"I indeed went to meet a wo-" He felt melancholic when he heard her sad sigh and tried to explain.
However, before he could say anything, a slender finger was placed on his lips, stopping him from speaking further.
He looked at Anna worriedly. He didn't know what she was thinking.
Anna let out a small smile seeing him make a worried face. It meant her opinion mattered greatly to him, which warmed her heart. Max felt relieved watching her smile, but his expression froze the next instant.
"Little Max, tell me, do you like me as a woman?" Anna's smile was replaced by a serious expression as she asked this, and she looked into his eyes as if trying to see his thoughts.
Max was shocked; he had never expected her to ask this question.
'It finally came to this, huh?' Max thought. Although Max could faintly feel that Anna also liked him, seeing how 'addicted' she was to him, he didn't want to take the risk since she was one of the most important people to him.
