Barney cursed Maximilian along the way after he was arrested by the patrolmen. Barney was so dedicated to acting just now that he thought if he asked Maximilian to be his foster father, showing his loyalty, Maximilian would let go of him.
So at this moment, Barney broke down emotionally when he was arrested. He cursed Maximilian to relieve the sadness and fear in his heart.
Connor silently watched Barney and his men being taken away and felt that he had a better understanding of Maximilian.
Maximilian took out his cell phone and dialed Victoriaâs number, âHoney, the people behind the scenes have already been taken away. Recently, no one dares to go to the raw material factory to make trouble.â
âWhat?â
Victoria was surprised. But when she thought of Maximilianâs amazing combat skills, she suddenly felt relieved.
âYou... Are you okay?â Victoria asked nervously.
âIâm fine. He is just a fat man. I defeated him easily and then sent him to the patrol.â Maximilian said lightly.
âOh, thatâs good. In this case, I donât have to take care of the raw material factory anymore. How about we go to the hospital to see Sissi this afternoon?â
âOkay, I miss Sissi too. Iâll see you in the hospital later.â
After Maximilian hung up the phone, Connor bowed and said, âMr. Maximilian, Iâll take you to the hospital.â
âOkay.â
Maximilian stood up and walked out. Connor followed behind Maximilian like a housekeeper.
Lily-Mae, who was wearing a big red wind coat, led her four-year-old son Hanks into the hospital.
In the corridor of the hospital, Hanks saw Sissi playing alone and immediately shook off Lily-Maeâs hand.
âHanks, what are you doing?â
âIâm going to play with the little sister.â
Lily-Mae glanced at Sissi and curled her lips disdainfully, âDonât play with that stinky girl. Beware of infectious diseases.â
Sissi was extremely angry when she heard Lily-Maeâs words.
âDo you have an infectious disease?â
Standing in front of Sissi, Hanks said proudly with his head held high.
âI donât.â Sissi turned around and ignored Hanks.
Hanks glared at Sissiâs back, stretched out his hands, and punched Sissiâs back suddenly. This punch made Sissi lean against the wall of the aisle.
Sissi felt so painful that she couldnât help shedding tears, âWhy did you hit me?â
âYou have an infectious disease, so you are a scourge. Iâm hitting the scourge. As long as you die, others will not be infected.â Hanks cursed and spit at Sissi.
âYou are the scourge. You are the scourge.â Sissi shaved her hands and was about to scratch Hanksâs face.
Hanks didnât retreat cleanly and fell onto the ground.
When Lily-Mae saw her son fall, she rushed over and yelled at Sissi, âWhere are your parents? How could you be so savage and dare to push my son? I canât imagine what youâll look like when you grow up.â
Sissi shrank her neck, looked at Lily-Mae, and cried out of fright by Lily-Maeâs ferocious appearance.
âItâs a common occurrence for children to play like this. This little girlâs parents are not always here and she is a sensible child. Donât yell at her like that.â The people on the side of the ward said.
âItâs none of your business. My son fell to the ground because of this wild girl. What if he gets injured?
Are you responsible for it? Do you know who I am? Do you know who my sonâs father is? Do you know who my brother is? If you offend our family, donât even think about seeing a doctor for the rest of your life!â
Lily-Mae yelled and frightened Sissiâs inmates. They all retracted into the ward and didnât dare to speak anymore.
Lily-Mae turned her head and grabbed Sissi by the collar. She shook Sissi desperately and roared, âWild child, your parents gave birth to you but not raised you properly! My son is kind enough to play with you. How dare you push him? I will teach you a lesson today. Hanks, come here and beat her hard!â
âHanks, remember what I taught you. Donât be afraid of others when you go out. If someone dares to offend you, you can beat him to death. If something goes wrong, our family will be able to solve it. We canât be bullied by others!â
Sissi cried and struggled, but couldnât get rid of Lily-Maeâs hand at all.
âLet me go. I have parents. He fell over by himself. He hit me first. I didnât touch him at all. You are a bad guy. Both of you are bad guys.â Sissi cried, teary and pitiful.
âYou cheeky girl! How dare you say that I am a bad guy? You are so rude! I must give you a lesson and let you know what upbringing is!â
Lily-Mae got annoyed and wanted to reach out her hand to slap Sissiâs face, but as soon as she raised her hand, she felt that her wrist was being grabbed.
âWho the hell dare to stop me?â Lily-Mae turned her head, looked at Maximilian who was holding her wrist and shouted angrily, âHurry up and let me go. Mind your own business. If you donât let go of me, I will get your family ruined!â
Maximilian didnât speak. His eyes were cold and gloomy!
Crack! He raised his hand and slapped Lily-Maeâs face so hard that Lily-Mae directly fell over and sat on the ground.
Victoria rushed over from behind and hugged Sissi.
âSissi, mom is here. Are you okay?â Victoria asked anxiously.
Sissi looked at Maximilian with stars in her big eyes, âDaddy is awesome.â
âSissi, good girl. Honey, you take Sissi to sit nearby. I will talk to this stubborn lady.â
Maximilian smiled softly and then stared at Lily-Mae with cold eyes.
âTalk? Fuck! How dare you beat me? I must teach a lesson to you. Not only your daughter, but you are barbarians. You are just poor and miserable. Hurry back to your village. People like you uneducated are not qualified to stay here!â
Lily-Mae roared, clutching her hot cheeks.
Maximilian smiled faintly, âYou are the one who is uncivilized. Both you and your son should apologize to my daughter.â
âApologize? Your daughter pushed my son over and you slapped me. You all should kneel and apologize! If you donât apologize today, I will immediately let you get out of the hospital and you will have nowhere else to go or see a doctor in H City!â
Lily-Mae was extremely angry. No one dared to slap her for so many years. Damn it! Damn it!
âLet me give you one last chance! If you and your son donât apologize, I donât mind being more brutal.â
Maximilian said coldly.
âNo kidding. Do you think you are qualified to give us one last chance? I wonât apologize to your shit daughter!â Lily-Mae held her head high, full of anger.
Crack! Maximilian slapped Lily-Mae on the other cheek, and Lily-Mae was completely dumbfounded.
âYou! Since you are so brutal, donât blame me for being unreasonable! Wait, you will kneel and beg me because of slapping me!â
After speaking harshly to Maximilian, Lily-Mae turned to look at the patients in the ward and said with tears in her eyes, âYou all have seen it. He slapped a weak woman and bullied our family. You must be my witness!â
The patients all turned around and none of them cared about Lily-Mae.
Lily-Mae was even more annoyed when she saw this. She took out her mobile phone, pointed at Maximilian, and shouted, âYou rubbish, wait and see! You are all going to die!â
