Tangled Fortunes: The Enigmatic Son-in-Law Leaving
"Max, didn't you say the flight is by 2." Michelle frowned as she looked at the watch anxiously."Yes, wifey." Max's voice came from within the house as it sounded like he was doing something."It's almost two, aren't we going to be late," Michelle yelled."Calm down, wifey, we won't be late, the plane will wait for us even if we are late." Max chuckled as he walked out of the room pulling two bags."Wait for you?" Michelle frowned as she glared at Max.In the past two days, Max's boasting skill had reached a new whole height as he even dared to say that the plane would wait for them even if they were late."Won't you take any of your luggage?" Michelle frowned looking at the bags in Max's hands.The bags in his hands were not hers, he had insisted on leaving behind everything saying they would get a new set once they got to North East. It wasn't even after a lot of trouble that she was able to pack some things."Don't worry, I've got it all covered." Max smiled as he put down Michell
Tangled Fortunes: The Enigmatic Son-in-Law Visit
"Young master, we've arrived." Albert's voice sounded jolting Max out of his thoughts.Max looked up at the building they just pulled into and couldn't help but shake his head. It was a big villa and could be said to be the biggest one right after the one next to it which was where his father lived.Well, since he had no plans of living elsewhere, he might as well live here as he didn't want to waste money. His father had built this villa for him at that time saying he should live here even if he didn't want to see him.But Max, being stubborn, didn't listen to him and directly left North East altogether along with his foster mother at that time. Well, there was no use in reliving the past, he just had to focus on the present and leave whatever would be coming in the future to come."Max, don't you think this house is too big?" Michelle frowned as she whispered into Max's ears just as they got out of the car.She hadn't expected the butler to bring them to such a luxurious building. B
Tangled Fortunes: The Enigmatic Son-in-Law Change Everything
The room was a big one and looked rather scanty. Apart from the bed and the desk inside the room, there was nothing else in the room which made Max frown, well then it was none of his business.Looking around, he noticed his father was nowhere to be seen. Frowning slightly, he looked towards the balcony and saw a figure sitting there with his back facing him."Max, you've arrived." Michael sighed as he turned around slowly looking at Max."Whatever." Max shrugged.Looking at his father, it seemed like Albert's words were right, the latter was not getting any better. His condition had become even worse than the last time he saw him. The last time, it seemed like he was recovering.But now, looking at the state the old man was in, it seemed like he was wrong, the old man wasn't getting any better, Esther his condition had become even worse which made Max frown."Max, Albert told me of your conditions." Micheal sighed as he looked at his son.The distance between him and his son was rath
Tangled Fortunes: The Enigmatic Son-in-Law Let's Go
(The Next Day)"Michelle, where are you headed?" Max frowned seeing that Michelle was about to walk out of the villa."I've got an interview today, so I have to be early," Michelle replied.Max's mouth twitched violently hearing what Michelle said. Wasn't his wife a workaholic? They had just gotten to North East and yet she already had a work interview."Which company is that?" Max sighed as he looked at her."Nope, I won't tell you. Goodbye." Michelle shook her head as she walked out of the living room.She was afraid that Max might use his family's influence to make the company she was going to hire her. Even though she didn't know how strong his family's influence was, she was sure that at the very least they would have some say in certain companies.Besides, she was sure that Max was going to know the company as it was rather popular and she didn't want him to help her.Max shook his head seeing his wife's attitude, why couldn't she just be normal for once? Well then it was all ok
Tangled Fortunes: The Enigmatic Son-in-Law Make Them Wait
"Young Master, we've arrived," Albert said to Max who looked deep in thought."I see." Max sighed as he came down from the car alongside Albert.Looking at the huge building in front of him, Max couldn't help but shake his head. This building was probably the biggest in the whole of North East, and even though some could rival it, there were few.In his memories, he was here either once or twice with his father. At that time he could still remember his father making him sit at the meeting and listen to what they were saying as he would be the one to take over the company in the future.Even though at that time, his family's business was yet to expand much, it was still thriving and was a powerful force. Now, he was sure it was a hundred times bigger than he had remembered, meaning it would be a hundred times harder to manage.Now that there was a rift and the business was on a steady decline, he was sure that it wouldn't be an easy job. He had to commend Albert as he was the one who h
Tangled Fortunes: The Enigmatic Son-in-Law Three Days To Switch Sides
Inside a conference room designed luxuriously sat ten men with quite an angry expression as they looked around. They had been sitting for over twenty minutes and yet, Albert was to arrive.What the hell was he thinking? Was it because they had agreed to have a meeting with him that was why he dared to do what he wanted? At this moment, all the ten men dressed luxuriously all had their faces twisted in anger."What bullshit is this!" One of the men who couldn't take it anymore yelled as he stood up banging the table."Tell me, why isn't that old man here!" He continued.The secretary who was with the executives during the time shivered to hear the man's question. How the hell was she supposed to answer such a question?"When I informed them, they said they would be here soon?" She shivered as she replied."They?" Another of the men frowned."Yes sir." The secretary nodded hurriedly, "I saw Mr. Albert with a Young Man in the office.""A young man?" One of the executives frowned."Perhaps
Tangled Fortunes: The Enigmatic Son-in-Law Affinity
"Young Master, where do we go now?" Albert smiled looking at Max as they walked out of the company.He was feeling a bit happy as he liked the way Max had dealt with the executives. Even though he still wasn't sure about what he wanted to do with their information once he got it, he was sure that it would be fun to watch.Besides, the way he had given them the ultimatum was very funny, the executives were not used to being threatened. Though Max had claimed he wasn't threatening them, his words sounded like a threat.Well, he was going to know what would happen in three days. Three days would be when he would be done, but according to his calculation, it shouldn't be up to that."Let's go see my old man, I have some questions to ask him, besides I want to see Ethan, I can't have you following me everywhere. It'll be better if he goes with him." Max's voice came, bringing Albert out of his thoughts."I don't think you'll be able to see Ethan until after three days, I sent him on a litt
Tangled Fortunes: The Enigmatic Son-in-Law Trouble Affinity
Michelle frowned as she looked around, her heart thumping in fear as she didn't know what to do.Just now she had managed to escape and call Max who she was sure would be on his way here. At that moment, she wished she hadn't ditched the guard who had brought her.She had finished the interview today and was probably rejected. This was because the man doing the interview was a lewd man and had requested that he would only give her the job if she could spend a night with him.Out of anger, she slapped him before leaving. Actually, Michelle didn't have a violent temper, but she wasn't able to take it lying down and thus acted the way she did.Leaving the company, she asked the guard to take her to the Heart Blaze Plaza. Then when she got to the plaza, she used the pretext of going to the toilet to prevent the guard from following her around.Then when she was having a peaceful moment, a man suddenly approached her saying he wanted to take her out, which she refused quiet politely.But t

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

Bet
In a flash, two months had passed, and Amby and Ana, Max's foster mother had long returned to Atlanta.Thank you readers!At the moment, it was only the four people inside the Villa, coupled with the maids and others."Old man, we'll be going now." Max smiled as he looked at Albert."Alright take care." Albert nodded as he looked at Max and Michelle who were going out.Max smiled as he walked out of the Villa with Michelle, getting out of the Villa, they entered the car and drove out. 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." Max smiled as he stepped even harder on the accelerator of the car and it shot forward going faster than before.In no time, ten minutes passed, and Max pulled up in front of a jewelry shop. But then at that moment, there were roses all over the Jewelry shop, the red roses were laid in such a w

Verdict
"Having reviewed all evidence presented and heard the arguments from both sides, the court finds that all necessary matters in this case have been sufficiently addressed." The Judge frowned as he read out slowly.Thank you readers!"I hereby sentence David Nightshade to a death sentence by hanging for the murder of seven doctors and their families. And Rebecca Nightshade to life imprisonment and hard labor for attempted murder.""And as for the assassin, he's also sentenced to death by hanging for the murder of seven doctors and their families." The judge passed his verdict as he hit his gavel on the table.Immediately after the judge passed his verdict, the policemen who were stationed in the court immediately moved forward, apprehended the criminals, and escorted them out of the courtroom."Ladies and gentlemen, please rise. The Honorable Judge Smith is now exiting the courtroom. The court is now dismissed." The bailiff said as he stood up.Immediately, everyone in the courtroom sto

Shock
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

Max Is Dead
In no time, it was already two days since the Darkwood family announced Max's death. They had been silent and didn't do or say anything.As for the consideration that the Young Master was murdered, they directly threw it out of the window. They didn't even allow the police to investigate the matter, they decided to let it go.At the moment, in the Darkwood family, Micheal was sitting on the Sofa while watching TV. It had been two days since Max had gone unconscious and yet, he was not awake.Dr. Nicholas had assured him that Max was just tired as such his body was taking this chance to fully recover."Master, the young master has woken up." Albert's excited voice came just as Micheal was lost in his thoughts.Immediately, Micheal discarded his thoughts and stood up following Albert to Max's room.They had taken Max away from the hospital since he wasn't in any form of coma or anything.Walking into Max's room, Micheal smiled as he stood at the door looking at Max who had sat up with t

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

You'll Be Dead Anyway
Watching the assassination Scene, Rebecca, David, and Victor couldn't help but smile. Finally, they were going to get rid of their nemesis. As long as Max would get killed that night, they were sure that they would be able to win the fight.As for what the Darkwood family would do, they couldn't care less about that. There was no evidence whatsoever, besides, they had planned it rather carefully, it wouldn't be a surprise if no one was able to find a loophole in their action.Looking back at the screen, they watched as Max hid in the backseat of the car while shivering. There was no way he would be able to contact the Darkwood family. Even if he was able to, it would take too long before they arrived.According to her deduction, Max was surely going to die, there was no way out. He had to die even if he didn't want to.The assassin also stopped shooting after discovering that he couldn't see Max again. Knowing well that the latter had hidden inside the car, he decided to wait for five
