Alright, since Maxwell said so, Mona couldn't refute him. She silently unbuttoned her pajamas and slipped her arm in.

Before she could put it on, Maxwell's hand reached in. His palm was hot and a little rough. When he touched Mona, it brought about a moment of shiver.

Mona knew what Maxwell was like. She slapped his hand away and urged him to get up.

It seemed Maxwell had helped her clean up her mess again the night before. Thinking about how she had cursed him in her heart this morning, she felt guilty.

Mona, are you getting this watch for Maxwell? You're so good to Maxwell. You're in such a hurry to pay. Are you afraid that I'll snatch it from you?" Gordon said as his gaze landed on Mona.
