David and Rebecca frowned as both of them looked up sharply at the figure who walked out into the villa.It was Victor, they had sent him out to distract Max so that he wouldn't be able to do anything. They had told him to use all his skills to make sure to annoy the latter.Yet the latter was back so soon. Besides, he was even the one who got angry instead. It seemed like he had failed instead of succeeding."Victor, why are you so annoyed?" David smiled as he looked at his grandson.He was Alex's son, Rebecca's older brother, but was dead now. He believed it was Micheal who had killed his son on one of his many schemes and thus hated the Darkwood family.Besides, the Darkwood family and his family had been enemies for quite a long time. But then it became even more intended when it was believed that Micheal was the one who killed Alex.Though the Darkwood family had tried to clear this confusion, the old man was listening to none of it and insisted on taking revenge. No matter how mu
(Two Days Later)"Young Master, what's the plan?" Albert sighed as he looked at Max who was sitting on the sofa and didn't seem like he was going to do anything.It had already been two days since the mistress had been kidnapped, yet the young Master acted as though he didn't care. He didn't give out any orders and just sat on a spot not doing anything.He had been trying to talk to him, but the latter wouldn't even talk to him, more or less reply to him, which bothered him a lot. He had thought of a lot of things, but he just didn't know what to do and could only wish the young master could snap out of his daze."Young Master." Albert sighed as he called out of Max again."Old man." Max sighed as he finally turned to look at Albert.Albert couldn't help but breathe in a sigh of relief hearing Max's words. The young master had finally replied to him."What are your orders?" Albert sighed as he suppressed his excitement and looked at Max."What orders?" Max sighed as he looked at Alber
Max and Albert rushed out of the house disregarding their images and immediately got into the car.Steeping hard on the accelerator, the car dashed out of the villa. He wanted to see his wife as soon as he could. Their men had already taken her to the hospital.At the moment, Max couldn't think of anything else. All he wanted was to see his wife. He had completely forgotten about the news Albert had told him. Well then to him he was going to attend to it later.Besides, he was sure that Albert was going to take the necessary steps before ye said anything so now was not the time to dwell on anything. All he wanted at the moment was just to see his wife.In a flash, thirty minutes was gone and the car pulled up in front of the hospital. Max drove at full speed to the hospital, so it was not surprising that he got there quite quickly.On the way, he had attracted the attention of the traffic police but he couldn't care less about it. Albert was going to take care of it, so there was no n
Albert sighed seeing Max close his eyes. Though he did not know what the young master was thinking, he knew that the latter was very angry. Though it didn't show on his face, he could sense it.It was as though a terrifying beast had woken up and he was trying to suppress it. He wanted to call out to the young master to know what was wrong, but then on a second thought, he thought against it and just sat there.He was sure that Max was already himself now that his wife had been found. But then the problems present, how were they going to solve it? It was very complicated, and though it had shaken them a lot, it was not enough to make them go bankrupt."Old man, how did you think this happened?" Max's voice came, bringing Albert out of his thoughts."What do you mean Young Master?" Albert furrowed his brows as he looked at Max.Max shook his head hearing Albert's question, he had already understood how the Nightshade family was able to do all that they had done, but then he was sure th
Max sighed as he got to the door of his father's room. If not for the Nightshade family scheme, then he wouldn't have been forced to introduce his wife to his father.He still had some resentment in his heart toward his father and wasn't willing to introduce his wife to him. But then he had no other choice, if he wanted his wife to be safe, he had no other choice but to introduce her to him.Besides, since she would be staying at the villa, it wouldn't be good if he didn't introduce her to his father.Thinking about all these, he pushed all thoughts to the back of his mind and pushed open the door with Michelle following closely behind.Micheal sighed as he looked up to see who had walked into his room and was quite surprised. Well, then he wasn't that surprised as Max was the only one who would dare barge into his room without knocking.Huh?Micheal froze seeing the figure following Max closely. Wasn't that his daughter-in-law? His son was finally willing to introduce his wife to him
Soon, the car pulled up in front of the company and Max and Albert rushed out of the car into the company.The staff who saw them had confused l look on their faces as they wondered why the two were in a rush. But they minded their business and just greeted them as they passed by them.Eric and Albert nodded as they passed by the workers. They didn't have any intention of ignoring them even though they were in a rush.Soon, the two got to Ethan's office. Ethan who had been in a panic and was pacing around was relieved seeing the two. The problem at hand was too much and it was impossible for him to handle it alone.Though he didn't know why Albert and Max didn't rush over immediately he told them about it, he didn't blame them. They were not like him, they probably had a lot of things to do.Albert had only told him to take care of the problem right after he informed him of the problem. As for when they would be coming over, they didn't specify. This was damn hard, there was nothing h
"What do you think the Darkwood family would do?" David frowned as he looked at his daughter.Rebecca sighed as she opened her eyes looking at her father. They had placed the Darkwood l family under a lot of pressure, but then her father was a bit uncomfortable.But then she couldn't blame him, Micheal was a scheming person and had a lot of tricks up his sleeves. What's more, his son was no better than him, and could even be said that he was even more scheming than him.Even she couldn't tell what Max would do in this situation. Though she could guess, her guess didn't mean that she was going to be correct, there was a huge possibility that she would be wrong."Rebecca." David sighed seeing his daughter lost in her thoughts.Rebecca smiled as she looked up at her father with a smile on her face. She could tell the reason why he was worried. But then it was all useless, no matter what the Darkwood did.They had the core secrets of the family companies, so no matter what they did, it wou
"Old man, I've been considering stealing back the company's core secrets from the Nightshade family?" Max sighed as he looked at Albert.There were dark circles under his eyes showing he didn't have a good night's sleep. He has stayed up almost all night contemplating the fact that he should break into the Nightshade family and steal back the secrets."Young Master, I don't think that's Feasible?" Albert shook his head as he looked at Max who was sitting on the chair and was playing with a pen."Though we have stabilized the situation at hand, I don't think it's the best thing to do." Albert shook his head as he continued."What if you are caught?""Well then, I did consider that which was exactly what had been stopping me. I will need to plan carefully to make sure that I'm not caught, or else, it'll be for naughts." Max nodded in agreement.Albert heaved a sigh of relief hearing what Max said. It looked like the Young Master too had considered the issue well and wasn't just going to
