Chapter 1051 Economic Losses


    The tall beauty looked Maximilian up and down with puzzled eyes. She was wondering if he was a help


    or just acting like that for show?


    Confused as she was, she believed that he was on her side.


    While she was pondering, Maximilian, seeming to know what she was thinking, said with a smile, “Of


    course I’m here to help you.”


    She nced at him and made a conclusion that he was lying.


    Maximilian raised his hands in a shrugging gesture to show that he resigned himself to the fact that she


    didn’t believe him.


    “Believe it or not, it’s true.” He said in a casual tone.


    His innocent smile didn’t put off her doubts.


    Suddenly, Harley Chang pulled over the car.


    He got off, followed by the old man.


    She was excited to see the old man and rushed to him, and groaned, “Grandpa, what brings you here?


    Why don’t you have a rest at home since you’re out of health?”


    “Sweetie, you might as well go with me and put the business aside first because we’ve been targeted.


    Maximilian was here to protect us.” The old man said.


    He came here to persuade her since he knew about his granddaughter.


    She hesitated for a minute, but she knew that her grandpa wouldn’t lie to her.


    Realizing that she misunderstood Maximilian, she took a nce at him with deep guilty eyes.


    “I’m sorry for mistaking you as a bad guy. Please forgive me.” She said in a guilty tone.


    “Never mind. It’smonce for a guy like me to be misunderstood.” Maximilian smiled.


    She was surprised at his being so forgiving.


    After arranging the work briefly to the deputy manager, she got on the car and asked, “Grandpa, what’s


    going on?”


    Her face fell after she knew the ins and outs of everything from her grandpa. She said, “I can’t believe


    we’ve been targeted by Dragon Sect.”


    She couldn’t believe that a key made for Dragon Sect by her grandpa would cause so much trouble.


    She knew how powerful the famous Dragon Sect was and nobody dare be hostile to them. At the


    thought of it, she was more nervous.


    She took a nced at Maximilian, wondering how he could help them by himself.


    In fact, she had little confidence in him.


    Maximilian, however, didn’t exin anything when he noticed her look, because he knew what she was

    thinking of him.


    When they arrived at Maximilian’s vi, the got off the car.


    She was surprised at the location and site area of the vi, which were among the best in H City. She


    was more curious about who Maximilian was.


    What she could be sure was he was by no means an ordinary man.


    Her grandpa and she walked into the vi.


    Victoria was astonished to find that Maximilian brought a woman home. She threw a strange look at


    him and thought he must cross her deliberately.


    “Maximilian, what are you doing?” Victoria questioned in a sulk.


    “She was in trouble these days, so I let her live with us for a couple of days.” Maximilian lowered his


    head and made a try cough to cover his guilty conscience.


    “Fine.” Victoria didn’t continue to inquire. What she minded was that Maximilian might have an affair


    with the woman.


    Stroking her hair, he said affectionately, “Don’t be silly. I will never abandon you.”


    She rolled her eyes and murmured, “We’ve been married for so long time. Don’t be so sappy.”


    “I’m old indeed, but you’re not. You’re always the most beautiful woman in H City.” He grinned.


    His sweet words, like sweet honey, made her happy andfortable. But it was indeed true.


    “Fine.”


    He sighed with relief. If she continued to question him, he would be in trouble. He patted himself on the


    chest and began to arrange rooms for the old man and the woman.


    The woman asked, “How soon can I go back?”


    She was still worried about thepany.


    It was eptable for her to stay here for several days, but it wouldn’t be OK with her if she had to stay


    for half a month or a month, because thepany would be in a mess if she was not in charge.


    After a moment of consideration, Maximilian said, “Several days perhaps, it won’t be too long.”


    She nodded, then turned to look at Victoria. She was thinking who Maximilian was so that he could


    marry the woman famous as the most beautiful one in H City. She was more and more curious about


    him.


    “Fine. We’d better be calm in hard time.” She said to Maximilian.


    He nodded and said, “OK, then don’t think too much and be calm.”


    Suddenly, her phone rang. It was from her secretary. When she picked it up, her face was quite


    changed.


    Maximilian guessed from her face that there must be something wrong with herpany.


    “What happened?” he asked after she hang up.


    “There’s something wrong in thepany. I have to go back,” said she.


    He hesitated for a moment and frowned. “Is it urgent? Let me go with you.”


    “Mypany was suppressed somehow. If it continues, there will be great losses this month,” said


    she.


    Maximilian concluded that it must be Dragon Sect that was at the back of this.
