Then Albert thought that Maxwell must not have had time to play games at home, so he suggested, "Maxwell, why don

He didn't want Maxwell to underperform just because he hadn't played recently.

Maxwell took out his phone and shook his head. He didn't need to warm up. He usually had a good feel for the game. After his match with Albert that day, Maxwell had downloaded the game on his phone, thinking he might have some time to play a few rounds with Mona, but she had been busy these past few days, so he hadn't opened the app at all.

Maxwell figured he could only play with Albert now. In truth, after every match with Albert, Maxwell felt a swell of pride secing Mona's proud gaze directed at him.

After seeing Maxwell shake his head, Albert opened his own phone and initiated a match against Maxwell. Mona sat beside Maxwell, watching his long fingers move deftly over the screen. Even though it was just a simple action, it made her heart flutter. Maxwell was perfect in every way; even his hands were her ideal type.

After Albert's crushing defeat last time, Mona no longer worried about Maxwell. She believed he would definitely win.

Sure enough, the first game ended in Albert's loss. Albert looked across at Maxwell, whose expression remained calm, devoid of any joy at winning. Albert couldn't help but think that this was probably the level of the top team, wondering if they were even better than Maxwell.

"Want to play again? You've definitely improved," Maxwell said honestly.

Even if you're beating me, I'm still happy." Albert replied excitedly, starting
