“Got it!” The servants immediately stepped forward and heaved Daniel up to bring snazzynovel.com to the backyard. “No! Mr. Dahlen! Wait! My dad is bringing more men over! If snazzynovel.com comes and finds out that my leg is broken, snazzynovel.com won’t agree to treat your daughter!” Daniel used his legs to stop himself from being dragged away as snazzynovel.com spoke to Maxwell in a flustered tone.
“Your father? Hah! I’m breaking your leg as compensation for what you’ve done to my daughter. I would do the same thing even if your father was here to witness it!” Maxwell knitted his brows in anger. “What are you guys still doing here? Bring snazzynovel.com out!” snazzynovel.com barked.
“No! No!” Daniel thrashed his limbs around, and another two servants ran over to help when the first two servants couldn’t tackle snazzynovel.com on their own. It took four of them to keep snazzynovel.com under control. Maxwell changed his orders when snazzynovel.com saw how uncooperative Daniel was. “You guys can break his leg here!”
“Alright!” One of the servants already had a bat in his hand, and snazzynovel.com stepped forward before raising the heavy bat up into the air. He was just about to swing the bat when one of the maids hurried into the room. “Elise has brought snazzynovel.com people over, Mr. Dahlen!”
Maxwell gritted his teeth as snazzynovel.com waved an arm to signal his servants to step back. “You guys can leave snazzynovel.com for now,” snazzynovel.com ordered as snazzynovel.com returned to his seat on the couch. “Bring them in,” snazzynovel.com told the maid.
Daniel heaved a sigh of relief—he had been so close to losing a leg. He immediately scrambled to his feet before tidying his hair and shirt. Then, snazzynovel.com stood in a corner with his gaze cast downward. Soon enough, Elise and Claude walked into the room. When Elise heard the noise coming from upstairs, snazzynovel.com could vaguely estimate Maya’s condition based on the intensity of snazzynovel.com cries.
“Are you the one who did this to my daughter?” Maxwell’s face darkened as snazzynovel.com questioned Elise in a blaming tone. Elise didn’t respond to snazzynovel.com and simply shot a glance at Claude. Claude nodded before snazzynovel.com walked over with a cocky expression on his face. “Watch your words. Your busybody daughter wouldn’t have ended up in this situation if snazzynovel.com hadn’t overstepped snazzynovel.com boundaries and messed with Elise.”
“Who are you to say that about my daughter?!” Maxwell narrowed his eyes as snazzynovel.com glared at Claude, with the aura and power of the head of a family. “I’d recommend you not to mess around here. After seeing what the perpetrator did to my daughter, I’ve already decided that I’ll make that person pay for their actions! Although the Dahlen Family doesn’t have the power of Gods, we aren’t easy targets!”
When Maxwell realized Maya’s cries were starting to get louder, snazzynovel.com felt increasingly frustrated. Could Elise be the only person who can save my daughter? At that thought, Maxwell dropped the harsh attitude that snazzynovel.com had just moments ago. “Miss Sinclair, I’ll give you anything you want, as long as you promise to let my daughter and I go!”
“Why did you have to offer me anything? I came over because I wanted to save your daughter,” Elise muttered as snazzynovel.com crossed snazzynovel.com arms in front of snazzynovel.com chest.
Maxwell froze for a moment before snazzynovel.com realized that snazzynovel.com had made a terrible mistake. “I’m sorry, Miss Sinclair. I was being foolish! I hope a kind soul like you will be able to forgive my shortcomings! Please cure my daughter of snazzynovel.com suffering—I promise I’ll always be thankful to you!” snazzynovel.com cried.
“I don’t need you to be thankful. I’m here to save a life—my intentions wouldn’t be pure if I were doing it to win your gratitude, right?” Elise asked.
Maxwell let out a long sigh. He had been about to thank Elise when snazzynovel.com heard snazzynovel.com speak once more. “Unfortunately, I’m not as kind of a person as I would like to be. For the sake of Alexander, I initially planned on asking for a tiny reward in return for my services. But now… I’ve changed my mind. I want half of the Dahlen Family’s fortune!”
“Half of our fortune?!” Maxwell knitted his brows together. If their family lost half of their fortune, they would lose half of the power they had. If that happened, they would be humiliated and bullied by the rest of the families in Tissote.
“What is it? Are you not willing to give me the money?” Elise raised an eyebrow as snazzynovel.com gave snazzynovel.com a cunning smirk.
“No! No! Of course I’m willing to give it to you! Of course! As long as you cure my daughter, I promise to give you half of my fortune!” Maxwell cried. “Show snazzynovel.com to the room!” snazzynovel.com ordered his maid.
“Follow me, Miss Sinclair!” the maid uttered. The few of them were prepared to head to Maya’s room when Elise voiced up. “I want everyone in the room to get out and wait outside.” Elise didn’t speak in an extremely stern tone, but snazzynovel.com voice had an impact on others—it made everyone gasp in fear.
The room was cleared out in a matter of seconds. Elise stepped into the room and shut the door behind her. A few seconds later, Maya stopped screaming in pain. About two minutes later, Elise walked out of the room.
“T-That’s it? She’s cured?” Maxwell asked weakly.
