Lovey shuddered, got up slowly, and turned around. Then, she saw Maxwell standing behind her.When he saw Lovey cowering, Maxwell stepped forward and grabbed her arm, pulling her close to him.“If their shoes are wet, let them do it themselves. Don’t bend over for such people,” Maxwell said quietly.His voice was not loud or harsh, but there was an indescribable aura in it.Lovey was in a daze, not knowing whether to answer.She wanted to be concerned for Max and tell him to leave quickly. She did not want him to mess with Jill’s rogue boyfriend for her sake, but she was too scared to say the words herself.Jill’s rogue boyfriend scoffed and took two steps forward provocatively. As he looked at Maxwell, he spat, “What’s the matter? Do you still want to stand up for this bumpkin, pretty boy?”Although Maxwell was wearing a hat and a mask, Jill’s boyfriend could see his beauty just from his eyes, so he could not help feeling a little jealous in his heart.“I’m just protecting my
It was not until she got in the car and far away from the movie theater that Lovey finally came to her senses and looked at Maxwell adoringly. “Max, I didn’t expect you to be so good at fighting.”Maxwell smiled and did not answer.Lovey then thought of something and immediately became worried again, “Jill’s boyfriend is someone famous and his father is very powerful. Since you hit him this time, will you…”“Don’t worry, no matter how powerful his father is, he won’t dare to touch me,” Maxwell interrupted her gently.Lovey stopped talking.Maxwell looked at her deeply, “Lovey, tell me, were you ever bullied by that girl when you were in school?”The way Lovey got along with Jill just now gave him some clues. Lovey having no self-esteem in front of Jill showed that she might have been bullied for a very long time.Upon hearing Maxwell’s question, Lovey finally could not hold back anymore. All the grievances she had suffered in the past few months rushed to her heart. She threw he
After a while, Sonnet blushed and snuggled into Maxwell’s arms. She said, “Did you have a good time with Lovey tonight? How is she doing at school?”Upon mentioning this, Maxwell’s face turned serious. Then, he told Sonnet about how he saw Lovey being bullied by Jill today.Sonnet sighed, “It seems it’s true.”Maxwell suddenly remembered that it was Sonnet who reminded him to pick up Lovey and ask about Lovey’s situation at school. Then, he suddenly came to his senses, “Darling, how did you know about that?”Sonnet told him about the time she saw Lovey shining shoes for others.“Why didn’t you tell me sooner?”“I think she doesn’t want you to know, and she has repeatedly denied that she has been bullied, so I asked her to go to you directly if something is going on. I didn’t expect that she was holding back and didn’t tell you.”Maxwell stroked Sonnet’s hair. “But you still worry about her, and you reminded me. Darling, you are so kind.”He truly loved his dear wife.Sonnet gi
“You are such a fool! You need to find out about his situation. If he earns a lot of money, you can seize the opportunity to make him your man! With him as your backer, you will have no worries about food and clothing in the future. Then, our family can enjoy life as well.”“Max has a wife.”“So what? You can get divorced even if you’re married!” Scout glared at her and waved his hand. “It’s too early to tell now. You need to figure out his financial situation first. If it’s good, you can fight for it. If he’s just ordinary, then forget it…”As he spoke, he looked his sister up and down again. “My sister is so pretty, she can always find someone better.”Lovey saw how her brother looked at her and inexplicably thought of the pigs for sale in the village……The next day, Sonnet arrived at school and saw several teachers gathered and talking enthusiastically.She leaned over and asked curiously, “What are you talking about?”“We’re talking about Paragon Future Repeating School!”
Suddenly, Sonnet thought that it was too stupid to ask this question.If Maxwell was undercover and dared not appear, why would he use his real name? Or maybe he did not file a complaint in person but went through someone.She cleared her throat and said, "Well, I heard about Paragon's future at school today. I heard that the parent of the bullied student had sued you. Do you know that parent?"Maxwell breathed a sigh of relief, ‘So, it turned out to be this matter.’‘My wife thought that Johnson and Maxwell knew each other, so she came to ask tentatively.’"Oh, I don't know. The parents got my phone number from somewhere, so they called my office directly."Sonnet breathed a sigh of relief. "Haven't you seen him?""No, I got someone to investigate the matter and found that there was indeed a bullying incident. So, I immediately called the principal.""Oh," Sonnet responded, feeling slightly relieved. It seemed that Maxwell was very careful. He dealt with the problem but did no
"He said it is in the Second Hospital...""Are you in the hotel now?" Lovey should be living in the hotel these days."Yes.""Okay, then wait for me, I will pick you up now, and accompany you to the hospital!" Maxwell said.After he hung up, Sonnet went to open the door. "Just text me when you're done, I'll go back first."Maxwell took her hand. "Darling, I'm sorry...""I'm your wife, why are you sorry? The Cattle family is the one who saved you back then, you should help them. Hurry up now and go, I won’t misunderstand or anything like that!"Maxwell was completely relieved by what Sonnet said, his darling wife was always so understanding!After Maxwell drove to the hotel to pick up Lovey, they went to the Second Hospital where they found Scout. Half his face was covered in blood and he had just come out of the emergency room with a dressing on his head."Brother!" Lovey exclaimed as her legs went limp.Maxwell helped Lovey, and asked Scout, "Is the injury serious?"Scout s
In a daze, Lovey asked, "How do you know?""Mr. Pine, a barrister, assisted me in obtaining my wages. The contractor stated that the barrister was present to assist me. What do we even have in common? I believe he is the person Maxwell hired! Mr. Pine is said to be as well-known and powerful as the four young masters of Harbor City. Such a powerful person would listen to Maxwell, implying that Maxwell has extensive connections!"Scout became more spirited as he spoke as if he saw hope for the future. "Lovey, can you find out if it was Maxwell who helped you? If it is Maxwell, you can bravely pursue him. As your brother, I support you! ""Brother! What are you talking about?! He has a wife!" Lovey was angry, but her heart was thumping."So what if he has a wife? He can still get a divorce!""I...I have seen his wife. She is beautiful and elegant—""Aren't you lovely as well? When you wore those new outfits that day, I almost didn't recognize you. You are as attractive as the TV st
"Why? Can’t he work at the current construction site?" Maxwell asked in surprise."The contractor is probably annoyed that my brother engaged a lawyer, so they don't want him anymore.""It's okay not to work for that small construction team. I'll find a proper construction company for your brother later," Maxwell said casually."Then will you be free tomorrow, Max? Let us treat you to dinner, Max. Please don't refuse us!"After Lovey finished speaking, she held her breath and waited for Maxwell's answer.Maxwell was silent for a while, then replied, "I'm free, evening would be better.""Okay, I'll send you the address tomorrow afternoon!" Lovey cheered.After they hung up, Scout immediately came over. "Look, look, he is capable. You only mentioned that I lost my job, and he replied that he could get a job for me easily. Which proves that he is very well-connected. Sister, you must hold on to this huge pillar, a man of this caliber is hard to find!”Lovey bit her lip. "But...but.
