Keeping secrets was not difficult for Maximilian. Besides, Maximilian was even more curious about it since Aston was so serious.
“It’s better if you can do that. But even if you can’t, that’s okay too, because no one will believe you.” Aston straightened his body and turned serious. “Do you know about the Dragon Sect?”
Maximilian froze for a moment, and then he narrowed his eyes.
“I have heard some stories about it. It seems to be a very big force. “
“It is quite a force. But there are more organizations like it. There is also one behind my family. But I won’t tell you much about it. “
He didn’t tell which organization was behind his family because he wanted Maximilian to make a guess. It was a common method for him to use and the outcome always turned out to be better than he just told everything
Maximilian smiled and began thinking about organizations that were as big as the Dragon Sect.
It seemed that no organizations in this county could rival with the Dragon Sect. Only several organizations in other countries were as strong. He thought perhaps the Brooks Family swore their loyalty to one of these organizations or they might even been manipulated by these organizations.
“I’m not interested in your family background. Let’s talk about the order. I’m more interested in money.” Maximilian said calmly.
Aston felt frustrated, as he had not expected that Maximilian was not curious about it.
“Alright. I got a mission recently and our goal is to assassinate Master Benedict, an important figure in the Dragon Sect. He is one of the eight Dragon Lords, so he must be well-protected. So I want to use the best man I can find.”
“If you can join me for this task, I can be more confident. So I’d like to invite you to this mission.”
Maximilian was truly interested when hearing this.
Master Benedict was a firm supporter of the Dragon Queen. Now he was in City H for her. And the appearance of Kroopf was another explanation for it.
Maximilian wondered how Dragon Queen would react if Master Benedict was killed.
Noticing that Maximilian was pondering, Aston stopped talking, and waited silently.
Maximilian pondered for a moment and thought he could join this assassination. If he could find a chance to talk to Master Benedict alone, he could get more information.
“I’m interested. But shouldn’t you show some sincerity?”
Aston raised his eyebrows and smiled, “Of course. If you join us, I will send Leighton to accompany his son and his family will no longer be your threat. Besides, the 20 million dollars he used to hire killer will also be given to you.”
Aston used Leighton’s life and money as a chip to curry favor with Maximilian. By doing so, he can make a big deal of money and interfere election of the White Family’s heir. So it would not take long before the White Family became his family’s dependency. It was almost the perfect decision that gave him the most benefit.
Maximilian nodded with a smile, “Okay. So before the cooperation, I hope I can hear that man’s obituary.”
“No problem. I will be working on it now. I’ll meet you here tomorrow to make a plan.” Aston snapped his fingers with excitement.
