leila braced herself up to sit up and looked around.
The flashlight in Max's hand was shaking around, for Max hoped that Leila could see it, "Leila..."
Leila heard it clearly this time, and the light of the flashlight which was from far to near has been flashing all the time. She struggled to raise her spirit and looked at the distance until the familiar voice came close to her. A hint of shock, and then more surprise came into her eyes.
"I am here."
In response to the Max's call, Leila promised at once without hesitation. When hearing the woman's voice, Max suppressed the excitement in his heart and walked over.
In the darkness, Max could only see that Leila curled up while she was holding herself tightly, which made her seem to look insecure. When he walked up to her, the woman held his waist instantly. "I'm scared!"
Leila felt wronged, squeezing out two words from her nose. A sort of impulse struck in his heart, and Max pinched Leila's chin to kiss her. Leila was tired and hungry. Besides, her body had no strength at all. Thus she didn't refuse the kiss.
Feeling that the little woman was a little tired, Max raised his head and looked at her frightened face. "Are you scared now?"
Leila nodded. She has been afraid at the moment when darkness be
ed a few steps forward quickly, and Leila followed up. "What do you mean? Did you know something again? "
"Charles!"
Max didn't hide his emotions at all. He boldly spoke out Charles's name. These days, he had been waiting for an explanation from Leila. But this woman was stubborn. She not only didn't explain, but also gave him a cold war. In order to control himself, he endured not seeing her.
"We are just friends. There’s nothing more. I swear to you that there was nothing and there would be nothing."
Looking at Leila's serious look, Max said, "That's the best!"
"Then can you promise me one thing?"
In the next second, Max had a gloomy face, "Make a deal with me?"
Leila shook her head. Of course she dared not negotiate with him, but she hasn't visited her mother for a long time, so she said directly in a hurry, "As long as you don't restrict me to visit my mother, I promise you that I will not contact any other men!"
The man's lips twisted. This woman dared to negotiate with him, but this seemed to be a good bargain. "Are you sure?"
Leila strongly nodded her head. Since she knew who she loved, she had no plan to have any relationship with other men, and naturally nothing would happen as before.
There was a smile on Max's face, which was not clear in the darkness. Leila kept walking on by following Max. They seemed to have talked a lot on the way. Leila could not believe that he has answered so many questions.
They have gone out of the jungle unconsciously. Looking at the mottled light in the distance, Leila cried happily, "We finally come out. I'm so tired!"
Finally, the last bit of strength that could support her was gone, and her weak body was hanging in the arms of Max. Without hesitation, he lifted her in his arms and walked towards the resort.
Looking at the exhausted woman in his arms, Max quickened his pace.
When Robert and Wendi saw that Max was coming in with Leila in his arms, they stood up from the sofa almost like jumping. "Mr. Mu."
