Chapter 49: What a Coincidence!
"You dug it out?" Greta got shocked for one second, then she looked at Maxwell’s smile, she sneered
disdainfully.
"I would believe you if you say the blood diamond was swept by you," Greta said with an ironic smile
while raising her arms crossing against her breast.
How could Greta believe what Maxwell said? Blood diamonds were extremely valuable. Even a sub-
diamond of the worst quality was still worth millions, which not so many people could afford.
And Maxwell just said that he was the one dug out such a precious treasure. How shameless he was!
She would never believe him!
Maxwell smiled indifferently and did not care to say more. When Maxwell was on a secret mission in
South Africa, he happened to meet a friend of his in South Africa and helped him dig out the blood
diamond. The reason why he could be so confident to talk about blood diamonds in front of Young
Master Sandoval was that he dug it out himself. Of course, he knew a lot about it.
Even when the blood diamonds were shipped to the auction in South Africa, Maxwell was the one who
escorted all the way. Compared to Maxwell, Young Master Sandoval’s understanding of the blood
diamonds was superficial.
Maxwell did not argue. He knew that even if he said anything, Greta would not believe him...
…
Half an hour later, the Maybach S-Class stopped at the door of the villa. Maxwell opened the door for
Greta. She got off the car and walked into the villa.
After Maxwell parked the car, he followed along and walked in. then he saw Harriet sitting on the sofa
watching TV, holding a fruit plate in her hand, and enjoying the sweetness and juiciness of imported
fruits.
"How's it going?" Harriet asked when seeing Greta’s annoyed expression.
"Ask him!" Greta let out a cold snort before walking upstairs.
"President Greta met Young Master Sandoval at the party," Maxwell said.
Maxwell and Harriet chatted briefly before he walked into his bedroom. He closed the door, took out his
phone, and dialed a number.
"Boss, when can I go back? I'm tired of Ocean City. I have gone to all the bars in Ocean City." An
innocent voice from a young man came from the other end of the phone.
"Don't talk nonsense. Have you found the killer who assassinated my wife?" Maxwell snorted and
shouted out.
"This... Boss, it's so hard to detect. I checked for a long time. There are countless noble families in
Beijing. And those assassin killers have contacted too many of those families. I have no idea where to
start." The young man complained.
"I'll give you a clue now. Check the Sandoval family in Ocean City. Also, Young Master Sandoval came
to Ocean City already." After Maxwell finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
…
One weekend, Maxwell cooked breakfast as usual. After he finished it, Greta, Harriet, and Leila went
downstairs one after another.
As usual, Leila was the first one who came downstairs, Harriet was the second one. When Leila almost
finished the breakfast, Greta came down slowly with a pair of sandals.
After Greta came down, she glanced at the table and found that there was only one seat available
which was the one next to Maxwell. She frowned and thought for a while, and finally walked to
Maxwell’s side and sat down.
"Greta, try this. This is my new recipe: black pepper chicken sandwich." Maxwell graciously smiled,
picked up a piece carefully cooked sandwich, and put it on Greta's plate.
Greta looked at Maxwell and said coldly, "Call me President Greta!"
"Ok, ok." Maxwell smiled, and after Greta took a bite of the sandwich, he muttered privately, "You are
my wife. And we are not outside now."
"What did you say?" Suddenly, Greta asked.
"Nothing." Maxwell smiled awkwardly. Greta stared at him suspiciously for a while. Maxwell got a relief.
Fortunately, Greta didn't hear what he said...
"Greta, watch TV." Harriet suddenly said.
Greta looked up and saw a report being broadcasted on TV.
"There is a charity auction tonight. Will you go?" Harriet smiled lightly.
Greta stared at the super luxurious TV screen for a moment, and uttered a word, decisively.
"Yes."
After breakfast, Maxwell walked out of the villa and saw Leila running around the villa. Maxwell glanced
at her. Leila had a great figure. Because of exercise, she had no extra fat on her body. These long and
slender legs were full of power.
"Leila, you start exercising so early." Maxwell chased after Leila with a smile.
Leila had no good impression of him. She glanced at Maxwell for one second and said, "It’s not your
business?"
"What a coincidence! I also exercise every day. Weirdly, I never got the chance to meet you." Maxwell
smiled.
Leila frowned. She had never seen Maxwell exercise before. How dared him to lie in front of her!
Leila stopped paying attention to Maxwell. She was sure he was just trying to flirt with her.
"How about we run together in the future?" Maxwell smiled lightly. He especially highlighted the word
"together" as if he meant something different other than running.
"Catch up with me first." Leila couldn't bear it. She coldly said so and suddenly accelerated!
After running for hundreds of meters, Leila slowed down. According to Leila's estimation, Maxwell must
be dropped off far away already.
"Why did you slow down? are you tired?"
Suddenly! A mocking voice sounded from behind. Leila got stunned. She suddenly turned her head C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
and saw Maxwell closely following behind her!
Leila couldn’t believe it. Her speed just now was her fastest speed, which only a few people could keep
up with when she was in the Special Forces!
And this annoying Maxwell could keep up with her. How was this possible!
Leila's heart trembled. She couldn’t convince herself that she would lose to an annoying liar like
Maxwell. "I dare you to keep it up!" Leila snorted coldly. And then she suddenly ran so fast that Maxwell
could only see her back far away in a few seconds.
Maxwell smiled without saying anything. He also exerted his force and kept up with her closely.
Leila’s speed was unbelievable when she got serious with it. It didn't take long before she ran around
the villa round by round...
After running for the twentieth round, Leila finally got tried. Her mouth opened slightly and breathed
loudly. Her whole body sweated so badly that even wet her clothes.
When she slowed down, suddenly, a figure rushed out from the side. Maxwell passed her and said,
"The deputy captain of the special forces can't even win over a man grown up in mountains?"
What Maxwell said immediately irritated Leila? She bit her teeth and accelerated to catch up!
But soon, Leila’s expression changed slightly. She suddenly realized that Maxwell’s body was
surprisingly strong...gradually, the gap between them was getting bigger and bigger!
When Maxwell's speed finally slowed down, Leila was already five or six rounds behind!
"Who are you?" Leila looked at Maxwell meaningfully and seriously.
"I lived in the mountains when I was a kid. So I normally ran faster than ordinary people." After Maxwell
finished speaking, he walked slowly towards the villa calmly. His face was not red, and he was not out
of breath.
Leila’s expression suddenly became solemn. Why did Maxwell do this to her? To give her a lesson?
Maxwell returned to the villa. After taking a shower, he saw that Greta dressed up, sat on the sofa, and
said coldly, "Let’s go to the auction."
"Me?" Maxwell was taken aback. He didn’t expect that Greta would want to go with him.
"Yes." Greta didn't tell Maxwell there was another reason why she took Maxwell to the auction today.
"Great. President Greta, wait for me to change my clothes." Maxwell was overjoyed. He rubbed his
hands and rushed directly into his bedroom.
Harriet on the side smiled charmingly and said, "Greta, did you treat him too badly? Look at him, he is
so happy now."
Greta snorted coldly, "You don't know how much trouble he got me in at the last dinner party."
"What trouble did he cause you specifically? Think about it carefully, even without him, Young Master
Sandoval wouldn’t leave you alone anyway." Harriet said.
Greta got stunned. What Harriet said was right. She could not say anything to refute her.
…
In front of the hotel for a charity auction, a Maybach S-Class slowly stopped. When the door opened, a
beautiful and sexy woman walked out and entered the hotel.
Maxwell followed her closely like a stalker, which made Greta frown. She wanted to say something, but
she couldn't find where he was wrong.
Although this charity auction was not as big as the dinner party held by Young Master Sandoval three
days ago, it still gathered countless rich people. There were well-dressed wealthy ladies and business
leaders who dominated the market of the Ocean City...
And when Greta appeared, she quickly attracted countless people’s attention. Many noblemen wanted
to come forward to strike up a conversation and make friends with the No. 1 beauty in the Ocean City
business community!
Of course, Greta had her way of dealing with those people.
Suddenly! A handsome young figure appeared at the door!
“Young Master Sandoval is here—"
Hearing a businessman next to her saying so slowly, Greta’s body trembled. She felt that even the
echo was trespassing the auction hall.
In an instant, countless people looked at the door with surprise!
Maxwell’s hands were clenched into fists. His eyes narrowed lightly with great anger.
The crowd dispersed, and then Greta saw Young Master Sandoval’s handsome face, which made her
expression get cold suddenly.
What a coincidence!
