"Mr. Darkwood, if I may ask, what is it that you want?" Henry forced a smile as he looked at Max who was sitting crossed legs and was sipping his tea.Along the way, he had tried asking Ethan what the young master wanted as Ethan had already told him Max's identity. But then the latter had refused to tell him anything saying Max was going to say it himself."I can sense that Mr. Henry is nervous." Max smiled after an unknown period.Henry could only force an awkward smile as he was surely nervous. What if what Max wanted was something he couldn't afford and he was unwilling to listen to any excuse?How was he going to deal with him? Even though Ethan had assured him that the young master wasn't an unreasonable person. He still refused to believe it."Don't worry Mr. Henry, I wouldn't force you to do what you don't want." Max's voice came, interrupting Henry's train of thought.Henry couldn't help but sigh in relief, even though he was still quite doubtful, he still couldn't help but b
"Here you are, Max." Michelle smiled immediately after Max approached her. She had just finished her work and was waiting for him so that they'll have a meal together.She was really happy that Max had gotten a job at such a prestigious company. Even though the company was not worth too much, at the very least, it was better than the work he was doing before.Now, she wouldn't have to face the ridicule of her mother and other family members which made her sigh in relief."So which restaurant are we going to?" Max smiled, staring at Michelle's beautiful face."That's kind of hard to say." Michelle frowned as she appeared to be deep in thought.She couldn't possibly take Max to a low-level restaurant nor could she go to a high-level one. She didn't have that kind of money, the salary her mother gave her was quite the lowest in the company.If not for the fact that she felt that she was going to starve to death, she wouldn't have given her anything. It all started three years ago when sh
"Max, what's wrong?" Michelle frowned, snapping out of her thoughts when she noticed Max's strange actions.But then she didn't get any reply from Max. It was as if he had been transported to another place as his eyes were fixed on a spot.Frowning, she looked at where he was staring only to see his bike crumpled up in a corner. In the place where the bike was supposed to be was a Mercedes Benz."Ahhh!"Michelle couldn't help but gasp using her hands to cover her mouth. What the hell was the person who had done this thinking?She couldn't help but feel angry towards the person. But then looking at the car in place of the bike, she knew whoever had done it wasn't to be messed with. The car was worth over a million."Max, where are you going?" Michelle frowned, pulling back Max who was about to walk forward."Going to ask for an explanation of course.""No, you can't." Michelle shook her head. At this moment, her heart was racing wildly, she knew Max rather too well. She was sure he was
(The Next Day)"I'm off to the office, the taxi I ordered is waiting for me outside." Michelle smiled as she rushed out of the house after bidding Max goodbye."Take care wifey," Max yelled at the disappearing figure of Michelle.He was still in high spirits, yesterday's night was quite a memorable night for him. Even though he didn't get to do anything, he was able to hug his wife to sleep. It felt quite good.Well, he was sure that in no time, Michelle was going to open up completely to him and the facades she put up would be gone. He could tell how much she loved him even though she always pretended she didn't.Pushing the thoughts to the back of his mind, he hurriedly finished his food. He still had some things to do so he couldn't stay at home all day long.In no time, he was done dressing up and was out of the house. But then there came a dilemma, he didn't know where to head first.Even though he had some business with Ethan, he didn't want to go now, he was quite sure Ethan wo
The young man frowned hearing the voice and turned to look around. Immediately, his gaze came in contact with Max who had his hands in his pocket and was walking towards him like he was taking a stroll at the pack.At the moment, he couldn't help but frown. Where the hell did this man come from, he was wearing such cheap clothes and yet he had the mind to say such a big word. It seems like the world had changed."Thanks for the help, you may leave, don't worry, no one would be able to do anything to you." Max waved his hands at the truck driver.Immediately, the driver started the truck and drove away before anyone could come back to their senses.The crowd was in awe as they didn't understand what was happening. But then they weren't fools, a poor guy was challenging a second-rich generation. Well, it was going to be a sight to behold.They couldn't wait to see how it was going to develop. Well, they could already guess the end. The poor guy would be suppressed by the rich guy and he
"Which type of car would you like to buy sir?" One of the sales girls smiled as she approached Max.All the sales girls had witnessed what happened earlier, so they were afraid of talking to him. It took a lot of courage from the sales girls who had approached him."Which kind of cars do you think would be best for a female?" Max frowned as he was in a dilemma.He hadn't considered which kind of car he was going to get for Michelle and had just walked into the store without thinking about it."We have Mercedes Benz and some other products, I'll show you around if you want." The sales girl replied while gulping down some Saliva.The pressure Max had on her was quite great and she felt her legs shaking. She could feel the gazes of the others on her while they attended to the other customers. She could tell that they were mocking her as it didn't seem like Max was going to get a car.If it was not because of what had happened outside just now, they would have already ridiculed him and or
"Just who are you?" Max sighed suppressing his anger as the lady in his front might be someone he knew."Since you don't remember me anymore, I wouldn't mind introducing myself once again." The lady smiled as she stared at Max."I'm Rebecca Johnson""Rebecca?"Max gasped upon hearing the name. He didn't expect to meet her here of all places. Back at the college, she was one of those who had always ridiculed him and told him that he wouldn't be able to make it in life.But since he didn't put them in his eyes, it was normal for him to forget about someone as insignificant as her. Well, he could be less bothered about her, besides, his life was much better than hers."So now, you know who I am." Rebecca's voice came pulling Max out of his thoughts."I didn't expect to meet you here out of all places." Mark smiled as he stared at her."You know I didn't expect you to be doing well yourself." Rebecca sneered as she stared at Max, the disdain in her way was rather evident."What are you do
"Sir, we've arrived at your destination." The driver smiled, turning around to look at Max who seemed deep in thought.It was already the evening of the next day and Max was headed to the Four Seasons hotel to have a meal as he was incredibly hungry right after running some errands for his wife.The car store had yet to deliver the car to his wife because he had asked them to make sure to complete all the processes before presenting it to her so it was going to take some days."Ooh," Max muttered as he was forcibly brought out of his thoughts by the driver, "Thanks, old man." He continued as alighted from the taxi before paying the man.Looking at the huge building right in front of him, a smile appeared on his face as he walked into the hotel."What a coincidence?" Max muttered under his breath just as he walked past the lobby.He could see that the parking lot of the hotel was full and there were still incoming cars. It was then Max remembered what Ethan told him some days ago."It
