Chapter 400 Entangled in Self–Made Cocoon

Maggie was stunned for a few seconds, then glanced down at the book in her hands, only to realise that all the words were upside down.

No wonder… I couldn’t understand anything after reading it for ages!

Arush of crimson flushed Maggie’s checks in an instant, her white delicate cars were also stained with red haze.

Despite her efforts to maintain a composed façade, she calmly turned the book around, murmuring, “I prefer to read it this way.”

Nathael didn’t say anything.

Maggie lowered her head, staring at the inverted words in the book, wishing she could just disappear into the ground.

This is very embarrassing!

She knew she wasn’t reading anything, but she hadn’t expected to be utterly clueless.

If only she could spare even a fraction of her attention to the book, the outcome wouldn’t have been so humiliating.

It was truly so embarrassing!

Seeing her entire face hidden behind the book, Nathael remained silent for a moment before saying softly. As long as you’re happy.”

Maggie was upset.

I’m not happy!

I am not happy!!!

For no apparent reason, Maggie detected a hint of mockery in his words, making her already flushed face. burn even hotter.

Maggie decided to give up reading altogether once Nathael went to bed. She closed the book and tossed it onto the bedside table, then curled up under the blanket, turning her back completely to Nathael.

Nathael, who had just put the blanket on his body, saw the entire blanket was being yanked away by her, leaving him completely exposed.

Nathael was utterly speechless.

Maggie cocooned herself into a fuzzy ball, burying her head almost entirely.

Maggie felt a mixture of embarrassment from the earlier incident and fear that Nathael might start another round to torture her.

Even if he seemed to be in a good mood today, this man was moody; she couldn’t gamble on his conscience.
