In the luxurious banquet with glasses clinking and chatter filling the air, Mia Williams weaved through the crowd heading straight to the elevator.

Upstairs lay the most finest hotel in Yonkers City, and where she wanted to go was the top presidential suite, which was so exclusive that even the wealthy found it difficult to book.

This was the purpose of her coming to this banquet. Only by pleasing the rich businessman who bid for her, could the precarious Williams family be saved.

Pushing open the suite door, a tall and imposing figure came into view. The high-cut suit perfectly outlined his figure, which looked mysterious and sexy under the blurred light.

The man leaned lazily against the window. When he saw her stunned expression, the corners of his mouth lifted into an arc, and his perfectly carved face finally showed a trace of human warmth.

This face... Mia felt a wave of frustration in her chest. This face was something she couldn't be more familiar with.

But why was he here?!

"Sorry, I must have walked into the wrong room. Please excuse me." Mia finished her words subconsciously and wanted to run away immediately.

As soon as she finished speaking, the man's deep voice came. "There's only this set of presidential suite. Are you sure you went to the wrong one?"

Mia ignored him and continued walking forward.

The man's slender knuckles were gently clasped on the window edge as he tapped on the windowsill with his long fingers and said nonchalantly, "If you want to save the Williams family, this is your last chance."

Just a few words made her feel like she was in an ice cellar.

This was her ex-husband, Maxwell Langston-the God's favored son of Yonkers City and a legendary figure in the business world. He had a god-like appearance, yet as if he was a devil from hell.

Mia hesitated to turn around and meet his eyes. In just a moment, she was defeated and shifted her gaze elsewhere. She gritted her teeth and said, "How I handle this is none of your business, Mr. Maxwell."

"Oh?" The man strode to her side, lifted her chin, and forced her to look into his eyes. "If I remember correctly, are you here to sacrifice yourself?"

He really... did not change at all.

He was still high and mighty, surrounded by an aura of nobility. He was still aggressive and elusive.

If it weren't for the fact that he forced the Williams family into this situation step by step during the half a year after the divorce, how could be needed to sell herself to save the precious Williams family? Now he was here, wasn't he deliberately humiliating her or anything?

Mia took a step back and pulled away from his hand. "Anyone can, but you can't."

She could sell it to anyone, but she couldn't let the man in front of her humiliate her again.

When he heard this, Maxwell's expression turned cold as he approached her step by step. "Mia, you better remember this well. I'm the only one who can do it, no one else can!"

"Mr. Maxwell, what right do you have to control me?" The resentment accumulated in her heart could no longer be suppressed at this time. Mia did not avoid his sight and went straight up to him. "It has been half a year since the divorce. Logically speaking, you and I have nothing to do with each other. Please respect yourself, Mr. Maxwell."

After finishing her words, she ignored the man's increasingly profound gaze and turned to walk outside.

But after a few steps, she felt her legs go weak uncontrollably. Fortunately, she reacted quickly, so she didn't fall down to the wall and show her ugly face in front of him.

All of a sudden, a wave of heat rushed up and made her couldn't help twisting her body, as if... as if she needed a man to soothe her to feel better.

What's wrong with her?

Could it be that she had been drugged?

But... who would do this? When did she get drugged?

Before she could sort out her thoughts, she collapsed and fell into a wide and warm embrace.

There was a slight emotional fluctuation on Maxwell's face that she could not understand, but he quickly concealed it. He looked mockingly at the woman in his arms, whose eyes were blurred. "Are you throwing yourself into my arms again?"

Yet again...

This world was very ironic. A year ago, she was like this. She didn't know why she was in Maxwell's bed. After being photographed by a paparazzi, she added fuel to the fire and spread it among the major media.

With Maxwell's status, if he were to distance himself from her like this, he would definitely bring shame to the Langston family. He could only marry her under the pressure of public opinion. However, this had also become the beginning of his hatred for her.

The past gradually emerged in her mind and made her gradually sober up.

"No, no..." She struggled to push him away, but found that her limbs could not exert any strength at all. The sound she made was more like a temptation than a refusal.

Seeing her like this, Maxwell sneered and said, "You're really good at refusing and welcoming."

Mia had always been a beauty. At this moment, she looked even more charming and charming under the hazy stern look. In addition, her slightly opened cherry lips and restless and twisted body made her look even more seductive.

The scent of high-end cologne, mixed with the man's noble and sexy aura, reached her nostrils, making her heart itch even more. In addition, the man in front of her had outstanding facial features and deep eyes, which was undoubtedly the biggest temptation for her now.

No, he couldn't do this!

She clenched her fists so hard that her nails dug into her flesh to keep herself awake. However, her voice was soft and gentle as she said, "Mr. Maxwell, I'm here to offer myself to a wealthy businessman who bought me. This skill of teasing and resisting isn't something I learned to use on you."

The man behind her was silent for a long time before he slowly said, "Mia, it's not up to you to decide."
