91: Maya Returns
Minutes later, Tiger appeared again causing Max to turn around, wondering why he had come back. "Sir!" Tiger called slowly, biting his lips, hoping Max was not going to get angry. After all, he had assigned him a task and yet he had come back without doing it. "What's wrong Tiger," Max turned around, staring at Tiger, wondering why the latter was back so soon. "Maya has arrived sir," Tiger reported, avoiding Max's gaze. "I see," Max's lips curled up into a mocking smile. Seemed like this was the reason this love brain had come back. Though ye knew one thing. If Tiger was asked to choose between his love for Maya and loyalty for Max, he would ultimately choose the latter. That was a given. The only reason he came back was just to inform Max cause he was sure that Max would put everything down to welcome her. "She's at the airport currently and has asked me if you were coming," Tiger continued to explain even though Max didn't ask. "Sure, let's go pick her up," Max agreed without
92: Buying A House
Trying to hit on her? If only Dylan was here, then he would drop dead in the next second. "You don't have to be like this, beautiful. Though I don't know you, we could actually work on knowing each other," Jake smiled, acting like he didn't hear the displeasure in Maya's words. At the moment, the sales girls seemed to have forgotten their initial fear and were whispering amongst each other. "That's the young master of the Grayson family!" "If I was the one, I wouldn't even think about it before I accept!" "Do you think the Young master of the Grayson family would look at someone like you!" "Better keep your voice down; remember, Mr. David is still in the building!" This voice seemed to have some effects as the chatter died down considerably, everyone minding their business. At the moment, Maya had a frown on her beautiful face feeling rather disgusted. If it were some other girl, they would have been fooled by his flowery words, but she was never going to be fooled by his word
93: Peak Of Foolishness
He was pretty sure Max would not be able to afford such a house. With the way he was dressed, he was even more sure about it, and this made him even more confident. "Well, I don't think the house you want to get meets the requirements.." Jake continued, flipping one of the documents. Hearing his words, the expression on the sales girl's face changed. What the heck was he saying? The house Max chose was one of the most expensive and biggest houses they had for sale, yet he was saying it didn't meet his conditions of three hundred square meters. If the house didn't meet it, then what in hell could meet his requirements? "Are you sure about that?" Max glanced at Jake who had already closed with documents without reading it. "Why should I argue with you. Hurry up and break up with her, you can't take care of her," Jake urged, not bothering to hide the disdain in his voice anymore. "Maya, he's just a pauper; you'll just be subjecting yourself to poverty if you continue to be with him
94: Fool
Was he a fool or what? At first, she had a little bit of respect for him due to his family name and the way he was dressed. But now, it had all been washed away. After all, how could she respect an idiot like him? Well, she didn't want to blame him also. If David had not personally brought Max in, called her, and commanded her to give him a house of his choice. After Max had chosen a house, she had secretly contacted David and told him of the house Max chose, but David had said, 'The more expensive, the better.' This got her shocked and she knew instantly that Max was someone David was trying to get on his good side. Leaving all of that aside, with the way everything was progressing, wasn't Jake supposed to be able to guess something was wrong. "I understand, sir, and I appreciate your kindness," The sales girl nodded and bowed slightly to Jake, who nodded in satisfaction. The sales girl's eyes narrowed in disdain seeing this, but there was nothing she could do. Even if she hate
95: Agreement
Everyone stared at Jake in disgust wondering what kind of fool he was. There was the truth, but yet he wasn't willing to accept it. Did he want to disgrace himself even more? "Hehehehe," Unexpectedly, Jake burst out into laughter as though he heard the joke of the century. "You..you can afford it..." Jake choked on his laughter, pointing at Max who had a slight frown on his face. "How about we make a bet," Max's eyes flashed with a glint, seemed like it was time to put this idiot in place. "If I'm able to get this house, then you'll Kowtow to me and call me grandfather. Then you'll scram and never appear in front of me again; else, if you do, you have to bow to me and address me as a grandfather," Max's mouth curled up into a wicked smile as he said this. "Huh?" Everyone gasped hearing Max's words. Making the heir of the Jackson family kowtow and call him grandfather? What kind of joke was that? Even Maya had a frown on her face at the moment. Though she knew Max could afford th
96: Shocked?
David also had a frown on his face. Just when the girl had gone to get the house, he had instructed her to press the amount as either ten or a hundred dollars. That way Max would be saved from trouble. But he didn't expect David to be so unreasonable that he wanted to take a closer look at the machine while the girl was operating. "Jake..." "I knew you were covering up for him. There's no need for you to try and dissuade me. All I need to see is the amount she would input and then the receipt." Jake shook his head interrupting David. "Are you still not ready to give up yet?" Jake turned to Max, disgust written all over his face. "Carry on grandson, you'll realize the words of your grandfather are never in vain," Max snickered, his eyes narrowing into a crescent. At the moment, Max's impression of David went up a notch. Though he didn't know what he had told the sales girl, he could tell he had planned to get him out of this sticky situation. Jake's expression darkened upon heari
97: Kowtowing
"Since that's the case, there's no way I'll agree to the bet, I deem it null," Jake puffed his shoulders, his gaze condescending. "This is getting interesting," Max replied, his face beaming with a strange light. "How about we increase the stake of the bet?" "Allow me to propose the term of the bet this time," Jake agreed, his gaze fixated on Max. "Sure," Max agreed immediately. "Prove to me you don't need my money, and you're not affected by the money you just spent; then I'll willingly be your driver for a month," Jake sneered. "And if you can't, you'll be my driver for a month too, adding along with the other bets," "And how do you want me to prove to you that I'm not affected by it?" Max asked, the smile on his face never fading. "Buy three more houses of that price, then I'll agree," "Nah, there's no need for us to go that far," Max shook his head. He already had a house; there was no need to spend money to prove to this fool he was rich. "Hahaha, you're scared right?"
98: Strange Energy
Everyone present swallowed the invisible lump in their throat. Jake's voice was not low, it was just that Max wanted to humiliate him. As for the sound of his forehead hitting the floor, it was just a punishment. "Also, add unfilial to your first words," Max added, just as Jake was about to kowtow again. Suppressing the extreme anger in his heart, Jake kowtowed one more, his loud voice responding throughout the whole place, while the sound of his forehead colliding with the hard marble floor reached everyone's ears. "Unfilial Grandson greets Grandfather!" "Now, this is his. You do it," Max chuckled, nodding his head satisfactorily. "Now repeat it until I'm satisfied," Max commanded. Hesitation flashed in Jake's eyes, but just as he was about to retort, he heard Max's cold voice, "Maya, call Dominic, there's an interesting piece of news we need to release by tomorrow," Gritting his teeth, Jake had no other choice but to comply and for the next few minutes, his voice echoed thro
99: Can't Treat It Now
Max frowned slightly hearing this. Was the old man's situation really that complicated? "Is it something you can do now?" Max thought for a moment and then asked, wondering if she could do it at the moment. "No master, I would have to make a few preparations, the energy is rather violent," Maya shook her head as she answered. "What if I suppress it for you?" Max asked again, still wanting to get it done. Maya on the other hand understood Max's desire to do what he wanted to do right at the moment and then seize all kinds of communication with the Thompson family. But this was beyond what she could just do. Even if Max was to suppress the energy that would be on the surface, it would still affect her and that could cause a lot of problems. So she shook her head as she said, "Even if you suppress it, it would be of no use," "Alright then," Max nodded and turned to face the old man whom they had seemingly ignored. "Sorry about that old man," Max apologized, turning back to the ol
100: The Old man's Contemplation
But Max stopped her in time knowing how cruel the world was. At first, Maya was a bit uncomfortable with the rules, but as time went by and she treated more and more people, she realized her master was right. So she became even firmer when necessary and never gave in no matter what the case was. Well, except in a few cases and that was rare. So if those who knew how things worked were to hear that he was able to get Max to intervene and Maya treated his legs without seeking anything in return, that would instantly make them assume they were on Max's good side. This was because Max rarely intervened to get Maya to treat anyone. If someone told him, his reply would be to pay enough to get what they wanted. Or they should prove worthy and they would get the treatment they so desired. So with that, they would be able to live a lot longer that way. But then technically, the Thompson family was on Max's good side. Since day one, the old man had never said a word about what he wanted.
