The Enigmatic Son-in-law Misfortune
"Vivian, I know you are a good friend of my wife, so as a gift, I hope you don't take offense at the position assigned to you. Don't worry, this position is based on your abilities and you are qualified for it," Max said casually. "And don't tell anyone who I really am," he added."Why don't you want to tell Alexa that you are the chairman of Crownguard Group?" Vivian asked curiously after recovering."It's not the right time yet, and it's a long story," Max said before taking another sip of tea, "but I hope Vivian will keep this secret," he said with a smile.Vivian couldn't make sense of what was happening, but she simply nodded. Max smiled before gesturing that he could leave.Vivian left the room, still unable to digest the truth in front of her. She slapped her face and felt a pang on her cheek, 'damn, it's real,' she whispered to herself before walking away....Below the office, outside the conference room where the interview was taking place."Ms. Cole, it's your turn," called

Leon approached Max, "Max, this is the new tea that arrived, try it," he said before placing the tea cup on Max's table."President Leon, what is happening?" Shantal asked, confused.Leon turned to look at Shantal, "What's happening? I'm serving tea to the chairman," he said with a smile before sitting back down.Alice also poured tea into two cups before handing one to Leon. They both smelled the tea and said, "Hmm," savoring the aroma. They took a sip and simultaneously exclaimed, "So good," showing happy smiles on their faces."What is happening?" Shantal asked again, still not understanding the situation.Alice looked at her, "We are having tea; this is the one the chairman bought, just arrived from the United Kingdom," Alice explained before pouring another cup and offering it to Shantal. "Sit down and try it," she said, inviting Shantal to take a seat.Shantal didn't know what was going on, but she sat down, took the tea, smelled it, and her eyes widened at the fragrant aroma. S

"Godfather, why did you summon me?" The man asked as he entered and saw Hemmer.Hemmer caressed his hand lightly, "Godfather just have a small favor to ask." He said with a smile."What is it?" the man asked."Let's talk about it later, let's have lunch first," said Hemmer, ready to lead the man to the table, but suddenly Danica interrupted, "Darling, is this your godchild?" she asked with a smile.Hemmer nodded, "This is Miguel, my godchild, one of the front guards of the Axe Gang, they are the bosses of the members guarding the gate," he proudly said."Ah, this is my little godmother," he said with a smile."I heard that your former leader has returned more powerful than before," said Hemmer.Miguel smiled, "thanks to someone's help, he is the one behind the former leader, so he regained his position, with his help, the operation of Axe Gang returned to normal," Miguel clearly showed admiration in his eyes while mentioning this. Hemmer and Danica were surprised, they didn't expect
The Enigmatic Son-in-law Curse and Formation
Max walked towards the entrance, but he was stopped by a guard watching over the gate of the villa."Stop!" commanded the guard."I am here to check on the condition of Ms. Gonzales," calmly stated Max."Check on her? Are you a doctor?" the guard asked before laughing."I am not a doctor, but I have knowledge in medicine," reassured Max.The guard looked up and down at Max, noticing his old attire, and grinned. "Do you see those going in and out? They come from different parts of the world, many of them are graduates of prestigious universities. And you? A young one who doesn't even know where he came from wanting to examine the young miss of Gonzales? Are you joking?" taunted the guard."You won't know unless I try," calmly replied Max, unfazed by the guard's laughter.The guard burst into laughter, "Even professional doctors cannot determine the condition of the young lady. What makes you think you can?""What concern is it of yours whether I have the ability or not? Shouldn't the e

"I admit you have knowledge, but not enough. Now as an elder, allow me to teach you so you can learn from me.""I see potential in you, I can make you my dedicated disciple," said the old man, letting everyone know that he was ready to accept Max as his student to mold.He didn't mention that he might have already been surpassed by someone younger than him. Max remained silent, waiting to see what the old man was up to. The old man turned around to face the young lady, approached, sat next to her, and held her pulse before standing up."As expected from the disciple I will take, everything he said is correct. This is indeed a Soul Imprisoning Formation curse. Perhaps the young lady unintentionally triggered it, hence the curse latched onto her," explained the old man before smiling."The first five hours there will be the initial symptoms, suddenly losing consciousness and no other traces to be seen.""If I am correct in my understanding, the people who first examined the lady said th

"This method has long been lost, but the last time I saw it was during the time of war, five years ago. It was made by a person who also saved the country, that person was the legendary hero and only high-ranking military officials knew him. He is more known as the Legendary General," Cris recounted while Max performed the method. "The Legendary General?! The one who defeated three countries with just a hundred soldiers under his command?!" exclaimed someone upon hearing the name. "I witnessed it during that time but I didn't see the person's face because he was far away and wearing a mask. I only know that his hair is white, I'm not sure if that person was young or old," said Cris shivering as he looked again at that legendary method. "That person is one of the reasons why I continue to practice medicine, why did I forget my purpose in this moment?" said the old man, unable to hold back his tears, filled with regret for forgetting his reason for building his reputation. He kneel
The Enigmatic Son-in-law Charity Auction
"What?!" Max suddenly exclaimed, surprised.Eric chuckled, "My beloved granddaughter, do you like him?" he asked.Eliza blushed like a cute little girl, "He's handsome, grandpa, and very humble. He's not like other men who only know how to have fun. He also saved my life, so my life belongs to him now," she shyly said."Sorry, but I'm already married," Max quickly replied.Eliza frowned before thinking, "In that case, you can be my big brother."Max nodded, "Okay, my little sister."Eliza happily approached Max, hugged him, and said, "I'll just call you brother Max, thank you for saving my life." She happily let go of Max and sat beside her grandpa.Max didn't pay much attention to this as he only saw Eliza as a little girl. Eric laughed, "I'll just call you Max too, because now you're the brother of my grandchild and since you're the benefactor, you're also part of the Gonzales family. From now on, no one will dare to harm you in the whole of Pampanga," Eric laughed happily and then
The Enigmatic Son-in-law Battle of Martial Artist
"Tch! This old man," Eric said before standing up from the chair."Brother Max, you are going to watch an exciting match!" Eliza said with a smile."What does that mean?" Max asked, not understanding. 'Someone is causing trouble, and there's still an exciting match?' he thought.Eliza did not answer but showed a strange smile, "Let's follow grandpa," she said before standing up and pulling Max to follow outside the villa.Outside, they saw an old man with a long white beard standing proudly with his hands behind his back, next to him a big man with a large body beating the Gonzales guards.Upon seeing the guards lying down and writhing in pain, Eric couldn't help but frown, "This old dog Jimmy Cruz really doesn't know the word defeat," Eric said as he saw the big man with Jimmy.Upon seeing Eric emerging, Jimmy grinned, "This time, you will be defeated. Do you see your dozen guards? They are no match for my new pet," he boasted, pointing at the heavily armored guards on the ground."W

"Zoren!" Sean yelled as he watched Zoren suddenly collapse and vomit blood. Fear and confusion swept over Zoren's men, their faces pale and their bodies trembling as they took cautious steps back.Max walked forward with a calm expression, his footsteps echoing in the silence. He crouched slightly and delivered two sharp slaps to Zoren's face.Slap! Slap!The force was just enough to jolt Zoren awake. He groaned softly, blinking in disorientation as he held his reddened cheeks. When his vision cleared, he saw Max standing over him, a faint smile playing on his lips.Zoren's eyes widened in realization. His expression shifted rapidly from confusion to fear. Without hesitation, he dropped to his knees, bowing his head low."B-Boss! Master!" Zoren stammered, his voice shaking with genuine fear and submission."What?" Sean blurted out, utterly dumbfounded by the sight. He took a step closer, his expression filled with disbelief. "Zoren, what are you doing? Why are you kneeling?"The rest

Zoren's glare could have burned a hole through Max, but it only seemed to amuse him further. Max let out a relaxed sigh, pointing the branch at Zoren like a teacher scolding a stubborn child."So, are we done here, or do you want me to embarrass you even more?"Zoren clenched his fists, but there was hesitation in his eyes now. His men groaned on the ground behind him, holding their bruises and glaring at Max with disbelief and fear.Sean, watching from the sidelines, swallowed hard, his earlier excitement replaced by unease."Y-You're a freak…" Sean muttered under his breath.Max grinned, resting the branch on his shoulder. "No, Sean. I'm just someone you shouldn't have messed with."Sean's face twisted in anger as he laughed maniacally, trying to muster his courage. He took a step forward as if to charge, but his confidence faltered when his eyes darted to Zoren's men writhing in pain on the ground. His movements stilled, his earlier bravado replaced with uncertainty.Zoren let out

You're Still a Long Way
Max stood still, a faint smirk on his face as the first thug rushed at him, throwing a wild punch aimed directly at his jaw. With a slight tilt of his head, Max avoided the blow entirely, his feet never leaving their spot.The thug blinked, confused at how effortlessly his attack was dodged. Another man immediately charged in, this time aiming a kick at Max's side. Max merely shifted his torso, letting the kick slice through empty air."Is this all you've got?" Max asked, his tone light and mocking.Frustrated grunts came from the group as another thug swung a metal rod, aiming to hit Max's shoulder. Without breaking a sweat, Max leaned backward, the rod missing him by mere inches. The attacker stumbled forward, thrown off balance, and Max didn't even glance at him."Hey, careful with that thing," Max teased, his voice laced with sarcasm. "You might hurt someone. Maybe even yourself."The thugs exchanged nervous glances but steeled themselves. Two came at him simultaneously—one aiming

Scared Bully
After resolving the commotion, several students approached Max, expressing their admiration and gratitude."Thank you for standing up for us," one said earnestly."That was amazing! You were so cool back there!" added another, their voice filled with awe.Max simply nodded, offering them a small smile before turning to check on Rose and Lily, who had just come down to meet him.Rose and Lily hurried over, concern and curiosity etched on their faces."How did you get there so fast?" Rose asked, still puzzled by Max's sudden appearance earlier.Max shrugged nonchalantly. "I came down earlier and waited for the right moment. You just didn't notice because everyone's attention was on Oscar," he explained casually.Lily nodded, impressed. "Oh, so that's how it was. You're amazing, though," she said, her admiration clear as a slight blush crept onto her cheeks.In truth, Max couldn't reveal that his movements were faster than an ordinary human's, making it seem like he had teleported. He si

My Butt!
The thugs regrouped, their expressions a mix of frustration and embarrassment. Oscar barked at them angrily, "What are you waiting for? Get him!"One of the thugs muttered under his breath, "Easier said than done…" but they all hesitated before reluctantly charging at Max again.This time, Max tilted his head slightly, as if deciding on something. Then, with a swift movement, he sidestepped the first thug, delivered a light tap to the back of his head, and followed up with a playful smack on the thug's behind using the thug's own bat.The thug froze mid-motion, his eyes wide in shock. "What the—did he just…?"Before he could finish, Max spun around to face the second thug, dodged his clumsy attack, and gave him the same treatment—a loud smack to the rear.The sound echoed across the courtyard, followed by stunned silence and then an eruption of laughter from the students watching from the buildings above."H-he's spanking them!" one student burst out, clutching their stomach.Even Ros

Your Girl?
Before Rose's tears could fall and before Lily's anger could fully erupt, they both froze at the sight in front of them. Their expressions shifted to one of shock and disbelief.Oscar noticed the change on their faces and assumed they were overcome with fear. With a smug grin, he turned to look at the teacher, expecting a lifeless body. But as he turned, he froze in place.Standing in front of the teacher was a man, holding the baseball bat with his hand. It hadn't landed on the teacher. Instead, it had been stopped effortlessly, as if it weighed nothing.Oscar's eyes widened in shock. "Who the hell are you?!" he barked, his voice laced with confusion and anger.The thug who had swung the bat staggered back, fear plastered on his face. He knew how sturdy that bat was—yet the man holding it didn't seem fazed at all. Before anyone could react further, the man clenched his fist and crushed the bat into splinters."W-what?! How is that possible?!" one student whispered in disbelief."Wait

Brutal Force
From the front doors of the campus, a large figure emerged, stepping purposefully into the chaos. It was one of the PE teachers, a man with a stout build and a noticeable belly, but his stern expression and commanding presence made it clear he wasn't someone to be trifled with. "What's going on here?!" he bellowed, his voice echoing across the courtyard. Oscar glanced at the teacher with mild disinterest, a smug grin plastered on his face. "And who's this?" he mocked. "The campus babysitter?" Ignoring the jab, the teacher stopped a few feet away from Oscar's group, crossing his arms. "You're on private property, causing a disturbance, and endangering students. Leave now, or I'll call security and the police." Oscar chuckled, leaning lazily against his bike. "You think I'm scared of you or your little threats? Nah. We're here for Rose, and we're not leaving until she comes down." The teacher's eyes hardened, his patience wearing thin. "Violence has no place here. You're tresp

Max, Rose, and Lily returned to their classroom for their next lecture. The students filed in, taking their seats, while Max casually walked to his desk, drawing subtle glances from almost everyone.As the professor prepared to start the lesson, a few of their classmates approached Max, their curiosity evident."Hey, Max," one girl began, shyly tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. "Where did you transfer from?"Max looked up, his expression calm yet inviting. "A small town in the province," he replied with an easy smile.Another girl chimed in, her cheeks slightly pink. "Is it true you're on a scholarship? That must mean you're really smart!"Max chuckled softly, shaking his head. "I just try my best, that's all."The casual humility in his voice only seemed to endear him further to the girls, who exchanged excited whispers as they walked back to their seats, their faces flushed and hearts racing.Meanwhile, Lily slumped in her seat, her chin resting on her hand. She glanced at Ma

However, several moments passed, and Lily still didn't feel the impact of the punch. Slowly, she opened her eyes, only to see Sean's fist mere inches from her face, frozen in mid-air. Her gaze shifted, and there was Max, holding Sean's wrist effortlessly, his expression calm yet resolute.Badum!Lily's heart skipped a beat as she took in the sight of Max. He looked undeniably handsome, his calm demeanor contrasting sharply with Sean's rage. ‘He's so hot,' she thought, her hand reflexively clutching her chest to steady her suddenly erratic heartbeat.Max sighed softly. "You're really going to pick a fight with a woman?" he said coolly before pushing Sean's arm back with a controlled motion.Sean stumbled backward, clutching his wrist with a mix of irritation and shock. His face twisted into a snarl as he barked at Max, "Mind your own business!"Max tilted his head slightly, smirking. "Business? I didn't realize you had any worth minding," he teased, his words striking a nerve.The insu
