Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 86

At that moment, Yelena was red in the face. She would be lying if she said she wasn’t embarrassed when her thoughts were exposed.

On the other hand, Hex had already forgotten his flirtatious attempts toward Elspeth and got familiar with her after talking for some time. “Alright, now, let’s go back. What about you, Elspeth? Do you want to join us?”

“No, thanks. You guys have fun,” said Elspeth.

Hearing her words, Hex pouted and walked away.

On the other hand, Yelena patted Elspeth on the shoulder while looking at her calm expression. “I know you must feel terrible after you went through such a thing. Don’t worry, Elspeth. The truth will soon be revealed, and you will be proven innocent.”

“I know.”

“Well, since I have snuck out and don’t feel like sitting with them, why don’t you accompany me? We can have some small talk over there.” After Yelena finished speaking, she looked at Elspeth expectantly.

Just as Elspeth was going to refuse her proposal, her phone suddenly rang. It was Harper, and he told Elspeth that he couldn’t come over since the company had some urgent business.

“Come on. Hang with me. Your friend can’t make it anyway.” Yelena immediately grabbed Elspeth and found a place to sit. Then, she propped her head with her hands as she looked at Max, who was in the dark, with adoration.

“Why do you like him, Yelena?” asked Elspeth. She had always wondered how someone as proud as Yelena would fall in love with Max, who was bad-tempered. She remembered the first time she had met Max and talking to him was a disaster.

“Oh, me?” Yelena recalled the memory from her past. “To be honest, my first encounter with Max wasn’t when he saved me. I have known him for a long time before that.”
