Dragon Master

Chapter 121: A Hundred Things



The last thing Victoria wanted was to have Humphrey meet Maximilian. But with the presence of so many relatives and friends,
Maximilian had to show up.
The anxious Victoria shut her eyes, feeling resentful about Maximilian’s incompetence!
As long as Maximilian had got even a tiny bit of balls, she shouldn't have been so exhausted.
Creak.
The bedroom door was pushed open, and the neatly dressed Maximilian walked out.
Humphrey saw the well-dressed Maximilian and was startled at once. He was totally amazed!
That suit was the latest limited-edition by Givenchy!
The price of his suit was worth five times more than that of his own Givenchy suit!
Victoria was also stunned, as she had never seen Maximilian so well-dressed. Maximilian had never dressed like this before, nor
had he got any outfits that suited him so well.
Swoosh.

All the relatives and friends stared at Maximilian, as they were surprised by his appearance today.
Even Marcus and Laura thought to themselves that finally Maximilian honored them for once.
"Ah..." Iris’ laughter broke the silence.
The laughter made everyone come to their senses and they were staring at Iris.
Iris wore a look of "I knew this would happen long ago", raised her head and gave Maximilian a contemptuous look.
“Maximilian, you actually put on this suit. How shameless you are! Do you think no one could tell that you are wearing a knockoff
Givenchy? You are insulting us. A trash like you doesn't even deserve such crap."
Iris’ words were like a huge rock plunging down into the water, sending waves in people's heart immediately.
The crowd, who had originally been amazed by Maximilian’s change, began to roar with laughter at this moment, and the
atmosphere was full of sarcasm.
Humphrey looked as if he understood all at once, and felt secretly ashamed of the fact that he had just been amazed by him.

How should he have been surprised by the knockoff on this trash?
“Well, well, no wonder. This suit by Givenchy is a limited edition. Even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it. Only
those who are of very high social status are eligible to purchase it.”
"It’s been long said that you are a poor guy. But even if you are poor, you should at least have some pride, right? You are
disgracing Victoria by wearing such a knockoff. Listen to everyone's laughter! Half of the sarcasm in the laughter is for you, while
the other half is for Victoria.”
"You are hurting Victoria by doing this! As a man, shouldn't you reflect on yourself? Even I am feeling heartbroken and sorry for
Victoria. A trash like you doesn't deserve Victoria at all!"
Humphrey was talking agitatedly. He turned to stare affectionately at Victoria, "Victoria, you’ve gone through so much hardship
all these years, and I could imagine how much you have suffered. I hope that you won't be suffering any more from now on, or
having a rough time any longer for this despicable piece of shit.”
Humphrey had long prepared these words. He had just been waiting for such an opportunity!
Finally, Maximilian was offering it!
Humphrey was getting so into himself, and his touching and emotional speech excited all the relatives and friends of the Griffith
Family.

In their minds, if Victoria could marry Humphrey, they would have a strong connection in money management and investment,
which would definitely benefit them.
“Humphrey is really in love with Victoria, and I'm moved simply by looking at it. If I were Victoria, I would definitely divorce
Maximilian right now."
"That loser Maximilian doesn't deserve Victoria to begin with. Victoria indeed has been suffering through all these years.
Marrying a loser is a tragedy."
“It’s OK if he is a loser, but why would he wear a knockoff? He is pretending to be someone he is not. When he is exposed, it will
disgrace the Griffith Family, especially us."
The relatives of the Griffith Family were whispering and discussing, and everyone threw a disdainful gaze at Maximilian.
At a loss what to do, Victoria stared at Maximilian. Now she, who was caught in between, was feeling extremely upset.
Victoria knew Maximilian was putting up a front for her by doing this. However, he was exposed on the spot at this moment,
which led to the digs against Victoria. This really hurt Victoria so much.
"Victoria, my suit is authentic. It is really not a knockoff."
Maximilian’s heart skipped a beat when he saw Victoria upset. He held Victoria's hand in a flurry and wanted to explain to her.

“Well, even if this trash is exposed, he still refuses to admit it. This suit is very expensive, and how could a poor guy like you
afford it?"
“Humphrey told us all. If the suit is authentic, not only should the buyer be rich, but he also has to be someone of high status.
What kind of status does a loser like you have?"
“Maximilian, are you on the Forbes Billionaires List, or are you so powerful that you are playing a central role somewhere? You
are the king of a public toilet at most, and you can only run a cesspit!"
Led by Iris, the relatives of the Griffith Family started to make fun of Maximilian together.
Anyway, it wouldn't hurt to diss him; on the contrary, it made them happy.
Maximilian looked calm. He had long been used to taunts coming from the relatives of the Griffith Family.
Fingering the box in his pocket, Maximilian calmed down the anger in his heart slowly. It wasn’t because he didn’t want to get
revenge, but it was not the best time now. 'You are all laughing at me. In the end, I will make all of you regret what you have
done to me!’
Victoria let out a sigh, nudged Maximilian and said in a low voice, "Go back and get changed. Don’t wear this suit anymore.”
Victoria was having mixed feelings, and her face darkened.

Why would Maximilian embarrass her at this moment?
"Why? It’s authentic. When dad's birthday party is over, we can go to the shop and verify its authenticity. If it's fake, I, Maximilian,
will eat this suit in front of you all!" Maximilian asserted.
Laura could see the situation was getting awkward. She thought to herself. There was no rush to force Maximilian to get a
divorce right now. They could wait until the birthday party was over.
The birthday party was carefully prepared by Humphrey, and they could insult Maximilian later. When the party finished, they
could have it out with him.
"Since Maximilian said that, let's not embarrass him anymore. But when the party is over, if the suit is proved a fake, I don’t want
you to eat it. You just need to promise me one thing."
Laura stared calmly at Maximilian, a cold smile hanging on her lips, as if she had nailed him down.
Maximilian knew what the so-called "one thing” Laura was talking about even without thinking. She definitely wanted him to
divorce Victoria.
"Mom, why bother with Maximilian? I'll ask him to get changed right now."

Victoria said anxiously and then glared at Maximilian, gesturing him to change his clothes.
Maximilian couldn't look more composed. He said calmly, “Fine. But if my suit is authentic, I also hope that you could promise me
one thing.”
Everyone was stunned. No one expected that Maximilian dared to talk back!
Laura's heart jolted. It was the first time she had seen Maximilian talk to her like this. She wanted to smack her hand down on to
the table on the spot, glared at him and gave him a lesson.
But at the thought of the relatives and friends present, as well as Humphrey, Laura suppressed it. After all, she had to maintain
her image, or else, it wouldn't be great if Humphrey was scared by her.
"Well, well, you, a loser, are getting bolder. Could it be that you are biting the bullet to pretend to be someone you are not? I'll just
give you this opportunity. As long as your suit is authentic, I, Laura Griffith, will promise you 100 things, not to mention one thing!"
