Zane’s face turned extremely pale in an instant, his lips trembling as he said. “Mr. Yoder, I know that what just
happened has made you very angry. How about this, I will personally bring my wife to the Yoder family to apologize
tomorrow. Please spare the Schneider family this time.”
There was no warmth in Maxim’s eyes, “If Mrs. Schneider really was careless, I could forgive her, but whether she
did it on purpose, you should be very clear.”
Knowing that pleading with Maxim would be useless, Zane turned his attention to Briana.
“Briana, your mom already realized her mistake, could you…”
Before she could finish her words, she was coldly rejected by Briana, “No, she has done many similar things in the
past. I can tolerate her favoritism because Kiley is her daughter whom she has raised since childhood, and her
affection for Kiley is deeper than mine. But today, she clearly intended to hurt me, I can’t utter the words ‘forgive‘ ”

As for Maxim, upon knowing that Kiley was waiting at the door, he said nothing and went straight back to his study
to work.
Around eight in the evening, it suddenly started raining outside.
Briana walked to the window and saw Kiley standing in the rain, soaked to the skin. She looked like a lotus flower
refusing to bow in the storm, evoking an extreme sense of endearment.
Didn’t know if Maxim would have the heart to see her after witnessing this scene.
Returning to the living room, Briana sat on the sofa and continued to watch TV. but she couldn’t concentrate at all.
She kept wondering if Maxim would go out.
After all, she had seen Maxim’s affection for Kiley in the past. Once, when she had just married Maxim, she
accidentally knocked a picture of him and Kiley on the bedside table to the ground. He got very angry with her and
gave her the cold shoulder for half a month before he spoke to her again.

watch it with you.”
Briana was silent for a moment, but couldn’t help saying. “Kiley has been out in the rain for over half an hour,
aren’t you going to check on
her?”
Detecting the probing in her tone, Maxim lowered his gaze to her, “Do you want me to leave?”
Briana’s hand, resting on the blanket, unconsciously tightened. She lowered her gaze and said, “I don’t have any

want to see her, couldn’t you just call security to kick her out?”
“Weren’t you heartbroken?”
“Having you alone was enough to break my heart. I didn’t have the energy to feel heartbroken for anyone else.”
Briana moved her gaze to the television with a blank expression, but the corner of her mouth couldn’t help but
twitch upwards.
The two watched a TV show for a while, Briana became a bit sleepy

No sooner had the words left her mouth than Maxim scooped her up and strode quickly towards the bedroom.
He laid her on the bed, and Maxim bent down to kiss her for a long
time before reluctantly letting her go. He covered her with a blanket and kissed her forehead.
“Go to sleep. I’m not tired yet. I’ll handle a bit more work.”
Briana hummed with her eyes closed, then turned over and fell asleep. not knowing if she had heard or not.
Maxim chuckled softly, turned off the light, and left the second bedroom.
