Chapter 274 Put Your Heart in the Tummy

Hearing Humphrey mentioning Connor, both Marcus and Laura looked at Humphrey.

“Humphrey, are you talking about the Connor in H city?” said Marcus seriously.

“Yes, that’s him. Connor was greeting this loser, and I felt something weird.” Humphrey said straightforwardly.

Marcus and Laura’s facial expressions turned weird when they thought of Connor’s respectful manners towards Maximilian in Hugo’s party.

Looking at their weird faces, Humphrey got puzzled, “Uncle, auntie, what is wrong?”

“Humphrey, you do not need to ask about this. Maximilian luckily did Connor a favor. He does not really have much to do with Connor.” Marcus came up with an excuse. He did not really know their relationships clearly.

Since he did not know it well, there was no need to explain it. Otherwise, Humphrey might ask more questions, then he might expose that farce in the party, which would be embarrassing.

Laura glared at Maximilian and poked him at his forehead.

“You loser. Did you even flaunt Connor well? Why don’t you grab this rare opportunity to establish a close tie with him?”

Looking at Laura’s attitude towards Maximilian, Humphrey decided not to continue asking, even though he still had questions.

Moreover, judging from Laura’s attitude towards Maximilian, Humphrey assumed that Maximilian did not have much to do with Connor. Maybe Connor just accidentally used Maximilian while he was trying to threaten Frankie.

No matter what, Maximilian already got Frankie, Leon and the rest upset. There would be a nice show waiting for Maximilian when this auction was over.

Humphrey glared at Maximilian, and then said to Victoria, “Vic, tell me if there is anything you like.”

“I am not interested in anything here.” Victoria said coldly.

Laura unpleasantly touched Victoria with her elbow and murmured, “Why are you so silly? When Humphrey gives you presents, you just take them.”

“Why would I take them if I do not need them?” Victoria said lightly.

Laura sighed, knowing that Victoria did not get her idea, so she did not want to continue wasting her time talking.

As the auction started, it attracted everybody’s attention.

Leon was sitting in the front with the rest of his men. During the auction, they talked with each other, then frequently raised the board for many jades.

After getting several jades, Leon said something to Samson, then the latter looked over at Maximilian and gave him a middle finger, “Poor ass, raise your board.”

Immediately, all the bidders looked at their directions.

Under the stares, Marcus and Laura felt embarrassed.

“What’s going on? Humphrey?” asked Laura nervously.

Humphrey glanced at Maximilian and smiled, “Auntie, your loser son-in-law was great that he made the boss of this city, Frankie knelt in front of him.”

Laura and Marcus’s faces immediately turned pale, while their hearts were filled with fear.

The Laura who got half her soul scared away started to punch Maximilian, “You fool, why are you so good at looking for troubles? Did you even get to mess with someone here in this city?”

“Mom, calm down. It was Humphrey who was trying to get Maximilian into troubles, bringing those people. Connor helped solve the problem already.” Victoria helped explain for Maximilian.

Marcus said with a gloomy face, “Humphrey, tell me, what happened?”

Humphrey chuckled awkwardly, “I was talking with some business partners when running into Maximilian. Later, Maximilian upset them. I could not talk them out of the conflict, so the thing just turned serious.”

“Bullshit.” Victoria angrily looked at Humphrey.

“How am I not talking bullshits? You can go and ask them directly. This loser also bet with them on the qualities of the stones they each would choose.”

Humphrey said lightly, with an indifferent attitude.

Marcus slapped the chair and glared at Maximilian, “Nonsense! You dare to bet with them. How much money do you even have for that!”

“Just get the cheapest one.” said Maximilian lightly.

“Have you even seen a gemstone yet? I checked all those stones earlier. The cheapest one was just a normal stone. It could not have anything great inside! You are looking for troubles!” Marcus angrily yelled.

Laura patted Marcus’ chest, helping him smooth his breath.

“Don’t get excited. It’s no worthy of ruining your body. This loser is looking for trouble himself, so just let him be. It’ll be great if he died.”

Marcus closed his eyes, nodding, and said heavily, “We will not give you a cent, and we are not able to help you on this either. You need to take the responsibility yourself. Victoria, you should not help him either!”

Victoria felt bitter inside. She could not help him even if she wanted to.

Humphrey smiled, then patted Maximilian’s shoulder, “You did this to yourself. You think Connor was really supporting you? He was just using you! However, if you chose to divorce Victoria yourself, I can help with some nice talks for you, so you can die in a more comfortable way.”

Maximilian smiled lightly, ignored Humphrey, and held Victoria’s hands, “Don’t be nervous, I will be fine.”

“But, you can’t get the good ones, and they are going to get them. Those you can actually afford won’t make you a winner.” Victoria said worriedly.

Humphrey said disdainfully, “You don’t need to worry about him, Vic. This loser’s death is good for everybody, so it’s a good thing.”

Humphrey hated Maximilian with guts. If possible, he would kill him.

Laura went along, “This loser should die sooner. Having him here would only get us troubles.”

Victoria said to Maximilian, “How about we leave now? Or, you can contact Connor tomorrow. Otherwise, something bad might really happen.”

“It’s fine. We can do that after something really happen.” said Maximilian lightly.

“Why are you so rebellious? It will be late if something really happens.” said Victoria worriedly.
