Chapter 356 Let You Go?

Puff!

The dagger pinched in Maximilian fingers bit Addison’s shoulders. The pain stroke him hard and made him unable to raise his arms.

Instantly, he realized that tendons in his arms were cut off.

Addison was frightened after that, as anyone who knew anatomy very well could hardly find it and break it so easily. It was well hidden under the fat below the muscles.

Maximilian cast a cold glance at Addison and slashed at his right hand holding a dagger. Before Addison could fall back, he felt great pain on his keens.

His knee was pierced by the dagger, which made him unable to stand up anymore. He then fell before Maximilian.

“This is the consequence when you think of harming my family.” Maximilian said coldly and the half dagger in his hands gleamed as he made small cuts on Addison’s body with it.

The pain made Addison soaked by cold sweat. He felt like he was being sung as his sweat soaked into his wounds.

“It hurts so much! Maximilian, please stop. I understand now. Please let me go. I’ll tell you how to disable that bomb!”

“Unnecessary. It’s a simple homemade bomb, so it’s not difficult to disable it at all.” Maximilian said calmly.

Addison was shocked. He looked at Maximilian while shivering. He even regretted that he did this for money.

“You want to live or die?” Maximilian asked.

Suddenly, Addison seemed to wake up. He nodded his head rapidly and gave Maximilian several solid kowtows.

“Of course. Please tell me how. I’ll do whatever you want.”

“Who’s behind you? What’s your purpose?” Maximilian asked, narrowing his eyes.

“Aston, the young master of the Brooks Family in the capital. He said you are wanted and the price is 20 million dollars. I was greedy then, so I took this mission. But I haven’t expected you to be so powerful. It’s my fault that I offended you.”

Addison did dare to hide anything from this man. So he told Maximilian everything he knew.

“Aston?” Maximilian repeated the name. But he didn’t know this person at all.

However, since this man was a young master in the capital, Maximilian assumed that it had something to do with the White Family.

“It’s the White Family who offered the reward?”

“I don’t know. Only Aston knew about it. He’s very resourceful. Many killers and mercenaries take mission from him. He’s trustworthy in the industry.”

Maximilian nodded and strode towards Marcus and his wife. He looked at the countdown on the bomb and found it was only about 1 minute left.

Click! The door was opened. Victoria looked into the room with prudence.

Every passing second was like a year to Victoria, who had been waiting outside. She was done with patience, so she secretly opened the door, wanting to know what was happening.

When she saw Maximilian standing in front of her parents and a stranger that was covered in blood kneeling before Maximilian, she realized the situation was under control.

So she pushed the door open and trotted in.

But when she got closer to her parents, she was shocked.

“This, this is a bomb? How could there be a bomb?”

She almost had a mental breakdown as she looked at the flashing numbers on the bomb.

Maximilian helped her with her footing and said softly, “Don’t worry. It won’t explode if we cut off the red wire.”

“Really? It won’t explode?” She watched Maximilian cut off the red wire nervously while whipping her tears off.

Tick! Tick! Tick! Then the countdown stopped.

Addison looked at Maximilian with a bitter smile, thinking that his judgment was right. Maximilian was no ordinary man, since he was so calm when disabling the bomb.

Even if an experienced bomb expert had to take some time to make out a plan. But Maximilian just disabled it after casting a casual glance at it.

“Look, the countdown stopped. I’ll take the bomb off and escort out parents to their room. You can stay with them. They had been in a coma, so don’t tell them about the kidnap. You can just make a random excuse after they wake up.”

“Okay, I’ll do whatever you say.” Victoria didn’t know what to do, so she took Maximilian’s advice.

Maximilian carried the couple into the room, comforted Victoria and left with the door closed.

Addison didn’t have any strength in his limbs, so he had to sprawl on the ground in a weird way.

Seeing Maximilian come out, Addison put on an obsequious smile.

“Mr. Lee, can, can I go?”

“Can you walk on your own?” Maximilian said smilingly.

Addison fell silent. He remembered his wounds, which made him unable to walk or even crawl.

“I made a promise, so I will let you go. But won’t you consider asking someone to pick you up? Maybe Aston will be a good choice.”

Addison understood Maximilian wanted him to ask Aston to come to his aid, so he could ask for more information from Aston.

“I can try to call him. But I’m merely an employee and Aston is just a contact. He may not choose to help me.”

“If so, you can ask your other friends. I have always been merciful.” Maximilian put on a light smile.

This was mercy?

Addison thought the word should be replaced by cruelty since he was crippled. Addison complained inwardly and said with a bitter smile, “My phone is on the table. Please fetch it for me.”

Maximilian picked up Addison’s phone and slid it open. Then he dialed Aston’s number and put him on the speakerphone.

Soon Aston picked up the phone. Aston’s voice sounded brisk, “Addison, have you done it?”

“No. I’m no match for Mr. Lee and my hands are broken. Mr. Lee promised to spare my life if you can come here to pick me up. Young Master, I have never asked anything from you, but now I beg you. Please come. I’ll be grateful to you forever.”

Addison begged with his voice broken.

Aston’s hand clenched, and the veins on the back of his hands bulged.

“Useless! How can you even fail? You even have the guts to ask for my help. You don’t know the rules in the industry?”

“I, I know. But this is the only way out. Please come. Otherwise I can’t leave here.”

Aston closed his eyes and took a deep breath, thinking about Maximilian’s intentions.

“Maximilian, I know you are listening. Can I send my followers to pick him up? You made a promise.”

Maximilian smiled, “Is it the White Family who offered the money?”

“Clever. Leighton is totally mad. I assume he is willing to do anything to have you killed.”
