Chapter 568 Wrong Focus
Laura froze slightly, subconsciously looked at Nicole, and asked, "What's going on outside?"
Nicole was also confused, "I don't know."
But she immediately said, "Laura, stay here. I'm gonna have a look."
After saying that, she quickly went out.
Nicole returned ten minutes later.
As soon as she entered, she carefully closed the door with a weird look on her face.
Laura was confused, "What's going on outside?"
Nicole walked up to her, bent over slightly, and whispered, "Guess who I just saw outside?"
Laura knew it must be someone she knew and asked curiously, "Who was it?"
"Mr. Nixon."
What?
Laura froze and forgot to drink the cup of tea she was holding. Her mind went blank for a moment.
Just then, the door was suddenly kicked open.
They both shuddered.
They looked up and saw Max standing there with a grim look on his face.
Behind him was Lily, who looked sad with her puffy eyes in tears.
It was obvious that Lily had just pestered Max.
Seeing Lily, Laura was a little embarrassed. She forced a smile as a greeting and then turned her head
awkwardly.
What the hell!
What did he want?
He knew Lily gave her money and she promised to stay out of Lily's way, but he took Lily straight to her.
He wanted Lily to hate her, didn't he?
Laura was speechless but she didn't dare to say anything.
Lily turned pale as soon as she saw Laura in the room.
"Why... why are you..."
Laura had no choice but to wave at her with a smile.
"Miss Thomson, Mr. Nixon, what a coincidence. You're here for lunch too?"
She deliberately distanced herself from Max.
However, how could Max agree?
He was really annoyed with Lily, who kept pestering him.
She even pretended to meet him by chance. He was not a fool. How could he not see through her?
How ridiculous!
Just now, he saw Nicole peeking at them outside. He instantly realized that Laura was also eating here.
So he ran over without hesitation.
Lily gritted her teeth. Before she could say anything, she saw Max walk in and sit down in the chair next
to Laura.
"Didn't we agree to eat together? Why didn't you let me know when you arrived?"
Laura was confused.
She didn't know anything!
However, it was too late to explain. Lily was furious.
Ignoring Max's cold look, Lily rushed in, pointed at Laura, and screamed, "Max, why are you still with
her? Do you know what kind of woman she is?"
Laura bowed her head in silence.
She wanted Lily to denigrate her!
She wanted Lily to say she only loved money and was cheeky. She wanted Max to feel sick and leave
her!
Please! She desperately wanted it to happen.
However, Max just glanced at her and asked, "Does it have anything to do with you?"
Lily was speechless.
She was too angry.
"I don't care, but I don't want you to be fooled by her. You know what? I gave her a large sum of money
and asked her to leave you and she agreed!"
"She agreed to leave you for 20 million dollars. How can you still be with her?"
Max narrowed his eyes and looked at Laura.
Laura looked innocent.
He knew she had returned all the money to him.
Max smiled and suddenly reached out to stroke her hair.
"Silly girl. Why didn't you tell me you were short of money? Is it more comfortable to spend someone
else's money than mine? Here's my card. Take it and swipe it as you like."
He literally pulled out a black card and shoved it into her hand.
Laura was shocked.
What was going on?
She admitted that she was an actress.
But could a supporting actress get such a high paycheck nowadays? Were her eyes deceiving her?
Laura was no longer the short-sighted little girl. She recognized the card that Max gave her.
It was a worldwide limited edition, unlimited black card. It contained a large amount of money and was
a symbol of status.
Looking at Max's smile, she hesitated and didn't dare to take it.
"Well... You don't have to do that. I'm not short of money right now..."
"Take it!"
Max's tone suddenly became sharp and he shoved the card directly into her hand.
Laura couldn't resist. She couldn't say no to Max in front of Lily or he would be embarrassed, so she
could only take his card.
Max stroked her head again in satisfaction, "Good girl."
Lily, who had been neglected and changed from the main character to a bystander, was completely
confused.
She didn't know what was going on.
What was wrong with them? She was very angry and came to pick a fight. Could they at least show her Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
some respect?
Besides, why did things turn out this way?
Shouldn't Max be furious? Shouldn't they misunderstand each other and break up?
She had been planning this for so long. Why didn't they do what she wanted them to do?
Besides, Max's focus was wrong, wasn't it?
Laura took her money, but Max only noticed that she was poor and ignored that she betrayed him for
money.
What was wrong with them?
Lily was devastated!
Totally devastated.
She never thought she would be so frustrated.
She had been carefully prepared and planned.
She seized the opportunity and implemented her plan, but her enemies didn't care about her at all.
She was nothing to them!
Lily was so angry that she almost fainted. Her agent, Selina, rushed in and realized that the
atmosphere in the room was weird. She hurriedly held Lily up so that she didn't pass out.
