Chapter 527 Rich Man's Bastard

Chapter 527 Rich Man's Bastard

On the way back, Canaan was driving and talking in excitement, "I just received a text message from the bank, saying that somebody has transferred 3.2 billion dollars to my account. It is my first time to earn billions!"

Canaan was from a rich family with businesses over billions of dollars, but he had been there just because his family wanted him to.

He was no better than a mascot. The elites working under him would handle the work for him. Therefore all he needed to do was signing the contracts.

He had launched several small-scale projects on himself, but most of them were just one-time projects. He earned millions of dollars at most.

This time, he made a net profit of more than 3 billion dollars. He was more than thrilled at this moment.

Flora curled her lips and said disdainfully, "Can you really earn that much without Maximilian? You could've lost all you have to them."

Flora's words burst Canaan's bubbles. His emotion was cooled down instantly.

"You're right, Flora. I couldn't have earned so much without my master. I was so overwhelmed just now."

"That's right. You should always know how to cut yourself down to size. Try not to think too much of yourself." Flora said and took Maximilian's arms.

"Maximilian, am I right? Canaan is arrogant just now, but I've calmed his soul."

Flora raised her head, begging for praise.

Maximilian tried to pull his arms away from Flora's grab, but Flora had perceived Maximilian's intention. She tried to take his arms harder and pouted, staring at Maximilian with her cute eyes.

"Maximilian, why don't you let me hug you? I need to feel safe! I'll only be able to watch you from afar once we get home!" Flora tried her best to act coquettishly.

Maximilian felt so embarrassed. He rubbed his forehead and said, "Would you stop that? I'll have to kick you out of the car if you keep doing that."

"Hey! Forgive me for being such a poor girl! How can you kick me out? I will take care of you, in every way!" Flora was affectedly sweet, like those beautiful girls in anime.

Even Maximilian could not bear to turn her down. Then he said, "Just keep it down, OK? I want to be quiet."

"Be quiet? You want that? I should change my name into 'a piece of quiet', so that I'll be the one you need now." Flora said and laughed out.

Seeing Flora being so idiotic, Maximilian found that he really didn't know what to do with her. Nothing seemed to carry any weight on Flora, no matter he played fierce or gentle.

Canaan looked at the front of the car, and didn't even turn back to watch. He pretended not to know what was going on and drove carefully.

He drove at normal speed for half an hour and finally sent them home.

Seeing the gate in front of them, Flora sighed and didn't want Maximilian to go.

They were already at the gate, and it would be risky if she was seen clinging to Maximilian by Victoria.

Flora wasn't afraid of Maximilian, but she was afraid of Victoria.

"What should we do with the 3.2 billion dollars?" asked Canaan. He opened the door of the car and helped the two to get out.

"You said you were going to start a racing club? Then just take it as the start-up fund. Topyuan Group still has room to develop. They can allocate those places to you as the racing track." Maximilian said casually.

Maximilian paid a fortune for a large area, but most of that area was yet to be developed. If Canaan could use a piece of land, he would save lots of money that were supposed to be spent on land purchasing.

"Thank you. I will definitely manage this club as my lifelong business!" Canaan promised seriously.

Maximilian laughed and shook his head, then he took Flora into the building.

When they returned home, Victoria was watching TV with her parents. She smiled as Maximilian stepped in.

"Come here, how's it going? Did you teach him well?" Victoria asked curiously.

Maximilian walked over to Victoria and sat down. Then he answered honestly, "Canaan had basic knowledge of it, but he wasn't born to do this. His future achievements will be limited, but he will soon start his racing club, which I think is a continuation of his dream."

Laura was eavesdropping their conversation, and then stared at Maximilian and asked, "What is going on with Topyuan Group? Why do they care about you so much?"

"It was nothing like that. I am just being lucky. Topyuan Group was looking for a president, so I recommend Victoria. She got the position because she was totally cut for it."

Maximilian lied calmly, without a slightest expression change on his face.

Laura looked at Maximilian with suspicion. She felt it weird that the Maximilian she was looking at now was so different from the one she had known before.

He used to be a piece of trash. She really wondered how he helped Victoria get the position as a president.

She was first surprised, and then confused. As time passed by, she was getting more and more curious.

"Don't treat me as a fool! I heard the investor of the Topyuan Group was a mysterious billionaire. They called him Mr. Lee! What do you have to do with him? Are you his bastard?"

In Laura's view, Maximilian being the bastard of the mysterious rich man might be the only reasonable explanation for this.

Maximilian hesitated for a moment and looked at Laura awkwardly.

"How weird is it? I am my own father now?"

"There are so many Mr. Lees in the world. I don't need to have anything to do with each one of them. I didn't know him, I recommended Victoria because of Wilfred's recommendation.

Maximilian played the blame game. He wasn't going to take credits for anything now. He would make all problems seem to be Wilfred's faults. The old man wouldn't mind it.

Laura snorted coldly. She was obviously not satisfied with Maximilian's answer.

"Don't try to fool me. If he's really your father, you should reveal your relationship with him so that Victoria could benefit from you in the future."

Victoria gently pulled Laura's arms as she saw how embarrassed Maximilian was.

"Mom, don't talk nonsense, OK? He had nothing to do with that man, and please stop guessing.”

"It's a reasonable guess! How could you explain your job offer if that isn't true? Be careful, Victoria. You should think more about it."
