Later that evening, Maxwell and his friend Wyatt met up for a few drinks. For the few minutes, the friends stayed silent.The only sounds that was heard were from the other customers who were drinking and chatting.With his gaze fixed on Maxwell, Wyatt took one sip from his glass and carefully placed it on the table.“Why are you giving me that look?” Maxwell finally muttered the question, breaking the awkward silence between them. However, Wyatt only faked a smile before responding.“Tell me the truth, Maxwell. Have you fallen in love with Angel?" Maxwell was taken unawares by the question. He swallowed hard and let out a sigh before giving Wyatt a response.“No. I don't have any feelings for her. So tell me where the question is coming from." “What makes you think that I'm in love with her." “Because you seemed to care a lot about her lately. Do you remember the time I called you and you thought it was that Angel girl.” Wyatt smirked.“I was just worried about her, that's all. Yo

After giving each of them an intense look, Valerie replied to them. “Are you talking about the court case with Maxwell which I did not tell Maurice about.”"Yes. Is that the reason your marriage with Maurice is over?”“No, that's not the reason. It was because Maurice's company was experiencing a big loss. He had to take it out on me and that was how I lost my pregnancy." “But what does it have to do with Maxwell?" “He's the one who targeted Maurice's business and made him go bankrupt." Valerie replied and angrily bit her teeth while seriously fuming.Just in a very short time, she's lost her baby and her marriage. Her parents had also lost all the wealth they owned.Anaya and Silver exchanged glances before sympathizing with her.“We're so sorry about everything that is happening to you." Their sympathy sounded genuine but they really did not feel sorry for Valerie.Some time ago, she was flaunting her good life before them. Unfortunately, things have suddenly changed.Valerie was

Valerie sat with her friends, Silver and Anaya at a different table. They were chatting and having coffee together.Valerie had called them together to complain about the problems she was encountering in her life.She took a sip from her coffee and placed the mug on the table before saying to them.“I can't believe how worse things have gotten for me and my family. Now I have lost my child and my marriage with Maurice is over.”"Everything happened so fast that I can't really comprehend how it happened.While Silver was paying attention to Valerie's complaint, Anaya's gaze was elsewhere.“Is that not Maxwell, your ex-husband and a lady having coffee over there.” Anaya said while pointing towards a direction.She interrupted Valerie's complaints and they all turned to the direction.When Valerie saw Maxwell and Angel, her anger rose and she suddenly began to breathe heavily.“What are they doing here?" She muttered to herself while balling her fists.Valerie had learned the truth about

After Angel dropped the call, she turned to her friend in a very bright smile before saying to her.“The risk I took in abducting myself was worth it. It's already paying off.” Angel announced excitedly before running off to change into something nice.She had planned to go and get her luggage from her apartment later. Since she urgently came to her friend's house the previous night, she had no clothes to change into so Gratel was willing to share her wardrobe with Angel.Angel was soon back to the sitting room in a simple dressing of trousers and shirt.Maxwell only asked her out for a coffee. It's not like they were going for a dinner date.If it was a dinner outing, Angel would surely look her best.“Are you sure you're not going to tell him what truly transpired? You have to tell him the truth or he'd never forgive you if he finds out what you did on his own.” Gratel admonished her but she made a joke out of it."I'm gradually getting him to look my way. What does it matter how I

After giving them a stern warning, Maxwell turned around and began to walk away. He got into his car and as they were about to drive away, Valerie blocked their way.She refused to leave the way and Maxwell was forced to come out of the car.“What is this supposed to mean? Do you want to be run over by my car?” He scolded Valerie who only stood at a spot without a word.Her parents just watched from a distance, unable to fathom what was going on in their daughter's mind.After a long pause, Valerie walked up to Maxwell and stood before his face. She put on a straight and gave Maxwell a thorough scrutiny before commenting.“Have you lost your humanity? How could you come here and say those hurtful words to me when I did nothing wrong to you. I just lost my baby and l'm also going through a heartbreak.”"Are you angry that our marriage did not end well? Was that why you targeted Maurice so that my marriage would be affected?”Valerie suddenly fell silent, stared intently at Maxwell's fa

The next morning, Maxwell was driven to the Morgans’ residence. He went there to confront them and let them know that he was not ignorant of what they did.They had the nerve to send people to kidnap him.They pulled over outside the gate and he came down and knocked roughly on it.Since the Morgans did not have any domestic staff, one of them had to come out to attend to the gate.Patricia Morgan was already working on the yard when she heard the knock on the gate so she decided to check it out.When she opened the gate and saw that it was Maxwell, she went completely dumb and stood at a spot gaping at him.“W… What are you doing here?” Patricia regained herself and muttered the question."Hmph.” Maxwell let out a dry chuckle and with a bright smile on his face, he replied to her."Why do you look so shocked like you've seen a ghost? It's still me, Maxwell, your ex son-in-law in flesh and blood." “And I came here to show my face and let you guys know that you will never succeed." "
