Dragon Master novel Chapter 2

Just because he accomplished nothing, just because he was a good-for-nothing and a son-in-law in the family, he couldn’t even be together with his own daughter

Hearing his daughter’s weak, heart-wrenching voice, Maximilian clenched his fist and said, “I’ll try my best to get the money.”

Hearing this, Victoria’s pupils dilated and her heart trembled slightly in shock as she stared at Maximilian’s back.

It turned out he was indeed a decent man.

Maximilian turned around and glanced seriously at Victoria, who immediately turned her head away to wipe her tears, and then left the hospital amid the reprimands of his in-laws.

“Samuel, Maximilian is simply too unbridled!”

“Grandpa, how dare this good-for-nothing disobey you?”

At the moment, the Griffiths were fanning the flames.

Samuel just shook his head and didn’t say anything.

Could Maximilian raise so much money?

Oh, not easy!

Victoria watched Maximilian’s back as he left, feeling helpless.

Although she was the granddaughter of Samuel Griffith, her mother Laura was in charge of her family’s purse-strings.

This time, it was an order from her grandpa. Even if she had some personal savings, she couldn’t take it out.

At the entrance of the bank, Maximilian stood together with Gene Williams who was tall and thin. Gene put two hundred thousand dollars he had taken out into a cloth bag, and said,

“Take it now. There’s no rush for you to pay me back.”

Maximilian took the bag, his tears glistening with gratitude, and said, “Gene, I will pay you back as soon as possible!”

“Hey, what’s the rush? We are friends.”

Gene patted Maximilian’s shoulder and said with a smile.

“Gene, if you dare to lend him the money, I will cancel our wedding, and won’t marry you!”

Suddenly, a petulant chortle came from a beautifully dressed woman, who was carrying a bag and approaching aggressively.

POP!

The woman came up and gave Maximilian a slap on his face, pointing at his nose and scolding him,

“Maximilian, you’re really shameless. How many times have you asked Gene to lend you money?

If you’re not ashamed, I’m ashamed of your behaviour!”

“Emmie, what are you doing?” Gene got anxious and tugged at the fuming Emmie.

This woman Emmie was Gene’s girlfriend. She had a beautiful face, a sexy figure, but she aimed too high and was arrogant. She was kind snobbish.

“What am I doing? Gene, I’m warning you. If you dare to lend him a penny, I won’t marry you!”

Emmie shook off Gene’s hand, held her chin high, and wrapped her arms around her chest.

Naturally, a large crowd had gathered at the door. Gene desperately tried to explain.

“Emmie, Sissi is hospitalized with leukemia and needs money urgently...”

“It’s better for that girl to die! Anyway, why are you helping an enlisted good-for-nothing who can’t even acknowledge his own daughter?” Emmie spoke harshly.

Maximilian squeezed his hand holding the cloth bag, then loosened it, and stuffed the cloth bag into Gene’s hand.

“Gene, that’s okay. I’ll attend your wedding later.”

After saying that, Maximilian turned around and left the place at a quickened pace.

Behind him came Gene’s shouting over and over again, as well as the sound of his quarrel with Emmie.

Walking down the street, Maximilian felt miserable and did not know what he should do.

At that exact moment, Victoria’s phone call came, asking him to go back to the hospital.

After thinking about it, Maximilian re-entered the hospital and met Victoria who was nervous and flustered at the entrance.

She ran over and handed Maximilian a bank card, saying,

“There are over two hundred thousand dollars here. It is my personal savings. Just tell them you borrowed it.”

Maximilian took the card, looked at the exquisite beauty with delicate features in front of him, and his heart suddenly warmed up.

Victoria was kind and gentle as usual, but had suffer grievance for four years because of him.

“Victoria, I...”Maximilian was a little choked up, and never felt more defeated the way he did now.

Ever since Victoria married him, she had long lost her aura as a daughter in the Griffith family. She had become a laughing stock in the mouths of others.

Victoria sucked her nose and said with grievance, “I just don’t want Sissi to lose her dad.”

re

Maximilian’s lips trembled slightly as he said, “Thanks! I won’t let you and Sissi down.”

“Oh, sure enough, Grandpa is right. He knows you try to give this loser money!”

Suddenly, Franklin Griffith emerged from the side at this moment, and said with a cold smile and sneer in the corner of his eyes.

Franklin thought they were screwed.

Maximilian’s eyebrows clustered as he watched Franklin leaving, and Victoria was extremely anxious.

Then he said softly, “Don’t worry, I will get this weight on me.”

Inside the ward, Samuel sternly criticized Victoria, and the bank card naturally went to Laura, Maximilian’s mother-in-law, who scolded,

“Shame on you! How dare you ask my daughter for money? What a loser you are!”

Victoria tried to say something, but was directly stopped by Laura with a glare.

All the Griffiths followed to spew curses and criticize Maximilian to the hilt.

Suddenly, a weak shout caused the crowd to freeze!

“Daddy! Don’t scold my daddy......”

On the hospital bed, Sissi whimpered, her big eyes were filled with crystal teardrops.

Daddy...
