âYes,â Sanford said with a stern expression.
She had left silently and had Karl remove any evidence of her whereabouts.
At that time, only Karl knew where she was.
It became clear to him that Karl was the one she trusted the most.
This thought upset Sanford deeply.
âWhat will it take for you to stop being upset?â Maggie asked gently.
Sanford looked at her.
The sight of her clear eyes softened his anger slightly.
âTry your best to please me,â he suggested.
Please him?
Maggie bit her lip and gave a small nod.
âFine.
â
Had she agreed? Sanford raised an eyebrow, expecting her to act.

But as he waited, she did nothing.
âWhy arenât you trying anything?â Sanford asked.
âItâs not easy in the car,â Maggie responded.
Sanford gave her a questioning look.
âBut I want you to do it now.
â
Maggieâs ears turned slightly red.
âIâm worried we might have a car accident.
â
Sanfordâs interest was piqued, and his heart was beating faster with anticipation.
âIâm a skilled driver,â he said.
Maggie hesitated, gently removing Sanfordâs right hand from the steering wheel and kissing it.
Sanford was left speechless.
That was it? He was expecting a different kind of gesture!
He thought she might at least kiss his cheek instead of his hand!
The spot where her lips had touched felt cool.
Sanfordâs lips curled into a small smile.
âThat wasnât enough.
Iâm still upset.
â
Maggieâs eyes twinkled.
âThen tell me what should I do.
Please enlighten me.
â
Sanford quirked an eyebrow.
âEnlighten you?â
âYes, like when you showed me how to serve your water,â Maggie replied.
Sanford chuckled lightly.
âYou are quite clever, arenât you?â
