Hiding Behind Her Superficiality novel Chapter 130

Chapter 130

“Alright, Max. You should go back to university now. I’ll take care of Dad.” When Callum suddenly realized Max had skipped classes to come to the hospital, he was furious.

“I’ll take care of Dad, Callum. Since you’re busy with work, you should go back to the company.” Max would usually obey Callum, but he was suddenly obstinate at this point.

“Alright, stop arguing. Since I’m jobless now, I’ll look after him. Both of you should go and do your own things.” There was no doubt that Blake’s words were convincing.

After giving it some thought, Callum nodded in agreement. He sent Max back to university first. The moment they arrived at the entrance, Max saw a familiar figure.

Elspeth recognized her as well. She exclaimed, “Isn’t that Yelena?”

At that moment, Yelena was holding a man’s hand as they shuffled toward the entrance.

Max found the man familiar. He soon recalled that he was an infamous thug in the university. However, he was handsome. As such, even though he was a rascal, many women still fell head over heels for him.

“Is Yelena in love?” The moment Elspeth finished speaking, she quickly covered her mouth as she realized she had said something wrong.

It was a well-known fact that Yelena had been wooing Max. Even if she was a flirtatious person, she couldn’t possibly fall in love with someone else barely two weeks later.

“I don’t care whether she’s in love.” Max didn’t seem to mind it as he looked away, but he still paid attention to them from the corner of his eye.

Suddenly, the man extended his hands and pulled Yelena into his embrace.

Unable to take it anymore, Max strode forward and took Yelena’s hand before yelling, “Yelena, a woman like you is not supposed to make out with another man on the streets in broad daylight!”

A hint of surprise flashed across Yelena’s face when she realized it was Max, but she was puzzled as to why he seemed to be criticizing her. “What are you talking about? Do you mean the man beside me? He’s-”

When the man saw how anxious Max was, he realized something as he wrapped his arm around Yelena’s shoulders. “Are you Max? Yelena has mentioned you on several occasions. You’re pretty

famous in our university.”

“I know who you are; you’re an infamous thug.” Max had always been sharp-tongued, and he

was especially displeased when he saw the man’s arm around Yelena’s shoulders.

Yelena glared at him. “Who are you calling a thug?”

“What’s wrong? Are you unhappy because I called your lover a thug?” Max snorted. “You told me you liked me a few days ago and wanted to be my girlfriend, yet you’re making out with another man here. You’re pretty interesting.”

As he doubted Yelena’s sincerity, she was so anxious that she was on the brink of breaking into tears. Nonetheless, after pondering for a moment, she realized Max was rarely so agitated. Is it possible that he’s jealous after seeing me with another man? Does he like me?

Upon realizing the truth, she felt a sense of confidence rising within her. “Max, regardless of whom I’m seeing, what does it have anything to do with you?”

“Fine, then. Yelena, I don’t care whom you fall in love with, but do you know who he is? He’s an infamous scoundrel in our university. Are you sure you want to be with him?” Then, Max swept a dispassionate glance over them. “You’ve lost my respect.”

Yelena felt aggrieved. Just as she was ready to refute him, Max suddenly turned around and left as he wasn’t willing to hear what she had to say.

“Max!”
