    Chapter 422


    Huntley hesitated on the other end of the phone call, prolonging her decision–making process.


    Olivia, growing impatient, couldn’t fathom her indecision and expressed her frustration. “What are you


    hesitating about?” Olivia questioned, her tone tinged with exasperation. “It’s just a man who betrayed


    you. Do you really need to think twice? Send him to prison and enjoy your life with a handsome young


    man.


    “If you can’t let go of him, use voodoo to control him, make him obey you, and if he misbehaves, make


    him suffer, make him desperate, fully domesticate himl “If you don’t know how to do it, I can get you a


    psychologist to teach you how to make Maximus fall in love with you, utterly devoted to you!”


    The others in the room were left utterly dumbfounded by Olivia’s bold statements, and Huntley


    remained silent, overwhelmed by the shock.


    Olivia had always been puzzled by Huntley’s approach. Huntley had resorted to voodoo and other


    investigative methods when it came to others, such as Maximus and Kaira.


    However, when it came to her own situation, she seemed powerless and passive, like a block of wood,


    not taking any action to protect herself.


    Maximus had used her prescription to build his business and hadn’t hidden the fact that he imprisoned


    Kaira, leaving plenty of loopholes.


    Huntley could have easily controlled him with a casual move.


    Yet Huntley had endured until now, leaving Olivia wondering whether Huntley was simply a victim of


    her own weakness or if she possessed an extraordinary level of patience.


    “Miss Taylor.” Elena approached, her voice soft and calming, “Kaira is awake and asking to see you.”


    Olivia nodded and said to Huntley, who was still grappling with her decision. “Have you made up your


    mind?”


    Huntley continued to waver in her judgment, unable to reach a final conclusion.


    Olivia sighed softly, her impatience showing. “Take your time.”


    She hung up the phone and turned to leave the room, heading to the which was conveniently nearby.


    apartment,


    Upon hearing the door open, Kaira, with her bare feet and tear–stained face, rushed out. She


    resembled a frightened little rabbit in her innocence and vulnerability. “Olivia, Olivia, does my master


    know everything?”


    In her frantic questioning, Kaira shook her head repeatedly, burdened with guilt. “It’s all my fault. I didn’t


    hide things well. I didn’t convince Maximus to turn back. Now my master knows everything. She must


    be heartbroken. I’m so sorry.”


    After crying for a while, Kaira suddenly looked up with determination. “Please take me to see Maximus.


    He promised me he wouldn’t divorce my master and that he would treat her well. He can’t back out. He


    must keep his word.” Olivia’s lips curved slightly as she looked down at Kaira. “You silly girl. Your


    master doesn’t want him anymore.”


    “What do you mean?” Kaira froze, confused. She couldn’tprehend how her beloved master, who


    had given up her family’s prescription and wealth for Maximus, could ever give up on him. “You’re lying!


    Your Master loves Maximus so much, she can give up her life for him. How could she not love him?


    You’re lying!” Olivia gracefully seated herself on the luxurious couch, crossing her legs with poise. She


    spoke in a calm and collected manner, addressing Kaira, “Let me be clear: your master has


    unequivocally decided to divorce Maximus. She no longer has affection for him. Consequently, you are


    now free to make your choices.” Kaira’s eyes disyed a hint of bewilderment, her mind racing. Then,


    as if a revtion struck her, she fixed a madly intense gaze on Olivia, filled with an usation of


    deceit, “You’re lying! My master’s love for Maximus runs deep. How could she give up on him? She’s


    shown such profound affection for Maximus that she even shared her ancestral recipe and used all her


    assets to start hispany. She’d give up her life for him. How can she not love him? You’re lying!”


    Kaira couldn’t control her emotions and burst into tears, muttering, “My master raised me from


    childhood, her kindness is beyond measure. I’d sacrifice everything, even my life, for her. As long as


    Maximus doesn’t divorce her, I’m willing toply with his every demand.”


    Olivia tilted her head and exined, “Well, there’s no need for you to do that anymore. I’ve already


    reported Maximus to the police, with substantial evidence of illegal detention and assault. If you decide


    to press charges, he will face. imprisonment.”


    Kaira shivered at the mere mention of jail, apprehension evident on her face. She instinctively shook


    her head, saying, “No, I can’t use him. What would happen to my master if he went to jail? She’d be


    devastated, and I can’t bear that.” “That’s precisely what your master wants. She desires you to use


    him!” Olivia’s tone remained steady, her eyes reflecting the solemnity of the situation.


    “It’s impossible.” Kaira sobbed, “You’re a liar, you’re deceiving me.”


    Regardless of what Olivia said, Kaira refused to believe. She was firmly convinced that her master


    loved Maximus deeply and would never let him go.


    “Miss Taylor, what should we do?” Elena whispered, concerned about Kaira’s stubbornness, as her


    indecision hung heavily in the air.


    The situation seemed to reach an impasse, with Kaira resisting any persuasion, and they needed to


    find a way forward.


    “It’s simple.” Olivia took out her phone, called Huntley, and briefly exined the situation. She asked,


    “Kaira is waiting for your decision. Will you press charges.

    against Maximus?”


    Huntley remained silent for a while before asking lightly. “Kaira, if it’s true that Maximus imprisoned you


    and forced you, then you should tell the police the truth and let him face the consequences.”


    Kaira shrank back, surprised, staring at the phone, as if she had heard something unbelievable.


    Olivia shook the phone and said, “Do you hear that? It’s your master’s decision.”

    Kaira first tilted her head, deep in thought, before suddenlyprehending. She locked eyes with


    Olivia, filled with anger, “Is it you? Have you kidnapped my master and coerced her to say all this? Who


    are you people? Are you Maximus’s business rivals orchestrating this to make him go to jail and take


    over Green Group? How evil you are! How could you do that to us? Do you have any conscience?”


    Moving closer to the phone, Kaira’s voice trembled as she continued, “Master, I know they’re trying to


    deceive me, but don’t worry. I won’t do what they want, and I’ll protect Maximus.”


    Upon hearing this, Olivia couldn’t help but chuckle. She took the phone to her ear and said, “Huntley,


    did you hear that? She’s been pretending to be clueless all along, doing whatever she can to y


    dumb. No matter what, she won’t use Maximus. At this point, don’t you realize whether she’s doing


    it willingly or being coerced?”


    Huntley initially remained silent, but herughter grew louder, a sinister tone. from the depths of hell.


    Her determination to make Maximus pay was unmistakable.


    Herughter sounded sinister and came from the depths of the underworld.


    At this moment, she finally made up her mind. “I want Maximus Eden to pay the price. I want to divorce


    him, ruin his reputation, and make him lose everything. He should be cast into eternal damnation!”


    Her voice was eerie as if she were a demon from hell.


    Kaira’s face was filled with horror.


    Even through the phone, they could feel Huntley’s determination. She had trulye to hate Maximus


    This time, Kaira stopped pretending to be naive and looked up quietly, her heart–shaped face filled with


    sadness. “Are you really going to deal with Maximus?”


    Olivia hung up the phone and nodded. “Yes.”


    Kaira wiped her tears and lowered her eyes, sounding deste. “Our rtionship is veryplicated.


    It’s not just about imprisonment. Regardless of whether it’s for my Master or myself, I won’t use


    him.”


    Her feelings for Maximus wereplicated. Although it had begun under duress,

    after all this time, she couldn’t decipher her true emotions.


    She was torn between not wanting to shatter Maximus and her Master’s marriage and her inability to


    let go of this man.


    Despite the presence of her master and moral constraints, their hearts were


    tightly intertwined. Stripped of worldlyplexities, they might have been the most harmonious couple.


    She didn’t believe she owed her master anything, having endured so much for her. Without a name or


    ce, she had spent three years by Maximus’s side, suffering she considered sufficient repayment for


    her upbringing.


    Now that her master knew the truth and had confronted the situation, she not longer wished to hide.


    At this juncture, they could each go their separate ways.
