Maximus thought, “As soon as she realized I didn’te home, couldn’t wait toe knocking, and
she even brought so many helpers!”
Maximus chuckled at the audacity of Huntley’s actions, If Huntley were to go berserk, tearing down the
veil of modesty, exposing their secrets to the public, and maybe even giving him a well–deserved p,
he might have a shred of respect left for her.
But Huntley remained timid, clinging to him like a lifeline.
Maximus was growing increasingly impatient.
He coldly said, “Don’t bother,” and then hung up the phone without hesitation. On the other end of the
line, his secretary was almost in tears. He couldn’t help but wonder, “Mr. Frank, would it hurt to let me
finish speaking? Didn’t I say ‘a group? Do you understand the meaning of ‘a group‘? It means three or
more people, which is quite an understatement.”
The secretary lowered his head, nced up, and discreetly counted in his mind: 1, 2, 3… 8, 9, 10… 18
people, 18 people!
This was beyond being just a “group“; it had turned into a full–fledged
organization!
N?velDrama.Org is the owner.
The secretary trembled and looked at the woman in front of him, who appeared friendly and warm. “Mr.
Frank said he has some business to attend to and will be back shortly. You can wait here.”
Elena frowned and turned to Olivia, asking, “Miss Taylor, are we supposed to wait?”
Olivia raised her gaze nonchntly and replied, “Go to Maximus’s apartment.” With those words, the
group of people left in an organized manner.
The secretary breathed a sigh of relief and made another call to Maximus.
On the other end of the line, Maximus was on the verge of anger. “Didn’t I tell you not to call me again?
Are you trying to get yourself killed?”
“Mr. Frank,” the secretary hurriedly interjected before Maximus could hang up, “that group of people is
heading to your apartment, and they’ve already left. Be careful.”
“What?” Maximus stood up, a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Now that he had calmed down, he walked over to the sofa, sat down, and asked, “Tell me in detail,
what’s going on over there?”
The secretary nodded and said, “I counted a total of 18 people, led by a woman. they all call Miss
Taylor. She has a strong presence, and there’s also a Ms. Wayne who appears to be her assistant.
They’re on their way to your apartment. It
voucher
shouldn’t take them more than 10 minutes to arrive. Mr. Frank, with that many people, you should
prepare early.”
“Many people?” Maximus coldly sneered, his tone tinged with sarcasm. “This is awful society. What
does it matter if there are many people? Are they nning to use force? I won’t meet with them for the
time being.”
He did not care about these people at all. If they were on the way, so be it. If they arrived, they could
only stand at the gate.
He would not see them even for a second!
Maximus hung up the phone decisively and turned to walk towards Kaira.
Before he reached the bedside, there was a loud pounding on the door.
Maximus’s face turned icy, and his expression was infuriated. He thought, “These people are really
going too far! They need a lesson!”
He picked up his phone, ready to call the building’s security to have them remove this group.
But before he could dial, the intruders had already broken in. “Don’t move, we are the police! We’ve
received a report that you’ve been imprisoning a minor and uwfully detaining her.”
The leading police officer, after disying his credentials, wasted no time in cing handcuffs on
Maximus‘ wrists and escorting him out. Following his exit, a team of female officers entered the scene
to search for Kaira.
Inside the bedroom, Kaira remained bewildered, wrapped in her nket. Her eyes widened in
innocence, resembling a startled rabbit. She asked, “What’s happening? Has something gone wrong?”
Olivia maneuvered through the crowd and approached her, speaking soothingly, “Kaira, I am Huntley’s
associate. I’vee to take you away. Don’t be afraid; Maximus, who harmed you, has been
apprehended.”
Kaira’s expression shifted rapidly. Subconsciously, she looked around for Maximus but was gently
restrained by Olivia. Olivia’s voice was incredibly gentle as she said, “Don’t be scared; that demon is
gone now. You’re safe.”
“No, it’s not like that,” Kaira shook her head, tears welling up. She wanted to exin that nobody had
harmed her, but she couldn’t utter a word as Olivia. continuously interrupted her.
She felt helpless and clung to Olivia’s sleeve, her gaze pleading.
“Poor child, you’re overwhelmed with joy, Olivia said while stroking Kaira’s soft hair. She then turned to
a nearby female officer and said, “Officer, Kaira is suffering from severe psychological distress. I’ll
comfort her for now. Can we arrange for her to provide a statement at the police station tomorrow?”
The officer looked at Kaira withpassion and agreed, “Of course. Take good care of her and ensure
there’s no further harm.”
?
Once the police left, Olivia had Kaira take a sleeping pill and coaxed her into sleep. Then she moved to
the living room to make phone calls to various media outlets.
In no time, news of Mr. Frank from Max Group being arrested for illegal. detention and assault on a
minor had spread like wildfire. Local media outlets in Nebnd went into a frenzy, and nearly all
business partners began canceling contracts and returning goods. The once–mighty conglomerate was
teetering on the edge of copse.
The stock of Max Group plummeted, and nearly all business partners began. canceling contracts and
returning goods, creating a moment of crisis as the once–mighty conglomerate teetered on the brink of
copse.
The group’s shareholders and executives were at a loss. They were like a headless dragon, powerless
and desperate.
At this critical moment, Olivia aggressively acquired a significant stake in Max Group, stabilizing the
company’s situation. She also had Elena appear at thepany in Huntley’s name to reassure
employees.
Regardless of how one looked at it, Huntley was officially Maximus’s wife now. Maximus had risen to
prominence after their marriage, and the prescriptions he used belonged to Huntley. Most of the wealth
he had umted was rightfully Huntley’s, and no one could deny this fact.
Olivia had only employed a few strategies, and now Max Group was under Huntley’s control.
Maximus held 42% of thepany’s shares. If Huntley divorced him, she would be entitled to 21%,
and with Olivia holding 30%, Huntley would be the majority shareholder.
In less than two days since arriving in Yebury City, Olivia had managed to deal with Maximus.
Now, she sat in Maximus’s office, leaning back in therge boss’s chair. After a brief contemtion, she
called Huntley, “Maximus has been arrested, Kaira is at a loss, and Max Group is under your control.
Tell me, what do you want, and what do you wish to do? I can handle it all for you.”
Huntley was dumbfounded, unsure of what Olivia was talking about and what had happened in Yebury
City. She stammered, “How did this happen so quickly?” Olivia stopped spinning in the chair, her gaze
calm. She calmly asked in return, “Is ‘quick‘ not good? Tell me, what’s your n for the next steps?”
Huntley’s mind was in chaos. She hadn’t figured out her next move yet. At this moment, she just
wanted to know if Kaira had been willing or coerced.
She voiced her thoughts.
Olivia furrowed her brow, her patience wearing thin. She said, “Do you really need to ask such
questions? Can’t you see by now? Kaira may have been initially
coerced and somewhat unwilling, but they’ve been together for three years, and during that time, she
never attempted to escape. Is it her foolishness or yours? At this point, you’re still making excuses for
her!”
Huntley’s face turned pale, and she fell into silence.
