Chapter 232 A Trap

As Leila was speaking, she turned away in a determined manner. Seeing her receding figure, Veron behind her clenched his fists in agony. He felt both disappointed and frustrated.

Staring at the woman's back, Daisy said excitedly, "Leila, you wanted me to be utterly discredited last time. But this time, I'm gonna make your life a living hell!"

When she arrived at the Mu Group, she entered the private elevator of the CEO. As the elevator was going up, Leila thought a lot. Today was a farewell to the past. From now on, she would be with Max with peace of mind and manage the relationship well.

She thought what happened today was a farewell to her past and her youth. Since then, her life energy was given to the man called Max. She refused to contact with any other men.

Though Max's request was a bit rigid, Leila felt rather relieved.

Inside the transparent glass office, Max was concentrating on his files while Leila was standing at the door and looking at the man's profile. His attentive look was really attractive. His occasionally tight lips made him look particularly serious. With a mysterious smile at the corners of Leila's mouth, those bad emotions in her heart vanished after seeing the man.

"When did you come?"

The man's voice awakened her consciousness. Leila stretched out her hand in his direction, "I just arrived. I didn't have the heart to disturb you when I saw you were so serious."

Hearing that, a faint smile played at the corners of Max's mouth. He was quite satisfied with such an answer of the woman. "You can take a seat for a while. I'll be okay in a minute," she said

Leila sat down on the sofa, picked up a book and read it carefully.

Looking up at the woman who was absorbed in her mind, Max was moved. Max couldn't help but pick up the woman's chin and kissed on the lips of Leila. "What happened in the company?"

Leila was shocked for a while. If she said that she didn't want to see that, Max wouldn't believe it either. "No Nothing. "

She left in a hurry today, so she didn't notice that there was something wrong with Max's face. And he said he wanted her to have lunch with him. Now it was past lunchtime, she suddenly realized it was not the right time. "Oh, have you had lunch ?"

Max stared at Leila's face, trying to see through her. Leila felt uncomfortable being stared, so she could not hide her panic when looking into the man's eyes.

He touched her cheek gently with his cool finger and asked, "is there anything wrong?"

Leila still shook her head. She didn't want to tell him what had happened today, and she didn't want the trust between them that had been established through hard work to be destroyed so easily. She also decided not to see Veron again, so this would not happen again.

"Really?"

Squinting his long and narrow eyes, Max seemed to see through Leila's heart. She was not a liar, and he believed in it.

At the same ti

ved. She slowly stood up and walked up to Max. "I want to explain to you. There is nothing between us!"

Today, she had made the most important decision and made a frank and honest decision. She hoped that Veron could give up on her and moved on.

Hearing that, Max's eyes turned dark. If it was in the past, he would have strangled the woman in front of him, but now he was a little hesitant. As long as he saw any other men around her, he would be angry for no reason. It was the first time he had such a feeling.

Leila stood straight and looked at him. She had said everything she should explain, and now she was like a child who had done something wrong waiting for his criticism and accusation. She felt powerless. "I have explained it, and I will listen to you!"

Leila felt like having gone through a life or death crisis. She was so tired and weak that she had to say such words. If it were not for Max, she might have turned around and left without any explanation.

Damn it! Max turned to glare at the little woman in front of her, with a gloomy face. Suddenly, his white fingers pinched her chin, and a red mark appeared on her white face immediately. Leila's expression was a little painful, but she never begged for mercy in front of Max. She wanted to save her dignity.

"Leila!" He said in a low and angry voice. Then Max forced Leila to look up into his bloodthirsty eyes, which seemed to burn out the woman in front of him at any time. "Pay attention to your identity. You should know that I can spoil you, and make you fall very miserable!"

"This woman had done something wrong, but she could still look into my eyes with a sense of right and ignore it," thought Max. This was something that no woman dared to do in front of him before. Now that Leila had done it, well, he wanted to see how capable she was.

There was a flash of disappointment in Leila's eyes, as she finally faced her heart, and lost it at the same time.
