Maxwell found himself married to the daughter of the people who raised him. He was still a kid when his parents-in-law took him in because his real parents were dead. Unfortunately, he secretly got married to Valerie and her parents tried their best to separate them. They became so hostile to him and finally resorted to setting him up. Maxwell was accused falsely for raping Angel who was paid handsomely by the Morgans. He was convicted and sent to prison after being forced to divorce Valerie. It was also at the same prison that he found out about his real identity. After his release, Maxwell was stunned to find Angel waiting for him outside the prison. It appeared that she found something that will help him reclaim his legacy. Because of what happened in the past, will Maxwell forgive Angel? What about the people who sent him to prison? What will be their fate when he takes back all that belongs to him?

“Of all the people in the world, why does it have to be your face I get to see first? Please, get out of my sight. I want to have nothing to do with you.”Maxwell scrutinized the lady before him in a dirty look and began to walk away. At that moment, all he felt for Angel was hate and his plan was to exert his revenge when the time was right. However, she ran after him, stopping right in front of him.Maxwell had just been released from prison and was stunned to see that it was the b*tch standing before him. The same woman that had plotted with the Morgans and sent him to where he was coming out from.“Please Max, let me drop you off.” Angel was standing before him and pleading with a sober face. “I know you're angry with me right now. I'm also angry with myself for what I did and I want to make up for it. Let me make it up to you.”“Hmph.” Maxwell's lips curled into a sneer as he chuckled. “You want to make it up to me. Haha. That's really interesting and so nice of you.”Folding

Valerie's utterances got her friends gasping at her. Louis, the waiter, also stood aside and was watching the drama which was playing before him.From what he noticed, the duo knew each other before. He believed that they were married in the past but somehow, the marriage didn't go well.They had to end it and still remained enemies.“Hahaha. You've gotta be kidding me." Maxwell could not help but laugh at his ex-wife's foolishness.He believed that she was not using her brains. If she was, she wouldn't be standing before his face and confronting him.Maxwell remembered the last time something like that happened.It was the previous day after his court case with Victor Morgan was over. He turned out to be the winner and took over everything that belonged to him, leaving Valerie's parents with nothing.Valerie came to his home and confronted him. However, after she left, her husband came to give him a warning to stay away from his wife.It turns out that Valerie's husband, Maurice, w

The manager was already afraid when he heard that his job would also be on the line.He had no idea who Maxwell was and what he was capable of doing.If he could give away a sum of twenty thousand dollars just to get a waiter fired, then he could pay more to have him dismissed.He could find the owner of the restaurant and make him terminate his job.The man was not ready to lose his job because of a mere waiter.“Hmph. That's more like it." Maxwell chuckled with a smug smile on his face.He went closer to the man and leaned on the table.Fixing his eyes on Mr. Parker, Maxwell muttered to his face. “I want him sacked. It's the guy who was standing outside with me earlier." "I'll do that, right away. Please, wait for me here.”"Of course.” Maxwell nodded as Mr. Parker left the office and went to call on the waiter who followed behind him.Because he knew what was going to happen to him, he kept a pleading expression.When they got to the office, Mr. Parker said to the waiter.“I'm sor

The waiter followed behind Maxwell and saw that he didn't go and sit down on a table. Instead, he walked up to another waiter and muttered a question in his ears.“Where's the Manager's office?" The man pointed to a particular direction and Maxwell followed the path that led him to the Manager's office.He was about to knock on the door but changed his mind.Maxwell went back to the restaurant hall and sat on one of the tables. He ordered some food for himself.The demeaning waiter, who had seen that he was in trouble, decided to treat Maxwell better.It was a way of atoning for his sins with the hope that Maxwell would forgive him and not get him into trouble by reporting him to the manager. It was not the arrogant and demeaning waiter who took Maxwell's order. However, he decided to bring the meals for him.When his food arrived, Maxwell didn't mind who served him or even looked at the waiter's face. He just went ahead and began to devour the food.From where he sat, he could feel

"I'm sure that whatever I acquire from him will go a long way in helping my parents.” Valerie concluded and saw the shocking look on her friends' faces."What is it, girls? Tell me, Is it an impossible mission? I just believe that since he was not poor after all, It's only proper and wise to get what had always belonged to me.”“I can't let him go away with everything, that's why I have to fight for what's mine.”"Are you sure about that?” Anaya inquired and Valerie nodded with pursed lips."I'm very sure about it. Now tell me, what do you suggest?” Valerie casted a glance at Silver and waited for her suggestion.She nodded in agreement and added. “Val, you're absolutely right. Maxwell shouldn't keep everything to himself when you were once married.”"You're supposed to get your own share of his properties.”"Exactly.” Anaya agreed with her friend. "I think you should take him to court.”At the end, Anaya and Silver agreed for Valerie to go to court, even when they already knew what t

“You're bluffing, right? I don't believe a word that you just said." Silver finally broke the silence between them.Deep down in her heart, she was happy about Valerie's family misfortune. And so was Anaya.They had been jealous for nothing.The only thing that gave Valerie an edge over them was the wealth of Maurice who she got married to.It was possible that Maurice would now be responsible for her parents. If it weren't so, her parents would starve to death.Unless they both got a job and started working because as it stood, there was no way for them to earn again.They can only earn by working.However, it would be difficult for the couple to go and start working under somebody especially after tasting a very luxurious life.It was like falling from Grace to grass. Yeah, that was the exact description of what the girls thought about the Morgans’ new life.Even though the girls were happy about Valerie's family misfortune, they tried very hard to keep it in. If they didn't pull th

Collins had a feeling that Maxwell was planning on promoting him. However, he did not expect to be the CEO.That's too big a role to give to someone who was just a mere construction worker.He could still not believe his ears but had to accept Maxwell's handshake by standing up with him.“Congratulations Mr. Collins Greenwood on your new promotion. I believe that you deserve the position and I know that you won't let this company down." With his mouth open, Collins only gaped at Maxwell who was smiling warmly at him."I have made the right decision, haven't I?” He asked Collins who nodded repeatedly.Maxwell sat back on the chair smiling as he thought of something before saying to Collins.“Can you see that you're the answer to your own prayer and the hope you had. You're the man you hoped would lead this great firm better than Victor Morgan." Indeed, Collins had been working at the place all these years, hoping that a better leader would emerge.Now he was the leader who would be b

"Of course, thank you for everything Pablo. You've been most helpful to me.”Maxwell stood up from the seat and went over to shake hands with Pablo before bidding him farewell.As the latter made his way to the door, he bumped into Collins Greenwood outside the door.“He's waiting for you inside." Pablo gave the man permission to enter the office while Diana went back to her office space.The man, who was a little nervous, walked into the office and was about to greet Maxwell when a phone began to ring.It was Maxwell's and the number was not saved on his phone.Maxwell took up the phone from the table while pointing to the seat opposite him.“Please, have a seat." He said calmly and stared at the ringing phone for a while before making up his mind to answer the call.“Hello, this is Maxwell Hunt. Who am I speaking with?" “Max, it's me, Angel. I'm calling to let you know that I'll be coming over to pick you up so we can go to lunch together.”"But I can cook for you if you don't want

Maxwell nodded at him and directed his gaze back to the workers before he opened his mouth to speak.“Good morning everyone." He spoke in a hoarse voice that commanded attention.At that moment, everywhere went still and everyone paid attention to him.“Good morning, Sir." Some workers replied to his greetings while some were unsure of what response to give.They didn't know who he was and were not ready to address him like someone who was superior to them.Until they were sure of his status, then his due respect would be given to him.“I know that you're all wondering a lot about the young man standing before you." Maxwell continued in a very serious tone as he pointed at himself.“Well, if you must know. I'm your new boss and Mr. Victor Morgan would no longer show his face here again. His job is done here.”"And, I'm not going to waste my time to give the details about that.”While Maxwell spoke, he saw the surprised look on their faces.Some were happy about the new development. Ho

Angel stood among the workers but was not wearing an apron or a helmet with them. She was dressed simply in big crazy jeans trousers and a t-shirt which was too big for her small body.Just like the street girl that she was, she didn't care so much about her dressing.Angel had left home that morning with the hope of going to see Maxwell since it's been awhile they saw each other. She knew that he'd show up at the construction firm eventually.Maxwell had seriously instructed his security guard not to let Angel into his home because he didn't want to see her face again.Unfortunately, the latter was not backing down.Her intention was to make Maxwell be good with her no matter what. She wanted them to be good friends.“What is she doing here?" Maxwell repeated himself, still directing his question to the confused Pablo.His voice was quite loud and created chaos amongst the staff who had converged before him.They scrutinized each other in a bid to find out who Maxwell was referring
