Chapter 713
All of a sudden, there were urgent knocks coming from the outside.
As though caught red-handed, Max's hand jolted slightly as he looked out of the door.
A waiter walked in with some appetizers and placed them on the table.
Max smirked. "A fine cup of tea with some fine appetizers," he remarked," what a pleasure. Come, let’s dig in."
Heavy subjects were dropped right after and they drank the tea Max prepared.
Time passed, and it was 9pm.
Mr. Warren and Mr. Hahn bid them farewell. Before they left, they said to Charmine, "You two should talk; Burlington needs developers like you both. It should be a win-win project, making Burlington even more prosperous."
"Okay," Charmine agreed.
She genuinely wanted Burlington to be more prosperous, and she would not allow the developments and economics to end up with an outsider like Max! 1
Charmine saw both men out the door and intended to walk away herself, not wanting to speak to Max.
Supporting his daughter's decision, Adam followed behind her. 1
Just as the father-and-daughter pair reached the door, it closed and locked from outside.
Adam turned to look at Max. "What do you want?"
"Oh, please, don't take me wrong. I'm trying to help. If you walk out like this, I'm afraid you'll both embarrass one another in public," spoke Max nonchalantly.
He leaned back on the chair while playing with his ruby ring. His posture was so elegant and arrogant.
Charmine frowned. Embarrass themselves in public? What was that all about?
At that moment, she suddenly felt her body going soft as she got dizzy. 1
Her body softened and fell onto the sofa by the side.
Meanwhile, Adam also fell beside her.
Unsettled, Charmine glared at him. "What did you do to US?"
"Nothing, I'm just using a special way to speak with you.” Max changed into an even more comfortable posture as he eyed Charmine. "I added some bits into the tea you drank so that the father and daughter could have an enjoyable experience. If you agree to provide US the materials, I can let you all go. Otherwise..." His gaze grew stormy, violence held back in those pupils. "The headlines tomorrow will be the incest between you two!" he sneered.
