Bab 1736: One day in Moscow (2)

The man saw that Sarah is not looking at him and he was not willing to give up easily. "Are you sure you are not trying to avoid me?"

"Why would I avoid you? I don't know who you are.", Sarah responded dryly.

He chuckled. "Oh, that's right. I'm Maksim. And you are…?"

"Married."

Maksim clutched his chest dramatically. "An instant rejection without giving me a name. I don't know if I can recuperate from this. You might need to hold my hand and tell me that you are joking… and kiss me to make it better."

Sarah thought that he is silly. He is a grown-up man, wearing an expensive suit, and acting like a child. She was confident that numerous women fell for this act where he would lower himself in order to woo a lady, but she is different. "I believe you will manage."

He exhaled. "You are a cruel woman. Beautiful, but cruel."

"And married.", Sarah reminded him.
