The news had gone viral and one could say that it had redeemed Max and his company to some extent. Some people online were now sympathising with him, expressing how he was wronged without having any idea of the situation.One could speculate that those saying so were people stationed online by him to make such comments. But there were also genuine Netizens taking his side on this and bashing the ignorant and evil secretary Zane for what he has done. Some could even relate to what happened to Max.Max's stained reputation wasn't completely cleaned up and saved. Because he still had people who doubted him and his sales weren't so perfect. As well as the loss that was still tormenting him. But at least he was taking some steps into redeeming himself. Even if it meant throwing someone under the bus for him. Which was what he was doing and planning on doing some more.He was currently content with the results he was getting from what he did. Sitting down in his office and going through the
Keeping up with his part time job was a hard one. Especially When the boss doesn't even appreciate him for his effort.Being a cranky person in general, Leo's boss doesn't even miss a chance to talk down on him for every little thing."Why are you standing there doing nothing? Haven't you cleaned up the plates to be used to serve the customers?""Why are you dilly-dallying? don't you know you should hurry up and serve the Customers?"Leo couldn't tell exactly why it was so, but it already seemed that His boss had an automatic hatred towards him.Always wanting to exploit his efforts to do more and still bash him for making the slightest mistake of all. Leo didn't seem to be the type to bother talking back easily..He lived with it.The sound of the shattering plates from the kitchen was something which had now gotten the attention of his boss.Shocked, his boss had rushed over to the kitchen to see what it was all about now.Leo was on the phone and what he was hearing over the phone
Leo stared at her.. He didn't seem to like where this was heading to, Certainty because he felt that something was off.Having stayed with his Mother-in-law for while now.. He hadn't once had a pleasant memory of her..This woman sitting before him was a thorn to him and his Married life in multiple ways.He had only come to her out of his desperate situation to save his foster mother after all."And what is the condition you're trying to impose?" He questioned as Her mother in-law smiled.Her Mother in law had got out a file and pushed it across the table for Leo to see. It got to Leo's front as he slowly picked it up.Reading through the content, he was simply shocked at what he saw. "This is...""Yes it is. Divorce my daughter and get out of our life..Then I'll happily give you the money"Leo slowly looked up at her. Although he had known her for being a Thorn, this was actually the first time she had made such baffling request openly to him."And what's this supposed...""Can't you
Leo was beyond speech. He couldn't believe the level of being shameless which his Mother-in-law had ascended to. He had known her to be a cheap person, but not certain cheap to this level.This woman was literally selling her daughter for money and wasn't even wavering at the thought. Rather she was proud of her decision."I can then rest assured once it's you my future son-in-law. Unlike someone who Obviously can't offer anything solid, I know you can certainly take care of us. All that's need to be done is marrying off my daughter to you and all is done! So you... Don't waste my time and sign this""What do you think you're saying.. Ma'am?" Leo was too shocked at her mentality that he had to ask "Don't you know that you're selling off your daughter like this?"Leo was too offended that he continued lecturing her "This isn't right Ma'am. How can you do such a thing like scooping so low to selling off Your daugher all because of money? That's a disgusting thing to do"Mrs Watt now See
Leo had Called the line which didn't hesitate before someone picked up from the other end of the line."Hello? Who is this?" The male voice from the other end of the line questioned. Leo recognized the voice without hesitation.It was The senior butler of his Grandpa. He couldn't believe he was still working under his grandpa till this day..How loyal, he thought."Hello, It's me." He said Causally."You are...?" The senior butler was trying to understand who it was."Leo. The Grandson of Grandpa Ellison" He explained as the senior butler almost had his jaws dropped!He couldn't believe whom was calling him that he almost went down on his knees in shock even without Leo being presently there."Oh dear! Young Master! You actually Called. Oh gosh I never imagined you would." The senior butler was stunned. He never imagined he'd call back and therefore wasn't ready for this.But on the end while he was overjoyed by him calling, The senior butler hoped he was calling with an expected good
Leo couldn't understand what was happening at the moment.. He had inserted the card once again and it had said the same thing!The doctor had sighed with the belief that his hunch was right. He didn't believe that he could get the money quickly."What's... what's wrong.. with this...I'm sure it was sent" Leo was more confused than anyone. He couldn't believe his card wasn't working or something?"Let me try..." He requested again."Please sir! if you don't have the money you can go and get it. You have the time to do so, because when you do so then we shall begin the surgery." The doctor explained."But... I'm sure about the money..let me.." "Please sir we can't waste time with this. The card is clearly invalid. I don't know the trick you're trying to play but please know that I'm busy and have other patients to attend to. So don't disturb me and go get the money"Even if the doctor was trying to sound so nice, It was pretty much Obvious from a point of view that he was literally ann
They were jerks. Annoying jerks who only knew how to be jerks. This was the thought that flashed through Leo's mind as he walked pass them and headed into the Manager's office.He had just walked in when the manager looked up at him. Leo had realized that the manager wasn't the only person in there. It also happened that the security man was there."I don't have enough time to waste so you better clarify yourself now and say the truth so the case doesn't get dragged. How did you get the money?" The manager inquired, glaring coldly at Leo."I Said it and I'll keep saying it yet again. Someone gifted me the money and there's nothing more to it. If you don't believe me don't you think you need to dig more into it other than questioning me like a criminal?" He questioned the manager."You even Still have the guts to talk in that manner even in such situation. What a joke. Don't you know that you can be sent to jail from here and there you'll he investigated? That's why the security man i
Leo raised an eyebrow as he stared at the smile on the man's face.He was already expecting it, so he wasn't surprised at all.The jerk of man continued " If you agree to It and give me half of the money. Then I won't follow this case any further, Rather I'll end it quietly as if nothing happened..You leave with half and me half. Everyone's happy "Leo Sighed "Isn't that... wrong? I mean I know that I didn't do anything wrong to get this money which was rightfully obtained...""Damn who cares about right and wrong? And who even cares if you got it legally or not? The ball is in my court now and I can spin the narrative as I please..If I tell them you illegally obtained it, all will believe it and you'll end up in jail"He was smiling while staring at Leo "You can accept and give it to me. we make a deal that no one will know about and then... You leave. It'd be a wise choice of yours, Other than heading to jail, right ?"Leo stared at him "Are you being for real now?""Do I look like
