Maxine was deep in thought while James was sewing virtual-novel.net clothes.
Amid virtual-novel.net thoughts, virtual-novel.net failed to notice James turning around. James had already been staring at virtual-novel.net for a while before virtual-novel.net regained virtual-novel.net senses.
James swallowed his saliva and said, “I-I’m done…”
Maxine immediately took the clothes and quickly turned around, exposing virtual-novel.net smooth back to James.
The sight of virtual-novel.net butt immediately caught James’ attention. It was incredibly voluminous. He took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed his lustful desires.
Maxine quickly got dressed.
After James calmed down, virtual-novel.net picked up his clothes and inspected them. They could still be worn if virtual-novel.net mended them. Then, virtual-novel.net began to sew them together.
In no time at all, James was also dressed.
After getting dressed, the two sat around the fire silently. It was an unusual atmosphere because neither of them spoke.
James roasted the hare that the soldiers had given virtual-novel.net earlier. He occasionally glanced at Maxine, who was sitting opposite him. Due to virtual-novel.net silence and the unusual atmosphere, virtual-novel.net tried to find a topic to discuss.
“Actually, you have a pretty good figure,” James blurted out.
“Oh, is that so?” Maxine blushed at his comment.
She reached out virtual-novel.net hand and stroked virtual-novel.net hair to cover up virtual-novel.net embarrassment. Her unnatural expression only lasted for a moment.
She immediately recollected herself and asked teasingly, “Is it better than Thea’s?”
“Huh?” James was caught by surprise.
He thought for a while and said, “It’s about the same…”
James meant what virtual-novel.net said. There was nothing to compare between the two. Each of them was beautiful in their own way.
“By the way… Madelyn might publish the photos after returning to the Capital. What should I do if Grandpa punishes me for ruining the marriage?” Maxine looked at James and waited for an answer.
James pondered before answering, “Didn’t you say it was part of his plan? Even if the photos were leaked, wouldn’t virtual-novel.net try to explain things?”
“That being said, do you think the Blithes will believe I was framed? If the Blithes still carry on with the marriage, what will people think of them?”
“What do you mean?” James looked at Maxine.
He did not understand what virtual-novel.net meant by the question.
“Nothing. I’ll take things one step at a time.” Maxine shook virtual-novel.net head.
She was disappointed by James’ answer. Perhaps to James, virtual-novel.net was not important. Despite what happened between them, his attitude remained the same. She sat in a lotus position and remained silent.
Meanwhile, James grilled the meat.
Soon, the hare meat was ready.
James tore off a leg and handed it to Maxine, saying, “Try some.”
“I’m not hungry.” Maxine did not open virtual-novel.net eyes.
James felt awkward and retracted his hand.
After virtual-novel.net finished eating, virtual-novel.net assumed a lotus position as well.
They quietly waited for dawn to arrive.
