Chapter 736

Cosmo retorted irritably, “When have I ever been stubborn? I think his temperament is just like his mother’s!”

Mentioning Blanche, a touch of nostalgia and tenderness flashed in Cosmo’s eyes, softening the rugged lines of his face considerably.

If it hadn’t been for his parents deleting that message from Blanche, if he had kept his appointment on time, perhaps he would have gone with Blanche to a small county town where no one knew them, living an ordinary and happy life.

Every time he thought of that possibility, he couldn’t help but feel a surge of regret and pain in his heart.

He took off his glasses, looking as if he had aged by more than a decade.

When Maxim left Vision Mansion, his face was gloomy. He walked straight to the car, opened the door and sat down, coldly saying, “Back to the company.”

Rayan wanted to ask him if he wasn’t going home, but seeing his gloomy face, he ultimately didn’t voice the question.

Returning to the company, Maxim went straight to his office after asking Rayan to leave.

However, after opening the file, he couldn’t read a single word. All he could think about were the words Cosmo had just said to him.

Three years ago, he found out that Cosmo was his biological father and that the key was what he had given to Blanche. He then went straight

to Haseton with the key, returned it to him in person, and said that he would not acknowledge him in the future.

Although he had developed the Yoder Group in Haseton over the past three years, he and Cosmo were like two parallel lines that never intersected, each avoiding the other.

He had originally thought that Cosmo shared his views, but to his surprise, he actually planned to hand over the Vanderberg family to him.

What a lunatic!

Thinking of the Vanderberg family, disgust flashed in Maxim’s eyes. Everyone was scheming in their hearts and minds, thinking about how to get a bit more of the Vanderberg family’s wealth.

Such a family had long been rotten to the core, and he didn’t want to wade into this muddy water.

Late at night, Maxim returned to the villa.

Only one lamp was lit in the living room, and Briana Cameron was asleep on the sofa, her long hair covering most of her face, revealing only her pink cherry lips and delicate, petite chin. With each breath, her lips parted slightly, like a tempting peach ready to be picked.

Maxim’s steps faltered for a moment, suddenly feeling a tightness in his throat.

He tread lightly, slowly crouching down next to Briana Cameron, gazing at her with a fascinated look.

In her sleep, sensing a gaze fixed intently on herself, Briana Cameron slowly opened her eyes.

Seeing Maxim’s magnified handsome face, I was immediately startled.

When did you come back? Why didn’t you wake me up?

Briana Cameron clutched her rapidly beating heart, had she not reacted quickly, she would have already punched Maxim in the face.

“Just got back, saw you sleeping soundly, didn’t have the heart to wake you up.”

Briana Cameron: “……

You were just squatting there, staring at me, it was really scary, okay?

Perhaps noticing the speechlessness on her face, Maxim touched his nose and changed the subject, “Did you fall asleep on the sofa waiting for me?”

A flicker of panic flashed in Briana Cameron’s eyes, then she calmly said, “No, I just fell asleep while watching TV.”

“Then why was the TV off now?”

Seeing the inquiry in his eyes, Briana Cameron frowned, her voice somewhat cold, “Mr. Yoder, you don’t need to test me, I have absolutely no interest in you, nor do I intend to rekindle any feelings with you. Tonight was truly an accident. I’m going to bed now.”

After speaking, Briana Cameron pushed him away, put on her slippers, and went straight upstairs.

It was not until Briana Cameron returned to her room that she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

What followed was regret. Why on earth did I care about when he would return, even to the point of falling asleep waiting for him downstairs.

There’s no need to care about someone who will become a stranger in
