Female Novel
Chapter 850 Fell For the Trap
Maximilian had been there so he talked to Grace, “But I hope you can calm down before you take any
actions.” Although Grace was good at sorcery and mastered some martial arts, he was worried she
was no match to her rival in terms of dirty tricks.
“No sweat! I can cope with that,” said Grace confidently.
Maximilian said with a smile, “I have confidence on you.” He didn’t want to meddle in it because he
assumed Grace would be cautious with her actions. Grace set out immediately and Maximilian didn’t
stop her any more. It should be Grace who avenged her father.
Victoria was confused so she asked, “What’s going on? Where is she going?”
Maximilian said with a smile, “Don’t worry. She’s just out for a walk. Are you having a fever? Why is
your face burning like mad? Shall I give you an injection?”
Victoria blushed and rolled her eyes at Maximilian, “Knock it off.”
Ever since the Topyuan Group’s crisis had been tackled, various forces started to stir the water. Theo
and Darian had thought that Topyuan Group would have gone bankrupt in the fierce battle. So they had
mixed feelings when they heard the news that Topyuan Group’s crisis had been tackled. They were
happy because the Griffith’s company would not be in danger then but they hated to see that Victoria
got through the crisis a second time. But if people came after Victoria, it wouldn’t do them any good
either. They were indeed in a dilemma.
On the terrace, Dragon Queen was astonished at the news and her face turned black. Harley was also
shocked at the jaw-dropping news. It came as a total surprise to Dragon Queen that her elaborate
scheme had been destroyed by Maximilian easily, with which she had hoped to give him a death blow.
Her unexpected failure reminded her of the story of Chou Yu, a famous general back in the ancient
three Kingdoms, who suffered a fiasco while trying to take down Liu Bei, the Lord of Virtue. Although
she was nothing like Chou Yu, she did suffer a fiasco.
Earth to him, Harley catered to Dragon Queen, “How is that possible?”
Dragon Queen looked at him as if she were looking at an idiot, “Didn’t you say it was brilliant?”
Harley was embarrassed. He just put forward an idea. It was not his business to make sure that it
worked. He had also thought it would have worked out. He was shocked at the result too. He believed
there must have been something wrong.
“Dragon Queen, please don’t fly off the handle. I will go ask those people,” said Harley trying to pass
the buck. Faced with Dragon Queen’s rage, he could only bite the bullet.
Dragon Queen looked black and said, “Cut it out. He won and I lost.”
“Dragon Queen, you won’t lose. It was just a narrow escape for him.” Harley was still trying to butter up
Dragon Queen, which would have worked at usual. But at that time, Dragon Queen didn’t buy it.
Instead, she stared at Harley coldly. Terrified by Dragon Queen’s cold look, he quivered and left
immediately.
Connor felt relieved when Topyuan Group’s crisis had been tackled. But he was still not sure if he had
done the right thing. He was worried that he might not have the best of it. While he was thinking, he
received a threatening letter which really made him sweat. He was prestigious in H City. Yet, he was
threatened, which was a defiance to his authority. There were few people in H City who dared to set
against him. At the thought of this, he became angry but he soon calmed down to figure out who it
might be to threaten him. When he saw the signature of Dragon Queen, he knew Dragon Queen had
already come after him. He looked gloomy pondering whether he should tell Mr. Lee about it.
Maximilian walked out of his bedroom and lay on the couch casually watching TV. Suddenly, he got a
call from Grace. He was shocked after he answered the phone because Grace seemed to be asking
him for help on the phone. He knew she was in danger. He had thought that she might fall for her rival’s
trap and it turned out to be true. He rubbed his head trying to figure it out.
“You are poisoned with my cartilaginous powder. Do you feel sluggish?” Came a strange man’s voice
with a snicker.
Maximilian knew it was getting worse. He asked Jude to locate Grace and rushed out to his car after
telling Victoria that he was going out. He started the engine and his car ran out like a lightening with a
roaring sound.
He was familiar with the routes in H City and he knew there was a shortcut which really saved him quite
some time. Maximilian sped up and drove extremely fast. Finally he arrived.
Grace tried to keep herself awake before Maximilian arrived. She knew she could be saved as long as
Maximilian made it in time. She looked at the vague figures in front of her coldly and said resentfully,
“Shame on you.”
“Ha-ha! If I hadn’t played dirty, I wouldn’t have made it. Say, hottie, you’d better not struggle.”
Grace really regretted her action. She wouldn’t have ended up like this if she had listened to
Maximilian. It was because of her reckless action that she was stuck in such a circumstance.novelbin
The people around her snickered. They were so horny at the sight of Grace’s great curve which was
like a perfect statue to them. They were obsessed with her. “It’s perfect.” They took a deep breath and
were about to get their hands on her when Maximilian broke in, which startled the people on the
spot.
