Chapter 310 Is That a Threat?
“Someone mature and reliable,” Jade answered.
Max smiled lightly and rubbed his nose, saying helplessly, “Doesn’t sound like me.”
“I honestly don’t know why you’d like me, Max. You can have any woman you want. You don’t have to
spend your time on me.” She didn’t think that Max would actually like her. At most, it was just a crush.
Flirtatious men like him typically only ever felt that way.
Max understood what she was implying, but he stood firm. “Do you think I’m just messing with you?”
Jade said nothing, but her eyes told him everything he needed to know.
“Would you believe me if I said that I was serious?” Max smiled bitterly. If he had known that those.

Jade shook her head, looking solemn “It doesn’t matter. I don’t care. I don’t know if Jenny has told you
this before, but I’m a divorcee.” She had no intention of starting a relationship at the moment, so she
didn’t mind letting Max know about her failed marriage. She just wanted him to give up.
Indeed, Jenny hadn’t told him, but Max had his suspicions. The news didn’t caught him by surprise. “So
what if you’ve been divorced?” he asked, smiling nonchalantly. “I don’t care.”
“I’ve gone through a divorce, and I’m way older than you. I just don’t understand why you like me.” Jade.
couldn’t fathom it at all. Max was the president of his company, and he could have any young, beautiful
woman he wanted. It just didn’t make sense for him to like her.
“It’s not like I can control my feelings.” He was frustrated too. He noticed he had paid more attention to
her when they first met, and he couldn’t help it. Later on, he found out that this was how it felt to fall in
love.
It wasn’t something he could control.
Jade knew she couldn’t convince him, so she said bluntly, “Don’t waste your time on me. I’m not
interested.”
“You’re being too harsh. Aren’t you going to give me just one chance?” Max was exasperated. How could
he handle it if she rejected him outright?
Jade glared at him. “No.”
“Alright, alright. We’ll still be friends, even if you won’t give me a chance. We can still go out for meals,
can’t we?” He was persistent.
Jade shook her head, knowing full well his intentions. “I’m busy. I wouldn’t have the time to eat with you.”
“Well, I’ll reconsider that thing about your brand entering the market, then.” He smiled, looking at Jenny

Jade was furious. “Is that a threat?”
“Yeah” He didn’t deny it. He had always acted unscrupulously. As long as he got what he wanted,
nothing else mattered.
Jade gritted her teeth She had to reign in her anger. “The business deal is already made. You can’t go
back on your words.”
“That depends on you.”
Jade took a deep breath. She had to bear with it. Once the deal was signed, Max wouldn’t have the
chance to rescind it. With that thought in mind, she nodded. “Alright. It’s just a meal. I wouldn’t have
anything to lose.”
“That’s right. We’re all friends. A meal or two wouldn’t hurt.” Max smiled brightly after hearing her
response. He didn’t care if she was silently cursing him.
