He rubbed the bridge of his nose before finally speaking.
"Come on, ladies. Can we not turn my office into a battlefield?"
His voice wasn't loud, nor was it particularly stern, but it carried enough authority to instantly cool the situation.
Ruby clicked her tongue in annoyance, though she lowered her weapon.
Natalia folded her arms across her chest and deliberately looked away.
The tension still lingered in the room, thick enough to be felt, but at least neither of them looked ready to tear the office apart anymore.
Max let out another quiet breath.
"And Lady Natalia, please let Lady Ruby finish what she was trying to say."
Natalia didn't respond immediately.
A few moments of silence passed.
The second Ruby noticed that, a victorious smile spread across her beautiful face.
Natalia's eyebrow twitched.
