Chapter 216

Brielle’s eyebrow arch was nonchalant, untouched by the turmoil around her.

Spencer felt as if his pride was being trampled underfoot, the gods themselves seemed to conspire with Brielle. Why, at this crucial moment, did she have to be in the elevator?

His eyes narrowed as he pondered. Had Brielle been at the soiree last night? And she had come down from the fourth floor. Wasn’t Max the only one living on the fourth floor?

This suspicion was fleeting, as the surrounding chatter became unbearable, and Spencer beat a hasty retreat.

Max’s eyelashes fluttered, and he hummed an affirmative.

Brielle smirked. Seeing that the people outside had no intention of coming in, she closed the elevator.

As soon as it shut, she kept her distance from Max. After all, having just woken up and been dragged out for an passionate lovemaking, she was wary of his stamina.
