40,000 for a smile

"Yeah." Max nodded without thinking. But the next moment, his expression froze when he felt three piercing gazes on him. He smiled wryly and said, "You guys aren't any less beaut-"

Hehe~

As he started speaking, Rima giggled, "I was just kidding." 

"Oh?" Max was stunned for a moment before he turned to Belen and Leticia, who also had smiles on their faces which he found strange. It was understandable if only Belen and Rima seemed unaffected, but Leticia seemed fine too.

From what he knew, Leticia was the most jealous among the ladies. The latest example would be when the servant girl tried to flirt with him, and she was instantly provoked.

When Leticia saw him looking at her with a confused look, she felt bitter. It was true she didn't want any more women to be close to him because it would lessen her precious time with him.
