Secret Crush novel Chapter 15

To her surprise, Max didn't get angry. Leila felt nothing but suppressed. She was perturbed all the way. It wasn't until the car stopped that she realized she had to go to work. Then she said with hesitation, "I have to work..."

She didn't dare to speak loudly, but her weak voice still displeased the man by her side. He turned to look at her coldly and said indifferently, "It seems that you have a bad memory. I told you that your work is just to please me."

For the first time, Max repeated his words twice. Leila trembled. Although she was dissatisfied, she could not show any emotion on her face. She lowered her voice and said, "I see."

Getting out of the car following Max, Leila looked around and then frowned. There was nobody else here. Unknowingly, they are out of the city. It's summer now, but the cold wind around still made Leila shiver a little.

Max turned around, looked at her with an indifferent gaze, and then said indifferently, "Give me your hand."

Feeling extremely flattered, Leila looked at the hand he held out. She was so shocked that she kept watching for a long time. Then Max's face became more gloomy. ‘Did she have to force me to repeat a sentence twice?’

On the edge of Max's explosion, Leila stretched out her hand in time. He glanced coldly at her, but said nothing. She breathed a sigh of relief, and followed him step by step into an unknown path, which was almost not able to be regarded as a path.

It was really hard to call it as a road. It was surrounded by the weeds, which were about half height. People made this path by deliberately stepping on. Leila, who used to walk on the asphalt road, staggered in high heels. Due to Max was holding her hand, she didn't fall down to the ground and felt disgraced.

Leila looked into the distance and asked, "Where are we going?"

Clutching her hand, Max walked forward without answering her. Leila could only follow him step by step. But it felt like a blind man walking. She was so nervous that her heart beat faster.

After a long time, Max stopped. Leila gasped for air. Yet on seeing the room in front of her, she forgot to breathe.

This was an old room, strictly speaking, it could not be called a room. Because there was no roof, Leila swallowed spittle and didn't know what Max brought her here for.

"Go in."

Leila was shocked by the sudden voice and trembled all over. She frowned. Looking at the room in front of her, Leila thought it was like a haunted room in the movie. Although Leila knew she shouldn't ask such a question, she said uncontrollably, "Why should I go in first?"

With a gloomy face, Max looked at the little woman who was flinching back. ‘Was she so timid?’

He was right. Leila could do anything, but being brave was the most difficult thing for her. She wasn't afraid of all the difficulties, but she was extremely afraid of things that could not be explained by science.
