Chapter 289
Maya no longer seemed as high-spirited and haughty as she was before. She did not even have any makeup on and all that was left on her face was a weary countenance.
She walked over to stand in front of Leanna. Just as Maya was about to say something, she turned her head and met Zoe’s curious eyes before snorting. “What are you staring at? Bedazzled by my natural beauty?”
Zoe was speechless beyond words as she thought, I’m gonna wash my eyes with acid.
Noticing that Maya seemed to have something to share with her, Leanna stated, “Zoe, why don’t you head inside first?”
As a result, Zoe nodded before glancing at Maya. “You’d better not try anything funny because I won’t let you get away with things!”
Surprisingly, Maya did not rebuke her words and merely turned her in the other direction, ignoring her.
As soon as Zoe entered the studio, Leanna asked, “Spill. Why are you here?”
Maya replied, “Let’s go for some coffee. My treat.”
Since her invite sounded sincere like never before, Leanna decided to go along with her to a nearby cafe.
After they had taken a seat, Maya stated, “You must be pleased to see me in such a state, huh?”
Leanna was amused by her words. “What is there to be happy about? What has this got to do with me?”
Maya responded, “Why didn’t you let me know in advance that your ex-husband was the president of Pearson Group? I behaved like an idiot as I flaunted in front of you. You must have felt quite smug about it, huh?”
“Whatever floats your boat.”
It was then the waiter served their coffee.
