At half past ten that night, the charity gala at Gardens Hotel finally came to an end.

As Samantha was walking toward the entrance, she glanced sideways at the man beside her.

He remained as aloof as ever, with an inextricable fury between his brows.

Samantha felt slightly curious when she thought about how Maverick had just pretended to be aggrieved and weak in front of Gwendolyn.

“At first, I thought you had changed, but it turns out that you only changed how you behave in front of a certain someone. I’m really curious. Are you just putting on an act before her? Or, have you truly fallen for her?”

Maverick walked nobly in an upright posture with his expensive suit. It was as if he hadn’t heard her as he continued walking without a word.

Despite being ignored, Samantha did not feel embarrassed. She continued walking forward and got in the car with him.

Nico sat in the middle of the two people in the back seat.

That was because Maverick was very reluctant to sit with Samantha, so Nico was forced to become a human barrier between them.

Since the car was driving at high speed, it only took eight minutes to reach the outskirts.

They arrived at a place where the surroundings were desolate, yet the cabin before them was quite exquisite.

Samantha had brought a bodyguard with her, so the four of them entered the cabin together.

With only an oil lamp lit, the lighting was dim in the cabin.

Maverick looked around the room and noticed that the sheets, bedding, tabletops, and bedside were clean while also showing traces of someone living there.

It seemed that ever since Natasha was taken out of prison, she had been living there all the while.

When Maverick thought about that, he glanced at Samantha and sneered. “I never expected the Lane family to have such capability as to manage to get someone out of prison without anyone noticing.”

Samantha chuckled and replied, “Of course. She’s your sweetheart. Saving her means I’m helping you as well.”

“She’s not my sweetheart,” Maverick answered without hesitation. He was sure she had never been the one he loved.

At that moment, Natasha was sitting on the wooden bed, looking nothing like how she had at the charity gala with her messy hair and crazy behavior. Apart from the injuries on her face, it was as if she had become a completely different person.

Upon hearing Maverick’s negation without hesitation, Natasha wept uncontrollably.
