Chapter 192 192: So they do have a family

[Priscilla and Max Place]

After a passionate encounter, Priscilla fell asleep, while Max remained awake. He couldn't get his thoughts straight because he had recently imagined Ella in Priscilla's place while meeting his wants.

He expected to get over her eventually, but her smiling face refused to leave his thoughts.

He had become a stalker, following her everywhere, and whenever he saw how pleased she appeared, his heart burned with jealousy.

Max would remember how happy and pleased he was with Ella before Priscilla entered the scene. He was so sexually dissatisfied that when she lured him, he readily succumbed to his need, only to realize how dumb he was when the love he expected from her never arrived.

Yes, she met his wants in bed, but she never once spoke to him compassionately.

Ella may have been reticent, but she knew how to make him feel appreciated and cherished, and he missed having those timely conversations that made him proud of himself.

Max sighed deeply and looked at Priscilla before getting out of bed and heading to the bathroom. When he returned and was going to lie down, he noticed Priscilla's phone flickering.

Because it was silent, it did not wake her up, but seeing messages flash up on her phone peaked his interest.

His brow wrinkled, and he was about to verify who it was, but to his dismay, she had her phone locked.

Max despised the fact that he couldn't see who was texting Priscilla late at night, but he resolved to question her the next day to settle his worries.

Placing the phone back in its place, Max lay down next to her and closed his eyes, but his mind was filled with Ella's thoughts, which finally turned into a wonderful dream that helped him go to sleep.

The next morning, everyone gathered around the breakfast table, with Stefan preoccupied with his phone.

"Marcus, my son has become so busy that he doesn't even realize his mother is sitting next to him and that he has to greet her morning yet." Nancy stated her displeasure in a phony, sorrowful tone, which caused Stefan to turn his head to the side in surprise.

"Good morning, and I hope you realize we are here too," Nancy said, waving at him.

Stefan mustered a grin and hastily set his phone on the table before reaching out to hug his mother.

"Good morning, Mom," he murmured, pecking her cheeks affectionately, to which she scowled.
