“Stay here tonight, I’ll take you out to sea for fishing tomorrow.”
Briana frowned, she had no interest in fishing, and she planned to catch up on sleep over the weekend.
“Over the weekend, I just wanted to stay at home and didn’t want to go out.”
“Alright, then I had the servants prepare a barbecue, and we just relaxed in the villa, watching a movie.”
Briana vaguely sensed that Maxim intended to ask her out, and alarm bells immediately rang in her heart. She turned to Maxim and said, “Mr. Yoder, I want to go home.”
“This was your home.”
“This was your home, not mine.”
“If you wanted, I could have transferred it to you right then.”

After a few seconds of silence, Briana was somewhat helpless, “Mr. Yoder, I don’t think you need to play dumb, you should understand what I mean.”
Maxim stared at her, “Compared to Mr. Yoder, I prefer how you address me in bed.”
Briana felt like she simply couldn’t get through to him. Every time she tried to have a serious conversation about their issues, Maxim would

always change the subject.
Seeing that she was no longer speaking, Maxim walked up to her and took her hand.
“I heard from Melody that you’ve been working hard recently, so I thought I’d take you out to relax this weekend.”
“Tomorrow night, the bioluminescent jellyfish migration will pass through this sea. If you really don’t want to stay here, I’ll take you home after watching the jellyfish tomorrow night.”
Looking into his ink–black eyes, Briana noticed her heartbeat quickening.
She quickly withdrew her hand, lowering her gaze and said, “I hope you keep your word.”
“Alright, I’ll go handle some work first, you can look around by yourself.”
Having had a nap in the car, Briana was now quite energetic and decided to find a movie to watch while snuggling on the sofa.
When Maxim returned after finishing his work, he saw Briana shivering and huddled in the corner of the sofa. On the screen, a female ghost was climbing out of a well…
Just as Briana was about to scream in fright at the scene, a hand reached out from behind and covered her eyes.
“Ah!”
Briana thought it was a ghost, subconsciously grabbed the other’s hand, and threw him over her shoulder onto the ground.
The next second, upon realizing that the person on the ground was

Maxim, a hint of embarrassment flashed across Briana’s face.
Maxim’s face looked terrible, he gritted his teeth and said, “Aren’t you going to help me up!”
After helping him sit down on the sofa, Briana said somewhat dissatisfied. “Why don’t you say anything?”
“Scared of ghosts but still watching horror movies?”
Briana: ……!

“What do you know? This is called secking excitement. Besides, if your hand hadn’t suddenly appeared, I wouldn’t have been scared!”NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
Maxim chuckled, mercilessly exposing her, “I wonder who was just scared and cowering in the corner of the sofa.”
“Who said I…”
Before she could even utter the word ‘fear‘, Briana caught a glimpse of the ghostly face rushing towards the camera from the corner of her eve She screamed and immediately threw herself into Maxim’s arms.
Maxim gripped her waist, chuckling softly, “Hmm? Didn’t you say you weren’t scared?”
Briana quickly grabbed the remote next to her and turned off the movie, then casually got up and sat down on the side, saying, “This was an accident.”
“Um, unexpected.”
Seeing his suppressed laughter, it was known that he was mocking himself internally at that moment.
Briana glared at him, “I’m done talking to you, I’m going upstairs to

sleep!”
As she passed by Maxim, she was suddenly pulled into his arms. His cold, thin lips pressed against hers the next second.
Briana hesitated for a moment, then hooked her arm around his neck and kissed him back.
The kiss ended, both of them were somewhat breathless. Maxim picked her up and headed straight for the bedroom…
When I woke up again, it was already approaching noon.
She picked up her phone and saw a message from Melody on Line, her expression changing.
After quickly replying to a few messages from Melody, Briana changed into the clothes she had prepared in her wardrobe. After freshening up, she went downstairs.
Maxim was sitting in the yard, reading documents, with the ingredients and barbecue grill prepared by the servant next to him.
Seeing Briana, he smiled and put down the file in his hand
“Awake? We had a barbecue at noon.
Briana’s expression was indifferent, “No, I’m going back right now.”
Maxim frowned, “At least after lunch.”
“No need, it was already late after lunch!”
“What did that mean?”
Briana sneered, “Does Mr. Yoder really need to play dumb? Didn’t you deliberately bring me here just to let Kiley take away all the vendors I
