Chapter 0036: South Hall Pavilion
The next day, Max and Meredith left Rosario headquarters for an important event happening at the South Hall Pavilion.As the name implies, the hall was located in the southern portion of the city and was an imposing architectural masterpiece that merged aspects of the ancient era and the modern era to appear as it does today.Meredith saw no reason to go there, but Max knew it was the best place to swiftly increase the net worth of the Augustus family. In truth, he planned on going alone but Meredith was scared he'd end up gambling away too much money and so chose to tag along. The owner of the Hall, Mr. Richard Stanton, usually organized stock auctions for the rich and wealthy in the city, allowing them to invest money into potential cryptocurrencies with the promise of incredible returns if the currency ended up going the way they predicted.In any case, the compound the pavilion was in was currently filled with a fleet of cars from different dignitaries that had deemed it fit to
Chapter 0035: Twenty four hours
Both Alfred and Meredith could hardly hide their shock as they watched Max absolutely demolish his opponents.For Alfred, even though he was aware that Max had spent one year in the army as part of the mandatory service to the country, he didn't expect that his time away from home would grant him such an exponential increase in strength.It truly was astounding.As for Meredith, she had to accept that she had underestimated Max's prowess, though it didn't do much to change her perception of him.All it did was make her understand that he was strong, but strength did not translate to business acumen, which was what mattered to her.In any case, she kept her thoughts to herself, as did Alfred, both watching as Max conversed with Duncan.“You can keep your position as head.” Max calmly remarked. “All I need from you is to ensure that you and your men aren't used against me.”“Of course, boss, anything you say.”“Good. Now, I know Mr. Sanchez gave you a mission.”“Ah, about that…”“No nee
Chapter 0034: Four against one
The four men Duncan asked Max to face were already waiting for him to step forward, each one radiating a rather intimidating aura. Even a fool could tell they weren't ordinary men In truth, they were Martial Artists, individuals capable of utilizing spiritual energy to strengthen their bodies and perform incredible feats.For normal people, fighting these men would be the same as a death sentence.But Max was no simple man.In fact, he had realized it while taking on Mario and his men.Though he wasn't as strong as he was in the past, he had managed to retain not just his core training but his spiritual core as well, which meant he could strengthen his body with spiritual energy if need be.This helped him trivialize the current encounter.On the platform, the four bald men stared at Max intently with cold smiles.They had met countless skilled martial artists in Westbrook, but they had defeated all of those who challenged them.Max was not going to be any different.“Cut the chit–c
Chapter 0033: Crow's Nest
“Young master, are you alright?” Alfred asked as he sat in the limo across from Max.Meredith was seated next to him, though she remained silent, not because she didn't have anything to say but because she wasn't close enough to Max to say anything.Jolted from his thoughts, Max replied. “Yes, I'm fine.”“You look worried though.”“Honestly, I'm fine. Don't worry about it.” Though he said that, Max was far from fine.His meeting with Jonathan had confirmed something he'd always suspected in his past life.In his first life, the reason Mirabel and Bernard killed him was that he was coming close to uncovering the criminal ring their families were a part of.Unfortunately, before he could get the last clue he needed to reveal the truth, they set a trap for him and that was how he lost his life.Having been reminded of the reason for his death, Max had his resolve for vengeance strengthened.Jonathan may think that he would be let off for betraying Natasha and the Cavendish family but he
Chapter 0032: Incoming storm
Max couldn't help but wonder what explanation Jonathan wished to give to excuse what his son had done.“It was Natasha. She came to me and asked for our families to be united. She claimed it would be beneficial for our companies.”“So you, out of your greed, decided to accept her offer?”“There was no greed.”Max snorted. “So you aren't aware that they planned to frame me for a crime that you actually committed?... That you aren't aware that they planned to commit insurance fraud by claiming damages for what they had done but blamed me for?”Jonathan froze as he hadn't expected that Max would know that part of the plan.“It's not a secret, Jonathan, anyone with a brain could have figured it out.” Max intoned with a bit of mockery.Coughing awkwardly, Jonathan didn't dare to hide his intentions as he remarked. “That is true, but I had no idea that you were the son of the Augustus family.”“Mister Darrow.” Max suddenly spoke up, cutting him off. “I'm not here to hear about how you and N
Chapter 0031: Just getting started
Now that Max had already absolved himself and that bastard Harold had already told the police the truth, the only thing she could do now was either pay back the money or risk going to jail.“Ma'am, also, all four of our big money clients that we have contracts with also reached out and have cancelled their contracts with us.”“What in the world is happening?” Mirabel felt like her whole world was falling apart.“Not just that but a good percentage of our workforce have placed their resignation letters.”“Damn it, shut the fuck up. Is it only bad news you have to share with me?” Mirabel bellowed, unable to take much more of the overflowing negatives.“I'm sorry, young Miss.” The secretary quickly backed away to avoid Mirabel's fury.Meanwhile, Mirabel continued to panic as she couldn't even begin to figure out how to handle the situation.Even though she was CEO of the company, she had no idea how to run a company.All she ever did was give orders, and even those orders she gave were s
