Chapter 371: Flustered

She silently watched the wooden box for a moment. From the look in her eyes, one could tell that this potential gift tempted her.

However, she kept her emotions in check and snorted, "Hmph! You think I'll forgive you just because you brought me a gift? I won't."

"Oh? So, you don't want to see what is inside the box?" Max asked, chuckling.

"N-No. I don't want to." Anna shook her head. However, her eyes were still glued to the box.

Max let out an elongated sigh and said, "Ai… too bad. I was sure you would definitely like it, but what can we do since you don't even want to see it?"

Saying this, he prepared to put the box away when suddenly, Anna grabbed his hand.

A victorious smile appeared on his face. Just as he was about to say something, Anna turned around.

She looked into his eyes, her expression serious as she said, "Do you know how much I was worried when I didn't see you here upon returning from my monthly mission?"
