Chapter 820 Break the Contract
“Have we heard right? What’s going on? Old Mr. Woods is apologizing to Maximilian?” the young
generation of the Griffith family were all surprised and talked about it fiercely.
They didn’t expect things to be very different from what they had imagined. Old Mr. Woods should have RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
lost his temper. The most exaggerated thing was that Old Mr. Woods called Maximilian Mister.
Andrew asked with confusion, “Woods, What’s going on? Maximilian should be punished.”
“Why should Mr. Maximilian be punished?”
Old Mr. Woods pulled a long face and asked back. Even he was so polite to Maximilian, but Samuel
wanted to punish Maximilian, which was crazy.
He suddenly thought of a word mentioned by Connor. Connor said that Mr. Maximilian liked to keep a
low profile. Only then did he gradually understand that Mr. Maximilian had remained very mysterious
and had not revealed his identity.
Thinking of this, Old Mr. Woods was relieved and withheld himself from speaking out Maximilian’s
identity.
Maximilian gave him an angry stare, thinking that Old Mr. Woods was too bad at acting. It was very
easy for people to see his flaws by addressing him with great respect in public.
When Samuel heard this, he suddenly became dumb. He was speechless for a while. He didn’t expect
Old Mr. Woods to be so partial to Maximilian.
At this moment, Andrew began to feel depressed, ‘When did Maximilian know Old Mr. Woods?’ They
concluded that Maximilian must have a good relationship with Old Mr. Woods.
Old Mr. Woods coughed and said, “Mr. Maximilian, last time I owed you a favor. This time I will return
the favor.”
Just then, everyone was shocked. Being able to make Old Mr. Woods owe the favor was not what
ordinary people could do.
Andrew thought that Maximilian had a very good relationship with Old Mr. Woods. When he heard this,
his worries disappeared.
‘Anyway, Old Mr. Woods just owed Maximilian a favor. He won’t help Maximilian all the time.’ Before,
Andrew was worried that it would be even more difficult to deal with Victoria if Old Mr. Woods helped
her.
“Thank you,” Maximilian responded according to Old Mr. Woods’s train of thought.
Seeing his father staring at him, Gail was shocked for a few seconds before reacting. Then he got to
the point, “Sorry, I was too hasty before. I don’t want compensation, and I have brought this contract.”
Andrew et al. were overjoyed and shocked. They knew that Gail was a person who would seek
revenge for the smallest grievance. Who knew that not only did he not need compensation this time,
but he also took the initiative to bring the contract.
Samuel was fully relieved. He had been worried that Gail would come to look for trouble, and then the
Griffith family would be finished.
Seeing Gail’s attitude now, Samuel knew that the crisis of the Griffith family had been relieved.
But the relatives present of the Griffith family, instead of thanking Maximilian, thought it was
reasonable. In their mind, Maximilian was the cause of this trouble, so it was normal for him to solve it.
Iris was not stupid. Since Maximilian said that he had an idea, she knew that Maximilian was not joking.
Plus the things that happened today, she regretted it in her heart.
She didn’t expect Maximilian to have such a wide network of contacts and even know Old Mr. Woods.
She regretted opposing Maximilian before. If she had treated Maximilian better, she would not have
deserved this.
Andrew rubbed his hands with excitement and got ready to take the contract, “Don’t be so polite. Why
must you send it in person? We can go and get it ourselves.”
At this moment, Gail withdrew the contract and said with a frown, “This contract is for Mr. Maximilian.”
“What? He is just a matrilocal son-in-law of our Griffith family. This contract is of no use to him. You
might as well leave it to us.” Andrew looked at Maximilian with contempt and said most blandly.
After Gail saw that Andrew was so rude to Maximilian, he felt a little unhappy. Then he said, “Except for
Mr. Maximilian, no one is qualified to accept the contract.”
Just then, both Andrew and Darian pulled a long face. What did this mean? Could it be that they were
not as good as a matrilocal son-in-law?
Gail would rather give the contract to a matrilocal son-in-law than to them, which made them feel very
annoyed and humiliated.
Samuel didn’t expect Gail to be so stubborn and looked at Marcus angrily. Feeling Samuel’s gaze,
Marcus, who was afraid of Samuel since childhood, couldn’t help shuddering.
Marcus was also caught in a dilemma at the moment. He was somewhat selfish. If Maximilian got this
contract, he would transfer it to his daughter. Then the final benefit would belong to their family.
On the contrary, if he refused, his eldest brother and second brother would get this opportunity. But he
also couldn’t disobey Samuel. For an instant, he was caught in a dilemma.
Seeing Maximilian take the contract, Andrew was immediately anxious. He didn’t expect that
Maximilian would dare to accept the contract. Then Andrew stretched out his hand and threatened,
“Maximilian, give me the contract quickly.”
“Uncle, you seem to have forgotten the bet we made before,” Maximilian asked with a smile.
Andrew and Darian looked at each other. Only then did they remember the bet they had just made with
Maximilian. Too many unexpected things happened just now, so they temporarily forgot. Now
Maximilian reminded them, and they looked pale at once.
They didn’t want to fulfill their promise. What they valued were the company’s interests. If they really
gave all the shares in the company to Victoria in this way, they could only have to live on air.
“Maximilian, don’t mention this matter. It was your fault, and you should bear it.” Andrew was very
clever and immediately blamed Maximilian in turn.
Maximilian said indifferently, “Uncle, it seems that you want to break the contract?”
He had long known that Andrew and Darian were untrustworthy, but he still had a way to deal with
untrustworthy people.
In order not to give up their shares in the Griffith Group, Andrew and Marcus couldn’t take care of so
much and then he nodded shamelessly.
The relatives of the Griffith family had a lot of complaints about Andrew and Marcus. In their mind,
Andrew and Marcus had become untrustworthy.
Andrew and Marcus looked very ugly after seeing the sneer of the relatives around them.
“Okay, here you go.” Maximilian handed the contract to Andrew and cast a glance at Gail.
Gail immediately understood what Maximilian meant and decisively snatched the contract.
