Isaac followed the man all the way to the second floor. After knocking on the door, the man said respectfully, "Master." He turned around and glanced at Isaac, "Issac is here."
"Come in!"
The man pushed the door open, "Please."
After Isaac entered the room, the man closed the door.
Maxwell was sitting at the tea table and making tea leisurely. Seeing Isaac come in, he glanced at him and filled his tea cup before putting down the teapot.
"You're here?"
Isaac replied coldly, "How can I not come since you've made much ado?"
Maxwell did not care about his sarcastic tone, "You arrived earlier than I thought."
"Where are they?" Isaac didn't want to talk nonsense with him.
"Don't worry." Maxwell took a sip of tea, "They are very good. Where are the things? Have you brought them all?"
Isaac waved the briefcase in his hand, indicating that everything Maxwell wanted was inside.
Maxwell smiled with satisfaction and then sighed softly, "How ridiculous it is! I think that men should be indifferent and heartless in order to get great achievements, but both of my sons are spoony. Lucho has been loving Myesha for so many years and has no interest in other women. You and Adele have known each other for more than 20 years, right? Even if you thought she was dead, you couldn't let go of your love for her."
"However, this is your weakness. Otherwise..."
'Tve brought what you want. I don't want to talk about anything else. Let them go right now!"
Maxwell glanced at him lightly, "Now, you're in my territory, so I can do whatever I want." After that, he pointed to the opposite seat, "Sit down. It seems that we have never sat together and chatted in peace. Why don't we take this opportunity and have a talk?"
Isaac frowned but sat down as he was told.
Maxwell handed a cup of tea to Isaac, "That child..."
Isaac's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, "When did you know them?"
"When you said that you wanted to work in Bai Company." Maxwell smiled, "Isaac, I thought you repented, but you didn't. Although you are my son, to be honest, you are inferior to Lucho."
Hearing this, Isaac had no extra feelings. Although he heard these words from his nominal father, he didn't care. Maxwell might not regard him as his own son. Moreover, he even hoped that Maxwell was not his father.
"That's my business."
"But this is all I can give you now. I can't give you anything else."
"No." Maxwell shook his head slowly, "You can. You gave Bai Company a severe blow in a short day, and this is not something that your small company can do. If I'm not wrong, you should have other companies, right? Besides, Cheng Company and Lu Enterprises can help you. You have a good relationship with Benjamin and James. As long as you agree with me, they will not say no."
"You think too much!" Isaac said coldly, "Don't think about getting anything from them!"
"But now Adele and the child are under my control. Do you want them to suffer? You love Adele so much that you can do anything for her, don't you? Even if you don't care about her, can you abandon your son?"
He spoke in a light tone. It seemed that he was sure to win.
Isaac was overwhelmed by anger. He slammed the tea table fiercely, "You!"
Maxwell did not even blink and said with a faint smile, "Isaac, you're indeed too young and naive. I've told you that a man couldn't really fall in love with a woman. Otherwise, you would be doomed because of your love sooner or later. As long as you don't want to see them suffer, you have no choice!"
Isaac closed his eyes with depression. When he opened his eyes again, his eyes were extremely bloodshot, "Fine! I will try my best to meet your request. But I haven't prepared what you want yet, and I need some time." He pushed the briefcase to Maxwell, "In order to show my sincerity, I can give you these things first. As for other things, I can't give them to you unless I see them safe and sound with my own eyes."
