Chapter 24 - 22: Flirting and Bickering
"Mmm-hmm, let’s go back to your room and watch," Henry Reid said as he stood up, grabbing Maya Spencer’s little hand, completely ignoring the girl running towards him.
Jane Spencer was upstairs, watching their little antics, covering her mouth as she laughed, thinking, this bold little girl, isn’t she afraid of Hannah and Elia?
However, Maya wouldn’t let Henry into her room to check her body. She tilted her head back, looking at him with deep affection, and said, "No way! I have something to do now and need to go out."
"Maya, where are you going? I’ll take you."
"Um... um, do you have any money? I’m going to visit someone in the hospital, but I don’t have money to buy a gift."
"I do! I do! As much as you need." Henry was eager to give Maya anything she needed, even if it meant giving up the entire Reid Family estate. He quickly took out his wallet to give her money.
Maya looked at Henry’s open wallet, raised her small hand, took it, and removed a wad of red bills, saying with a cheeky grin, "Just this much is enough." She then handed the wallet back to him.
Seeing this, Henry opened his wallet again, pulled out his black card, and handed it to her, saying, "Maya, how can this small amount be enough? Take this card; it has no limit, buy whatever you want."
"Henry, are you silly? Just because you have a lot of money doesn’t mean I can’t spend it all. I’m not arguing with you; I’m going to see my friend." Maya didn’t take Henry’s card, sashayed her waist, and walked towards the door, feeling satisfied at the pale face behind her.
Originally, she didn’t want to have any entanglements with Henry, but seeing the excitement on Elia’s face as she ran toward him annoyed her. She just wanted to upset her, to see if she would still provoke her in the future.
