Leana woke up with a crumpled body. Last night they were overtime and it made Leana exhausted. Max makes Leana recover from her trauma, because Leana is not afraid when they make love. Leana also enjoyed it so much that they forgot the time.
Slowly, Leana put away Max's hand that was still on her waist. Max seems to be sleeping very well, so Leana deliberately does not want to wake her husband.
Leana was already a Scotts, so she had to follow the rules here, especially the words of her in-laws. Yes, Leana is determined to make Vero's views on her change. So, Leana's gonna go downstairs and meet Vero to talk to him.
But, just one step away, Leana cried out in pain. Max, hearing his wife's voice, woke up. She was very sensitive to Leana's voice.
"Bee, where are you going?" ask Max who is now beside Leana.
"You're bathing. But, it hurts." said Leana while biting her lower lip.
"Gosh Bee.. Why don't you wake me up?" Max held Leana without saying much anymore. She knew that Leana would definitely be sick, considering that she had just started making real love outside of the bad events.
While preparing the water, Max places Leana on the sidelines of the sink, where they kissed yesterday. Leana watched her man's back which was filled with scars. Last night's question was answered again. Questions that he did not have time to ask because he was too busy doing sports nights.
"Water's ready. Please princess." Max returns to hold Leana to put her in the bath tub.
Leana who still wanted to ask Max, held the hand of the man who was about to leave.
"Max, can I rub your back?" leana said shyly.
"of course. This body is yours, so you can do anything." joked Max as he walked into the bathtub as well. He was even happy because Leana took the initiative first. Max thought Leana was no longer shy.
Leana took the shower puff and started rubbing carefully.
"Max.does this hurt?"
"What?"
"His wounds."
Max shut up for a second. "Yes, it still hurts." she answered meaningfully.
"Are you playing with a tiger until your whole back is blisters like this?" ask Leana again. Max has some extreme pets in the basement that Leana saw some time ago. But, it seemed like Leana did not see the tiger.
"Yes, you're right."
"Seriously?" Leana was quite surprised to hear Max's answer. "But where's the tiger?"
"Had died."
"Ooh.thank God." "Don't play with wild animals anymore, Max."
"Even though you love the beast?"
"Yes, you should just look at it from a distance and don't get close."
"Okay, I'm not gonna play with a beast anymore, 'cause I'm playing with you."
"Max, you can joke too." Leana pinches Max waist plan.
"Just like you, Bee." Max turned to look at Leana. "Never stay with me, Bee."
"I should have said that, baby." Leana holds Max's cheek. Her husband is very handsome and authoritative, so it is not impossible if many women like Max.
"I don't think I need Ericka anymore." Max held Leana's lips so sweet. It was a panacea and Max might be able to do therapy with Leana alone.
"Max, you have to work." remember Leana.
"No, Mom's gonna be pissed if you don't work."
"Just be wild. Why are you so scared of Mom?" ask Max curiously.
"Mom doesn't like me. So, like Marco said, I have to be the daughter-in-law Mom wants me to be."
Hearing Leana talk about Marco and Vero, Max's mood was immediately broken.
Leana, who realizes Max's change in attitude, feels guilty. It seems that the relationship between the three of them is not okay and feels foreign. They are like strangers living together.
"Darling, don't worry.." "You just work." Leana looked at Max and kissed him first.

Max and Leana get out of the room together. Max walks a step behind Leana to keep an eye on his unwilling wife. Though they were repeating the activity of making love after bathing.
"For Mom, Marco." greeted Leana kindly.
Vero did not answer, instead busy playing his phone. While Marco only smiled faintly, then returned to eating casually.
"Why are you Max? Are you sick?" ask Vero who is now paying attention to Max's clothes.
Max uses a long-sleeved sweeater that covers up the neck.
"To cover the wound." Max answered honestly.
'Uhuk' Leana immediately coughed at Max who was too honest.
Yeah, last night Leana scratched Max, and there was a red mark on Max's neck.
"Slow Bee." Max rubbed Leana's back gently.
"Oh yes, today Mom will gather with her friends at the Emerald Hotel. Mom will take Gina." said Vero who did not care about Leana who was still coughing.
"Mom, can Lea come?"
"Bee.." "Leanna!" Max and Marco shouted at the same time. Gina was lazy to follow Vero, but Leana instead offered herself to be a victim?
"You can't go, Bee. remember that.." Max codes Leana's stomach. But, he meant Leana's wounds that had not healed.
"Why don't you go to a restaurant?" added Marco.
"Max, I want to get closer to Mom, can't I?" leana to the point.
"Le, why are you leaving with Mom?" marco whispered next to Leana.
"You think I should be Mom's favorite daughter-in-law?"
"But it doesn't have to be like this."
"Okey, Mom will go with Leana" Vero said loudly.
It makes Marco and Max look at Vero at the same time.
