Love's Perfect Match

Yelena intended to play a prank on Arthur, but she accidentally pranked Max instead, so guilt immediately overwhelmed her. "I'm sorry. I was drinking water just now, and it spilled on your shoes. I accidentally stepped on you too." She glared at Arthur as she spoke, who was still smiling nonchalantly. Yelena cursed at him in secret. He's such an *sshole!

Seeing that it was Yelena, Max's rage subsided a little. "Oh, it's okay. It's fine since it's you. Just be careful next time."

At this moment, Edmund couldn't resist smacking Max on the back of his head while commenting sarcastically, "What do you mean it's okay because it's her? Would you have beaten us up if it was one of us? What a great brother you are. We're nothing in the face of your woman." Edmund was always sharp-tongued, so everyone was used to it.

Seeing that she showed remorse, Elspeth didn't want to scold her anymore. She then advised with a sigh, "Be more careful next time, and don't act impulsively."
