Rebirth Into My Second Chance

Chapter 183

Seeing the bodyguard bring in the shirt, I immediately tensed up, my suspicion of Max making me wary of being alone with him. I put down the plate I was holding without a second thought. Although the bodyguard claimed the shirt was for Allen, his announcement before me made it clear they both knew it was from me to Allen.

A sense of foreboding washed over me, and Max grabbed my arm as I decided to leave. I tried to pull away but stumbled backward onto the couch. In my panic, I reached out for Max, and as we fell onto it, he cushioned my head with his hand to prevent me from hitting the wooden frame. "Where do you think you're going?" His voice whispered in my ear, sending shivers down my spine.

I tried to sound calm. "I'm not going anywhere, okay?"

"You've been avoiding me for a month," Max said, his voice laced with a plea for understanding, his breath warm against my ear.

"I'm not avoiding you. It's just that we're done," I replied, making it clear I wanted to draw a line between us.

"But don't you feel responsible for me?" Max seemed to be changing his tactics.

"What responsibility do I have toward you?" I scoffed at the absurdity.

But as I sneered, he leaned in, his lips pressing against mine softly. "Or should I be the one responsible for you?"
