Chapter 753 Be Responsible for Me
Max’s question was really ambiguous.
“Why did you leave without saying goodbye to me in the morning?”
Anne felt a headache coming on. She could envision that, after this meeting, everyone would likely gossip about her with great enthusiasm.
“I saw you buying breakfast downstairs and leaving without telling me,” Max added, but her heart still skipped a beat.
Anne replied in a respectful tone, “Really? Maybe I didn’t see you.”
She deliberately distanced herself from Max in front of everyone, implying that they were not familiar with each other.
Sure enough, upon hearing this, the onlookers‘ gaze at her was not as intense as before.
But Max’s face turned cold.
We have just been intimate with each other, yet she is attempting to maintain a distance from me. What does she
mean?
After the meeting, people began filing out of the meeting room
Chapter 753 Be Responsible for Me one by one.
Anne followed the crowd, ready to leave.

But when she passed Max’s seat, he suddenly shouted, “Anne.”
She had no choice but to pause,
In an instant, some people quietly fixed their eyes on them.
Max, his expression composed, leafed through the documents in his hand. “Wait a minute. I need to talk to you further regarding this group.”
Anne stayed reluctantly.
Learning that it was related to work, the crowd scattered.
Anne stood still.
The last one to leave was Max’s assistant.
He even “kindly” locked the door of the meeting room.
Suddenly, in the enclosed room, only Anne and Max remained.
She was on edge.
Perhaps their unexpected intimacy last night made them close at once, but she left without saying goodbye in the morning…
At that moment, she couldn’t help but feel guilty.

Anne was stunned. She had thought he would ask why she had sneaked away in the morning.
However, much to her astonishment, he expressed his concern
for her.
Though touched, she gently shook her head.
Early in the morning, Anne encountered Dante downstairs in the community and engaged in conversation with him. Consequently, she was so distracted throughout the morning that she even forgot to have breakfast.
Max retrieved a somewhat misshapen sandwich from his pocket.
“Eat it. I remember you have hypoglycemia.”
As a dancer, Anne was obliged to manage her weight constantly throughout the year, and it was quite common for her to skip a meal.
To her surprise, after so many years, Max still remembered it.
This was the second time he had brought her breakfast.
She accepted it, ripped open the wrapping, and took a mouthful.
It was still warm.

Chapter 753 Be Responsible for Me The meeting lasted nearly an hour. No wonder Max had been constantly putting his hand in his pocket earlier.
It turned out he’d been keeping the sandwich warm for her.
Anne looked up and smiled at him. “Thank you. It’s delicious.”
Max chuckled. “I am glad that you like it. However, it would be even better if you tasted it in the canteen.”
Anne remained silent. She was aware that if she were to respond, Max would surely ask her to have a meal together.
At that moment, her mood was in a whirl, and she hadn’t figured out how to face him.
Max stared at her for a while. Her silence disappointed him.
He then blinked and composed himself. “Remember to eat on time. Get back to work.”
Anne, feeling relieved, hurriedly opened the door of the meeting room and rushed out.
Over the following two days, even when she bumped into Max at the company, they merely nodded at each other. Neither of them brought up that particular night.
The debut song was decided.
Anne was engaged in intensive work.

The company placed great expectations on the group. Moreover, these were the first batch of trainees that Anne had taken under
her wing since she joined the company.
They were very hardworking, so she hoped that they could become a hit.
So, in recent days, she volunteered to work overtime, setting aside all external distractions and accompanying them to perfect the minutiae of the dance routine.
At half past eleven that night, Anne finally wrapped up the practice.
After wiping the sweat from her forehead and changing clothes, she was ready to go home.
Unexpectedly, she ran into Max in the corridor.
He leaned against the wall in a relaxed posture, giving the impression that he had been waiting for quite a while.
Anne was stunned. While walking past him, she said, “Mr. Blunt.”
“Your face looks rather pale. Is the work too strenuous? How are your legs?” Max straightened up and took two steps nearer to her.
All departments of the company performed their duties. As the boss, he was actually quite at leisure.

For several days, when Max finished work and walked past the dance room, Anne, drenched in sweat, still explained the dance movements to those trainees.
He stared at her from a distance without disturbing her.
“Not bad.”
Anne understood that it was a hard–won chance to pursue what she loved as a career.
She had old leg injuries that would ache when it rained. She hadn’t anticipated that Max would recall this.
“It’s getting late. How about I drive you home?” he asked very naturally.
Anne couldn’t refuse.
Her driver’s license was not valid in Havenbrook. Besides, the driver’s seat was positioned on the right.
During this period, after work in the middle of the night, she had to take a taxi back.
Over the past two days, Anne had been trying to avoid Max, and surely he must have sensed it.
It dawned on her that he should be waiting for her on purpose.
They got in the car, and the car sped towards the community where Anne resided.

On the
way, Max said, “It seems that you have adapted well to your work.”
Anne nodded. After a long, busy day, she was completely drained. But when he brought up work, she managed to muster a bit of energy.
She indeed loved her job sincerely.
“The trainees in this group are extremely diligent and modest. Without a doubt, they are bound to become popular in the future.”
Max said, “It’s your credit. I watched the dance demo, and the arrangements were top–notch.”
Receiving praise for her professional prowess, Anne was naturally in high spirits.
She beamed with joy.
They chatted, carefully avoiding any reference to that night, as if nothing had happened.
When the car pulled over downstairs of the community, Anne tilted her head and thanked Max, ready to get out.
The moment she opened the door, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her back.
Their eyes met, and all of a sudden, the space between them
Sper sa DE Responsible for Me seemed to shrink significantly. Anne tensed up abruptly.
“You are avoiding me, aren’t you?”
Max’s tone wasn’t as cold as it was when he handled work–related matters.
His gentle gaze inexplicably instilled in Anne a sense of great amiability.
She replied calmly, “No.”
Max laughed.

He could feel whether she was hiding from him or not, and Anne must be aware of it.
“Then why don’t you talk about that night?”
Max pulled Anne over with one hand on the back of her head.
“Are you still going to act as if nothing occurred? Anne, you slept with me. Shouldn’t you be responsible for me?”
