Dragon Master novel Maximilian novel Chapter 72

Clap!

 

This slap, in front of the entire office area, was seen and heard by all the employees!

 

Everyone drew in a cold breath of fear, and no one dared to stand up and say anything. They were all shrinking their heads and peeking out.

 

Victoria was confused and her cheeks were on fire.

 

“Are you Victoria?" The woman spoke coldly and questioned her,

 

Victoria asked as she clenched her fist and stared angrily at her opponent,

 

“Who are you? Who gives you the right to hit me?”

 

However, the woman let out a sneer huh, and slapped Victoria's face again while pointing at her nose and bellowing.

 

"My name is Mollie, the new investor and Franklin's girlfriend. I'm warning you, don't think about competing with Franklin for 

the rights of the company in the future; otherwise, I'll beat you up once I see you!"

 

She was so domineering and arrogant! This was the new investor of Yunsheng Pharmaceuticals, Mollie Waldon.

 

Victoria was furious, she didn't expect Mollie to be so arrogant, domineering and brutally unreasonable.

 

It looked like she was only in her early twenties, but she was so stupid to tell from right and wrong.

 

At this very moment, Franklin came out from his office, saw the scene, and pretended to coldly say to Mollie.

 

“Mollie, what's going on? Get back!"

 

Mollie looked like she wasn't afraid of anyone. With her arms around her chest, she coldly glared at Victoria, directly turned around, twisting her ass and left.

 

In the entire office area, there was not a single person who dared to say a word.

 

Franklin hypocritically came over at this moment, and said,

 

“Oh, Vice President Victoria, I am sorry, Mollie was unintentionally. You do not have to care about her, how about I apologize to you for her?"

 

Victoria looked at the sycophantic Franklin with a cold face and said in a cold voice.

 

"You're welcome.” After saying that, Victoria turned around and left the office area and returned to her office.

 

Her assistant came running over and asked with distressed.

 

“Victoria, are you okay? I didn't expect Mollie could be so domineering, and Manager Franklin didn't discipline his arrogant girlfriend."

 

Victoria was so annoyed that she looked in the mirror and saw the red slap marks on her face, and two bloody marks on her 

right cheek from her nails.

 

Wasn't Victoria angry? She was angry.

 

However, she had just been promoted to be the vice president, and Mollie was a new investor with Franklin and Grandpa 

Samuel behind her.

 

She could only endure it.

 

Otherwise, how would she survive in the company after falling out with an investor on her first day as vice president?

 

During lunch time, Victoria came to the hospital in a heavy mood and stayed with Sissi in the ward.

 

While Maximilian came over, Victoria made an excuse to leave. Sissi, who was dressed in a cartoon hospital gown, pulled Maximilian along and peeked at the door, and said in secret voice.

 

“Daddy, Mommy just cried, and I saw Mommy with a bruise on her face.” Now, Sissi could secretly call Maximilian Daddy.

 

With a chill in the corner of his eyes, Maximilian fondled Sissi's little head, and then walked out, only to find Victoria sitting outside in the long corridor.

 

She was still trying desperately to dodge, but Maximilian saw her at a glance.

 

On the right cheek, there were bright red slap marks, especially the two scratches standing out!

 

“Who hit you?!" Maximilian was furious, there was a morbid chill dormant in his eyes with a murderous intent!

 

Someone dared to hit Victoria! It was a move on the head of the Dragon Lord!

 

Bloody hell!!!

 

Maximilian was out of his mind and full of rage at the moment!

 

Victoria was beaten up, and that was his bottom line!

 

Looking at the angry Maximilian, Victoria was busy tugging his arm and explained, "You misunderstood, I just...... just 

accidentally scratched it.”

 

Victoria felt aggrieved. Although she wanted to throw herself into Maximilian’s arms and cry bitterly, she didn't want to bring 

trouble to Maximilian for her sake.

 

After all, that was a new investor of Yunsheng Pharmaceuticals, Franklin's girlfriend, and even Grandpa Samuel had to treat her all properly.

 

She couldn't fight with her.

 

“Is this an accidental scratch?” Maximilian's eyes were stern and he simply didn't believe what Victoria said.

 

"Really, I accidentally scratched my face and it had nothing to do with anyone, so don't ask."

 

Victoria pulled Maximilian and kept calming him down while saying,

 

“Maximilian, don't you believe me?"

 

With one word from her, Maximilian was stunned.

 

He could tell Victoria didn't want to talk about it, then the other party's status must have frightened her.

 

But his woman, Maximilian's woman, was the wife of the Dragon Sect’s young master!

 

Under heaven, no one dared to bully her!

 

Anyone who bullied her had to die!

 

After taking a deep breath, Maximilian reached out and touched her delicate cheek while asking with gentle concern, "Does it hurt?"

 

Victoria's eyes were wet as she shook her head and said, "It's okay, just a little bruise, it won't be a problem.

 

Can you stop being so angry next time? It's weird and scary, I just thought......"

 

Just a moment ago, Victoria clearly felt that when Maximilian became angry. He was like a lion that could not be provoked, 

and the anger suddenly surging up in his body felt like he could tear the world apart.

 

It was terrible!

 

It was so scary! Was he still the same worthless Maximilian who lived with her for four years?

 

Maximilian nodded, but she still couldn't let it go in his heart.

Since Victoria didn't dare to talk about this matter, he would go and check it out by himself.

 

When she went to work in the afternoon, Maximilian personally rode an electric bike and drove Victoria to the company.

 

After watching her delicate back disappear in the company building, Maximilian made a phone call, and it wasn't long before a sweet-looking woman walked out of the doorway.

 

It was Victoria's assistant, Cadence.

 

Cadence was in a bad mood today, and when she saw Maximilian standing by the electric bike from a far away, grinning and waving at her. She hated to turn her head and leave.

 

This guy was so stupid.

 

Cadence knew Maximilian, he was Victoria's husband, a complete wimp, a loser who lived off a woman.

 

So, Cadence didn't have much goodwill towards Maximilian.

 

However, just now, Maximilian suddenly called her and said he was looking for her to ask something urgent.

 

“Hey, what do you want with me?” Cadence wrapped her arms around her chest and looked at Maximilian with a cold attitude, two meters away from him, her eye brows raised, with an appearance that looked down on him.

 

Maximilian didn't care either, and smiled,

 

“Buy you a cup of Hey-Tea.”

 

Did he ask her to drink Hey-Tea?

 

Cadence froze, and suddenly her head went to succulent grapes with cheese cream, but, immediately, she stomped her foot, angrily pointing at Maximilian and said.

 

“Maximilian, I never thought you'd be such a disgusting man! I'm telling you, just give up your dream. I'm not going to betray Victoria, so don't try to pick me up!"

 

She didn't expect Maximilian, who looked honest, was such a lowlife!

 

Scum!

 

Damn, it was gross!

 

Maximilian was also stunned and immediately understood what Cadence was thinking, so he couldn't help but laugh as he explained,

 

“You're overthinking it, I am just looking for you for some help, nothing else.”

 

“Really?” Cadence said suspiciously.

 

“You have to offer me a cup of tea with succulent grapes, cheese and cream in a extra-large cup!”

 

Inside the Hey-Tea shop, Maximilian ordered a cup for Cadence and bought some desserts.

 

As he knew, Cadence was notoriously gluttonous, and especially irresistible to sweets.

 

While looking at Cadence, who had plump breasts and a childish face, stared straight at desserts on the table, Maximilian knew he had made the right choice.

 

Cadence, now practically torn in her heart, forced herself to take her eyes off the desserts and, pouted with a look of loyalty and asked, "What do you want from me?"

 

Maximilian said with a smirk.

 

“Nothing big, just some trivial things. You can eat first, as these are ordered for you.”

 

Cadence gulped, gestured to the desserts, and asked,

 

“Were these all for me?"

 

Maximilian nodded. Cadence hesitated for a moment and didn't think more about it. She picked up the spoon and ate while squinting her eyes in happiness, and stomping her feet. It was so delicious!

 

This girl was so easily bribed.

 

“Maximilian, you can ask whatever you want, as long as it's about the company, I can tell you.”

 

Cadence still had cream in the corners of her mouth.

 

A guest can't speak against his host.

 

After a moment of contemplation, Maximilian asked, "In the morning, was Victoria beaten up by someone?"
