"What did you just say?" One of the executives frowned as he looked at Max, his eyes gleaming with anger."Well then, I don't think there's any reason for you to be annoyed as you hear me loud and clear so there's no need for me to repeat myself." Max shrugged."No, we won't agree with that." One of the executives stood up as he glared at Max."Tell me why." Max smiled."You just came and accused us of knowing about the riot led by the employees. What if we know nothing about it." One of them argued."Well then, let's assume you know nothing about the riot, then why didn't you stand up to put an end to it?" Max frowned.The executives all looked at themselves in shock not knowing what to say. Max was right. They were at the company yesterday and yet refused to do anything.Besides, they had gotten Ethan to come settle it and it had gone out of hand so Max had to come in person which resulted in this.Besides, they had seen how Max had handled it and we're rather shocked at his capabili

"Young Master, do you think it's going to work?" Albert frowned as he looked at Max."Well then, I don't suppose you should doubt it. We should be able to find the mastermind like this. I'm sure he or she won't expect this." Max smiled.Even though he was sure that the mastermind would have already covered up all traces, it was none of his business, he couldn't care less about anything as he was sure there was no way he would be able to cover up all his tracks in such a small amount of time.They had to use the little time they had to make sure they knew who the hell it was. Max was very determined as he had to know who the mastermind was. He wasn't going to let the person escape, not when he was that the person was not far from his reach.Albert smiled and nodded, he could understand the young master's intention and felt quite elated as he knew that the latter had taken things very seriously."Let's go see my father." Max smiled as he got into the car, alongside Albert.Albert smiled

Walking Inside the room, Max sighed as he looked around. It was not as dark as he had expected. Rather this time the light was switched on and even the TV was on and currently, a movie was playing.By his father's side was Dr. Nicholas who was watching the movie with a smile on his face. His father was also watching and he looked extremely happy.Max couldn't help but shake his head as he remembered the good old days when he, his mother, and father would watch movies till late at night and even sometimes the next day.He couldn't help but sigh with emotions as he looked at both of them. Well, then it was all in the past.Besides, he could see that his father was recovering at a very fast speed as all the sick aura on his body had disappeared. His face no longer looked pale and he was finally gaining some weight.Seeing this, Max couldn't help but be happy, he would have blamed himself if his father had died. He couldn't help but thank Dr. Nicholas in his heart as the latter was taking
Tangled Fortunes: The Enigmatic Son-in-Law The Mastermind Strikes Again
"Dr. Nicholas, I would like to thank you for taking care of my father. His recovery rate has exceeded my expectations." Max smiled as he looked at Dr. Nicholas."It's all thanks to you for giving me a chance." Dr. Nicholas smiled as he looked at Max.Max nodded with a smile and didn't say anything. Even if he wanted to say something he had nothing to say."There's something I must report to you." Dr. Nicholas frowned as he looked at Max after being silent for quite some time.Max frowned as he looked at the latter waiting for him to talk. Since he didn't say it in front of his father, it meant that it was something he couldn't take lightly."Yesterday, someone contacted me and said they wanted to strike a deal with me." Dr. Nicholas sighed as he began softly.Max's expression changed upon hearing this and his heart tightened. After calming down a bit, he frowned as he asked."What deal?""Well, the person wanted me to change the treatment method I'm using for your father, all the pers
Tangled Fortunes: The Enigmatic Son-in-Law Bid
"Are you sure this is necessary?" Michelle frowned as she looked at Max who was driving the car with a carefree expression on his face."Don't worry, it's not as though I'm heading there to disturb you, I just want to go along, that's all." Max smiled as he focused on the road.Just now, when he had gotten back home, Michelle told him the executives called her and that the company was participating in a project bid that was worth millions.Naturally, with the scale of the company, the project was very important and thus Michelle offered to go after reassuring the executives that she was going to get the contract.Max then offered to go along with her, at first she refused, but then she agreed as she had no other choice.Max couldn't help but sigh as he looked at his wife, it seemed as though she wasn't interested in asking him for help. Even though he had just bought the company for her and it was in a time of crisis.She didn't ask for his help and directly wanted to do something on
Tangled Fortunes: The Enigmatic Son-in-Law Ohh Dear Sister-in-law
In no time, the company giving out the contract had their eyes on Michelle and began to focus on her as they bombarded her with questions.But then to their surprise, Michelle answered each question rather flawlessly which stumped them out. They were rather shocked by her eloquence as they didn't believe she was from such a company.Even though the company was worth millions, and might be a top leading company if it was taken to Atlanta. Here in North East, most people wouldn't even look at it.It seemed as though the company had some luck as they were able to hire Michelle. Besides, the prestige of the company was going to rise if Michelle was able to get the contract, so it was all balanced.In no time, an hour flashed by, and the bid was completed. In the end, it was won by Michelle much to the shock of the others. But then there was nothing they could do.As long as the company was able to complete the project rather flawlessly, they would have been said to have obtained a powerfu
Tangled Fortunes: The Enigmatic Son-in-Law Call Me Big Brother
"And who are you?" Max frowned as he turned around to look at the figure who had just spoken."Well then, Max I've heard quite a lot about you, you're just as I've heard." The figure smiled as he walked up to Max.The figure was a tall handsome man with a kind of strange temperament which made Max frown as he didn't want to stay near the man for too long."I'd suggest you not believe anything you heard about me. You don't know a thing about me." Max frowned as he looked at the man."Alright, I won't believe it. But how about we go out for a drink." The man smiled as he looked at Max."I don't even know you and yet you expect me to go out for a drink. Do you think that's feasible?" Max frowned as he looked at the figure.From the way Maximus had suddenly become silent since the arrival of the figure, he could tell that they knew each other. Besides, he was sure the person was not someone ordinary as given the level of Maximus arrogance, no one would dare to interrupt his conversation.
Tangled Fortunes: The Enigmatic Son-in-Law We've Found The Mastermind
"Old man, are there any clues?" Max sighed as he looked at Albert."Young Master, we've not been able to find anything, but I think we are quite close," Albert replied.Max sighed as he nodded. It had already been a month since the incident involving Dr. Nicholas. The mastermind had contacted him twice but then Dr. Nicholas had refused firmly.Even though the mastermind didn't issue any kind of threats to Dr. Nicholas, he made sure that the latter stayed at the villa for a week before he was allowed to go home.Furthermore, the news on Dr. Nicholas and his family were guarded heavily to prevent any accidents.Also, Albert had made sure to trace the Mastermind, but then it was as though the mastermind disappeared.Max was confused, but he didn't give up and continued to search as he was sure he would be able to find the mastermind sooner or later.The situation in the company had been stabilized for the time being and there was no further problem.

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

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
