Female Novel
Chapter 889 Playing Hard to Get
Jude was really disappointed at her brother. She thought he already corrected his error and made a
fresh start, however, her brother didn’t change at all and acted even worse.
She completely gave up any expectation on her brother and knew he was beyond remedy.
Maximilian couldn’t figure out why Jude was unwilling to catch him and reminded, “You can control him
for a few days.”
Jude petted on her forehead when hearing this and blamed herself for not thinking of this method. She
immediately took action.
Her brother kept on struggling, however, it didn’t work at all and he was taken away by Jude’s
colleagues in the end.
Jude finally realized Maximilian helped her a lot and said to him with shame, “Sorry for involving you in.
It really costs you a great deal of money.”
“Never mind, just take this as my birthday present for auntie.” Maximilian smiled.
The middle-aged woman blushed when hearing his words and never expected he was so good at
making others happy.
Because the middle-aged man was in a good mood, he opened a bottle of good wine and shared it with
Maximilian. Soon, he became drunk and almost said impolite words to Maximilian.novelbin
Maximilian pretended to smile and felt speechless to his action. Maximilian was good at drinking.
However, the wine was in high degree and he had drunk a lot, making his cheek become a little
flushed.
The middle-aged woman suddenly stood up and said, “You can have dinner together. I have to take
him to the bedroom.”
Actually, she wanted to create an opportunity for her daughter, meanwhile, she continued to tease her
daughter and said, “Well, Mr. Lee. It’s late now. How about spending a night here?”
“Mom, but we don’t have spare room.” Jude couldn’t help complaining.
The middle-aged woman smiled and said, “He can sleep in your bedroom. It’s a normal thing between
friends.”
Jude couldn’t help showing the whites of her eyes to her mother. What kind of logic she had? She was
simply friends with Maximilian, instead of romantic friends. How could they sleep together?
Jude wanted to say more but was held up by her mother’s gaze. Her mother continued saying, “It’s late
at night. Don’t think too much. Our place is far from the hotel and you cannot drive. Well, you can’t let
the guest sleep on the sofa.”
Hearing this, Jude didn’t know how to rebut. Actually, she really had a mixed feeling towards
Maximilian. She was fond of him but was not sure how he felt about her.
Only Jude and Maximilian were left in the living room when the middle-aged man and woman got back
to their room. They were awkward and looked at each other. They didn’t know what to do next because
what happened now went beyond their imagination.
Jude tried to keep calm and said, “You can sleep in my room, but remind that you can’t do anything to
me.”
Maximilian replied with a smile, “Yes.”
Jude finally led him to her room. No man had come to her bedroom before except her father.
Jude was nervous and worried Maximilian would talk about her bedroom. When thinking about
Maximilian was drunk, she was also afraid that he couldn’t control himself and did something to her.
She got more and more nervous as she thought more and didn’t know what to do.
Maximilian looked around and didn’t judge her bedroom at all. He tried to be calm to avoid Jude from
knowing his thought.
Actually, he was surprised to see Jude’s room was in pink shade. He always thought she was a cool
girl and never expected she was also a little girl deep inside.
Maximilian asked, “Well, do you have any other quilt?”
It took him three times of asking until Jude finally reacted. She looked at Maximilian in astonishment
and never expected he would say such a thing. She came back to consciousness and pointed at the
wardrobe behind him.
Maximilian turned around and picked a plain quilt, saying with a smile, “Good night.”
Jude rolled her eyes and thought Maximilian couldn’t wait any longer to sleep with her. When she
thought he was going to put the quilt on her bed, she was shocked by his action next.
Maximilian carried the quilt out. Jude couldn’t believe what happened in front of her. What was going
on?
“Where are you going?” Jude couldn’t help asking.
Maximilian replied, “I am going to sleep on the sofa.”
He knew Jude didn’t trust him and the reason why she led him to her room was because of her
mother’s advice. He didn’t want to take advantage of others’ difficulties.
Hence, he really respected Jude’s idea. Jude became confused when hearing Maximilian’s words. She
never expected Maximilian would do such a thing and couldn’t believe it was real.
She then shook her head and thought Maximilian was trying to prod her into action. She remained
silent, waiting what would happen next. However, Maximilian left and was ready to sleep on the sofa
with quilt.
“Well, are you going to sleep here?” Jude asked.
She suddenly felt Maximilian was a real gentleman by respecting her. Unlike someone else, he was
only a wolf under sheep’s fur.
Maximilian replied calmly, “Yeah, that’s why I carried the quilt out.”
Jude didn’t know what to say when hearing his words. She was giving him an evident hint of inviting
her to sleep with her. How could he cannot figure it out, or was it because he simply wanted to refuse
her?
She became doubtful for her appearance. Was it because she was not beautiful and attractive enough?
She was confused and didn’t know how to answer. She could feel Maximilian was different from men
she had met before. She thought Maximilian was only a ladies’ man on that day. Now she finally
changed her mind. Maybe he was simply controlling him on that day.
“You’d better sleep in my bedroom, or my parents will think I am abusing you.” Jude gritted her teeth
and became flushed. How she wished she could finish the words quickly!
