Chapter 22: To Be Her...SLAVE?!

"What the heck are you doing here?!"

Her eyes widened as soon as she recognized the face she didn't want to see.

Their eyes met, and it also surprised the young, handsome man. "Hey! I should be the one asking you that!" he exclaimed.

Since the coffee shop was packed with customers, the noisy atmosphere covered their voices. Max leaned his back and crossed his arms. Only gazing at the young miss across from him.

However, Athasia wasn't amused. Her amethyst eyes darkened as he glared back at Max. "What the fuck are you doing here?" she mumbled.

Max twitched his eyes and then grasped his arm. "Did you just curse me?" He leaned closer and put his closed fist on the table.

Athasia snorted a chuckle and rolled her eyes. "So what?" he replied.

She's very annoyed. She did all her best to come here secretly and this young man over here just ruined her plan. Well, she didn't want to work in a coffee shop in the first place. This is only one of her options.

However, just by being seen by Maximillian Svestin, the male lead, wasn't even in her plan at all. Who knows if he ran his mouth at school to badmouth Athasia?

The strings snapped between them, and a crackle of lightning started to spark.

Max clicked his tongue and averted his gaze. "Tch! I lost my appetite." he grumbled.

"Hah?!" Athasia groaned. Her blood boiled up to her head, and she kicked Max's legs under the table. "Who cares if you lost your appetite, you spoiled brat?!" she sneered.

The young man curled and sprang. He's not patient. He's used to seeing people trembling in front of his eyes, so just by seeing Athasia back firing him made him annoyed.

And just like that, he took the Young Miss' hand and they both of them exited the coffee shop.

"Hey!" Athasia yelled as soon as she grabbed her hands back. She massaged her wrist, admitting that Max's grip was a bit tight. "What the heck are you doing?!"

This is not good after all. Meeting the male lead in the middle of her plan was enough to ruin her day. Max's family was close to Alexis Rymerton. They're childhood friends, right? She's the only one who can stand Max's temper.

'I'm the only one who can stand your temper, right?' She thought, playfully grinning.

Athasia stepped forward, closing the distance between their faces. "Heh?~...why are you so pumped up meeting me accidentally, Max?"

Hearing his name, Max felt something like the back of his nape turned stiff.

An idea immediately came into her mind. She raised her hand and tilted Max's chin. "What is this? Are you hiding something?" she asked, grinned.

The young man didn't move, he took Athasia's hand and smirked. "Why? Are you interested in joining me?" He leaned closer, too. "I came here because my father wanted to buy this coffee shop. Shouldn't I be the one asking you why you're here"

Athasia backed away. She rolled her eyes, "Whatever!"

She turned on her heels and was about to walk away when Max grabbed her back. "Where are you going?" he asked.

Athasia turned her head, but as soon as she turned her heels, 2 black cars stopped in front of them.

Almost five men in black suits stepped out from the other car. They surrounded them and all bowed their heads.

"Young Master, where have you been? The master is so worried," one of them said. "Please don't wander around alone and escape," he added.

Both Athasia and Max looked at each other. Then the guy was the first one who averted his gaze.

'Aha? What is this? Did this Young Master here escape from his castle?' The Young Miss couldn't help but secretly grinned. She shot a quick glance at Max before turning to one of the men in suits. "Eh? But I thought he came here because his father wanted to buy this coffee shop?" she snickered.

To her surprise, the men in suits also bowed their heads to her. "It's nice seeing you here, Young Miss Rymerton!" They greeted in unison.

"Eh?" Athasia was dumbfounded. Though she immediately greeted them back, because she's littleyoonie and she knew why they're acting like this.

Athasia was Maximilian's childhood friend, and she spent more of her time at the guy's place when both of them were close back then. These men recognized her immediately.

They once again faced Maximilian. "Young Master, your father ordered us to take you back." the one who seemed to be the most familiar with Max, said.

However, the male lead's face surprisingly became devastated. Max frowned and clenched his fist. For sure, his father will scold him again for running away before meeting their guests at home.

And unconsciously, his hand moved on its own, grabbing Athasia forward, who stumbled onto his chest.

The Young Miss looked up with astonishment. "E-Eh? W-What are y-you doing?!" she exclaimed.

Max grasped her, but this time, a bit careful. He faced his father's underlings and proclaimed. "She's the reason why I'm here…" His face was stern, without even blinking.

The men around them got startled that they also looked at each other alternately.

"What are you looking at?! Hurry and open the door," Max ordered.

They opened the door of the other car. "Please step in, Y-Young Master and Y-Young Miss.."

Max pulled Athasia into the car. He cornered the young lady and said. "Don't run away because I will not let go either," his deep blue eyes became sharper. "Get inside.." he ordered.

Athasia's body also moved on its own, stepping inside the car. She leaned on the window and smirked after Max stepped in. He told the driver to go home straight, and the ride went on.

The Young Miss couldn't help but smirked secretly. Because she knew for sure. Max will need her help and it will give her an advantage.

'Should I make him my slave after this?' she thought. 'How amusing'
