Capítulo 304: The rooftop

"Max." 

Sarah called even before she could think of anything, biting her tongue when Maxen looked back at her. She didn't know what came over her to call Maxen and stop him from getting out of the room, but since she already did, there was nothing she could do.

"Hmm?" Maxen tilted his head to the side, waiting for Sarah to say what she wanted to tell him. There wasn't anything distinct from his countenance.

"Are you okay?" asked Sarah with a tinge of nervousness before she awkwardly added, "don't get me wrong. I just noticed that something seemed off, so I'm asking. Did I misread it?"

Maxen kept his lips in a straight, thin line and took a few seconds before he answered. "Yes, you did, but thank you."

"Oh…" Sarah laughed awkwardly, watching Maxen walk away without looking back. "Something definitely is not right."
