章 168: Fat chance

Maxen raised his fist to knock on the door of Luke's apartment. However, he hesitated, retracting his hand away. Cosette and Maxen had agreed that he would check on Luke or stay with him for the night. Hence, he didn't stay in the Blac residence for over thirty minutes, leaving right after he changed clothes. 

'I don't want him to gloat in front of me.' A deep exhale slipped past his lips, only realizing now that he didn't think of Luke's reaction when he went back to this place. 'Should I just leave him be?'

Maxen took a step back, ruffling his hair in irritation. He gazed at the door and clicked his tongue, turning on his heel to leave. However, unlike what he wanted, his feet dragged him to the stairs going up to the roof of the apartment building.
