Chapter 891 Are You Lying to Me

Of course, Maximilian was just thinking about it. If he really were the president of the company, Victoria wouldn’t allow Grace to be his secretary. Maximilian didn’t want to hurt Victoria’s feelings. He just wanted to take care of her for the rest of his life.

Maximilian joined the three of them, lounging on the sofa.

Meanwhile.

Since his mission failed, Harley went to Dragon Queen. When Dragon Queen saw Harley, she had disappointment written all over her face.

Harley couldn’t help but drop his head at the sight of Dragon Queen’s disappointed look.

"You actually failed again. Can’t you do anything right, loser?" Dragon Queen snorted. She was getting more and more impatient with Harley.

Since Harley had failed again and again, Dragon Queen turned totally contemptuous of him, and her attitude towards him became worse too.

Harley looked embarrassed. At first, he was considering whether to be a fence-sitter or not. He wanted to stand between Dragon Queen and Maximilian. However, Dragon Queen’s affront to him made Harley completely give up the idea of backing her.

"Dragon Queen, it was an accident. I met Maximilian." Harley said hurriedly.

Dragon Queen was stunned to hear that. But when she saw Harley’s serious look, she suddenly believed that Harley was not lying. Finally, Dragon Queen sneered, "Really? I didn’t expect you to meet Maximilian. Since Maximilian is so powerful, how did you get out?"

Now Dragon Queen began to wonder if Harley was lying. If not, there must be some other reason.

Harley gave a bitter smile. "Thanks to my men’s protection, I got out of there."

Dragon Queen meditated for a few seconds before saying, "Fine, I’ll just believe you this once. Given that you met Maximilian, it’s understandable that you suffered a failure."

Hearing that, Harley breathed a sigh of relief. Now that Dragon Queen forgave him, he couldn’t be happier. Harley expressed his appreciation to Dragon Queen at once. "Dragon Queen, I appreciate your generosity."

"Enough, stop playing up to me. Flattery will get you nowhere with me." Dragon Queen said, poker- faced.

Harley rubbed his hands together and said, "Dragon Queen, you’re always right."

Dragon Queen was upset because she failed again, and Maximilian was also involved. Now all she wanted to do was get rid of Maximilian, a thorn in her side. Otherwise, he would definitely be a serious problem for her in the future.

"No, Maximilian must be wiped out." Dragon Queen said in a cold voice.

Dragon Queen had a hunch that Maximilian would threaten her status, but what she didn’t know was that Maximilian couldn’t care less about his status in the Dragon Sect, nor did he care about the Dragon Sect’s reputation.

The reason Dragon Queen thought this way was because she was under the persecutory delusion.

"Exactly, Maximilian must be wiped out." Harley echoed.

Dragon Queen gave a cold smile. "Since you agree with me, have you thought of any way to deal with him?"

Harley became quiet immediately, looking embarrassed. He hemmed and hawed for a while but still said nothing. He had tried every possible way that he could think of, but they all failed.

Harley couldn’t come up with any way to deal with Maximilian for now. Besides, Maximilian was not some ordinary man.

Seeing Harley remain silent, Dragon Queen darted a scornful look at him, dissatisfied with his attitude.

Harley shuddered. He could also tell that Dragon Queen was really angry now, but at this moment, he couldn’t think of a better way. After all, Maximilian was a hard nut to crack.

For the first time, Dragon Queen didn’t blame Harley, but narrowed her eyes and said, "Forget it. You may leave now."

Harley was totally surprised. If it were in the past, Dragon Queen would have punished him, but how come her attitude had changed so much? Since Harley was not in a rush to leave, at the thought that he still had one week left, he took the chance and asked, "Dragon Queen, I appreciate your generosity. I will definitely think of a way to deal with Maximilian."

Dragon Queen didn’t say anything and started to paint her nails. The scarlet nail polish looked a little weird against the sunshine. Harley hesitated a few seconds and suggested, "By the way, Dragon Queen, we can threaten Maximilian with his parents’ lives."

"Well, that’s a great idea. How come I haven’t thought of it?" Dragon Queen’s eyes lit up the moment she heard Harley’s suggestion. She approved of his idea.

Harley scratched his head happily, satisfied. This was the result that he wanted. Harley knew Dragon Queen agreed to his idea at the sight of her look.

It was now that Dragon Queen told Harley an accurate location. Harley was surprised to hear that. He couldn’t help but ask, "Dragon Queen, I’m the one who is in charge of that black market. How come there are people there?"

Harley had thought that Maximilian’s parents would be held in somewhere important by Dragon Queen, or somewhere mysterious or secret, but who would have thought that the answer would be far from his imagination.

Dragon Queen gave a mysterious smile. "The most dangerous place is the safest place. I don’t think you don’t know that."

Hearing Dragon Queen’s words, Harley gasped. He thought Dragon Queen liked playing tricks, but she was actually the wire-puller.

"How wise you are, Dragon Queen! That guy will rescue his parents at all costs." Harley chuckled and said. In fact, he had no plan to threaten Maximilian with his parents’ lives.

Harley did so because he hadn’t taken the antidote yet. If he hadn’t taken the pill, the threat might work, but now that he had taken it, he could only be controlled by Maximilian.

After that, Harley walked out the room with delight. When he got out, he sent a text message to Maximilian at once.

Maximilian wasn’t very excited when he learned the news. After all, he had never seen his parents since birth, so he didn’t have affection for them. What existed between them was kinship at most.

Maximilian made an appointment with Harley at the black market. This time, Maximilian took Grace with him.

Harley’s eyes brightened the moment he saw Maximilian. Harley rushed up to him and said, "Mr. Lee, now that I get the truth out of her, can I take the antidote now?"

"I can’t give you the antidote before I see my parents." Maximilian said faintly. He didn’t know whether this was part of Harley’s plan or not, so he had to stay alert.

What if he was fooled by Harley again? Maximilian was totally aware of the gravity of the situation.

It didn’t occur to Harley that Maximilian would act so cautiously, and this outcome concerned him. Harley thought of Maximilian’s personal character, believing that he wouldn’t lie to him. Besides, Maximilian’s demand was quite reasonable.

Harley began to lead the way without a word. When they reached the destination, Maximilian and Harley found no one in the room. novelbin

Maximilian turned to look at the dumbfounded Harley and said with a smile, "It seems that you’re lying to me."
