Chapter 620 Gang Up On Me
Chapter 620 Gang up on Me
Her ego never allowed her to cave in.
Even in difficult situations, she would stick to her guns and never give in.
But now, for Max, she was willing to swallow her pride. He couldn't believe she would say such a thing
to his mother.
He was greatly touched.
But on the contrary, Christine was furious.
She pointed at them, trembling with anger. "You, you gang up on me!?"
Max frowned.
"Mom, we didn't mean that. You're the one who's holding us back."
Then he murmured.
"We're now in an enlightened world, but you don't seem to be open-minded enough. Are you trying to
arrange my marriage?"
"You!"
Max quickly stepped forward and caught his mother when she was about to pass out from anger.
But no sooner than he touched her than he was pushed away.
"Go away!" She shouted, "I raised you better than this! You and this woman ranged against me! Well,
since you're so in love, let's see if that's true! Time will tell!"
Then she left in a huff.
Max was worried about his mother leaving like this in anger.
So he said to Laura in a low voice, "I should go check on her."
After Laura nodded, he immediately went after his mother.
Outside the Villa, Christine was about to get in the car.
To her surprise, Max stopped her.
The cool, dignified Max, pouted, in front of his mother, which surprised Jim and the others.
"Max, buzz off!"
"No!" He took her arm and shook his mother, "Mom, don't be mad. We really love each other, and she's
the love of my life. If I can't marry her, I'll stay single forever! And you won't have any grandchildren if I
become a monk or something."
Christine had to laugh despite herself.
"You? A monk? Don't be ridiculous! Did you forget? You once told me that Lily Thomas was the love of
your life. And then you guys broke up. How come you're not a monk now?"
Max was speechless.
Jim and the others, who were standing nearby, burst into laughter.
Max gave them a hard stare and they all stopped laughing immediately.
But with the corners of their lips still twitched, they tried so hard not to laugh.
Max knew that his folly had conveyed a negative impression to his mother.
He knew he was thoughtless before. He didn't really love Lily, but she threw herself to him.
He was single at that time. No man could ever resist the lure of such an attractive beauty.
He sighed with profound resignation at the thought.
"Mom, I'm serious this time. What you said just now not only broke Laura's heart, but also mine. Please
don't be mad at us and try to understand. Give us a chance to prove it to you."
Christine loved her son very much.
Then she turned to him and sneered, "Fine, I'll give you a chance. Then you should get married
tomorrow and cut ties with the Nixon family."
Max paused.
Christine continued, "I want to see if she will be with you when you lose everything and become a
NOBODY."
It suddenly struck Max that his mother did not seem so wise.
Why was she so benighted now?novelbin
However, her words awoke him.
Something raced through his mind and he said with great joy, "really?"
"What?"
Max said, "You're gonna... let us get married if I give up my title and money?"
Christine didn't believe that Laura would marry Max if Max were no longer a member of the Nixon
family.
So she just sneered, "of course. You'll see how hypocritical that woman is and how much I've done for
you."
Max was in such a hurry that he didn't catch the rest of his mother's words, then he said, "Deal! As long
as she married me out of love, you wouldn't meddle in the future. Right?"
Before Christine knew it, Max had pushed her into the car.
"Okay, okay. Go home, mom. Jim will drive you home. And when you get home, ask him to take my ID
card over here.
Christine paused and asked, "why?"
Max smiled, holding the door, "You just asked me to propose! So you know...."
Christine was stunned. She exclaimed, "When did I say that?"
The corner of Max's lip lifted.
"Mom, the men in our family, we all have rock-solid integrity. But many people think you're the most
capable person, better than any man. Now, you can't go back your own words."
This time Christine paused for a moment and caught on soon. She did seem to say that.
She thought it over and was sure that a woman like Laura who worked in the entertainment industry
must be snobby and would never marry a man who had nothing.
So she said, nonchalant, "Fine. I hope you won't regret it. And if you get nothing in the end, don't
expect me to help!"
Max said, with a casual wave, "Deal!"
Then Christine left.
After watching the car drive away, he smiled with his eyes narrowed. Then he entered the villa.
Laura was sitting in the living room.
She couldn't tell how great she felt when she said those words to Christine.
But after Christine left, she deeply regretted what she had said and she thought she shouldn't come
here in the first place.
She didn't think it through!
Although she hated Christine's snobbish manners, she thought she should put up with it for Max.
Max and his mother fell out over her, so she was overwhelmed by feelings of guilt.
