Female Novel
Chapter 636 A well-rounded Man
Keegan, dumbed with a sad look in his eyes, had lost his vigorous and confident gesture when they
first met. The look of his face was changing constantly and stopped when it turned into a pale face like
a sick man.
Finally, he straightened his back and stood up, rubbing the middle of his waist and making himself look
growingly sturdy.
Looking into Maximilian’s eyes, Keegan gave a sardonic grin and said, "Sophistry helps you not,
Maximilian. And I will prove you the greatness of Kondratiev! This year, there will be an annual
economic forum, and I will give a keynote speech. I will send you an invitation, and please come to see
how those economists show their admiration and respect for me!"
"Well, I am afraid I have to reject it. I need to take care of my business, and my wife Victoria needs my
supports. In a word, what I want to say is, fuck your representative speech, and I wish you could have anovelbin
sweet time at the stupid forum."
The delicate hairstyle of Keegan was finally messed up, just like his unsteady mood.
He was so angry that his eyes looked bloodshot, and said to Victoria in a wrathful tone, "I must warn
you, Miss Victoria, this shameless man does not deserve you! Leave this arrogant man with such a
despicable tongue, or terrible misfortune will come to you in your later life, of which I don’t want to see!"
"Thank you for your great consideration, Dr. Keegan, and it is fine for you to walk away from the affairs
of our two. We are a couple of life and death, and I would be glad to be with him no matter what will
come for us. You'd better finish your coffee as soon as possible, before it is getting cold. It's a pity that
you failed the job interview." Victoria responded to Keegan's provocation firmly.
Keegan, scratching his chest, felt like he was going to collapse, 'I, as man who has won the doctorate
of Wharton failed to pass the interview? What a shame!'
The manager standing aside had noticed that both Maximilian and Victoria were dissatisfied with
Keegan, and made eye contact with the plump waitress behind Keegan.
The waitress moved quietly to Keegan’s side, raising the coffee cup to his lips.
Keegan was frightened by the waitress's ghostly movement. He fell down from the sofa and yelled in a
half-crying tone, "You guys are bullies! I promise I will make you regret for what you have done to me
today, including the fellows in Lasdun!"
"Well, I can't wait to see it." said Maximilian with a teasing smile.
"Just wait and see!" cried Keegan, rolling and crawling out of the room.
Getting out of Lasdun, Keegan got back to his car and fished out his phone. He briefly browsed his
contacts and talked to himself with hesitation, "Shall I contact Thompson? My tutor says he is in H city
now, and Maximilian will not be a problem anymore if I contact him."
After a while of silence, Keegan finally made the decision and dialed Thompson’s number.
The call was through. After a long grumbling, an evil smile emerged on his face. He said to Thompson,
"I will be in H city these days. My father has a history with Victoria’s family, and I will figure out a way to
bring you guys into the housewarming banquet."
"That would be marvelous! Just help us get into the banquet. After we fix Maximilian, you can then do
whatever you want to him." Thompson responded in a rather delighted tone.
In these days, Thompson and his men had been cautious and restrained, hiding themselves in the
shadows and waiting for an opportunity. After a few discussions, they had reached an agreement and
decided that the housewarming banquet would be their chance.
What made them frustrated was that there was no way to slip into the banquet without attracting any
attention, as they were all foreigners and it was easy to distinguish them even with disguise.
Now, things had changed, as they could get help from Keegan. Therefore, it would be much easier for
them to carry out the plan.
On the other end of the line, Keegan gave a joyous response to Thompson, "OK, you have my words!
By then, only trampling on his legs and face can ease my rage!"
Keegan hung up the phone after exchanging more words with Thompson. Afterwards, he spat on the
ground and murmured, "Let's see who will laugh to the last, Maximilian. As a man with status and
background, I will never try any equalitarian strategy with you again!"
In the private room, Maximilian and Victoria were enjoying their desserts and juices, talking with each
other happily.
Having noticed the sense of romance between them, the manager asked the waitresses and went out
of the room together, leaving Maximilian and Victoria alone.
"I have never noticed you know so much about economics. Is there anything else you can do but have
not told me yet?" Victoria said, looking at Maximilian with her blinking eyes, as if he was her idol.
"Well, I have read some books, and fortunately one book mentioned Kondratiev wave." Maximilian
answered, "As for what I can do, that is a long story to tell. Instruments such as harmonica, I play the
best among many others; painting, my availability to that is only restricted to abstraction; equestrian, I
think my skill is at the top level; golf, skating, diving, surfing, parachuting, Para motoring. Wow, I feel
almost charmed by myself after mentioning so much of them!"
Talking about his versatility, Maximilian felt he was by no means ordinary. All these things were
intended to nurture nobility rather than usual hobbits of the common people.
"Impressive! Listen, I'm wondering if we could go to the coast and try diving and surfing after everything
goes on track in the company. I'm a newbie and you have to teach me swimming, diving, and surfing. I
heard there will be sharks in the sea... You can take good care of me, can't you?" Victoria said with
anticipation.
"Of course! I'm a good enough coach and you can count on me for that. If there is any shark during to
come, I would kick them away and keep you safe and sound." Maximilian answered with full
confidence.
"Your safety means a lot to me, my dear, and I don’t want you to fight with the sharks. All I want is to
have a happy life with you. Now, close your eyes, and I'm going to reward you for your good
performance."
"Well, I would like to know what kind of reward requires my eyes closed." Though he said in a doubtful
way, Maximilian closed his eyes before his words came out.
Her face red with shyness, Victoria said bashfully, "Just close your eyes, and wait until I told you to
open it."
Hearing that, Maximilian squeezed his eyes and closed tightly. In the meantime, Victoria also slowly
closed her eyes, put her face close to that of Maximilian, and gave him a sweet, tender kiss.
