The Wealth Swap: Reclaiming His Legacy Chapter 43
Maxwell's face paled when he heard the words from Gratel. He stood frozen at a spot and could not get himself to move or even utter a word.All he did was gape at the young lady before him.Angel was missing, how?“I don't believe you." Maxwell suddenly replied, shaking his head vigorously.He doesn't know the strange girl standing before him and there's no way he'd believe a word from her.She's a total stranger who claimed to be Angel's friend. What if she's lying or probably up to something.“What do you hope to achieve by doing this? And why are you telling me about it, that's if it's true.”"I've been trying to reach her but she hasn't been reachable since the previous day.”"Then wait for her to reach you. She's an adult and not a child who can suddenly go missing.” Maxwell suddenly snapped at her. He kept a straight face and closed in on the young lady, standing before her face.He tilted himself and whispered to her. “Leave this place now before I call security on you. Your pl

Maurice's driver and the security guard had hurried to the scene when they heard someone screaming.Barbara, the maid, had also run to call them for help only to see them running towards the house.They flung the door open and ran to see Valerie on the ground while Maurice was pouncing on her.They had to act fast and dragged Maurice up, shoving him aside without minding if he was their boss.“Sir, this is so wrong. You don't hit a woman. And do you want to kill her?” His driver seriously scolded him.Maurice glared at each of them and straightened his clothes before he began to ascend the stairs without a word.While he left them, Barbara ran to meet up with Valerie.They helped her up and she was led to the sitting room.Barbara hurried to the kitchen to get someone ice cubes for Valerie's injuries.When Barbara was back from the ice cubes, the men decided to leave them alone.They were completely speechless and could not say anything to Valerie. All they felt for her was pity.They

Victor stood up and began to pace around the sitting room.“How dare he lay a finger on my daughter? And he did not even consider your condition." He was totally mad but helpless at the same time.After pacing for sometime, he sighed deeply and started towards the door. “I'm going over there to deal with that bastard for beating up my daughter.”Victor had resolved to fight with Maurice if he had to.Maurice does not have the right to beat up his daughter no matter what.“Don't go there, please. I don't want you to get into any more trouble because of Maurice.” Patricia swiftly ran and blocked his path.She believed that confronting Maurice and starting a fight with him would not solve the problem.“You're not going there to start a fight with your son-in-law. I won't allow that. There's a better way to resolve such an issue of domestic violence." "Moreover, we're yet to deal with the issue with Maxwell. If we're able to take over everything he has, then we'll have all the power and

“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

Maxwell was knocked out with a sedative so he won't struggle while being conveyed to the location he was needed.While he was abducted outside the Morgans’ residence, Victor and Patricia who had been inside their car around the place witnessed the incident and were happy.They thought that Maxwell had finally met his match. Maybe an unforgiving enemy who he must have crossed has decided to get back to him. With their faces beaming with smiles, they drove out of the place while Patricia placed a call across to Valerie to deliver the news.Meanwhile, Maxwell was brought to a house with nice furnishings and was left to sleep on the Sofa. When he fell awake, his eyes met with a strange looking man staring down at him.Swiftly, Maxwell jumped to his feet and stood a little distant away from the man. “Who are you and what do you want from me? Why have you brought me here?”Maxwell was anxious as he glanced around the place. It was a beautiful house which was not so big. He decided to check

“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

As soon as the lawyer left them there at the courtroom, Valerie yelled in frustration while breathing heavily. After a moment of silence, she turned to her parents with a long face and said to them,“Mom, Dad. You have to go home now. I'll try and figure out what I must do next to get what I deserve. I'm never giving up on getting my own share of his properties.”Victor and his wife shared confusing glances and wanted to retort but Valerie was not in the mood to listen.She quickly told her parents off and sent them on their way home.After that, Valerie left the courtroom as well and drove away to meet up with her friend.She got to Anaya’s coffee shop and found both of her friends engrossed in a serious conversation. However, they stopped talking when they saw Valerie approaching them.Valerie, who was unsuspecting of her friends, gloomily went to meet up with them.“What's going on with you, Val?" Anaya was the first to inquire as she drew out a chair for Valerie to sit on. She was

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

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,

Without even casting a glance at her, Maurice left the room. Valerie had fallen on the ground from the push and remained on the ground while cursing at her husband.Everything was happening like a movie. Her loving and caring husband who worshipped the ground she walked on have changed.He was gradually changing into something she could not explain.Valerie gradually stood up from the ground and followed her husband quietly. She got downstairs and heard Maurice ordering the maid.“Barbara. Get me my dinner now." He yelled in frustration. He was really hungry and had just realized it after throwing up and getting himself cleaned up.Maurice was famished and when the maid came with his food, he did not let the plate sit on the table before digging into it.While he ate, Valerie sat on a sofa in the sitting room, watching him with a deep frown on her face.She was angry and thinking as well. What was she missing?For all the time she's been married to Maurice, he's never raised his voic

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. His father has left him with some businesses which he had taken over.However, he was not cap

"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
