Secret Crush novel Chapter 245

"What's wrong?" asked Max, who came over and held Leila by the shoulder out of instinct.

"Nothing. I'm a little tired."

Leila tried to cover her anxiety quickly. She didn't expect that she would be so abnormal when she met Max. If she didn't go out today, she wouldn't hear Bertha's trick.

The man held Leila in his arms out of habit, and they leaned their heads against each other in comfortable posture. Smelling the familiar scent from the man, Leila felt more entangled in her heart.

Suddenly, she remembered what she bought for Max today, and she stuffed a delicate box in his hand. Surprised, he opened it slowly and saw a pair of tiny silver sleeves shining brightly. He nodded and said, "Good taste."

The next second, when the man tried to take up his sleeve, Leila stopped him. "Don't look at it now. You can do it when I'm not here."

Seeing that she was a little mysterious, Max raised the corners of her mouth. This woman now knew how to please him. Even though it cost him money to buy him gifts.

After dinner, Max went to the study to work. Feeling a little upset, Leila returned to her room. She felt better when sitting in the study and seeing this man, but when he was not around, she started to wonder.

What was the secret of Max? Whether it was because of Rosa or something else, or why did Bertha say that she knew the truth and would not stay by the side of Max, and all the truth would be discovered again.

"What are you thinking about? Why don't you go to bed? "

She didn't even know when Max had got to the bed, but the next moment when she felt some part of the man's body start to move. She turned over and looked at him. "I don't want to, I'm so tired today!"

Max didn't say a word. He kissed her face like rain and extended his kiss from the lips all the way to her collarbone. He kissed her deeply and soon Leila was lost in his kiss.

Looking at her sleeping face, Max's face had never been more solemn than ever. This little woman had something on her mind, and she was absent-minded since she came back. She didn't eat much at dinner. But since she didn't say it, he didn't want to force her.

Leila woke up early because she was not bothered by Max. When she saw that the man had dressed neatly, she sat up in bed, "Good morning."

"If you feel bored in the apartment, you can go to work with me!"

Leila shook her head out of instinct. Seeing that the man went downstairs in disappointment, she dialed the number of Bertha. After thinking for a whole night, she finally realized that she could not escape from his past as long as she still cared about Max.

After getting the phone call from Leila, Bertha made a gesture of okay to Spencer and asked, "Are you sure about it?"

Leila, holding the phone tightly, hummed. Whether she was in danger or not, she just didn't want herself to regret, and live in the shadow.

"OK. You come to the suburb now and don't tell anyone. If this is known by Max, all of us will die!"

"Suburb?"

Bertha told her again that in order not to be discovered by Max, she had to wait for Leila to arrive at the suburbs and tell Leila the next destination. Leila breathed out a sigh of relief. She felt things were mysterious, but she still did not want to regret.

After she cleaned up, she went downstairs and the maid, as always, prepared the breakfast. Needless to say, these were all ordered by Max. She gradually realized the man's kindness. During the meal, she told the maid, "I'll go out later."

The maid nodded and everything was the same as usual.

At ten o'clock, Leila went out on time. It was a sunny day. The sun was shining warmly. She got on the taxi with mixed feelings.

Along the way, Bertha didn't call her again. Looking at her phone, Leila thought there would not be any danger in such a place with so many people.

"Here, Miss. There is no way to go."

Leila nodded and got off the car. As expected, the road under her feet stopped here. On her left hand was weeds as tall as a man. She looked and didn't see Bertha. She immediately called her. No one answered the phone after a long time

At the same time, a few men who were tall and sturdy, were quietly approaching her. The stick in their hands was raised high, and Leila felt a heavy blow on her neck, and her body was about to fall. She squinted her eyes and saw the blue sky and white clouds. Then her eyelids became heavy and she passed out.

A off-road car stopped in the depths of the weeds came out. Everyone tied up Leila's hands and feet, covered her with eyes, and threw her into the car. Quickly, the place returned to peace, as if nothing had happened.

"Be careful. This woman is not an ordinary person. Remember what boss said."

The car went far, leaving the man's words behind.

Standing in the grass, Spencer smiled proudly. Last time, it was so easy for Max to find him, but this time, he wouldn't let Max find him so easily.

When Leila woke up, her eyes were covered with a black cloth, and she felt remorseful but guilty as she was calculated by Bertha in the end. After all, Max had said that Rosa was an old woman, and it was just a trade between him and Bertha!

In this case, Leila was fully aware of the fact that they used her curiosity about Max to rape her. But it was too late. She was afraid of darkness the most. Darkness lurked in her eyes. She winced in pain as she thought of that man.

He held her tightly in the dark. Where was he now? Did he already know that she was kidnapped!

In the CEO Office of the Mu Group.

Max finished dealing with the documents on the table as fast as he could, then he leaned against the back of the chair and closed his eyes for rest, while his fingers were unconsciously tapping on the table.

Now his mind was full of Leila's figures. The man opened his eyes slowly, and even he himself was shocked. When did Leila have been deeply imprinted in his mind.

Spencer knocked on the door gently. In the whole Mu Group, no one dared to do so except Matt and Spencer who could walk around in his office.

Hearing that, Max squinted at the man at the door in a dangerous manner. His face was filled with self-confidence and even a little bit complacent, which was the most annoying thing to Max. Spencer was too conceited!

"What is it?"

The man had intended to ignore hm. But since Spencer was already here, he couldn't lie about it. Judging from his calm tone, Spencer was not important to him at all!

If it weren't for Senior Mr. Mu's support, he might really have kicked his brother out of the Mu Group.

Spencer walked in and looked around the large CEO office. The most obvious place was the sitting position. The glass window on the whole wall exuded a kingly atmosphere. Spencer couldn't help but walk around the office.

Hearing that, Max squinted dangerously. Today's Spencer seemed to be different from usual. He would always give a mocking attitude to him, but today he kept silent, which was unusual. On the contrary, Spencer paid all his attention to his office, with greed and desire showing in his eyes.

"Wow, brother, your CEO office is so magnificent. When can I have a try?"

With these words, Spencer supported his two hands on the desk and looked down at Max. Spencer didn't try to avoid Max's gaze. Instead, Spencer looked a little aggressive.

Of course, Max knew what he meant. Spencer was too conceited to be only the second son of the Mu family. He wasn't satisfied with power or status. Instead, he aimed at the whole Mu family.

"I'm afraid that you can't take it!"

Hearing that, a faint smile played at the corners of Spencer's mouth. When his face got close to Max, the tip of their noses nearly touched each other. When their cold eyes met, Spencer finally wore a wanton smile at the corners of his mouth. "You are really good at joking. Is it because you are reluctant?"

With a slight smile at the corners of Max's mouth, Max suddenly stood up and grabbed Spencer's collar. "It's not up to you to decide what to do with the Mu family. But since you want to fight for it by yourself, perhaps I will consider giving up my position to you!"

The man patted the chair behind him, and Spencer's eyes grew dark, "since you are not willing to give up this position, I have to change my plan!"

Max was still grabbing Spencer's collar. "I warned you not to play tricks!"

Spencer smiled and pushed Max's hand away.

Staring at Spencer's back, Max had a bad feeling. He didn't seem to come here just to see something simple. His firm eyes and confident smile on his face seemed to be ordinary and casual, but all these added up made him have a bad feeling.

The situation had been peaceful in the past few days, which made him a little confused. The only thought in his mind was Leila. In order to make a mouth for Spencer and stop him from gossiping, he was not busy at all. Still sitting in his office, he picked up his mobile phone to call Leila, and the voice of power-off came through the other side of the phone. Inexplicably, Max became nervous. Subconsciously, Max went to Spencer's office.

The door was burst open with a bang, and Spencer was leisurely sitting with his legs crossed. He was not afraid when he saw Max entering with a dark face. Instead, everything was as he expected.

"Where is Leila?"

The man's voice was low and angry. Looking at the angry look on Spencer's face, he immediately raised his fist and said, "I'll ask you again. Where is Leila?"

Spencer stood up slowly with a smirk on his face. "Brother, I'm really sorry that I can't answer you this question. Leila is your woman. How could I know where she is?"

"You'd better not let me know what you have done, or I will not spare you!" said Max, beating Spencer in the face angrily.

Max slammed the door angrily and went back to the villa, looking for Leila without thinking.
