âAfter I slap you, do you come to your senses now?â Benedict sat in the car and said leisurely.
âYes, I was really wrong. Please donât tell my grandfather about it. I was really silly just now.â Regan apologized constantly.
Benedict snorted coldly with discontent. Then he said, âDonât say such pleasantries to me. Itâs easy for me not to tell your grandfather. I think you did know what to do.â
Regan hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice, âMy grandfather really doesnât have a clear attitude. He just said he must wait and see.â
âWait and see? Your grandfather is really thoughtful. I will give you a day. If Maximilian doesnât care, I wonât tell your Grandpa.â Benedict said quietly.
âYou are... standing in line with Maximilian?â Regan asked tentatively.
âCan you guess?â Benedict hung up the phone.
Regan confusedly put the mobile phone beside the bed.
âWhat does he mean? Forget it, think about tomorrow! I was beaten by him, and even went to apologize to him. Itâs really...â
The more Regan thought about it, the angrier he was, but the situation forced him to do it. He had no choice but to suppress his anger. He closed his eyes and started to meditate.
On a new day, Maximilian and Victoria arrived at the company, bathing in the morning sun.
Victoria walked into her office and saw a pile of documents on the desk. She couldnât help rubbing her forehead.
With the development of the Groupâs business, all kinds of things were pouring in like tides, and Victoria had a lot to do.
âSo many documents? You donât have to do everything yourself. Donât get yourself tired.â Maximilian said with a smile.
âI wonât be tired. The company is on track now, so there will be more things to do.â
Victoria sat at her desk and began to work. Maximilian pulled a chair and sat down to help her deal with these documents.
When they were working together, a rush of footsteps came. The secretary pushed the door open and said, âPresident, a man named Regan said he came to apologize to Mr. Lee.â
âWho is Regan?â Victoria asked confusedly.
âHuh?â Maximilian was a little puzzled. If Regan came to revenge, Maximilian could understand. âWhy does he come to apologize?â
âWas Reganâs temperament change greatly after losing the race yesterday? Did he prepare to learn driving skills with me like Canaan?â he thought.
âRegan is the one who raced with me and lost last night. I didnât expect him to come for apology.â
Maximilian explained, thinking about whether Regan really wanted to apologize or used the name of apology to find fault.
âOh.â Victoria made a simple response, and said casually, âGo outside to deal with it. I have too many works here. Donât let him in to disturb me.â
âOK, Iâll go out and see what he wants.â
Maximilian got up and walked out of the office.
In the corridor, he saw Regan with many gifts. Donald followed Regan, and his hands were full of gifts, too. It seemed that they were here to bribe him.
Seeing Maximilian come out, Reganâs eyelids twitched twice fiercely, and then he bitted his teeth and managed a weak smile.
âIâm sorry, Mr. Lee. I was wrong about everything last night. I come to fulfill my promise. I decided to be your running dog.â
When Regan said these words, he cursed Maximilian countless times in his heart.
âItâs a shame! Itâs the shame of my life! I will pay you double!â Regan mused.
There was a ray of hatred in Reganâs eyes, but then he hid the hatred in his heart.
Maximilian rubbed his chin, looked at Regan jokingly, and said slowly, âI donât need a running dog. You are not suitable to be my running dog. Please go back.â
Regan was stunned for a moment, and then a look of shame appeared on his face.
In the past, Regan was sought after everywhere, but at this moment, he was despised as a running dog, which made the arrogant Regan unable to accept.
âWhat do you mean? Iâm...â Regan took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, lowered his head and said, âIâm really here to apologize to you, and Iâm willing to be your running dog.â
âYouâre not willing at all. Iâm afraid I mistake a ferocious jackal for a docile dog. If I keep it at home, it will bring me trouble.â
Donald gave a hollow laugh and spoke for Regan, âWhat happened is just misunderstanding. Mr. Lee was broad-minded. Regan comes to apologize to you in person. Mr. Lee, please give him a chance.â
âWho are you? Are you qualified to speak here?â Maximilian said coldly.
âI, Iâm, Iâm Reganâs friend.â Donald stammered and was scared by Maximilianâs momentum.
Giving Regan a helpless look, Donald silently stepped back. He made up his mind not to get involved.
Ordinary people often ended up in misery if they got involved in the contradiction between powerful people. If the grandson of Head of dragon lords and the son of Dragon Emperor really fought against each other, no matter who Donald helped, it was not good for him.
Reganâs eyes closed tightly. If it werenât for the threat of Benedict, he would have left long ago.
âMr. Lee, what can I do to ask for your forgiveness? If you say it, I will do as you say, even if you ask me to kneel down and kowtow to you.â
âI wonder why you apologized to me. Itâs not your style.â
Regan was silent for a moment, and then said, âItâs Master Benedict who forced me. I have no choice but to apologize to you. Are you satisfied?â
âOh, so it is. I never accept apology with no sincerity. You can go away.â
Maximilian was about to return to the office. Regan threw away his gifs and rushed to Maximilian, trying to hold his arm.
A cold light flashed in Maximilianâs eyes, and then he kicked Reganâs thigh. The latter was kicked out.
âGet out of here, do you hear me? Or Iâll be rude to you.â
Regan half knelt on the ground in pain and said with a cry, âPlease forgive me, Mr. Lee. Please.â
âI forgive you. Go away. Donât disturb me again.â
After that, Maximilian went back to the office and slammed the door shut.
Donald threw away the things in his hand to help Regan who was half kneeling up.
âWhat are you doing? You are making trouble for yourself.â
âYou think Iâm willing to do this? If Benedict, the old bastard, called my grandfather, Iâm afraid my grandfather would come to punish me immediately. I donât want to be locked up in the dungeon at home!â
âAlas, every family has problems.â Donald sighed and helped Regan leave quickly.
