Bring Your A Game, Mr -
Chapter 440
Chapter 440 Half of the Dahlen Family's Fortune
"Got it!" The servants immediately stepped forward and heaved Daniel up to bring him to the backyard. "No! Mr. Dahlen! Wait! My dad is bringing more men over! If he comes and replaces out that my leg is broken, he won't agree to treat your daughter!" Daniel used his legs to stop himself from being dragged away as he 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 him out!" he barked. "No! No!" Daniel thrashed his limbs around, and another two servants ran over to help when the first two servants couldn't tackle him on their own. It took four of them to keep him under control. Maxwell changed his orders when he 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 he 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 her people over, Mr. Dahlen!" Maxwell gritted his teeth as he waved an arm to signal his servants to step back. "You guys can leave him for now," he ordered as he returned to his seat on the couch. "Bring them in," he 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, he 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, she could vaguely estimate Maya's condition based on the intensity of her cries.
"Are you the one who did this to my daughter?" Maxwell's face darkened as he questioned Elise in a blaming tone. Elise didn't respond to him and simply shot a glance at Claude. Claude nodded before he walked over with a c***y expression on his face. "Watch your words. Your busybody daughter wouldn't have ended up in this situation if she hadn't overstepped her boundaries and messed with Elise."
"Who are you to say that about my daughter?!" Maxwell narrowed his eyes as he 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, he felt increasingly frustrated. Could Elise be the only person who can save my daughter? At that thought, Maxwell dropped the harsh attitude that he 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 she crossed her arms in front of her chest.
Maxwell froze for a moment before he realized that he 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 her suffering-I promise I'll always be thankful to you!" he 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 he heard her 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 she gave him 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 her to the room!" he 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 her 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.
