Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

Chapter 799 They Will Teach Him A Lesson!

While Allison fretted over what excuse she should give to ask for money from her son, she received an invitation to

a video call on her phone.

She picked up her phone and saw that it was Maxine calling her. She instantly accepted the invitation and said

exaggeratedly, "Are you already back home, Maxine? You're only gone for a few days, but I've already missed you!"

Maxine did not stay for too long in Crawford Manor, but she knew how to butter up to Allison. Somehow, she knew

Allison's preferences, and Allison was perfectly satisfied by every lavish gift Maxine bought her.

Moreover, Maxine's father was a much more influential figure than Bianca's father. That was the main reason why

Allison liked Maxine. Of course, Maxine was a sensible and obedient girl, unlike that ingrate Bianca, who would

always go against her wishes.

Maxine's delicate and petite face appeared on Allison's phone screen.

She smiled sweetly as she greeted Allison, "I miss you too, Aunt Allison. I thought I could stay over for longer if I had

been successfully accepted to Luke's company, but unfortunately... sigh. Never mind, I'll go and visit you whenever

I'm free. How have you been?"

Allison wiped away an imaginary tear on her face and said with fake sorrow, "Sigh, things have been horrible here.

You should have seen the news about T Corporation's accident, right? I've been physically and mentally exhausted

because of that. Your cousin Luke is in the hospital because of the violent mob. Things are chaotic in the Crawford

household. Sigh, we're so unlucky!" "What?" Maxine's voice became shrill all of a sudden. "Is Luke in the hospital? Is

he injured badly?"

Allison tried to look sadder than before. "His injuries are serious. He broke several ribs, and there was a blood clot in

his skull when he was struck by a thick steel pipe. He almost couldn't survive the operation... My son is truly blessed

to be saved from the reaper, but he's still in pretty bad shape..."

Maxine’s face turned pale all of a sudden. "How could that happen?

Shouldn't he have bodyguards protecting him? How could he be so heavily injured?"

Allison noticed the worry in Maxine's eyes and remembered how Maxine blushed when she first saw Luke. "Maxine,

I'd... I'd rather not trouble you, but I don't have any other choice," she took the opportunity to say, "The accident at

The Galleria is too serious, and monetary compensation won't please everyone! If T Corporation can't overcome

this obstacle, we'll be bankrupt soon...

"Maxine, do you think you can help me ask your father for a favor? Luke will need his help to solve this problem. If

you can help us, then I'll forever be in debt to you, and Luke will appreciate your help too. You'll be the savior of our

family!"

Maxine saw that Allison kept on wiping tears from her eyes and looked at her pleadingly. "Don't worry, Aunt Allison,"

she tried to comfort her, "I'll let Dad know about this and convince him to help you. Can you give me some time?"

Allison nodded hurriedly and sighed with relief. "Alright, I'm relieved when you say that. We're relying on you now,

Maxine..." "Don't say that, Aunt Allison. We're relatives, and we should help each other in times of need. How about

this..."

Maxine chatted with Allison for another ten minutes before hanging up. She remained unsettled for a long time.

Meanwhile, back in the beauty salon, Allison held two split chili peppers in her left hand and gestured a thumbs-up

at Elise. The sorrow that she displayed during the video call could not be seen on her face now.

She was very satisfied with Elise's idea. Elise knew that Allison needed to cry, so she handed her the chili peppers to

smear on her eyes.

In the capital, Maxine's unease grew after she ended the call. She did not know if her father would help Luke,

considering that she had complained to her parents about Luke's harshness ever since she got home.

Irving Douglas and Verona Smythe, Maxine's parents, were happy that their daughter was back in the capital.

The elderly couple had two sons and a daughter. Both of their sons were outstanding politicians, but the youngest

daughter whom they conceived at an old age had been pampered since she was a girl.

Even so, Irving and Verona were strict parents, and they did not spoil Maxine.

Maxine was sent to a boarding school overseas when she was young so that she could learn how to be

independent.

Of course, her mother could not bear to see her precious daughter leave. The parents had quarreled for a long

time because of that, but Irving insisted on his decision despite Verona's threats.

Maxine only returned to the country after she was soon to graduate from university.

Verona was elated that her beloved daughter had finally returned. She thought that Maxine would spend some

more time with her, but Maxine said that she had to hand in an internship report before she could graduate, and

she insisted on doing her internship at T Corporation in A City.

Naturally, Verona was unwilling to see her daughter leave again.

There were plenty of famous corporations in the capital, and Verona could have found a cushy position for her

daughter by utilizing her connections. Maxine could have led an easy life.

T Corporation might be one of the top hundred corporations in the world, but A City was far away from the capital,

and their influence did not reach there.

Moreover, the Douglas family did not have a cordial relationship with the Crawford family. Allison and Irving might

be cousins, but Verona did not like that stupid and materialistic woman.

Fortunately, Allison's son was a natural-born leader who turned a small company on the brink of bankruptcy into

one of the biggest corporations in the country. Ever since then, the two families shared a flimsy relationship.

Maxine's parents had tried to talk her out of it, but Maxine seemed to be obsessed with the idea of working in T

Corporation. She said that working in T Corporation had been her dream even before she returned to the country.

Her parents had no choice but to let her go.

They expected that an overseas graduate like her would easily score a spot in the company, but she failed her

interview.

Maxine was happy before she departed for A City, but she was dejected when she returned to the capital. Her

parents found out that Luke was the one who did not want their daughter to work in his company, and their

dissatisfaction toward Luke grew.

They did not understand why Luke would not do that favor for their daughter but instead had humiliated her.

They thought that the young man had been arrogant. Soon, they would teach him a lesson for offending their

daughter!
