Spoiled By The CEO: Why The Wife Is Kinda Sweet? novel Chapter 624

Lily was utterly stunned.

Her face was pale.

She couldn't believe what he had just said.

He referred to her as his wife.

"Are you...?"

She pointed her finger at them in disbelief.

She saw Max holding Laura's hand. He raised his hand and showed their clasping fingers.

He smiled and said, "We're married. Will you give up now?"

Lily's body trembled, and she almost fell down the next second!

Fortunately, her girlfriends reacted in time and held her so that she didn't embarrass herself.

Lily was so upset that her face flushed. Her eyes turned red, and tears rolled down her cheeks.

"You're married? I don't believe it. That's not true!"

Max replied expressionlessly, "We don't care if you believe it or not. We're not obligated to explain anything to you. We told you because we want you to stay away from us. We're all decent people; I hope you can control yourself and leave us alone."

After that, he ignored her and left, holding Laura's hand.

His cold words were like a knife stabbing into Lily's heart.

She turned her head and looked at them, and then she clenched her fists tightly.

Laura and Max.

They hurt her deeply.

This was not over!

...

After Max and Laura left, they bought rings in another shop.

Their rings were of simple style, and Max didn't like them that much because he thought they were way too plain, but Laura loved them.

She crossed her arms and said with a lovely tone, "I'm not going to wear it all the time. It's useless to buy those expensive ones. We should choose one that I can wear on normal days, and I'll wear it on other fingers so that people won’t notice, right?"

Max sighed helplessly upon hearing that.

He tapped Laura's nose and said, "OK, whatever you’re saying!"

Laura smiled. They stayed in the mall till six in the afternoon when they were both hungry. Then they remembered that they had a plan for dinner with Archie.

So they all agreed to show up at Peaceful Hut at 6.30.

Laura recalled what Lily had just done in the mall on their way to the restaurant.

She was a bit worried.

She shook Max's hand and asked, "Will she leave us alone?"

Max rubbed his forehead in annoyance.

"That's not up to us, but you shouldn’t worry about it. I'll protect you and never let her hurt you."

However, Laura snorted and ditched his hand away.

"I don't need you to protect me! I can protect myself. That will be safer."

Max frowned when he heard that.

He felt that something was wrong.

He turned over and looked at Laura, then he asked, "What's that supposed to mean?"

Laura raised her eyebrows. Her tone sounded playful.
