The Enigmatic Son-in-law Superman?
Jed threw a series of wild punches, each one more frantic than the last. The recruits watched, initially sure that Jed's aggressive moves would finally take Max down. But to their surprise, Max, who looked thin and not very strong, easily dodged every hit. With each miss, Max casually gave Jed a light slap on the face, which only made Jed more annoyed."Why can't I hit you?" Jed growled, frustration evident in his voice as he swung again, only to meet air.Max chuckled, sidestepping another punch. "It's all about timing, Jed. You should try it sometime," he teased, delivering another gentle slap.Jed's face was now red and swollen, resembling a ripe tomato. Panting heavily, he paused and asked, "Why are you so quick?"Max grinned, shrugging nonchalantly. "That's what happens when you're kept on your toes by a wonderful wife," he replied with a playful glint in his eye.Jed shot a glance at Harper, his voice rising in disbelief. "Harper! Are you sure he's just your aunt's useless son-i
The Enigmatic Son-in-law Skyline Estates
Max grinned as he watched Harper faint, foam forming at the corners of his mouth. "Get him out of the training site; we can't have anyone fainting here," he ordered. Two men quickly lifted Harper and carried him out of the camp.Turning back to the group, Max asked, "Are you ready for training?" As he spoke, his hair gradually returned to its natural black color."Sir, Yes Sir!" everyone shouted in unison.Max smiled before giving a command, "Form up into squads!"The trainees immediately fell into line, and Max nodded in approval. Then, with a mischievous grin, he reminded them, "Remember our bet? Since you all attacked, you know what's coming."A shiver ran down the trainees' spines as they felt a chill creeping up. Max continued, "Today, we'll be doing double the usual: obstacle courses, endurance runs, strength drills, agility exercises, and tactical maneuvers, all because none of you managed to land a hit on me."A few trainees exchanged frustrated glances, clearly wanting to com
The Enigmatic Son-in-law Ordinary Workers
Max glanced around before asking, "Is it me?" as he pointed to himself.The man looked around before speaking, "Is there anyone else here?""Oh, what do you need, Jasphere?" Max asked, showing no interest."Ah, Mr. Chairman, here are the documents Ms. Cole ordered to be brought and reported. She's not here because—" Jasphere paused, "Wait a minute, I should be the one asking that. What are you doing in the Chairman's office?"Max nodded, "I'm waiting for Leon; he's still in a meeting," he said before standing up from his chair and approaching Jasphere. "Classmate from way back, it seems you've moved up in the world, huh?" he said with a smile before offering Jasphere a seat.Jasphere nodded, "How have you been, Max? I was just lucky to be chosen as a manager. How about you? Why are you in the Chairman's office?" he asked.Max smiled but didn't answer the question, "Have a seat first, we have a lot to talk about. Would you like some tea?"Jasphere nodded, "Thanks, Max. Do you think Pre
The Enigmatic Son-in-law Dark energy again?!
Jasphere stood up straight, almost frozen, "P-President Leon, I'm sorry, my friend and I drank the Da Hong— Da-Da—""Da Hong Pao," Leon said, and Jasphere nodded like a robot, "Yes, President Leon, I'm sorry, this is my fault," he said before kneeling, "President Leon, my friend Max is not at fault. Please, I take full responsibility for this mistake. It was my idea to try the tea, and I should have known better. Please don't blame Max for my actions.""Leon, have a seat and join me for some tea," Max said casually, "Oh, by the way, grab your cup."Jasphere shivered at Max's words, quickly standing up to explain, "President Leon, I'm sorry, my friend doesn't know what he's saying, please don't pay attention to him—""Stand up," Leon said before guiding him to sit in the chair next to Max. Once seated, Leon took a cup, sat across from Max, and poured himself some tea."Leon, keep an eye on when the next stock will be available, and make sure to reserve early. The stock is running low;
The Enigmatic Son-in-law They were here
Max saw about a dozen people in black suits running down the street.Boom!They seemed to have no specific target, exploding randomly wherever they ended up. It was clear that the people in suits were not in control of themselves.Boom!Another explosion occurred nearby, and it seemed they were there just to cause chaos, with no clear purpose for their actions. Suddenly, one of the suited individuals ran toward a child who had fallen in panic. The man, looking like a zombie, was sprinting toward the child, intent on dragging her into his self-destruction.As the suited man neared the child, Max disappeared from his spot and helped the child to her feet. The man in the suit was sent flying after being kicked by Max and exploded at a safe distance, thankfully harming no one."My goodness, are you okay, my daughter?" a woman rushed to the child, "Sir, thank you for saving my child," she thanked Max before leaving.Moments later, the men in black were all gone, leaving only black marks be
The Enigmatic Son-in-law Carshow
After embedding his energy into the three individuals, Max felt more at ease. He assessed their strengths and began crafting personalized training regimens for them. As days passed, the newcomers caught up with the others. They didn't exhibit any unusual behavior, so the training at the military camp continued smoothly.The following day, Max announced a break, as they had been training non-stop for weeks. And the next day, he didn't go to the training ground but instead headed to a car show organized by Zhick Cloud. Upon arriving at the event, he didn't spot Zhick and proceeded inside. Since it was a car show, there were no restrictions on entry, and attendees were free to take pictures. Max dressed casually, as usual, with simple attire.As Max walked through the car show, he passed by each vehicle, taking a moment to glance at the displays. He first encountered the classic cars, like the 1967 Ford Mustang and the 1959 Cadillac Eldorado. While he appreciated their vintage charm and
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

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. The Gonzales family was in attendance
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
Battle of Transformation
Caleb laughed with pride, his voice echoing off the dark chamber's walls. "Magnificent, isn't it?" He spread his arms wide, as if presenting his greatest masterpiece. "I've been working on this little experiment for years. It doesn't even have a proper name yet, and you—" His grin stretched wider, eyes gleaming with cruel excitement. "You, Maximus, will be the first to witness its power firsthand."Max's expression darkened, his jaw tightening. "Tch. You really have a habit of pissing me off, Caleb."Before he could say anything more—"Attack!"Caleb's voice boomed like thunder, and without hesitation, Alexa lunged.She moved like a phantom—fast, precise, and merciless. There was no hesitation in her strike, no warmth in her usually expressive eyes. They were empty, void of life.Max's instincts screamed at him to block, to counter, to fight back—but he couldn't. Instead, he sidestepped just in time, feeling the sharp gust of wind as Alexa's fist barely missed his face."Tch." His eye
