Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 239

“Aha! Let’s see how you’re going to refute me!”

Yelena felt that it was fun seeing Max getting exasperated. It was her first time gaining the upper hand in their relationship, so there was no denying she was exalted.

“You’re unreasonable!”

Max was so furious that he almost blacked out. It never crossed his mind that this young woman, who had always been obedient, could be so rebellious.

He suddenly thought of something and squinted. “I’m disciplining you on your brother’s behalf. If you don’t behave yourself, I’ll inform him.”

Yelena clicked her tongue. “Hex? Do you think he can discipline me?” She appeared scornful. Why does he keep coming up with excuses instead of telling me what’s on his mind?

“He said he’d tell your mom.”

The next moment, the smug smile on Yelena’s face froze. “Forget it. Just pretend that I said nothing.”

Then, she snuck behind Max, looking crestfallen.

Seeing that, Elspeth pressed her palm against her forehead helplessly. This was the best chance at forcing Max to confess his love for Yelena, but the woman easily yielded to his threat.

Meanwhile, Eric didn’t read too much into it as he extended his hand to shake hands with Max. “Hello, nice to meet you.”

Although Max looked at him coldly, he still reached out to take the other man’s hand forcefully. “Well, I’m not too happy to see you.”

“Ouch!” Eric couldn’t help but yelp as he felt pain in his hand.

He turned to Elspeth, looking dumbfounded. “Your friend is full of strength.”

“Haha…” Elspeth let out a dry laugh. “He’s like that. Don’t read too much into it.”

“Alright.” Eric nodded. “Let’s go in now.”
