Drew slapped his face fiercely until he saw stars dancing before his eyes.
âMaximillian, I am wrong. Members of the Wright Family were all wrong. Please give us a chance to make it up. We will never make such a mistake again.â said Drew humbly.
âYou have got a good attitude. The commencement date will be settled down and the advance payment will arrive tomorrow. Make sure the construction is qualified. If there is any problem of quality, donât blame my ruthlessness.â
Maximilian didnât want to do anything to Drew. At that moment, given Drewâs good attitude, Maximilian planned to give him a chance. After all, Drew was Victoriaâs cousin. There was no need to force him into a dead-end.
Drew nodded his head heavily and said seriously, âRest assured, Maximilian. Just wait and see my performance.â
âI hope you forget what you have seen in the office when you are out. Donât tell anyone what has happened in the room.â Maximilian looked at Drew coldly.
Drew went blank for a moment and then raised his fingers swearing to the heaven, âI swear if I reveal your identity to others, I will get struck by the thunder!â
Maximilian smiled and nodded his head. He waved his hand.
âMaximilian, should we wait for you?â Drew said in a low voice.
âNope,â Maximilian replied.
Drew didnât say anything again and stepped back to the door. And then he went out straightly.
Opening the door and walking out of the office, Drew thought what had happened was like a dream that was amazing and unbelievable.
Alfie and Tommy walked to Drew and inquired impatiently about the result.
âBrother, how is it going? Has the contract been signed? Where is the crap, Maximilian? Why didnât he come out with you?â Alfie asked.
Drew glared at Alfie and said strictly,â Be respectful to Maximilian from now on. Donât call him a crap.
You should call him brother.â
âWhy are you so nervous? I will never call him brother. I never have such a crap as my brother,â Alfie mumbled.
âIf you want to die, donât make families die with you. If you still show no respect to Maximilian, I will go back and talk to grandfather, and asked him to expel you from our family.
Drew was vexed. It was extremely difficult for him to make his family members respect Maximilian and at the same time keep Maximilianâs identity a secret.
No matter how difficult it was for Drew, he must do it well. Because once Maximilian was angry, the Wright Family would be wiped out in one minute.
âBrother, are you mad? Is the mysterious boss Maximilianâs lost father? Or what he did scare you like this?â
Drew slapped Alfie fiercely and pointed to his face, saying, âDo you see my face? It was slapped by myself. Iâm not willing to do this. Fuck! Watch your mouth. If you show no respect to Maximilian again, I will be the first one to beat you to death.â
Alfie was completely scared by his brother and looked at him in astonishment. He couldnât figure out what had happened.
âDrew, calm down. Donât let others laugh at you. If the contract is signed, letâs go back,â Tommy said.
Drew snorted and walked to the elevator. Tommy along with Alfie went away with Drew.
The three got out of the office building and went onto their car. Alfie said unhappily, âBrother, you have slapped me due to Maximilian, the crap. You must give me an explanation.â
âIs your brain filled with shit? At the birthday party, three of the four masters in H City showed up. And Wilfred picked up Maximilian in person. Are you blind?â Drew said with resentment.
When he spoke, Drew felt a chill in his heart. He had never thought about what happened carefully.
Now, he was scared.
âThese are all coincidences. He is just a crap. If he was really supported by so many big names, he would have got rid of the name of crap already.â Alfie argued.
âHowever, they all came for Maximilian, didnât they?â
âYes, they did,â Alfie said with his head bent. It was true.
âGiven Wilfredâs status, though you know him, can you get his help and let him arrange a meeting for you? Think about it. Maximilian is able to get Wilfredâs help, which demonstrates that he is important for Wilfred.â
âSo, Connorâs real aim is to please Maximilian. At least, Maximilian can depend on Wilfredâs wealth and power. With the name of a crap, Maximilian never refutes it. Perhaps he has been pretending to be useless. Things canât be seen from the surface. You should think about it carefully.â
Alfie was completely silent due to Drewâs reasoning. Through careful consideration, Alfie was trembling in fear and.
âDrew, what did the chairman say?â
The atmosphere was depressing. so he changed the topic.
âMaximilian made use of Wilfredâs help and listed lots of advantages of us, so the chairman has given us the promise that the project will start in a few days and the advance payment will be wired to our account tomorrow.â
After hearing the fake news Drew said, Alfie and Tommy went blank for a moment. And then they understood why Drewâs attitude toward Maximilian had changed dramatically.
Drew was still worried that the two were not able to understand him, so he continued,â Do you think that the contract is a windfall? No, I have learned the truth.â
âBrother, itâs Maximilian⦠umm, he awarded the contract to you?â said Alfie nervously.
âYes. It is Maximilianâs gift for grandfatherâs birthday, which was sent through my hand. Itâs so ridiculous that I was happy then. Now I am just a fool.â Drew said with a wry smirk.
âGosh! It is so cool. Whatâs the real status of Maximilian?â
âI donât know. Go back and prepare for the commencement. From now on, you should be respectful to Maximilian. Donât annoy him anymore. If you make him angry, the Wright family will go down.â
Drew gave them warning again in the car, which was driven by Tommy, heading back to the Wright Group.
Maximilian stayed in the office for a while and received a call from Victoria.
âDarling, whatâs up? You must be missing me â Maximilian said with smile.
âNo, itâs about Kroopf. He came to our company again for details of the cooperation. Uncle and others want to build a factory on the land given by Gibson. I think you should come and discuss about it.â
Victoria dared not address issues related to that land on her own.
Maximilian squinted and said, âOk, I am coming.â
