Contrary to the surprised Jubelian, Max was irritated. He knew his master had interrupted them on purpose.

I was only able to calm down after Max left the room. He had literally sucked the soul out of me with his sweet-talking. I had taken countless deep breaths, but the tickling in my heart never subsided. I dove into bed and squealed inwardly,Im beautiful no matter what I wear?
