In the office, Zachary heard everything the two of them said in the car.He punched the table heavily. He did not expect that Sonnet and Maxwell would progress so quickly. Sonnet had already decided to date Johnson!This meant that his plan needed to be brought forward!At 10:30 in the morning, Maxwell carefully assisted Sonnet out of the obstetrics and gynecology department of Westfield Hospital.Sonnet looked at her side. A pregnant woman who was about to give birth zoomed past her like the wind. She blushed and said to Maxwell, "Okay, my belly is not big enough that you have to help me walk!""I must support you. My precious daughter is in your stomach. I must protect her!" Maxwell replied seriously.If it was not for the fear of bad press, he would have carried his wife.Sonnet laughed. "How do you know it's a daughter?""Look at this delicate little face. It's clearly a daughter, okay?"Sonnet looked at the slightly fuzzy little face in the four-dimensional ultrasound sca
Maxwell called Zachary as he walked down the stairs. He wanted to ask him which hotel he was in, but the phone rang many times without an answer. Maxwell got in touch with Zachary’s assistant only to find out that he was at Grand Ocean Hotel.He drove straight to Grand Ocean Hotel and entered the private room, just in time to see Zachary being flanked by two pot-bellied middle-aged men. Zachary sat between the men, while they toasted him shot after shot! Zachary was so wobbly that he could not stand still. He kept saying that he could not drink anymore. However, the two men would not listen and continued to persuade him to drink!Maxwell hurried over to push the men away and said coldly, "Mr. Strombold can't drink much. If something happens to him, can you take responsibility for it?"He sized up these men as he spoke. He felt that these men seemed a little strange, and he was not sure what kind of business Zachary was talking to them about."Drinking is inevitable in business di
The two walked out. Right after they left the restaurant, Maxwell suddenly felt dizzy. The blood in his body seemed to burn all of a sudden.He stopped abruptly. This was something he had experienced before!"What's wrong?" Zachary carefully observed his expression. ‘Looks like the medicine worked?’His heart was beating wildly. "Are you unwell? Your face doesn’t look right."Maxwell did not answer. He had a sudden flashback, and his expression changed.He remembered this was the same feeling he experienced after Mrs. Wilson gave him orange juice last time!Someone put something in the wine he drank just now!"I can't send you back!" He turned his head and saw a hotel next to him. "Let's get a room in the hotel to rest."Zachary could not wait for him to say this, so he nodded quickly. "Okay!"The two went to the hotel and booked two rooms immediately.After Maxwell sent Zachary to his room, he felt that his body was burning, so he hurried back to his room.Just as he sw
The soothing cold water hit his face, temporarily relieving the heat all over his body.Within this short time, he called Hayden. "I was drugged. Please get me a doctor immediately."He sent Hayden his location after he hung up, then he stuck his head under the faucet again.Maggie's voice was faint outside the door. "Mr. Yates, open the door. If you want to do it in there, I don’t mind. Let me in!"Maxwell frowned. He dialed the front desk number of the hotel. "Send a security guard to the eighth floor. A woman is soliciting here. If you don't want the hotel to be liable for illegal activities, get the security to take this woman away quickly!"The front desk receptionist of the hotel was taken aback and apologized repeatedly. Maxwell could hear the receptionist calling for the security guard even before she hung up.Less than a minute later, Maggie argued with the security guard outside. "What are you doing?! I'm a customer here, okay?! Room number? I’m sharing a room with my b
When he said that, Maxwell was a little relieved. This matter seemed aimed at him, and Zachary was just being used.He called Carter. "Help me find this person, Maggie Kimmel. If you find her, hand her over to Mr. Scott. I’ll interrogate her myself."The drug in Maxwell's system was finally metabolized after two hours of IV drips and multiple bathroom trips.Hayden pulled out the needle for him, and the two went next door together to ring the doorbell.No one opened the door, so Maxwell called Zachary on the phone again. The phone rang for a long time and was about to hang up automatically. Finally, Zachary picked up and answered the phone with a groggy voice. "Maxwell?""Are you awake? I'm outside. Please open the door."A few seconds later, the door opened with a click.The strong smell of alcohol in the room filled their nostrils. Hayden covered his nose with a little disgust.Zachary's hair was slightly messy. He froze momentarily when he noticed that Hayden was there, then
"You’ve done a good job," he praised Zachary.Maxwell was two years younger than Zachary. As the boss of the new company, he recruited Zachary. Zachary was the only recruit to have remained with him until now. Their relationship progressed from boss and employee to a genuine friendship. The two of them watched each other grow through the years.He knew very well that Zachary was introverted, so Zachary had been going against his discomfort to attend many social events all these years just to elevate Paragon Group to what it was today. Maxwell understood the level of contribution that Zachary had given to his company.This was also the reason why Maxwell later insisted on giving shares to Zachary. Zachary had spent more effort than him on Paragon Group!Zachary smiled upon receiving Maxwell's praise.When Maxwell saw his smile, he had a strange feeling in his heart.Soon, the designated driver arrived. Zachary and Maxwell each got into their cars, and the drivers drove to Paragon
"I want to see animals," Jaybie said."I want to go to the beach too.""I also want to go to the STEM exhibition.""I also want to..."The two children talked about seven or eight places they wanted to go in rapid fire. Sonnet wanted to fulfill the children’s wishes, but she was powerless.Firstly, she had school duty for two days out of seven days, then she needed to take care of Shay for one day, so there were only four days left. Secondly, she was worried that her body would not be able to bear it if she went out every day.Maxwell walked over, looked at Sonnet's stomach, and said to the children, "Well, let's think about it carefully. If the attraction is far away, we should only choose one. Otherwise, your mom's body will not be able to bear it. If it’s nearby, I’ll take you there, okay?”The two children were sensible as well. They agreed unanimously.When Sonnet was at work the next day, Juliette asked her where she would be during the holidays."I haven't decided. The
Sonnet hurriedly stopped them. "No, you can’t open the windows here. If you want to feed the animals, you can do so in the free feeding area later."The kids obeyed her although they were reluctant.The car continued to move forward, and they saw more ferocious animals as they went along. A tiger even trotted beside the car and ran with them for a while.Eventually, the car drove into the free-feeding area.There were barbed wire fences that covered all the corners, and inside were gentle small creatures in captivity. When the car reached the entrance, visitors could get out of the car, collect the prescribed animal feed, and feed the small animals as they pleased.Jaybie and Lune could not wait to get out of the car, and Johnson hurriedly followed behind them.The family entered the free-feeding area. Jaybie and Lune soon started to feed the rabbits. Sonnet looked around and found a big tree that she could sit under and watch over them."Look after them. Make sure there are no
