Chapter 154: Be Responsible
Victoria had heard of Marsh and how parsimonious he was.
“It seemed that you didn''t care about your mother being beaten at all." Maximilian asked in confusion.
Victoria rolled her eyes and said in a sulk, "Why should I? Should Iin about my mother for
helping Humphrey or
should I hate you for not having taken good care of my mother?”
Victoria was deliberately pretending not to care about Laura being pped, but Maximilian mentioned
it. Victoria would feel
ufortable no matter which side she took.
Maximilian scratched his head awkwardly, and realized he had said something wrong again.
"Oh, actually I didn''t have the time to react, and when I realized it, it was already toote.” Maximilian
exined in a low
voice.
Victoria saw Maximilian''s reaction andughed out. "You don''t need to exin it. Just tell me how you
made him pay you
ten times the money. I never knew you are so capable."
"I''m not the capable one... I stole my friend''s thunder and frightened Marsh with his name.” Maximilian
exined in a low
voice.
Victoria was silent for a while, and replied in a low voice, "You should stop being the fool who always
rushes to the fore.
Help her secretly if you really want to, or you would always getined even if you are helping
those people.”
Victoria had seen enough of that. Maximilian was already in an awkward position in the family, and
after what happened
earlier today, Laura would definitely make a scene as soon as they went home.
Thinking about how Laura forced her to divorce Maximilian gave Victoria a headache.
Maximilian leaned on the back of the seat and said in a dull voice, "Fine. I won''t help anyone else
then... I''ll just take care of
myself.”
Seeing Maximilian''s depression, Victoria stopped talking. They fell silent in the car.
It didn''t take long before the car arrived at the gate of the raw material factory.
They saw dozens of punks squatting at the entrance. Victoria frowned and muttered, "What are they
doing here? Why are
they blocking the gate?"
Maximilian nced at those punks and sneer, "There must be a moreplicated reason which
caused the factory to shut
down. There''s someone behind this.”
"You have watched too many movies. No one in real life would do that...e with me and see what''s
going on." Victoria
said.
Maximilian hurriedly got out of the car and stood beside Victoria. Together, they walked toward those
punks, who were
staring at Victoria with horny eyes. They were drooling at this extraordinarily beautiful woman.
"Damn, she''s so beautiful! She''s much prettier than most actresses!"
"I''d like to trade ten years of my life with Satan for a chance to sleep with her!"
"The chance has alreadye! We''re here to block the entrance, and as soon as she''s here, we can
take the chance and
take advantage of her.’
Their eyes lit up. The leader, Josiah, nick-named Tiger, spit the half cigarette in his mouth. He grinned
ear to ear and said,
"Time to move, buddies! The sunshine is here to have a good time with us, and let''s enjoy our time with
her!"

"That''s right! Let''s bring the man under control first when Josiah enjoys the beauty. Then let''s take
turns to..."
“Ah ha.” Josiahughed wildly and with an erotic face, and Then he swaggered to Victoria.
Victoria stopped her pace because she felt Josiah and his men definitely had ill intentions. She felt a
little panic.
Maximilian stepped forward and stood in front of Victoria. Then he whispered, "Don''t worry, I''m here for
you."
Hearing that, Victoria felt assured. It always felt nice to be protected by someone. However, there were
ten more men in
front of her and all she had was Maximilian. That protection felt very weak.
"Be careful, once they made a strike, we''ll run as fast as we can." Victoria said.
"You run first, and I''ll go after you." Maximilian turned over andughed.
Victoria felt warm because for a moment she felt Maximilian was finally not a coward, and was acting
like a real man.
Josiah caught a glimpse at Maximilian and said proudly, "I''ll give you ten seconds to get your butt out of
here, or you
wouldn''t want to know what will happen.”
"Who are you people and why are you blocking the door here?" Victoria asked from behind Maximilian.
“I''m the person in charge of the street, and you didn''t pay me enough before you use this ce. I''m
here with my buddies
to collect the debt. We will not charge you if you sleep with us... is that OK?” Josiah mocked.
"That''s right! We won''t charge you a penny if you go with us!”
"Forget about the debt! We''ll feed you nicely and give the best life you could ever live."
Josiah and the others were like cats in heat. All they had in mind was to drag Victoria away and have
some fun.
"You bastards!" Victoria huffed and scolded, "Cut your filthy talk there! If you don''t leave, I''ll call the
police.”
“Oh, I''m so scared, my beauty! Do you really think they would throw me in jail? The only reason why I
am here is that I''m not
afraid of them at all."
As Josiah said that, he red at Maximilian because this young man was blocking his way to Victoria.
"You brat! Did you hear what I said? Ten seconds is up, and if you do not leave, I will beat the hell out
of you!"
When Josiah was speaking, several guys had already surrounded Maximilian. It seemed that they
would move at any time.
“I''ll give you one more chance, get out in ten seconds.” Maximilian said coldly.
Josiahughed out with anger, and shouted loudly, "Move! Cripple the man and take the woman!"
“Ah! Run! Maximilian, run!" Victoria screamed and backed up in a panic.
But after Victoria had retreated two steps, she was so stunned to see that Maximilian had rushed to
Josiah.
Josiah and his people were nothing but street punks who knew nothing about how to fight in the right
way. They always
bullied others because they could rely on the pure number of the members. They could never be
Maximilian''s match.
Maximilian was like a wolf hunting a flock of sheep. He beat Josiah and others so hard and they didn''t
even have the
chance to fight back. Maximilian finally realized that these people really didn''t know how to fight.
An experienced fighter would just jump over and tackled Maximilian to buy some time for his men. But
Josiah’s
subordinates were running away when they saw how fierce Maximilian was.
After Maximilian knocked down a few people, he rushed towards Josiah, whose face paled and he
screamed in fear, "No! I
think we should talk!"
Boom! Instead of talking, Maximilian waved his fist, because he needed to teach him a bloody lesson.
Josiah felt a pain in his nose and head, and he shook his head and covered his bleeding nose. Now he
couldn''t feel worse.
“I''ll give you ten seconds to get out. Tell the person who sent you here that he should juste to me.”
Maximilian said
coldly like a ruthless demon!
