Dragon Master novel Maximilian novel Chapter 158

Meanwhile, Humphrey knocked on the door of Victoria’s home.

After receiving Dallas’s message, Humphrey couldn’t help coming over to laugh at Maximilian.

Since Connor had given Dallas a lesson, the more Dallas thought about it, the angrier he got. Thus, he told Humphrey that he had already sorted Maximilian out, and asked Humphrey to transfer the final payment to him.

When Humphrey transferred the final payment to Dallas happily, he bought something and came straight to Victoria’s home. He did this to humiliate Maximilian later so that he could save his face.

Laura opened the door and saw Humphrey outside, whose cheek was still red and swollen. She could feel that she was sharing the same bitter hatred against Maximilian with Humphrey.

"It’s you, Humphrey. Come in and have a seat."

"I bought some cosmetics for you, Aunt Laura. They are good at relieving swelling and pain. I just tried one, and now I’m getting much better."

Hearing this, Laura even wanted to cry. She thought to herself, what a considerate man! Even if he himself had been slapped, he didn’t forget to buy something for her. He was more thoughtful than that loser, Maximilian.

"You should have a good rest as well. You are a boss, and have to recover soon so that you won’t embarrass yourself in front of your subordinates."

"But you are more important, Aunt Laura. I can work from home. It doesn’t matter."

Humphrey glanced at the clock as he spoke, and thought Maximilian would be back soon. Humphrey didn’t know what Maximilian was like. Perhaps he was beaten so badly that even his biological mother couldn’t recognize him.

Thinking of this, Humphrey started to smile.

"Humphrey, it’s so considerate of you. Come on. Have a seat and have some fruit. I will serve the tea."

"Aunt Laura, don’t bother. I’m just drop by, and will leave soon."

Hardly had Humphrey finished his words when he heard the door opening. Suddenly, Humphrey felt delighted and looked at the doorway.

Victoria and Maximilian went in one after the other. Seeing Maximilian’s intact face, suddenly Humphrey flew into a fury at heart.

What was going on? How come Maximilian was perfectly fine? Had Dallas beaten up the wrong person?

A series of question marks burst out in Humphrey’s mind. However, he couldn’t ask Dallas about the details now, so he could only keep his questions inside him.

Maximilian saw Humphrey sitting on the sofa and greeted him warmly, "Here you are, Boss Humphrey? Your face is getting better so soon"

Humphrey’s cheek kept twitching. He gritted his teeth and straightened his face, not showing his anger.

"My wound doesn’t matter. I heard that you are still unemployed at home, Maximilian. You can’t always stay at home like this. Haven’t you done some job hunting? You will be laughed at if you keep on staying at home being a kept man." Humphrey retorted instantly.

Laura heard that they were talking about Maximilian’s job, and her face darkened immediately.

"Maximilian, you are not young anymore. It’s time for you to take the responsibility of supporting your family. Even if you can’t make a fortune, you should at least earn Sissi’s medical and tuition bills, as well as the living expenses."

"Mom…"

"Stop. Maximilian can’t continue working in that beauty salon anymore. He has to go out and find another job!"

Laura vented all her anger on Maximilian. She had decided to ask Maximilian to find another job, so that she wouldn’t see him at home so often.

In addition, when Maximilian went out to do some dirty and physical work, he wouldn’t have enough time to keep Victoria’s company, so opportunities would be created for Humphrey then.
