Dragon Master novel Maximilian novel Chapter 140

“Fuck off, idiot! How dare you say those big words? If Mr. Carter can’t deal with it, can you? You must be kidding me!” said Andy.

 

This was a good chance to flatter Humphrey. Once Humphrey had a good impression on him, he might be able to work at DK Investments one day.

 

Laura took away the water and snacks in Maximilian’s hand and shouted to him angrily, “Get out of my sight! I'll beat you if you brag again.”

 

Glancing at Maximilian, Humphrey pretended to be generous, “Mrs. Griffith, let the jerk stay here. He can clean up the rubbish for us, which is good for the environment.”

 

“Humphrey is right. Stay here and take charge of the rubbish, but don't disturb the negotiation between Humphrey and the company staff.”

 

“If he could deal with it, the sun would come up in the west.”

 

Maximilian went to another side and looked at the annoyed Humphrey with cold eyes.

 

“Humphrey, don't be angry. I'll fix him when this issue is over.”

 

Laura comforted Humphrey in a hurry in case he would be influenced by Maximilian.

 

Soon a director of the investment company came, behaving like a thief.

 

“Are you Mr. Carter?” asked the director in a low voice.

 

“I’m Humphrey Carter, the general manager of DK Investment. What’s wrong with your company? Even if it went wrong with the yield, you should at least return the capital,” said Humphrey aggressively.

 

“As for the capital, we don’t say we won't return it. Please wait for some days. When we solve the problem properly, we will call you.”

 

What he said was nonsense.

 

“That's not Ok. You should tell us a certain time. How long should we keep waiting? What can we do if you all run away?” said Laura discontentedly.

 

The director ignored Laura, and looked at Humphrey. He could take a risk to be here only for the sake of Humphrey.

 

“Bro, I know your trick. If you can give the money back to these aunts, I can assure you a good future. Think about it.”

 

Andy couldn't be more jealous.

 

“Oh, my god! Mr. Carter is promising a good future! If you agree with it, you won't worry about money in the future. I’m sure a director can easily deal with it.” added Andy.

 

Seeing the situation with his cold eyes, Maximilian shook his head helplessly. He couldn't believe that these people were so silly that they put their hope on a director.

 

Maximilian’s expression made Humphrey proud and his mouth twisted in a contemptuous sneer. He believed that the director would help to get the capital back because of the benefits he promised, and at that time, he could humiliate Maximilian with all his strength.

 

They made a quick eye contact, which also expressed their thought to each other.

 

The director pondered for a while, but replied with a wry smile, “Mr. Carter, though I look forward to working for you, I am helpless with the capital. Let me tell you the truth, I don’t even know where the money is.”

 

Though shocked, Humphrey pulled the director to another side before Laura realized. “Bro, who's your boss? Why is he so stubborn that he even ignores me?”
