Chapter 87 - Have You Seen Enough?

Chapter 87: Chapter 85 Have You Seen Enough? Maya listened to the man’s question, her big eyes staring directly at him. He was tempting her, testing whether she really had no connection with Elijah.

She looked into his eyes and calmly said, "Regarding work matters, I won’t comment. You decide as you see fit."

Maya’s mind was quick; she knew that at this moment, it was best not to express any opinion, so she deflected directly.

The man looked at Maya’s calmness and bit her lip teasingly, saying, "Maya has gotten clever."

"Elijah, it’s late. I need to leave now, or I’ll be suspected. Where are my clothes?" Maya asked, resting her hands on the man’s shoulders, blinking her big eyes.

The man saw her being obedient today and didn’t trouble her. He took out new clothes from the drawer and handed them to her.

Maya changed her clothes, left silently, and Liam wanted to escort her, but she refused coquettishly, saying she didn’t want to be back in the tabloids. Seeing her act playfully, the man didn’t trouble her and let her go.

Maya dragged her exhausted body back to Spencer Clan Group, and when she pushed open her office door, she found Henry sitting in her seat waiting for her.

Immediately, Maya’s expression became even heavier!

Her mood had been terrible today; she didn’t want to see Henry and didn’t want her mood to be ruined by him again.

Seeing Maya return, Henry quickly stood up, grabbed her small hand, and asked, "Maya, where did you go? Did you have lunch?"

"I ate!" she replied coldly.

In fact, she hadn’t eaten lunch at all, and when leaving the Owen Clan, the snacks and milk Liam had given her were thrown into the trash.

Thinking of that man’s face disgusted her; how could she eat what he had given her?

Regarding Liam’s calm demeanor afterward, Maya was filled with rage inside. She didn’t believe she couldn’t take him down; one day, he’ll end up in her hands, and she’ll make him suffer terribly.

But for now, she had to handle Henry, to stop him from pestering her.

Henry noticed Maya’s indifference, which disappointed him a little. He had been traveling for work these days, and he thought after not seeing her for some days she’d be more enthusiastic when meeting him again; it seemed he had overthought.

Even though he was always frustrated in front of Maya, he never considered retreating, never thought about giving up.

Seeing Maya flung away his big hand, he took a deep breath, raised his hands, gently touched her small face, and asked with concern, "Maya, is work very tiring? Your little face is pale, without a hint of color."

The man’s teasing manner towards Maya disgusted her; she didn’t understand why Liam was like this, and Henry too. Could they not respect her wishes? Why did they have to touch her?

Although she wanted to tell Henry she was worn out by the man’s actions, it was too difficult to say, so she pushed his hand away and said coldly, "Not tired!"

As she walked towards the desk, Henry suddenly grabbed her wrist, pulling her into his arms, hugging her tightly. He leaned down, resting against her small face, saying intimately, "Maya, I missed you so much!"

"Henry, restrain yourself, there’s nothing between us." Maya pushed Henry away, clarifying their relationship.

Feeling the girl’s resistance, Henry held her tighter and ignored her protests.

Facing Henry’s stubbornness, Maya was furious. Rumors with Elijah emerged in the morning, soft from Liam’s actions at noon, and what was Henry up to now?

So she pushed him away fiercely and shouted angrily, "Can’t you restrain yourself a bit? Don’t you know I don’t like you? Does this amuse you?"

Maya rarely lost her temper; though she didn’t like Henry, she rarely treated him harshly. This was the first time she had acted this way towards him.

For a moment, Henry was stunned by her shout, subconsciously feeling that something had happened to Maya and that her mood was very foul.

He looked at the furious Maya, grabbed her arm, and asked, "Maya, did someone bully you?"

As she listened to his questioning, Maya raised her arm to shake his hand off.

Henry, being a man, could see and didn’t need to think much to understand what had happened to Maya.

This made his face even darker; grabbing her arm again, he threw her in front of him, holding her arms in anger.

"Maya, what is this, who did it,

Maya looked at the man’s aggressive manner, raised her head, and stared into his eyes, asking calmly, "Had enough?"

"Maya, I’m asking you a question, answer me."

At this moment, Henry was about to break down; why was he unaware of anything, was it Elijah or Ethan?

It must be Elijah, definitely that man, because Ethan had returned home for vacation a long time ago.

He looked at the marks on Maya’s chest, his heart painfully twisting, so agonizing that breathing was difficult, and even his palms were trembling with pain.

He eagerly yearned for an answer from her, hoping to hear her say nothing had happened, that the man hadn’t done anything to her in the end.

Seeing her lifeless eyes, he shook her arms, continuing to question.

"Maya, speak up, answer me, what is the matter with these kiss marks?"

Looking at the aggressive Henry, Maya knew if she didn’t let him give up today, he wouldn’t relent; it was a good chance to hurt his feelings completely, making him no longer have any attachment to her because she couldn’t promise him anything.

So she raised her head, looked into his eyes, and earnestly said, "Henry, I am already 19, an adult. It’s not surprising for me to date or rent a room, right? Do you have to make such a fuss?" Sёarᴄh the Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Maya, you’re lying, what is really going on with these marks?"

The more Maya brushed over the matter, the less Henry believed her, the more he doubted her words.

In fact, it’s because he didn’t want to believe; he didn’t want to believe Maya liked others or that she’d go room with a man. She was so pure and clean; there must be a reason behind all this.

Looking at the man’s furious expression, Maya took a deep breath and calmly explained to him, "Henry, everything I’ve said is true. Don’t you believe your own eyes? I’m a person of flesh and blood. I have emotions and desires. It’s you who idealize me too much. Stop deceiving yourself. I’m as Elia described: I just don’t like you, otherwise, you’d see another side of me."

After saying these, Maya felt relieved; she thought Henry should have given up now, and wouldn’t trouble her anymore, right?
