Maxwell scoffed loudly and turned his gaze back to his ex-wife. After a moment of silence, he said to her in a disgusting tone. “And you, we had something good going on between us but you let your parents deceive you." “If you didn't listen to them, we would have still been together and there won't be any need for this court case." “Well, except for the court case between your parents and I because I needed to reclaim my father's legacy which they stole." “You are a damn cheat and rapist. How do you expect me to believe someone like you who was not content with his wife. You had to go and cheat on me with another woman and even went as far as raping her.” Valerie retorted angrily, her face burning with so much rage.Maxwell looked at her for a while and laughed before replying. "You're still in the dark. Go ahead and ask your parents what truly happened.”"You should have known by now that your parents framed me.”Valerie had already found out about that part of the story. She only

“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

“How did you get this?” Maxwell could not believe his eyes. On his hands were important documents of many assets that had his name in it.“Well, you can start by saying a thank you to me. Maybe after that, the questions may start coming.”Maxwell frowned and turned his face away. “How did you get this documents?” He repeated his question but Angel didn't answer it.“That question is not necessary. What's important now is how to take back all that belongs to you. Look Max, you've been stolen from and cheated for many years. All you should think about now is to kick those criminals out of your properties.”Maxwell was quiet. He was no longer ignorant of the whole thing. In fact, he was thinking so hard on how to take back his parents' legacy. Fortunately, everything had just been made easier for him by the same woman who joined forces with his oppressors and sent him to prison.What was really happening? Maxwell was in a state of bewilderment.He stole a glance at the lady whose gaze was

“What the heck are you doing here? How dare you show your face here again?” Maxwell watched with his hands akinbo as his ex father in-law yelled in frustration. It was a surprise that he was at home at that time of the day. Maybe he came back for lunch?Rising to his feet, he raced to the door to call security on Maxwell. However, the latter couldn't care less about the man as he went ahead and settled on the sofa.“Honey, I heard your voice from up here. Who are you yelling at?” Patricia Morgan’s voice was heard as she descended the stairs. However, when her eyes fell on Maxwell, she instantly froze and gaped at him for a while.When she managed to regain herself, she yelled at Maxwell. “Who the heck are you and what are you doing here? You should go back to the hell hole you crawled out from now.”Turning to her husband with a very dark expression, she asked him. “Honey, what is this man doing here? You know we don't allow beggars into our house. Who let him in here?”“I let myself

“Is this some kind of trick? What is she doing here at your house?”Angel stood before him with a warm smile on her face. “I called him and gave him the information that he needed. That was why the men were able to find you easily and at the right place and time.”Maxwell began to fume. He could not believe that Pablo was working with Angel. Why were they working together?He doesn't want to have anything to do with Angel no matter what she did for him. He was just grateful but didn't want to associate himself to Angel.What was she thinking? That he'd just spread his hands open and hug her because she helped him retrieve some documents. That will never happen.Turning to Pablo, he asked furiously. “What is she doing here? Please, make her leave or I'll be the one to leave.”Pablo shook his head disapprovingly. “You have to calm down. Angel is only trying to help. I know everything that happened in the past and I'm not happy about it as well.”“No, I'm not going to calm down. This wom

With the court case being over, Pablo was able to win the case for Maxwell. It only meant that he had taken back everything that Victor took from his father.

They had no choice but to return to their home.When Maxwell's parents died and Victor took charge of his companies, he and Patricia left their little villa and moved to the Hunts’ mansion. Victor became intoxicated by his late friend's wealth and affluence so he did all he could to keep it.All of the late Edward Hunt's loyal staff were sent on their toes.Sitting down on the sofa of his sitting room, Victor propped his jaws on his palm and was lost in his thoughts.

How did we get so careless and not change all the names on those documents? What's

Without a word, Maxwell started towards the door and to the gate where the woman was making a scene. It was on his way to the gate that he realized the glass in his hand.Maxwell prayed earnestly that the lady shouldn't be Angel. He didn't want to be forced to call the police on her. Angel had done a good deed for him and he didn't want them to have any more problems.Although he had promised to make her pay for what she did to him. However, he changed his mind when she helped him retrieve the documents he used in reclaiming his legacy. Maxwell was not going to do anything to her again. All he wanted was for the lady to stay away from him.He soon got closer to the gate and saw Valerie already inside. She had managed to force her way in. Stopping in his tracks, Maxwell glanced at the lady before him as the memory of their past together flashed before his face.“What are you doing here, Valerie?” He asked the lady before him as he gaped at her.Valerie was the only woman he ever loved

A while later, he was ready and made his way downstairs to meet a meal of Omelette muffins and a cup of coffee.“Good morning, Sir. Your breakfast is served. And I do hope you'll enjoy it.” Damian, the chef greeted him while standing by the side.Kay and Leilani, the new maids, also stood beside Damian and greeted in unison.“Good morning, Sir." At first, Maxwell was caught unawares and only gaped at the strangers before him.He was not used to seeing them around.“Sir, are you okay?" Damian's question jolted him out of his reverie and he forced out a smile and nodded.“I'm fine, thank you for the breakfast." Maxwell replied to him. He turned to the maids and nodded at them. “Good morning, uh…”"It's Kay and Leilani." Kay reminded him of their names as she pointed at herself and the other person. And from the way they acted, Maxwell believed that they must be close friends Since they were only new employees, Maxwell had still not memorized their names so they had to remind him.“Oh,

Pablo smiled sadly and said to him, "I miss them as well. And I'm certain that your parents are proud of you. I know that they would have traded anything to stay alive and see you grow up.”He reached out and patted Maxwell gently on the back. “You're strong, Maxwell and I'm happy to help you." Maxwell remained silent and after a while, he decided to wave it off. “Thank you for offering to help me fight those people in court. I know how busy you've become but you chose to always stand by me.”"Stop thanking me. It's my duty to always fight for you. Your Dad was a good man and treated me well. So let's say that I'm repaying his good deeds.” Pablo replied to him, smiling warmly.After their time together at the place, Pablo went back home and so did Maxwell.Since he was studying online, he needed to go home and meet up with his classes.Maxwell wanted to learn more about business management.

"Thank you, Boss.” Angel muttered and turned around to leave. Her heart was beating chaotically as she walked out in freedom.Well, her freedom depends on her. However, she had no intention of snitching on the Boss.Moreover, he helped her in the past and she's been surviving from what she earns from errands and other stuff she was involved in.***Later that evening, Maxwell met up with his lawyer, Pablo at a fancy coffee cafe.They wanted to discuss the court case which would be happening the next day.The man was already at the place and was sipping coffee when Maxwell showed up.“Mr. Pablo." He greeted the man and sat opposite the man who responded to him with a nod.He sat on the chair opposite Mr. Pablo and ordered coffee for himself as well.“I can see that you're handling things just fine at the company." Pablo commented with a warm smile on his face and Maxwell nodded in excitement.“It's going really fine. And as it stands, we have two huge projects that will be starting soo

With the gun still pointed at her, the young man drew backwards before asking again.“How can I be sure that you're telling the truth?" “You can call him and ask him to confirm." Angel replied immediately.And without another word, the man brought out his phone and put a call across to the boss.“Boss, there's a young lady here to see you. She said that her name is…” The man paused the call and turned to Angel before asking."What is that name of yours?”"Tell him it's Angel.”The man continued with his call and the next minute, Angel was on her way in, accompanied by the man in a hoodie.She remembered the day she came there and how the Boss helped her. It was the boss who helped her with the money she needed for her sister's surgery.Unfortunately, her sister did not make it and she had to return the money through one of his boys.The boss had to call her later to send an interest or she'll be in trouble.Angel was led inside and soon she was standing before the boss.The man was s

While standing there and gaping at the door which had just been closed before her, Valerie heard her phone ringing and hurried to answer it.She saw that the caller was her father and quickly answered it.“Dad." “Valerie, we did not talk about the lawyer when you came around. Tell me, have you found one who would be representing you?"Victor had thought about it and decided to find out.He wanted to help get a lawyer for her but she refused. Although Victor was sure that no one would want to help him after the scandal, he still wanted to try but Valerie refused his help.His fear was that the so-called lawyer Valerie had employed would charge so much and still not do his job well.The case was a delicate one so whoever would be handling it must be a professional.Victor was sure that if a good lawyer handles the case, Valerie would be victorious and get what she deserved. After she got everything due for her, she'd hand them over to her parents. By doing so, the Morgans would be able

"How much do you think you can pay to regain your freedom?” The Boss let out a dry chuckle while glaring at Angel. “Well, even if you pay me, you won't completely be free because I'll always have my eyes on you.”He suddenly started towards the door while his bodyguard followed behind. When they got to the door, he stopped and without turning around, he muttered coldly.“I'm waiting for the money you can afford for your freedom. However, if it's not enough, you won't be free." After that, they opened the door and left, leaving Angel standing speechlessly at a spot.She could not believe what she had gotten herself into.Although she has some money saved up, she has no idea if it'd be enough to settle her blood thirsty and money hungry boss.Even after paying off her debt, she'd still have to be cautious and keep her mouth shut. If she says anything about the boss's business and gets the police coming after him, she would be eliminated by his men.Angel regretted everything and wishe

There was absolute silence at the place for a while before the boss stood up and turned to Angel.He flashed a fake smile at her and chuckled.“Wow! You've really grown balls, my dear Angel." The man reached out and touched her cheeks but Angel yanked his hands away.“Don't you dare touch me again." “Or what are you going to do?" He threatened, with the fake smile still on his face.“Are you going to call the police on me?" The boss raised his brows at her, waiting for a response which was not forthcoming.As the man spoke, Angel remained silent and only glared at him.“Are you dumb now, feisty Angel. You can't talk anymore." Angel still remained silent. The man before her was a dangerous person and she had to act cautiously. If not, he might just get rid of her at the place and nothing will happen.The man was a notorious substance dealer in his territory and was not one to mess with.After a moment of silence, he turned around and strode towards her television set.
