Mona's upset look did not make Maxwell angry. Instead, he found Mona even more adorable. He wished he could hold Mona in his arms and caress her.

'However, it will surely mess up Mona's hair bun. Then Mona will probably be mad again, thought Maxwell.

So Maxwell suppressed the thoughts. His thumb and index finger gently rubbed against the lipstick on Mona's lips.

"Don't be angry anymore. It's clean. Just reapply the lipstick," Maxwell said. He wanted to reach out and touch Mona's cheek, but he stopped when he thought about how dirty his hand was.

"Here's the lipstick. Apply it for me. You've eaten all my lipstick!" said Mona.

Maxwell happily took the lipstick from Mona's hand and placed it on the dressing table. After wiping the lipstick off his lips, he went to wash his hands seriously.

When he came out, he saw Mona was already seated. He picked up the lipstick he had just put on and opened it. He held Mona's face with one hand and slowly wiped the lipstick across Mona's lips, leaving a red mark.

It was Maxwell's first time personally applying lipstick to Mona. However, he had seen Mona do it many times, so he knew how to do it. After applying it, he asked Mona to purse her lips. Then, he applied the lipstick on where it was uneven. Upon seeing it was almost done, Maxwell nodded in satisfaction. "Mona, what do you think?"
