"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

    Victor Morgan answered the call immediately without wasting any time.He was eager to know why the man was suddenly calling after cutting ties with him.“Hello. Commissioner James. It's nice to hear from you again after all this time. To what do I owe this pleasure.”"Your ex son-in-law came here to threaten me. We both know how powerful he has become. I fear for my career.”"I don't know what to do right now because I can't lose my career, I'll lose face if he manages to expose me.” The Commissioner's voice was a little tense and Victor could sense the fear in it.It must be something serious if the commissioner was this scared."What exactly did he say to you?” Victor inquired in a low voice, his thoughts drifting away.He was thinking of so many things at the same time.“He accused me of using my influence to help you and your wife." The man replied and added.“He claims to be aware of what I did. That you and your wife should be rotting in jail but I helped you escape jail time.”

    After a moment of silence, she swallowed hard and sighed inwardly. She thought of a lie to tell Valerie.“I… um… I was letting her off with a serious warning to not mess with you. I told her not to bother you again.” Silver lied, scratching her head nervously.“You see. I'll always stand up for you anytime." “Of course, you will." Valerie nodded at her and smiled, waving off the matter.“Come on, let's get the hell out of this place." ***That morning, Maxwell decided to visit someone he should have visited a long time ago. Commissioner James.He wanted to ask the man a few questions.When they got to the police station where the man was serving, Maxwell alighted from his car and said to Andrew. “Wait here. I won't take much time inside." He turned to his bodyguards and nodded at them and they followed him, leaving just Andrew outside.He took the opportunity to call Wyatt.The latter answered immediately. “Tell me what you have." “Nothing important, Sir. I just want to let you kn

    "How dare you call me names?”Angel pointed a finger at her, curled her lips into a sneer and continued. "You, whose parents took over someone else's wealth. What could be more devilish than that?” "Of course, you're their offspring and you'll see nothing wrong with what they did. After all, the apple does not fall far from its tree.”Angel closed in on Valerie, closing the little distance between them.Angel gave Valerie a very disgusting look before adding. “Call me names one more time or even touch me then I'll show you what it means to be shameless.”Angel's face had darkened and the look on it was very cold. She was ready to devour Valerie and face whatever consequences that came with it.After she said those words, daring Valerie, she did not breathe a word.Valerie turned to Silver who raised brows at her and commented. “Come on, Val. We have to leave this place. You don't want to get into a fight, do you?" Valerie gave her friend an intense glare before turning back to face

    Valerie and Anaya turned to see Silver standing beside them. She had a serious look on her face and glared at Valerie before going to have a seat. “You ditched us like we meant nothing and left the party. I thought you were just dancing and having fun like us. However, I was surprised to see that you slapped someone and went off.”"What did he do to you?”"He held me by the waist and I could not take it because I was afraid that he might take it further.” Valerie replied in a very low and meek voice.Anaya and Silver exchanged surprised glances.“What is wrong with trying to hold you by the waist?” Silver snapped at her and decided to change the topic.“Tell us what's going on, Valerie. How are you doing right now?" “I hope you're taking things easy?" The girls inquired, sounding very caring.“Yeah. I'm fine.”Anaya and Silver exchanged knowing glances before Silver called out to one of the waitresses there and ordered coffee.“What was that look about?" “It's about time you start

    Wyatt could not believe that Maxwell was standing him up because of Angel. Well, there was nothing more he could do but to put up with it.Moreover, it was him who needed something from Maxwell so he had to be humble.He has to swallow it all.Meanwhile, Maxwell ended Wyatt's call and called back Angel. The latter answered the call but stayed silent.She just wanted to call Maxwell but did not have anything to say to him.“I hope you got home safely?" She finally inquired, smiling sheepishly while playfully squeezing her fingers. She had just come out of her bathroom after freshening up.“Yeah. Thank you." Maxwell replied, also smiling.He was still surprised at himself. If someone had told him before that he'd be in love with Angel, he'd have cursed the person.Now all his thoughts were about Angel.“Alright then, I'll hang up now. I wanted to make sure that you got home safely. See you tomorrow.” Angel added and without waiting for Maxwell to say anything else, she ended the call.

    Maxwell had just been driven off when Valerie showed up before the building. She had been following them and from where she hid, she saw the couple alight from the car.She also saw Maxwell and Angel walk together into the building and Maxwell came out after some minutes.She already believed that they were now a couple and that was the reason she kept following them.Valerie had previously sent someone who was to claim Angel as his girlfriend so that Maxwell would hate Angel. Unfortunately for her, the person didn't have the chance to get any closer to Maxwell.Her money and effort were wasted.Valerie was about to go into the building but suddenly changed her mind. She didn't know the apartment number and it was a bad idea to show up before Angel at that time.Her phone began to ring suddenly and she saw that it was her mother.Valerie hesitantly answered the call. “Where the heck are you? I hope you're not doing something stupid, Valerie?”"Mom, I'm not doing anything stupid. I'm
