On the other side, after Briana Cameron and Astrid left the mall, they both couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
“I really wanted to see Kiley’s expression when she found out that this mall was the least profitable of all the malls

Briana Cameron raised an eyebrow, “Don’t worry, that day will definitely come!”
“It’s not early now, I’ll take you home, we can hang out another day.”
“Mm–hmm.”
Returning to Gilded Bay Villa, it was already past nine in the evening.
Briana Cameron had just entered the villa when she saw Maxim sitting on the sofa, reading documents.
Her steps faltered for a moment, she frowned and said, “Mr. Yoder, why didn’t you read the documents in the
study?”
Maxim lifted his gaze to her, his eyes like a calm, deep pool, giving Briana Cameron a sense of inscrutability.
“Didn’t I tell you before to call me Maxim?”

“It’s okay, I would remind you, and we still had plenty of time, you could get used to it slowly.”
Meeting his intense gaze, Briana Cameron’s heart tightened, and she

quickly lowered her head to hide the panic in her eyes.
good.”
Maxim put away the files, stood up and said, “I’m going to the study, you should go back to the bedroom.”
“Maxim……I had something to tell you.”
“What?”
For some reason, under Maxim’s gaze, Briana Cameron suddenly felt nervous. Her mind went blank, and she
couldn’t utter a single word of what she had originally planned to say.
“Forget it, let’s talk about it later.”
“Good.”
After Maxim left. Briana Cameron hurried back to her bedroom, her face full of frustration.
Originally, she planned to tell him that she was willing to give their relationship another try. But when the words
came to her lips, she just couldn’t bring herself to say them.
Thinking about how she couldn’t utter a single word in front of him just now, Briana Cameron felt like she might as
well hit herself with a block of tofu and die. He must have thought she was inexplicable.
Feeling depressed for a while, Briana Cameron got up and took her pajamas to the bathroom to take a bath.
She came out after taking a bath, Maxim had already taken his bath, wearing his pajamas and reading a book on

Briana Cameron’s gaze lingered on his pajama buttons for a few seconds, seemingly lost in thought, before she
quickly averted her eyes, filled with guilt.

Why would you want to unbutton his pajamas? You were clearly not such a lustful person before! Wake up!
With great difficulty restraining herself from looking his way, Briana Cameron cleared her throat and said, “I’m
going to blow–dry my hair later, it might disturb your reading.”
Maxim closed the book in his hand, looking at Briana Cameron and said, “I’ll blow it for you.”
“No… No need…”
Seeing her eyes dodge, Maxim couldn’t help but laugh.
As the corners of his lips curled up, his features came alive, looking infinitely better than when he was
expressionless. Briana Cameron’s heart unconsciously began to race again.
This man… was just too handsome to the point of inciting universal indignation…
Ever since Briana Cameron realized she had feelings for him, she found it increasingly difficult to resist his tender
and affectionate gaze.
“Briana, were you being shy?”
