Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 400 Have Fun With a New Man

Yelena’s words were truly moving, but Elspeth knew there was surely a misunderstanding. “Don’t be so impulsive, Yelena. Things are not what they seem to be. I…”

Suddenly, Yelena shook her head, and a bitter smile played on her lips. “No, I’m not being impulsive. I know a lot of things, but I haven’t exposed him yet.”

Hearing that, Elspeth furrowed her brows. Is there something else to this?

Yelena said straightforwardly, “Since all of you here are family, I won’t hide anything anymore. Max, I know you met up with a girl behind my back and even went to a hotel together with her. Do you think I’m that foolish not to know anything?”

“Yelena, I…” Max’s gloominess disappeared in an instant, and he didn’t know how to explain.

The moment Elspeth saw him stutter while trying to explain, her heart sank. “Is it true, Max?” She knew him well and believed Max wouldn’t do something so disgraceful, but seeing the way he looked, it seemed like it was true.

At this moment, Max noticed the suspicious gazes around him, so he said anxiously, “It was just a junior of mine. We had a gathering the other day, and my classmates insisted that I send her home. I couldn’t get her address, so I had to take her to a hotel, but nothing happened between us.”

Hearing that, Yelena forced a smile. “Do you know why I am aware of this?” As she spoke, she took out her phone and showed everyone several shocking, explicit photos. The pictures of the two were taken in a hotel bed with their skin faintly visible, emitting an extremely amorous atmosphere.

When Arthur saw that, he couldn’t help but laugh. “This is what happens when the elder doesn’t set a good example. It seems like Max knows how to play too.” Obviously, he was referring to Callum. No one else but Arthur had the mood to mock others during a moment like this.

Max didn’t expect Yelena to have such photos, and his face turned extremely pale. “There’s nothing between me and her, though.”

They had a gathering three days ago, and everyone got drunk. He took her to a hotel after the reunion, but he didn’t remember what happened after that. Max probably passed out because of the alcohol, and when he woke up the next morning, there was a note on the bed that read, ‘Thank you, Max.’ He was sure that nothing happened between them, but he didn’t know why he had suddenly passed out.
