The Wealth Swap: Reclaiming His Legacy /Christy I.
“Of all the people in the world, why does it have to be your face I get to see first? Please, get out of my sight. I want to have nothing to do with you.”Maxwell scrutinized the lady before him in a dirty look and began to walk away. At that moment, all he felt for Angel was hate and his plan was to exert his revenge when the time was right. However, she ran after him, stopping right in front of him.Maxwell had just been released from prison and was stunned to see that it was the b*tch standing before him. The same woman that had plotted with the Morgans and sent him to where he was coming out from.“Please Max, let me drop you off.” Angel was standing before him and pleading with a sober face. “I know you're angry with me right now. I'm also angry with myself for what I did and I want to make up for it. Let me make it up to you.”“Hmph.” Maxwell's lips curled into a sneer as he chuckled. “You want to make it up to me. Haha. That's really interesting and so nice of you.”Folding

“How did you get this?” Maxwell could not believe his eyes. On his hands were important documents of many assets that had his name in it.“Well, you can start by saying a thank you to me. Maybe after that, the questions may start coming.”Maxwell frowned and turned his face away. “How did you get this documents?” He repeated his question but Angel didn't answer it.“That question is not necessary. What's important now is how to take back all that belongs to you. Look Max, you've been stolen from and cheated for many years. All you should think about now is to kick those criminals out of your properties.”Maxwell was quiet. He was no longer ignorant of the whole thing. In fact, he was thinking so hard on how to take back his parents' legacy. Fortunately, everything had just been made easier for him by the same woman who joined forces with his oppressors and sent him to prison.What was really happening? Maxwell was in a state of bewilderment.He stole a glance at the lady whose gaze wa

“What the heck are you doing here? How dare you show your face here again?” Maxwell watched with his hands akinbo as his ex father in-law yelled in frustration. It was a surprise that he was at home at that time of the day. Maybe he came back for lunch?Rising to his feet, he raced to the door to call security on Maxwell. However, the latter couldn't care less about the man as he went ahead and settled on the sofa.“Honey, I heard your voice from up here. Who are you yelling at?” Patricia Morgan’s voice was heard as she descended the stairs. However, when her eyes fell on Maxwell, she instantly froze and gaped at him for a while.When she managed to regain herself, she yelled at Maxwell. “Who the heck are you and what are you doing here? You should go back to the hell hole you crawled out from now.”Turning to her husband with a very dark expression, she asked him. “Honey, what is this man doing here? You know we don't allow beggars into our house. Who let him in here?”“I let myself

Maxwell was knocked out with a sedative so he won't struggle while being conveyed to the location he was needed.While he was abducted outside the Morgans’ residence, Victor and Patricia who had been inside their car around the place witnessed the incident and were happy.They thought that Maxwell had finally met his match. Maybe an unforgiving enemy who he must have crossed has decided to get back to him. With their faces beaming with smiles, they drove out of the place while Patricia placed a call across to Valerie to deliver the news.Meanwhile, Maxwell was brought to a house with nice furnishings and was left to sleep on the Sofa. When he fell awake, his eyes met with a strange looking man staring down at him.Swiftly, Maxwell jumped to his feet and stood a little distant away from the man. “Who are you and what do you want from me? Why have you brought me here?”Maxwell was anxious as he glanced around the place. It was a beautiful house which was not so big. He decided to check

“Is this some kind of trick? What is she doing here at your house?”Angel stood before him with a warm smile on her face. “I called him and gave him the information that he needed. That was why the men were able to find you easily and at the right place and time.”Maxwell began to fume. He could not believe that Pablo was working with Angel. Why were they working together?He doesn't want to have anything to do with Angel no matter what she did for him. He was just grateful but didn't want to associate himself to Angel.What was she thinking? That he'd just spread his hands open and hug her because she helped him retrieve some documents. That will never happen.Turning to Pablo, he asked furiously. “What is she doing here? Please, make her leave or I'll be the one to leave.”Pablo shook his head disapprovingly. “You have to calm down. Angel is only trying to help. I know everything that happened in the past and I'm not happy about it as well.”“No, I'm not going to calm down. This wom

With the court case being over, Pablo was able to win the case for Maxwell. It only meant that he had taken back everything that Victor took from his father. Maxwell had finally reclaimed his legacy and was now in charge of all of his father's assets including the companies. This left the Morgans at a total loss. They had no choice but to return to their home.When Maxwell's parents died and Victor took charge of his companies, he and Patricia left their little villa and moved to the Hunts’ mansion. Victor became intoxicated by his late friend's wealth and affluence so he did all he could to keep it.All of the late Edward Hunt's loyal staff were sent on their toes.Sitting down on the sofa of his sitting room, Victor propped his jaws on his palm and was lost in his thoughts. He was soon jolted out of his reverie when Patricia tapped his shoulder.“I can't believe something like this will happen to us. How did we get so careless and not change all the names on those documents? What's

Without a word, Maxwell started towards the door and to the gate where the woman was making a scene. It was on his way to the gate that he realized the glass in his hand.Maxwell prayed earnestly that the lady shouldn't be Angel. He didn't want to be forced to call the police on her. Angel had done a good deed for him and he didn't want them to have any more problems.Although he had promised to make her pay for what she did to him. However, he changed his mind when she helped him retrieve the documents he used in reclaiming his legacy. Maxwell was not going to do anything to her again. All he wanted was for the lady to stay away from him.He soon got closer to the gate and saw Valerie already inside. She had managed to force her way in. Stopping in his tracks, Maxwell glanced at the lady before him as the memory of their past together flashed before his face.“What are you doing here, Valerie?” He asked the lady before him as he gaped at her.Valerie was the only woman he ever loved

Maxwell gaped in awe as the car drove out of the place while the few onlookers began to disperse. They were giving him a disappointed look as they left. It only meant that they believed all the rubbish that Maurice had spewed out.Without a word, he turned around and started towards the house. Maxwell was still confused and could not explain what just happened outside. He had just been labeled a homewrecker. Worst was that he could not even say anything. Well, he had nothing to say.Maxwell thought that he had had so much for one day. They could not even let him celebrate properly, his victory in court.“Did he say that his name was Maurice Carter?” Maxwell asked the men with him and they both nodded.“Yeah, I think he's the young master of the Carter family and the current CEO of Carters corporation.” Pablo replied and Maxwell nodded with a mischievous grin on his face. It was surely the reason the Morgans pushed their daughter into a marriage with him. He was a wealthy CEO.Maurice

After a long pause, she opened her mouth and retorted. “Excuse me. Are you now stalking me? The last time I checked, I'm your wife and not a slave or a servant whose movement is restricted.”Angrily, she stormed up and walked some distance away from Maurice. And with her back turned to him, she continued. “I can't believe you no longer trust me. You're now following me around. Do you suspect that I'm cheating on you or what?”“Just answer the question and stop being so defensive.” Maurice snorted coldly. He was so angry for seeing Valerie come out from the house which was now Maxwell's, her ex-husband. For all he knows, she's trying to get back with him because he is now very wealthy.Was he not also wealthy? The Carters are worth millions of dollars so they were also considered rich and influential. They were among the elites in Berlin city.What does Valerie want from Maxwell that he couldn't give to her? Maurice was fuming and tried so much to hold down his anger.Turning his face
