Chapter 120 - 118 Inhumanity [1 more update]
"Mm! I came to check on you." Jane Spencer looked at the girl’s panicked expression and pretended to answer nonchalantly.
Yet, her heart was as clear as a mirror. Maya Spencer’s reflexive behavior completely gave them away. If nothing had happened between them, why would Maya instinctively pull the blanket over her body upon hearing her voice? It seemed that they had indeed crossed the final line.
As a result, her gaze immediately turned to Liam Spencer, looking quite sour, as if questioning him about his intentions.
Liam Spencer met his sister’s gaze with indifference, raised his right hand, and gently ruffled Maya’s hair, speaking softly, "The ship will dock in an hour, get up quickly and get ready."
However, he fully understood what his sister’s gaze was conveying. It was merely her observing Maya’s actions and deducing what they had done. So be it! If she dared to ask, he dared to admit it. He had always been a man who owned up to his actions.
Maya listened to his reminder, her eyes darting around, noticing that both she and Liam were fully dressed, realizing she had overreacted. She tried to appear calm, lifted the blanket, put on her slippers, and responded with a simple "Mm!"
Then she looked at Liam and said, "Thank you for last night, Third Brother."
"Mm!" The man responded softly, accepting her gratitude. He thought she was thanking him for jumping into the water to save her last night, not knowing she was grateful for him taking her into his room, preventing her from being harmed while unconscious again.
