Tangled Fortunes: The Enigmatic Son-in-Law Rejected
"Divorce my daughter and this would be yours." A feminine voice said staring into the eyes of the young man in front of her with disdain.She felt repulsed talking to him, but at this moment, she has no other choice but to do so. She was sure he was going to be able to refuse her offer since he needed the money rather badly.Max the young man with handsome features stared at the woman in front of him not knowing what to say. The woman in front of him was his mother-in-law and she was demanding that he divorce her daughter so she would give him the money.Couldn't she have some sense of responsibility? He was going to use the money to save his mother and needed it rather badly, but yet she was trying to make things hard for him.He should have known this since the time she asked to meet him at the restaurant. Max felt his anger boiling but there was nothing he could do about it.He couldn't afford just a million to save his mother who was critically ill and needed the money. The delive
Tangled Fortunes: The Enigmatic Son-in-Law Helpless
Max sighed as he walked into the hospital. He was looking gloomy at the moment and one could see the sadness in his eyes."Mr. Max, I'm sorry, but there's nothing we can do, we'll need to carry out the surgery for her as quickly as possible, it'll be advisable for you to do it before it's too late."The doctor's words rang in Max's ears as he walked along the corridor to his mother's ward. The ward wasn't a big one, neither was it a small one.He had requested his mother to be put here so she could at least have some peace. Even though Max had some problems footing the hospital bills, he never complained.He didn't know how he was going to get the money for her operation, there must be something he could do. But it was helpless, no matter who he turned to for help, they didn't agree to help him because he was poor and was afraid he wouldn't be able to pay back.Max couldn't let his mother die, she had done a lot of things for him. Tears couldn't help but stream down his face when he r
Tangled Fortunes: The Enigmatic Son-in-Law Realization
Max sighed as he came to a realization. Money was everything. Without money, one was pitiful and there was nothing one would be able to do. Without money, one was the lowest in society.How foolish was he to think he could live a peaceful life by just being a live son-in-law, it seems like he was rather stupid for thinking like this. It was because he didn't have any money and his mother-in-law didn't like him.Also, it was the same reason why she had offered him a large amount of money so he could divorce his wife. Also, he couldn't give his wife what she deserved, and never for once had she complained.At this moment Max was feeling guilty, he knew that there was no way he was going to make it without having money. Without money, nothing was going to work out. He was destined to be trampled on by others.He had seen the evils of society and how they treated those who didn't have money. The ones who didn't have money were destined to be trashed and used as the others wished.They had
Tangled Fortunes: The Enigmatic Son-in-Law Call Your president
After about ten minutes, Max was done paying and had filled out all the necessary forms. The doctors assured him that they were going to arrange for the operation as soon as they could.Max sighed as he walked out of the hospital holding the bag of money his wife's assistant had brought for him. Walking to his bike, Max started it and headed towards Cisco company.He might as well visit the company since he had some time left. There was still about an hour left before going to pick up his wife from work.Riding along the highway was such a hassle, but Max was already used to it. In no time, he was already at the company.Looking at the huge building which was one of the tallest buildings in the city, Max felt a sense of complex feeling welling up in his heart. Pushing all thoughts to the back of his mind, he walked into the building."Hey! Stop there!" A hoarse voice sounded just as Max was about to walk into the building.Max frowned and turned around only to see a huge man in securi

At this moment, Ethan was covered in sweat as he watched Max walking out of the building not sparing him a glance. He couldn't help but remember Albert's order not to do anything that was going to displease Max or else he was going to suffer the consequences.Just now, someone had rushed into his office and told him a man named Max Darkwood was looking for him. Immediately, he left what he was doing and rushed down only to see what was happening."You're fired." Ethan gritted his teeth as he pointed at the receptionist and then rushed out to follow Max.The receptionist stood rooted to the spot not knowing what to do. She couldn't believe a man dressed in such a shabby way would have the power to make Mr. Ethan fire her.At the moment, Ethan could care less about his image as he followed Max."Mr. Darkwood, please forgive me and give me another chance." Ethan pleaded as he ran towards Max."I'm sorry, but your time is up already, there's nothing I can do about it," Max said with a rat

Her brain couldn't process what was happening.Max on the other hand had a smile on his face, it was finally time to give his wife all that she deserved. There was no way he was going to let her suffer unjustly again. He was going to Make sure he spent no effort to make Michelle happy.Seeing the gaze on the crowd's faces, he could guess what was happening. Seeing this a smirk appeared on his face as he walked towards Michelle."Shall we?" He smiled holding Michelle's hand immediately he got to her."Yes," Michelle muttered as she nodded weakly."Hey, where do you think you're going?" A yell came just as Max was about to proceed to the car."Where do you think I'm taking her to?" Mark smiled as he stared at Smith."You are just good for nothing, you're not qualified to hold her hands." Smith frowned staring daggers at Max wishing he could take his
Tangled Fortunes: The Enigmatic Son-in-Law Good News
"Can't I come here?" Rachel frowned as she stared at her daughter."Mum, every time you come, you end up wanting to make me divorce Max which is impossible, no matter what you'll say I'll never divorce him," Michelle argued."Foolish girl, who said I'm here to make trouble for you both?" Rachel smiled while shooting Max a disdainful glare.She wondered what sort of sorcery Max had used on her daughter that was making her refuse to divorce a useless man like him.There were young masters of many prominent families she could get married to and live a better life other than living in such a crappy place.Her eyes were full of disgust as she looked around. If only her daughter could be more sensible, then she'll be living a good life instead of living such a wretched life.Well, she wasn't to blame, she could only blame her father who had approved of the two marriages before he died. If only he hadn't given his consent then this wouldn't have happened.Max on the other hand didn't care ab

End
Just as Max and Michelle drove away from the jewelry store, two figures walked out of the alley just by the side.Thank you readers!One was an old man who had a white beard, the other was a young man with handsome features. Both had a kind of aura that made the people around them automatically ignore them."Master, aren't you going to meet him?" The young man asked as he looked at the old man curiously."Jackson, Max is far better off living an ordinary life, there's no need for us to pull him into our chaotic lives." The old man shook his head as he walked away from the place."But master, you said he's a once-in-a-century genius, I'm sure he'll appreciate it," Jackson asked, not wanting to give up.The old man sighed and shook his head looking at the young man, sighing he looked away. After a moment of silence, he said."I know I said that, but that was his mother's wish. He's far better off living as a rich young master.""But he's talented, we've been around for the past few mont

Proposal
"Who wanted to see me?" An arrogant voice came after about five minutes just as the sales girl went to call the manager.Thank you readers!"It's me." Max frowned as he looked at the Manager.Immediately the manager saw Max, his body trembled with fear, what the hell was this devil doing here?Others might not know, but he knew rather too well, that Max was the one who brought down the Nightshade family. Though he didn't know much about the details, the little he knew made him shiver and it was as though he was going to pee in his pants."Come over." Max waved his hands as he said."I'm sorry, Mr. Darkwood, I didn't know you were the one." The Manager immediately ran over as he greeted Max.The expression of the onlookers changed as they watched the scene. Seems like a plot twist was about to happen. Even though the Manager was respectful to Max, they could tell that he wouldn't be so crazy to the point where he would just give him the Fiery Ruby ring for free.It was impossible, if i

This time, it was Max who was driving."Where are we headed?" Michelle sighed as he looked at Max.She wondered why the latter had told her to get dressed and that he was going to take her out today."You'll see."

The next day, Michelle smiled as she helped Max wear his clothes. Since one of his arms was broken, he needed someone to help him do things.Thank you, readers!"Alright, I'll also go and dress up, we should go early to the Court." Michelle smiled as she kissed Max's cheeks before walking out of the room."Young Master, shall we go?" Albert smiled as he walked into the room.He was in a good mood, as he couldn't wait to see the expression on the Nightshade family's face."Since we are going to be in the limelight today, let's delay our going a little bit." Max grinned."Besides, where's the assassin?" Max asked."We'll be taking him along with us to the court, he has a lot of testimony to do." Albert smiled."Is my mother and Amby going?""Yeah, they said they wanted to go," Albert replied."Alright, allow me to take something." Max turned around as he walked towards the drawer.Pushing it open, he fumbled around the drawer for about a minute or two before retrieving a flash drive.Af

Is The Assassination Successful
"Aren't you supposed to be unable to move?" The assassin frowned as he looked at Max who had stood up."That's a question you should ask Hades." Max grinned and punched the assassin's abdomen, at the same time, he raised his good leg and kicked his groin.The assassin couldn't care less about the pain in his body and still tried to escape, but it was too late, he was already surrounded by the men Albert brought along with him.They rushed out of the car as soon as they could and immediately stopped. Nothing could happen to the Young Master."Young Master." Albert cried as he rushed towards Max.Looking at the state Max was, he could see that he was battered, and even his bones were broken.Thankfully, he had thought about this and had invited Dr. Nicholas to go with them. Besides, there was a lot of equipment that could be used to treat Max inside the car."Mr. Albert, I'm afraid we'll have to rush the young master to the hospital for proper treatment. He's poisoned." Dr. Nicholas fro

It's Too Late
The assassin groaned in pain as he was not expecting Max's move. But being a professional, he knew he couldn't allow the latter to gain the upper hand by picking up the gun, it would be game over.Immediately, he kicked the gun with all his strength sending it into the fire burning not far from them. His kick was quite powerful, and that was what ended up happening.Max frowned seeing this, though he wasn't expecting this, he knew he could hold out until Albert and the others would arrive.Without a care in the world, he punched the assassin again, the latter groaned in pain as he moved back.But at the moment, the dirt in the assassin's eyes had already been cleared, now his eyesight had been restored."I didn't expect you to be this sharp." The man grinned as he pulled out a pocket knife.Max frowned seeing this, he knew he couldn't allow the other party to touch him with the knife as he didn't know if it was poisoned or not."Well,. it's just as you've guessed, the knife is poisono
