After finishing their passionate 'dessert,' Max brought Chleo back to New York through his teleport ability.
However, Chleo didn't go straight home, considering she didn't want her family to see Max's marks on her body. Maybe her father would give her an earful the whole day.
Luckily, Ashley was on vacation in New York, so Chleo could avoid her family by staying at a hotel with Ashley.
Max's car stopped right in front of the hotel lobby where Ashley was staying.
"Are you sure you don't want to go home?" Max asked once more before Chleo could get down.
"Whose fault that I can't go home?" Chleo pretended to pout by pursing her mouth.
"You can stay with me," Max continued in a witty tone that made Chleo roll her eyes.
And let you bully me? No, thank you. Chleo thought to herself.
Chleo did crave the man and wanted to have sex with him. After all, they had been married in their previous life, but the man still didn't want to do it.
