Secret Admiration: Finding True Love After Prison

Chapter 753 Be Responsible for Me

Max’s question was really ambiguous.

“Why did you leave without saying goodbye to me in the morning?”

Anne felt a headache coming on. She could envision that, after this meeting, everyone would likely gossip about her with great enthusiasm.

She deliberately distanced herself from Max in front of everyone, implying that they were not familiar with each other.

Anne stayed reluctantly.

Learning that it was related to work, the crowd scattered.

Anne stood still.

The last one to leave was Max’s assistant.

He even “kindly” locked the door of the meeting room.

Suddenly, in the enclosed room, only Anne and Max remained.

She was on edge.

Perhaps their unexpected intimacy last night made them close at once, but she left without saying goodbye in the morning…

At that moment, she couldn’t help but feel guilty.
