The Enigmatic Son-in-law I stole the phone?
As Zhick hurried towards the hypercar where Max was, the couple continued to taunt Max relentlessly."Look at him, standing there like a statue. Maybe he's too embarrassed to admit he's out of place," the woman sneered."Yeah, probably thinking about how to sneak a picture without anyone noticing," the man added with a smirk.Max stood silently, unfazed by the buzzing flies in front of him. His calm demeanor only fueled the woman's belief that he was guilty, prompting her to mock him even more. "Why so quiet? Cat got your tongue?" she taunted, growing increasingly irritated by Max's nonchalant expression. In her frustration, she attempted to slap him, but Max casually sidestepped, causing her to lose her balance and fall to the ground. The crowd erupted in laughter at her embarrassing tumble.Humiliated, the woman quickly got up and, in an angry tone, demanded, "Why did you dodge?"Max shrugged, replying with a teasing smile, "The fly was too noisy, trying to land on me."The woman's
The Enigmatic Son-in-law He is?
As the woman approached Zhick, she greeted him politely, "Mr. Cloud, are you looking for your missing cellphone?" She handed Max's phone to Zhick.Zhick expression darkened upon seeing the phone, as if he understood the situation immediately. The woman noticed Mr. Cloud's grim face and assumed he was angry. 'Haha, that kid is definitely in trouble,' she thought before speaking."Mr. Cloud, this man here," she began, pointing at Max, "was causing a disturbance and acting suspiciously. He was lurking around, and when I confronted him, I found this phone in his possession. It's clear he stole it, and he was trying to disrupt the event. We wanted to stop him, along with Jaden, to ensure your important guests weren't disturbed."Zhick took the phone, and the woman was eager, thinking she would be rewarded. But instead, slap! Zhick slapped her hard. "Fool!" he cursed before smiling and walking over to Max."Mr. Crownguard, I apologize for arriving late and for the scene you had to endure. A
The Enigmatic Son-in-law Dark Arts
Max parked his car outside the training site before walking into the camp. Upon reaching the training ground, he saw six trainees in the first and second tents, their hair turned white and their bodies weak. Max could tell their life force had been drained."General! Glad you made it on time," Jed said, running towards Max, breathless, fear evident on his face."Where are the three latecomer soldiers?" Max asked immediately.Jed paused for a moment but quickly remembered that Max wasn’t an ordinary person. "General, they’re in the fourth tent. Each of them is holding another trainee, and everyone they touch ages rapidly, right before our eyes. The three become incredibly strong and fast, and we don’t know what happened. They suddenly lost control and attacked those near them. We ran as soon as we saw what was happening, but some still got caught because their speed is far from normal."Max nodded. "Don't worry, they'll return to normal," he said, and in the next instant, he disappeare
The Enigmatic Son-in-law Mom's Second Betrayal
Max calmly walked back toward where Jed stood, still in shock, his hands casually in his pockets. The trainees who had appeared elderly moments ago were slowly regaining some strength. "Rest up," Max said in a calm tone. "Don’t worry, what happened won’t happen again." Without waiting for a response, he continued walking out of the area.Jed, still wide-eyed, watched as the three men Max had questioned suddenly exploded into a dark mist of blood, leaving no trace behind. His mouth hung open in disbelief.Outside, Max climbed into his car and began driving back to the city. As he drove, he dialed Zhick’s number. "Zhick," Max said once the call connected, "I need you to pick up my car and park it somewhere safe. Just bring it back to me when I need it.""Got it, Mr. Crownguard," Zhick replied without hesitation. "I’ll take care of it. Where should I meet you when you need it?""I’ll let you know," Max responded, then ended the call.Max made his way to Zhick’s 4S shop. When he got out
The Enigmatic Son-in-law Notorious Syndicate
As Alexa lay unconscious on the cold floor, Alicia stood nervously in front of the man she now called Mr. Delano, her hands trembling slightly as she watched him survey her daughter with a look that made her uneasy.“You’ve done well, Alicia,” Delano said, his voice smooth but with an edge that sent shivers down her spine. His gaze never left Alexa. “She’s even more beautiful in person than in the photos you showed me.”Alicia forced a smile, trying to hide her fear. “T-Thank you, Mr. Delano,” she stammered, her heart pounding in her chest. “As we agreed, Alexa is yours. I did everything as planned.”Delano turned his cold eyes to her. “Everything, huh?” he mused, stepping closer. “Just remember, Alicia, you owe me for this. No one crosses me.”Alicia swallowed hard, her mind flashing back to that fateful day when she had met Delano. It was supposed to be a simple game of Mahjong, but things quickly spiraled out of control. She had heard whispers about Delano before—rumors of his vast
The Enigmatic Son-in-law Voice from hell
"Fire!" the lead guard shouted in fear, pulling the trigger of his Glock 17.Without waiting for further instruction, the other guards immediately opened fire, the air filling with the deafening sound of gunfire. Bullets rained down on the spot where Max had been standing—but suddenly, he was gone.The guards stopped shooting, stunned. They exchanged confused glances, their hearts pounding. "Where did he go?" one of them muttered, his voice barely audible over the ringing in their ears from the gunshots. They frantically scanned the room, but there was no sign of Max. It was as if he had vanished into thin air.Just as they began to relax, thinking maybe they'd scared him off, Max reappeared right in front of them without warning, moving so fast that they could barely register his presence. "Good evening, gentlemen," Max said calmly, his voice carrying an eerie nonchalance. Before any of them could react, he started handing out casual, almost leisurely, slaps—one for each of them.Sl
The Enigmatic Son-in-law Merciless Demon
Alicia’s heart raced. 'How had Max known about this place?' She never imagined he had people watching over Alexa. The fear growing in her chest wasn’t only directed at Mr. Delano anymore—it was now also aimed at Max. She thought she knew her son-in-law, but now doubts crept in. 'Who was Max, really?' The situation was spinning out of control, and she couldn’t find the strength to speak, knowing full well that Max was far scarier than Mr. Delano in this moment.Max turned his steely gaze to Mr. Delano. “Put my wife down,” he commanded calmly.Mr. Delano let out a mocking laugh, attempting to regain control. “Who do you think you are, kid?” he sneered, calling out for his guards. But no one came. His voice echoed through the room as he called again, still with no response. Delano's face grew red with frustration, and he yelled a third time, sounding more like a seal barking than a man commanding authority.Max stood quietly, letting Mr. Delano shout himself hoarse. His expression was un
The Enigmatic Son-in-law Acquiring a Villa
"Alicia," Max's cold voice sent a chill through Alicia's scalp. "I could tolerate it if I was the one you were targeting. But how can you commit such disgraceful acts, selling your own daughter for a little bit of money?"Alicia trembled, unsure of what to do or say. "This is..." she stammered, searching for words that wouldn’t come. Then, a thought crossed her mind. 'I'm still the mother of his wife. There's no way he'd hurt me. Alexa would surely be furious if she found out.' Gaining a twisted sense of confidence, Alicia's fear faded, and a smug smile crept onto her face. She straightened her posture and felt her arrogance return.She looked at Max with disdain, her eyes narrowing. "So what if you're good at fighting?" Alicia sneered. "What's the point? What does it matter? You think you scare me? You think because you can beat up some thugs, you can control me? I'm Alexa's mother, Max, and no matter how powerful you think you are, you can't touch me. She would never forgive you." A

Grand Wedding
Inside the luxurious fitting room, Max stood in front of a full-length mirror, adjusting the collar of his crisp white tuxedo. The fabric was impeccable, tailored perfectly to his frame, exuding elegance and authority. Today was the day—his wedding day.Leon, leaning casually against the wall with his hands in his pockets, watched with an amused expression. "I never thought I'd see the day, Max. The great Maximus Crownguard, nervous about a wedding."Max smirked as he attempted to fix his tie. "Who said I'm nervous?"Leon scoffed, stepping forward. "You've been fixing that tie for five minutes, and it still looks like a rookie mistake. Here, let me." He swatted Max's hands away and took over.Max chuckled. "I swear, if I didn't know better, I'd say you're enjoying this way too much."Leon smirked. "Of course, I am. It's not every day I see you in a situation where you actually need help."Max shook his head with a small laugh. "It's just a tie, Leon.""Uh-huh," Leon said, tightening t
Proposal
As admiration filled the room, a sudden outburst shattered the moment."Impossible!" Bubbles screamed, standing abruptly. She pointed a trembling finger at Max. "You? You're really the Chairman?"Max simply smiled and shrugged.Bubbles collapsed into her seat, her mind unable to process the truth. "It's over…" she muttered under her breath, completely shaken.Daniel and Eugine wore identical horrified expressions. The realization hit them like a freight train—they had offended Max, and everyone had seen it. Of all the people they could have belittled, why did it have to be him? Of all the people in this grand event, why was he the Chairman? A man they had underestimated, a man whose background they never even considered. No wonder… His unwavering confidence now made perfect sense.Alfred smirked and spoke up, his voice laced with amusement. "Now do you understand why Alexa once said that Max himself is his own backup?"At that moment, everything clicked for them. The memories, the sub
The Man Behind
Whispers spread like wildfire across the ballroom. Some guests exchanged incredulous glances, questioning whether the man standing before them was truly the mysterious chairman. Others furrowed their brows, murmuring about how secretive this supposed leader had been until now.Then, breaking the tension, a man approached the standing figure, offering a polite smile. "Chairman, it's an honor to finally meet you," he said, introducing himself as a representative from a prominent tech company. With a respectful bow, he extended his business card.Before the crowd could react further, another guest boldly voiced the question on everyone's mind. "Are you really the mysterious chairman?"The man scratched the back of his head, looking slightly embarrassed. "Huh? Me?" He let out a small, awkward chuckle. "No, no. I just work here. I was fixing some wires at the hotel earlier, but when the lights suddenly went out, I sat here for a bit. Now that the event's started, I should be heading out—my
The Mysterious Chairman
With no other choice, Bubbles and her group reluctantly returned to their seats. They knew better than to cause a scene now that the event was about to begin. Before turning away, Bubbles shot Max a sharp glare, pointing a finger at him. "This isn't over until you apologize," she huffed, stomping back to her seat with a pout. Eugine and Daniel followed her, their expressions mixed with irritation and curiosity.As the crowd settled down, a distinguished-looking man confidently walked onto the stage. He was tall, well-groomed, and carried himself with the poise of a seasoned professional. Dressed in an impeccably tailored suit, his presence commanded attention. His name was Theodore Wright, a renowned host in high-profile elite gatherings.With a charming yet authoritative smile, he took center stage and spoke into the microphone."Ladies and gentlemen, esteemed guests from the most distinguished families and business empires, welcome to this grand evening." His deep voice carried effo
Pretended to be Poor
Alexa smiled calmly before speaking. "How could Max have done it on purpose when we were in the middle of a conversation?" She then turned to Bubbles, her gaze sharp but amused. "Are you saying my husband has eyes on the back of his head?"Bubbles fell silent for a moment, caught off guard, but quickly regained her composure. "He still did it on purpose!" she insisted. "Max knew Daniel was passing by and deliberately stretched to spill the wine!"Then, with a sneer, she added, "Ms. Alexa, you don't belong with someone like Max. Your beauty and status don't match with a piece of trash like him."At that moment, Eugine stood from his seat and walked toward the scene, his voice dripping with arrogance. "Bubbles is right, Ms. Alexa." He straightened his expensive designer suit, making sure everyone was watching him. "A woman of your caliber—someone with an outstanding background, grace, and influence—should not be with someone like Max, a man with no real lineage or worth."Alexa's lips c
Talent Show
Daniel smirked, swirling the red wine in his glass as he walked toward Max's group. His movements were slow, deliberate—his eyes casually scanning left and right, as if he owned the place.At the table, Eugine's grin widened in anticipation, while Bubbles, barely containing her excitement, let out a small chuckle."Someone's about to get drenched in wine," she whispered.Alfred, on the other hand, sighed, keeping his gaze fixed on Daniel. Something felt off.As Daniel finally reached Max's back, his smirk deepened. He raised the glass, prepared to tip the wine over Max's head—PAK!Max casually scratched his head, his elbow knocking Daniel's arm at just the right moment. The glass slipped, and the entire drink spilled onto Daniel's own suit."Agh! My designer suit!" Daniel shouted in shock.At the table, Bubbles gasped, covering her mouth in disbelief. Eugine's smirk froze, while Alfred simply remained expressionless.All eyes turned toward the commotion. Max slowly turned around, bli
Exclusive Dinner
At San Fernando Pampanga, the grandest hotel in the city, Grand Horizon Hotel, stood resplendent in dazzling lights. Tonight, Crownguard Group had meticulously organized an exclusive dinner night, an event that had drawn the city's elite. The purpose? To finally unveil the mysterious chairman of Crownguard Group.Prominent business figures gathered in the ballroom, their voices a low murmur of speculation and intrigue. Among the notable attendees were:Miguel Vasquez, CEO of Vasquez Shipping Corporation, a titan in the logistics industry.Victoria Tan, the iron-willed owner of Tan Pharmaceuticals, known for revolutionizing the healthcare sector.Samuel Chua, the real estate magnate behind Chua Land Holdings, with properties spanning across the country.Nathaniel Yu, owner of Yu Tech Innovations, a leader in AI-driven technology solutions.Apart from these influential figures, some of the most affluent families had also made their way to the event.

Stepping forward as the Chairman
Caleb's eyes fluttered open, his vision adjusting to the unfamiliar ceiling above him. The memory of Max's punch hit him like a thunderclap. His eyes widened in shock."Damn it!" he gasped, suddenly bolting upright—CRACK.A sharp pain shot through his lower back, making him yelp. "Agh! My back!" He clutched his waist, his face contorted in agony.It was then that he realized something even worse. His once-powerful, youthful body… was gone. He was back to his true, aged self. Not only that, but his strength was completely drained, leaving him as weak as an ordinary human.Caleb's confusion deepened when he noticed the bright, refined surroundings. His palace was nowhere in sight. His brows knitted together as he scanned the room, his mind racing.Then, his gaze landed on Max.Sitting calmly at a tea table, sipping from an elegant cup, Max smirked at him."Yo."A chill ran down Caleb's spine. He clenched his fists, his nostrils flaring as he pointed at Max."YOU—!"Before he could fini
Making him my Servant
As their fists remained locked, Caleb laughed, dark energy pulsating from his body like tendrils of smoke."Is this really your full power, Maximus?" he taunted. "You feel weaker than usual. Did you skip lunch or something?"Max smirked, unfazed. "How could I eat lunch, Caleb? You decided to cause chaos in Pampanga first thing in the morning."Caleb chuckled. "Ah, my bad. I forgot you had cooking duties."Max sighed dramatically. "See? This is all your fault. And for that, I'll make sure you serve me once this is over."Before Caleb could respond, they both vanished, their figures flickering like lightning.BOOM!They reappeared mid-air, their fists colliding once more, sending out shockwaves of golden and black energy. The force shattered nearby stone pillars, and the ground beneath them cracked from the sheer intensity of their clash.CRACK! BOOM!Each exchange was blindingly fast, their forms barely visible to an ordinary eye. Max launched a high kick—Caleb blocked it with his fore
