In the car, Max displayed his gentlemanly charm, allowing the two women to sit in the back while he took the wheel.

Meryl couldn't shake the feeling that something was brewing between Anne and Max.

Meryl subtly nudged Anne with her elbow and texted her: [He just called you princess. He's definitely into you.]

Anne glanced ahead, taking in the sight of

Max.

His hair was impeccably styled, and from her angle, she could see the strong bridge of his nose and the sharp line of his jaw.

wheel, the nails neatly trimmed and clean. His shirt was perfectly pressed, showing no signs of wrinkles.

"He must have a bit of a cleanliness

obsession," she thought.

Anne asked, breaking the silence, "Why are you at the hospital? Are you feeling okay?"

Max replied casually, "My assistant wasn't, adjusting well to the area, so I brought him in for a check-up. He's getting some fluids right now."

Anne raised an eyebrow. "Wait, you just left him there? Isn't that a bit rude?"

Max chuckled, "We're all adults here. She doesn't need me holding her hand while she's getting some IV fluids. But if it were an old classmate asking, I'd definitely stick around." Meryl smirked, knowing exactly who he was referring to.

The old classmate had to be about her and Anne. Max wouldn't be talking about her, a married woman who was pregnant.

She nestled into the back seat, suppressing a laugh. Suddenly, she felt a bit like a third wheel.

Fortunately, Max managed to get Meryl home before the evening rush hour hit.

As she stepped out of the car, a wave of

relief washed over her.

"I'm home now. You two go have fun."

Anne asked, "Are you sure you don't want to join us for dinner? Mr. Aniston's been busy lately, and you'll just be home alone. What will you eat?"

"I won't be alone. The staff will be there. Dinner should be ready by now," Meryl replied, thinking, "They're going out on a date. I shouldn't tag along." "Go on, have a good time," Meryl said with a smile, closing the car door and waving goodbye.

Anne watched Meryl enter the house before slowly turning her gaze back to Max.
