Chapter 97
Briana rolled her eyes and said, “So if you don’t come back all night, am I supposed to stay up all night just waiting for you?”
“I couldn’t.”
“What?”
“I wouldn’t stay out all night.”
Briana didn’t pay attention to his words, which sounded like a promise. She yawned and said, “I understand, can I go back to sleep now?”
Seeing her about to lie back down to sleep, Maxim couldn’t bear it any longer and said, “Briana!“.
“What do you want to do again?!”
Seeing the impatience in her eyes, Maxim gritted his teeth and said, “I drank tonight, so help me with my bedtime routine.”
Briana took a deep breath and reluctantly suppressed the urge to throw him out, then got up and pushed him towards the bathroom.
She squeezed the toothpaste and handed it to Maxim, yawning and saying, “Here you go!”
Maxim brushed his teeth and Briana grabbed a towel to wash his face haphazardly, applying a lot of force as if she wanted to scrub off a layer of his skin.
Maxim frowned and said coldly, “Can you please be more gentle?”

it.”
After finishing her morning routine, Briana quickly moved Maxim onto the bed and covered him with a blanket before turning off the lights.
After Briana lay down, Maxim suddenly spoke, “Briana, I was wrong about what happened last time. I shouldn’t have doubted you.”
He originally wanted to find someone to investigate the man who had dinner with her, but in the end, he held back. He was afraid that if Briana found out, they would have an even more intense argument.
Briana remained silent for a while and whispered, “Go to sleep.”
The next morning when Briana woke up, Maxim had already left the bedroom.
She finished washing up and walked out of the bedroom, only to see Maxim sitting in the living room, making a phone call.
He wore a gray sweater and a pair of black trousers today, lacking a bit of coldness.
After Briana glanced for a few seconds, she looked away and turned into the kitchen.
When Maxim came out after preparing breakfast, he had also made a phone call.
“Oliver wanted to invite you for lunch to apologize. Do you want to
go?”
