"How's it going? Is it connected?"
Matt stared at the Butler when he was making the phone call, as if he was afraid that he might have missed something. The Butler dialed several times with the phone in his hand, and the result was no exception. He kept wiping sweat from his forehead and said, "Senior Mr. Mu, it's off!"
Matt angrily poked the floor with his walking stick and shouted, "He is rebel! He is rebel!"
"Senior Mr. Mu, don't be angry. Perhaps Mr. Max has something difficult to explain now. My Lord, you should take care of yourself."
Matt violently coughed. He grabbed the sleeves of the butler and shouted, "call Dan over!"
Dan had always been loyal to him. He was the most capable general among his subordinates. It was also he who planned the incident last time.
Seeing Matt's pale face, Dan got worried and poured a glass of water for him. "Please don't get angry, Senior Mr. Mu."
Matt nodded. "You can take him back to me in England no matter what."
Without any question, he left. Matt let out a long breath, his mind full of hatred for Leila.
Leila didn't wake up until the afternoon. She got up to make sure that she didn't see Max in the room. She found him sitting on the tea table on the balcony with a book in his hand. In front of him was a cup of light tea, the smoke rising up. The setting sun was behind him, and there were several blooming small flowers printed into the harmonious scene.
Max took off the black suit with a cold atmosphere, and with the clean white shirt looked like a young boy full of dreams.
She didn't have the heart to disturb such a beautiful scene, so she was just stunned there.
Out of the corner of his eye, he felt someone was there. He raised his head and looked indifferently. "You are awake."
Leila nodded and walked towards the book in his hand. It was a book in English. "It's a rare chance for you to read such kind of book."
Max pulled her to sit down in a rattan chair next to him, and she slightly leaned on his shoulder, sniffing the taste of the sunlight on his body. "I really hope time can be still."
He lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead. "You will experience such a life every day in the future."
Leila held his arm and said sweetly, "it's so good to have you."
Max closed his book and stood up. "Well, the weather is good today. Let's go out and buy something by the way."
Leila nodded sluggishly, leaning her whole body on him as soft as a bone, and was reluctant to leave. Max patted her cheek, "good girl, go to change your shoes."
After getting ready to go out with her, a cigarette butt appeared on the originally clean street somehow. Max frowned slightly and looked at the cigarette butts closely, but he didn't find any suspicious person.
What he did not know was that after the incident last time, Dan had brought his elite subordinate with him. Naturally, it would not be so easy to be discovered by Max.
Leila looked in the direction of the man's gaze, and asked, "is there anything over there?"
Shaking his head, Max walked forward with L
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.
took over the Mu Group, he had become a cold-blooded CEO.
Hearing what Leila said, he remembered that he was young and happy before.
"Are you afraid of me?"
Leila bit the straw and looked at him mischievously. "I was scared before, but now I'm not. You look pretty when you laugh, but why don't you often laugh? Since when did you stop laughing? Have you been crossed in love?"
Max called out Leila's name, and she stopped all her guesses. The man opposite had a long face, and she lowered her head like a child who did something wrong. Max rubbed her hair and said, "all right."
She mentioned his first love in the past. After Rosa left, Max seldom smiled. Being silent was his most charming feature. He stopped her just now, because he didn't want Leila to feel bad for what happened in the past.
Leila felt wronged. She raised her eyes to look at him, while Max looked at her in a somewhat helpless manner. "I I just don't want you to be unhappy with what happened in the past. "
"Really?" Suddenly, Leila sat up beside Max, with her hands holding his arm. "Then tell me now, do you still have a past in your heart?"
"No!" said Max firmly
Leila was not interested in it at all. She lowered her head and thought, 'Max's answer is too blunt. It's more likely to comfort me. I'm not happy when I return to my seat.'.
"What's wrong?"
Leila shook her head, "nothing. I'm wondering what kind of man you are. Why can't I understand you ?"
"Okay, stop thinking about it. It's time for us to go back," said Max, rubbing her head
Nestling in his arms, Leila seemed a little upset. But Max knew what made her upset, so he held her closer and asked, "Leila?"
"What?"
"You don't even listen to me. What did I say in the Hainan?"
Leila stared at him in amazement. He confessed his love to her in Hainan, but he just said that she had taken his heart. He had never said he loved her.
"What are you thinking about? Didn't I tell you can ask me what you want to know?" said Max, letting go of her hand and putting it in his arms
