Secret Crush

Chapter 111 Suspicion (Part One)

She agreed to the request of Mr. Zhang, but there was no guarantee of doing it. She didn't know where Mr. Zhang saw that she was not ordinary to Max. And it was exactly because of this that he asked her to help him.

In fact, Leila believed that if she wanted to find a person who was close to Max to intercede for her, wouldn't it be more appropriate for Rosa? At least she had a better chance of winning.

Anyway, Mr. Zhang trusted her very much, which was touched.

Leila entered the apartment with Mr. Zhang's anxiously.

Max had come back early. Judging from the thickness of the newspaper in front of him, he definitely had come back for more than half an hour.

She found that this special skill could help her judge exactly from the pages that Max had read and the time he stayed, which even made her feel a little incredible.

When hearing the sound of door opening, Max looked back at her with a deep sight that she couldn't understand. After a long while, he said, "come here."

"Oh," Leila said and then moved to sit beside him. She was hesitating about how to tell him the thing that Mr. Zhang had asked her to do.

"Have you finished what I asked you to do?"

He asked coldly. Leila paused, and then she nodded, "yes."

She knew that he was referring to the thing that he had given her and made Johnson sign a contract with her, which was something that could be predicted, wasn't it.

The contract would be good for both the Song Family. If they wanted to sign a contract with Max, they wouldn't agree with it unless Johnson was out of his mind. However, the odds of refusing it were almost zero. She pursed her lips and thought to herself.

"What did he say?"

Hearing that, Max turned his eyes back to the financial newspaper in his hand without lifting his eyes. Leila thought for a while and said, "he didn't say anything, but just said that he would give you the contract the day after tomorrow."

After a while, she said again, "But he said he wanted to give you a small entertainment company of his company. Let you see if you want it or not."

Hearing this, Max paused his hands flipping the newspaper, and then asked in a calm tone, "which one?"

Leila replied, "It is Morning Sun."

Hearing its name, Max instantly narrowed his long and narrow eyes, closed the newspaper in his hand, and then looked at her. His deep eyes were even more intoxicating. He said, "Morning Sun?"

Leila nodded. She didn't understand why he would react like that. Was it because there was a trap? Or was there something wrong with Johnson sending a company to Max?

After a while, a smile appeared at the corners of Max's mouth. "He's a calculating man."

Hearing his words, Leila was sure that Johnson was up to something, but she didn't know what his plan was.

"He have transferred an empty company to me, and left me with a lot of debts. Good for him!"

Hearing that, Leila broke out in a cold sweat. She didn't expect that Johnson would be so bold to caste his eyes on her. Didn't he know the man in front of her was not to be trifled with?

All of a sudden, Leila felt depressed. Her father had been trying to get rid of the trouble by taking advantage of her. If Max hadn't been so alert, he might have fallen into the trap. If there was anything wrong in the future, it had nothing to do with her father. She would bear all the consequences. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

'What a cruel way! He wants to take advantage of his daughter. I don't know what to say. Perhaps it's a good way to end his family, or perhaps it's better to sell his daughter for wealth, ' Leila thought to herself.

"Then please don't take it."

She said in an indifferent tone. Although she knew that Johnson had never taken her seriously, she was still unhappy. It was ridiculous to be calculated by her biological father.

Looking at her face, a glimmer of strangeness flashed across Max's deep eyes. He withdrew his gaze and said indifferently, "why don't you agree?"

Shocked, Leila looked at Max in disbelief. Did he know what he was talking about?

It was obvious a trap. He knew it clearly. Why did he still jump into it?

"He can't take his company on track, which only means that he is useless."

He said calmly. Leila lowered her eyes to hide her feelings.

What was she worried about? The man in front of her was so strong that no one could shake him. It was ridiculous that she was still so sentimental and worried about him.

Max raised his hand, put it on her chin, and gently raised her head. A pair of calm eyes stared at her. In a calm tone, he said, "did you look worried just now?"

Hearing his question, Leila didn't answer or deny but looked at him gently, with a surge of waves in her eyes. Max increased the strength of his hand and said in a low voice, "say it."

Leila felt pain, with her beautiful eyebrows wrinkled together. The pain in her chin spread to her heart. She pursed her lips and said: "No."

He didn't like her to lie to him, but even she herself couldn't figure out this time.

Her heart was full of complex feelings. She lowered her head and felt a burst of exhaustion.

Hearing that, Max loosened her chin all of a sudden. With a stumble and a treacherous fall, Leila knelt down by the side of the table. Her injury this morning touched again, leading to a sharp pain.

She frowned and tried her best to control herself from making any sound. She trembled with pain from her knees.

Without noticing her abnormality, Max turned and went upstairs. Not until his figure disappeared at the stairway did Leila dare to sit on the sofa. She carefully lifted up the hem of her dress, and then saw a piece of dark red gauze that had been bandaged.

She frowned and carefully removed the bandage from her knee. The wound was connected with the bandage, which made her tremble.

As she was thinking about how to deal with the wound, a shadow appeared. When she looked up, she saw a pair of eyes full of haze. She could not help but tremble. She said softly, "what's wrong with you?"
