He didn’t notice that the moment he spoke, Maxim seemed to be covered in frost, his face extremely
pale.
Aurora knew Briana Cameron, they had met at a party before. However, for some reason, Briana
Cameron suddenly disappeared from everyone’s sight for several years. Rumor had it that she fell ill
and went abroad for treatment.
However, seeing that Briana Cameron, with just light makeup, was much more beautiful than herself, a
hint of hostility unconsciously shed in her eyes.
She curled her lips into a smile, “Hello, Ms. Cameron.”
Briana Cameron’s expression was indifferent, “Hello, Ms. Fredrick.”

Elliot looked at Maxim, about to speak, but Maxim simply turned and walked away.
Seeing Elliot’s face turn somewhat unpleasant, Aurora spoke up to exin for Maxim, “Mr. Murphy,
Maxim is just like this, don’t mind him.”
Surprise shed in Elliot’s eyes upon hearing Aurora’s address to Maxim
“Ms. Fredrick, were you familiar with Mr. Yoder?”
Aurora chuckled, “It’s okay, I’m currently pursuing him, but I haven’t caught him yet.”
Briana Cameron, standing nearby, lowered her gaze, seemingly lost in thought.
Elliot raised an eyebrow, half–jokingly, half–seriously said, “Chasing a man like Mr. Yoder must be
tough, right?”
Aurora nodded, “Indeed, but he was worth it.”
“Here’s to wishing Ms. Fredrick sess then.”
“Thank you, I’ll go find him first, we’ll chat next time.”
After Aurora left, Elliot turned to look at Briana Cameron. Seeing her pale face. he quickly asked, “Ms.
Cameron, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”
“I was fine, just wanted to go to the restroom.”
She turned and left, oblivious to the meaningful gaze Elliot was casting at her.
Having washed her face in the bathroom, Briana Cameron finally calmed down and turned to leave the
bathroom.
The banquet hall was a considerable distance from the restroom, surrounded by some smaller private
rooms, specifically provided for small–scale banquets
When Briana Cameron reached the corner, the booths next to her were suddenly opened.
Before she could react, arge hand had gripped her wrist, pulling her into the darkness.
The room door mmed shut behind her, Briana Cameron’s chin was mped, apanied by a
familiar scent, a fierce kiss descended.
Briana Cameron subconsciously turned her head, and Maxim’s lips
His lips were cold, like a piece of ice that couldn’t be melted, making her shiver involuntarily.
In the darkness, the breathing of the two people was clearly audible.
Briana Cameron reached out and pressed against his chest, coldly saying, “Maxim, let me go.”
“Why did youe to the party with Elliot?!”
His voice was filled with usation, and Briana Cameron couldn’t help but retort sarcastically, “Don’t
you also have a beauty by your side? I haven’t even asked you to exin why you’re so close with
Aurora, what right do you have to question me?”
Maxim chuckled softly, “Jealous?”
“Why should I be jealous? You have beauties around you, and it’s not like I don’t have… um…”
Briana Cameron didn’t finish her sentence, because Maxim kissed her lips, silencing her next words.
“Let… let go…”
Briana Cameron wanted to struggle, but behind her was the cold door of the room, and in front of her
was Maxim, who was as immovable as a copper wall and an iron barrier no matter how much she
pushed. She could only be trapped between them, at his mercy.
After the kiss ended, Briana Cameron’s legs were somewhat weak. If it weren’t for Maxim holding her
waist, she might have fallen straight to the ground.
“You really are heartless, do you know how much I missed you these past two days?!”
Upon hearing this, Briana Cameron’s heart softened for a moment. However, the image of Aurora
affectionately calling him Maxim immediately came to mind, causing her heart to involuntarily turn cold
again.
“Miss me? You were probably too busy cozying up with Ms. Fredrick. If I hadn’te today, you
probably wouldn’t even remember who I am, would you?”
