Chapter 242

Alpha 242

Max said he would take me to his favorite restaurant in this pack.

He never failed to cast a glance in my direction throughout the entire ride. I was able to sense his gaze. He looked excited.

I blushed because he was trying to find some topic to talk about with me. I could not deny myself that I really like this man. His personality as Doctor Max was appealing to me. He was someone I had always heard a lot about. He was a kind man who always liked to help others and make new cures for unknown diseases.

Now, it was time to know him as Max Harrison.

I was well aware that allowing a man into my life would not be easy for me. But at this point, I was adamant about moving on.

I vowed that I would never again look back at my past. Since I gave this man a chance, I would never do the same to him as what my past had done to me.

The car stopped in front of a five–star restaurant. Max’s driver got out of the car and opened the door for him. I got out of the car without waiting for others to open the door for me.

I was not the princess anymore. So, I did not need the treatment. I was used to this ordinary life now.

Max approached me, and we went to the restaurant together.

The door to the restaurant was being opened by a group of young men at the time that we were proceeding inside. They looked like the rich brats of some wealthy businessmen. The way they

walked so recklessly could explain that.

I was about to enter when one of the boys pushed me with his shoulder. I was on the verge of falling when Max held me in his

arms.

“Upps, sorry, dear,” the boy said with a laugh and walked past me. His friends were also laughing when they heard him.

“Don’t you have any manners? Or do you want me to complain to your father? Could it be that he is Professor Williamson?”

The boy’s eyes widened as he shifted his gaze Max.

“Sorry, ma–Oh, Doctor Max!”

The boy immediately lowered his head in embarrassment and muttered,

“Sorry, sir. Don’t complain to my dad.”

The other boys looked equally stunned as they recognized Max.

Max ignored them and stepped inside the restaurant. His hands were still encircling around my shoulder.

I slowly turned my head toward him. He was not only handsome but also charming. He was calm yet powerful.

The way he protected me on the road and just a few moments ago too made me feel good.

I bit my bottom lip and lowered my head without saying a word. noveldrama

I was not used to being with a man like that. I had never dated anyone in my life, so I had no idea how the relationship worked. The marriage I wanted to succeed in broke me completely, and I could never give anyone a chance.

Max walked over to the reception counter and asked for a table.

When we approached,the table, Max pulled a chair for me. I smiled at him and sat down on the chair.

“Thank you.”

His small yet gentle gestures were grabbing my heart.

We ordered food, then talked about my brother’s health. We spent quite some time in the restaurant.

When I glanced at the watch, I was shocked.

“Oh no! I have to return to the coffee shop.”

He nodded at me and said,

“I will drop you there.”

I could not refuse him and replied, “Okay.”

When we arrived at the Moon Lovers coffee shop, I thanked him and was about to exit his car.

But his voice stopped me.

“Natalia.”

I turned to him and asked,

“Yes?”

“I received the invitation to your kids‘ birthday celebration. I want you to join me. Would you join me at the party as my partner?”
