She stretched out her hand and asked for money. This was Laura.
A brazen woman.
Maximilian was dumbfounded, not knowing what to say, and his gaze was shifted to Victoria.
Victoria came over and said coldly, "Mom, what are you doing? Even if this money is in Maximilian's hand, he can't give it to you. It's for Sissi's treatment."
Victoria knew Maximilian’s personality well, as he must have said $200,000 just to deal with Laura.
But he didn't expect her mother would ask for money directly.
When Laura heard this, her face immediately became ugly. She got up and said unreasonably, “I didn't say I wouldn't treat Sissi. The money will go to my saving account first. If you want to use it, just tell me.”
Victoria was furious, and she knew they could not give the money to her Mom no matter what.
There was no Sissi in Laura's heart.
Once the money was in her hands, it would not be easy to get it back.
Seeing Victoria's refusal, Laura turned her head to Maximilian and asked in an imperious manner, “Maximilian, I'm asking you, will you give me the money for safekeeping?"
She was forcing him to make a decision right now.
Maximilian was helpless and silently pulled out the long-prepared card.
Since the incident in the bank, Maximilian prepared this card. And this card had a hundred thousand or two hundred thousand dollars in it.
Snap!
Before Victoria could make a move, Laura directly snatched the card from him, and said, "This is what you should do.”
And then, she took the card happily in her hand, turned around, and twisted her fat ass into the bedroom.
When she came out again, Maximilian and Victoria had already left.
“Where are they?” Laura said with a cold and puzzled face.
Marcus sighed helplessly and said, "They went back to their room because of you.”
Laura deflated her mouth and muttered, "I just took $200,000 from them. What? I can't take this money? I am keeping it for their goods. If this money is in Maximilian’s hand, maybe he will loses it.”
Laura despised Maximilian, and naturally she could not put the money on him.
“And you should find out for me where Wilfred's company is in H City. I will go there tomorrow. This is only $200,000. He is so rich, and he should at least give me a million dollars.” Laura said, as she already had an idea in mind.
Such a cash cow, absolutely she could not just let him go.
“If you want to investigate him, you do it by yourself. I don't have time to fool around with you.” Marcus had a headache. He took off his reading glasses and went straight into the bedroom.
“Marcus, what do you mean? Is this nonsense? I do this for this family! If you take care of your daughter, you go and ask her to divorce Maximilian.”
Laura was cursing and arguing.
Inside the bedroom, Victoria sat at the head of the bed, sulking. What her mother just did made her feel too humiliated.
“Maximilian, don't blame my mom, she's just that kind of person.” Victoria said, “Did you really get that card from Mr. Wilfred?”
Maximilian nodded with a smile and said, “Well, don't worry, there's money in it.”
Victoria held her mouth and looked at Maximilian with wet eyes. She suddenly rushed to him and hugged him, and said with tears, “I thought you were going to be arrested.”
Maximilian was stunned, and then he gently patted Victoria's back and said, “Little fool, I'm out now. It's nothing, just a misunderstanding.”
Victoria nodded her head.
Maximilian was happy now. He hadn't hugged his wife so intimately for a long time. Her body was warm, and he was reluctant to let her go.
The candlelight dinner was scheduled for tonight. But because of the incident, it had to be postponed.
The next day, Maximilian did not need to go to work in the store, as Steven took care of everything, and he believed in Steven.
For the first time, Iris took the initiative to ask Maximilian out.
The two met at the casino, and Iris brought several friends with her.
“Maximilian, what took you so long?”
When Iris saw Maximilian walking slowly, she looked slightly cold and stared at Maximilian with an unpleasant expression.
Maximilian twisted his eyebrows, looked around, and said suspiciously, "What do you want me for?"
Iris chuckled and said, “Hang out with you. Let me take you to meet my friends.”
Was Iris's purpose as simple as hanging out with Maximilian?
Of course not.
When her friends saw Maximilian, they were disgusted and had sarcasm written all over their faces.
“Iris, this is the wimp son-in-law of your family? He really has a personality. Is beggar style popular now?”
“Iris, you're not fooling us, right? He looks like a poor loser. How can he invite us to play for a day?"
"Forget it, let's go back. What a bummer! I am too embarrassed to stay with this kind of guy.”
A few people said, but they kept satirizing Maximilian.
Shitt, this man looked poor and broken!
His feet were wearing a pair of dirty sneakers. His blue sweatshirt was so white after too much washing. And he looked out of place with them.
Seeing everyone despise on Maximilian, the corners of Iris's mouth curled up. But she retorted hypocritically, “What do you know? Maximilian is great! Do you know Lasdun? Manager Thomas respects him like a VIP guest.”
After that, Maximilian went to New Hemp Group and met with Wilfred.
"Young master, I have prepared the birthday gift you want. Do I need to open it for you?"
Wilfred was full of respect. The blonde secretary behind him held a fist-sized brocade box in her hand. The brocade box was very delicate, and it could tell that the content in the box was valuable.
Maximilian took it over and said, "No necessary. It's just a gift. This box is too outstanding; change it to an ordinary one.”
Immediately, the female secretary replaced it with an ordinary box. And Maximilian took it in his hand, and only then he nodded reassuringly.
"Okay, then I'll go back first.” Maximilian got up. And when he walked to the door, he suddenly stopped and asked slowly, “When will the Dragon Queen arrive in H City?”
“Not sure, no one knows the Dragon Queen's itinerary.” Wilfred answered and a touch of worry surfaced on his face.
Maximilian didn't say anything and left.
Today, Laura went out early. She worn a flowery plaid shirt, carried the black-bone chicken soup that she had stewed in her hands, and took a taxi to New Hemp Group.
She was so happy and walked with high spirits.
Why would Laura come here? Naturally, she wanted to see Wilfred.
She thought clearly. She would befriend Wilfred, and then ask him for money!
Maximilian helped him, and no matter what, $200,000 was too little.
Maximilian was embarrassed to ask for money, but Laura could do it.
She would not ask too much, just a million dollars. If Wilfred did not give her the money, she would make trouble for him.
Wilfred had such a large company, and he was the richest man in the Chuzhou region. He was so rich, so he would not care about a million dollars at all.
In front of the group building, Laura got out of the car and saw the entrance, when a group of people came out.
It's Wilfred!
Laura's eyes shone brightly, and she immediately rushed over.
But, suddenly! Laura stopped in her tracks.
Wasn't that man beside Wilfred Maximilian? How could that loser come here today?
Laura hurriedly hid aside, pouting her fat ass and looking out with her head. She found that Wilfred invited Maximilian into the Rolls Royce car!
That's right, he was invited!
She saw clearly that Wilfred treated Maximilian with respect. He bent down and personally opened the door for Maximilian.
How was this ... this possible?
Was he her waste son-in-law, Maximilian?
