Chapter 60

In no time, Melissa came out of the bathroom wearing a simple pair of jeans, a white shirt, and white sneakers. Her hair was let down, and she looked beautiful and youthful. "How do I look?" Melissa asked with a smile.

Maxwell tilted his head when he heard Melissa's voice, and his eyes fell on her. A smile built up on his lips. "You look beautiful as always," Maxwell said as he walked towards Melissa. "I will have to blindfold you now," Maxwell said, making Melissa pout her lips.

"Why? I don't like surprises. Just show me already," Melissa said.

Maxwell pulled Melissa towards him and hugged her from behind. "Trust me, baby doll. I'm not a serial killer. You will surely love my surprise, okay?" Maxwell whispered in Melissa's ear, sending an electric current through her spine. Her heart was beating so fast.

"I don't have a choice but to trust you," Melissa forced the words out of her mouth, trying to sound as normal as she could.
