Master of his heart

Chapter 205
The charity banquet hosted by the Hatfield family was different from other events.
Being at powerful family, they didn’t need media hype, so the venue was chosen
in a suburban mansion. There would be a bonfire party at the mansion in the
evening, and most of the attendees for this event were young people.
Max's attendance was a surprise that buzzed through the crowd. Polite to a fault
when. approached by networking entrepreneurs, his cool detachment was
palpable. Business niceties aside, he kept personal connections firmly at arm's
length.
Over time, the consensus became that Max was supposed to be untouchable
and unreachable. so his presence that evening was nothing short of astounding.
Rumors swirled that he might even stay the night at the accommodations
provided by the Hatfields.
Setting his drink down, Max caught Lillian’s persistent gaze. The corners of his
mouth tilted ever so slightly, his dark lashes casting shadows over enigmatic
eyes. Her heart raced at his aloof demeanor, her voice catching in her throat,
“Max, are you planning to stay at the estate tonight?”
Max raised an eyebrow, lightly chuckled, and nodded, as if extending an
unspoken invitation. He originally had no intention of staying, but now he wanted
to. He was looking forward to tonight's drama, hoping not to be disappointed.
Lillian’s hopes soared at his nod. She leaned in, only to be interrupted by a
businessman eager to discuss a deal. With a sigh, she retreated to her brother
Cameron, clutching her drink with barely contained excitement. “Cameron, you
said you'd help me, right? He's staying over, and he told me. Does that mean
something?”
Her cheeks flushed with anticipation. She had even ordered a set of custom,
sensuous nightwear, determined to win Max over.
Seeing her expression, Cameron felt a bitter taste in his mouth. “I've made
arrangements, Lillian, but remember, this is Max. If you upset him...”
“Cameron, didn’t you see? He was talking to me. He doesn't dislike me. If I can
successfully get pregnant, I'm sure I can marry him.”
“But there's Alivia...”
Lillian scoffed, “Max never acknowledged Alivia. That's just media speculation.
Even if they were to marry, it's a long way off. I just need to catch his eye first,
and I've won.
Cameron immediately fell silent. He had no principles when it came to Lillian.
Lillian’s triumphant smile grew. Her gaze kept flickering to Max, wishing she could
stick to him like gum on his shoe.
