With a bland smile on her face, Leila said bluntly, "You've lost your company because of me, so I must listen to you from now on."
These words finally made Max understand the reason. Although the reason was somewhat far-fetched, he was still a little pleased. At least, it was not bad that this woman knew to be grateful to him.
Leila was conflicted. She wasn't clear about the fact that Max wasn't going to save her, and she was prepared to be thrown into the sea. But at last, Max appeared timely, thus Leila didn't know why Max did it.
"Why did you save me?"
Spencer had told Leila that Max was very hesitant. After all, the Mu Group was his company. He would absolutely never give up the whole Mu Group for a woman.
At this moment, the phone rang. It was from the old house, which indicated that Matt must have known something. Max looked at Leila with an apologetic look, then he answered the phone. Hearing a few words from the other side, Max hung up.
Leila looked up to see his expression, waiting for his answer.
Max kissed the woman's chin for a while. He didn't give her the answer as expected, but left with only a sentence, that was, wait for him to come back.
Leila couldn't sleep any more. After this matter, she had a new attitude towards life and she confirmed a point of view in the bottom of her heart that Max had a deep feeling for her. At least, he didn't give up on her in the end, which was totally different from Veron.
After Leila washed up and went downstairs, the maid had prepared the breakfast. When she saw Leila, she couldn't help saying something because Leila was gentler than Max. Yet as for Max, the maid could only be afraid of him.
"Where did Miss Leila go these days? Mr. Mu looks very worried."
Leila sat down at the table. She thought the maid was asking her where she was. Yet out of her expectation, the latter part was about Max, so she suddenly looked up at the maid, "Do you mean he is worried about me?"
It seemed that this was the first time for Leila to know that Max was worried about her. With a smile on her face, she said, "You said that he was worried about me, then tell me how he is worried about."
Though Leila didn't admit anything by saying something, she felt sweet in her heart. The maid recalled the performance of Max these days and emphasized that he locked up himself in the study at night, but got up early in the morning. Leila was silent for a while. No wonder Max looked a little tired.
"What’s more, he didn't have breakfast. It's always Robert who eating breakfast here."
Leila nodded, feeling more grateful. She didn't expect that she would misunderstand him like an idiot. She deserved it!
In the Mu family's old house.
Spencer happily took the paper which was signed by Max to senior Mr. Mu for his appreciation. Senior Mr. Mu took a look at it, trembled with anger, threw all the things on the table to the body of Spencer and scolded, "You are such a bastard! Don't you look a
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.
ssatisfied with Max for doing so many things for Leila. Now Max even dared to destroy his own younger brother for this woman. Matt would take action.
Max didn't think too much about it. He drove straight back to the villa. As for Spencer, he had a heavy hit. Five billion was a big amount of money that was enough for Spencer to suffer for a long time, so Max didn't worry that Spencer would make trouble in the company!
Back to the villa, Leila was cleaning the room with the maids. After such a big thing happened, she felt it necessary to do something for Max. When Max came back, he saw Leila sitting in the study, staring at the ashtray full of cigarette ends. "How much does this man like smoking?"
Maids were not allowed to enter the study room freely, so the cigarette ends were not cleaned in time.
Leila didn't notice the footsteps behind her until the burning man covered her. She panicked and tried to escape, but was suppressed by the man's big hand. "Let me go!"
As Leila gently tapped on Max's hand, she was full of gratitude to him. "Mr. Mu, can you tell me that if you smoked these cigarettes in a night?"
The man rested his head on Leila's neck, sniffed the unique scent from her body and hummed softly. Leila didn't say anything, but she smiled, "Then it meant that you're worried about me?"
"Whatever you think!"
Max didn't give Leila a direct answer, but his answer was enough to please Leila. At least he didn't deny it in person. In a good mood, Leila pushed away Max, "They don't dare to come in your study, so I have to clean it by myself."
Hearing that, Max looked at Leila with great satisfaction, as if she was really like a little wife during this period of time. Thinking of the word of wife, another word of marriage naturally came to Max's mind. With an inexplicable smile at the corners of his mouth, Max thought that he may need to prepare something.
Leila, with the ashtray in her hand, glared at Max. "Don't smoke and drink in the future!"
