Regal Guard of Dragon
Chapter 15 Happy Maura

"Maura, you bitch!" Hank Xia gnashed his teeth and said furiously.Never had he been so disgraced. But just now, because of Maura, Scottslapped him publicly in the family meeting. God knew how much hewanted to kill her.

At this time, Carl walked in and said, "Hank."

"Dad," Hank lowered his head. Initially, he planned to take theengineering team from Grant to Carl. But Maura had ruined everything.Even Carl's teams were gone.

He had made a Pretty Woman sized mistake.

"Alas"

Carl sighed and said, "Do you know what's your fault?"

"I shouldn't have asked for Uncle Gran's engineering team before,"Hank said, embarrassed. That's true. If he didn't do that, Maurawouldn't hold a grudge against him, let alone steal Scott's team.

Carl shook his head and replied, "No, not that; you did the right thing.”Hank looked at Scott, confused.

Carl added, "For our big family, there are no family relations at all.Everyone puts his interests in the first place. Scott is not eligible to holdthose engineering teams. You and I should manage those. Only in thatway can we maximize the interest. I'm glad that you got this point."Well then, what did I do wrong?"

"You cannot offend your grandfather. He is the one who has thebiggest say in our whole Xia Family. But you made him lose face.”Hearing this, Hank realized the problem instantly. He was too mad then."Later, when he gets better, go to your grandfather and tell him you'rewrong. You should apologize to him."

"Ok. I will. Thank you, daddy, " Hank replied.

"Hank, keep in mind that never violate your grandfather,” Carl urgedagain.

"Sure. I won't be there in the future. But Maura had stolen ourengineering team. What should we do?" Hank asked worriedly. After all,engineering teams were the core and the only way to make money forXia's Family. Without those teams, he and his father would be likegenerals without an army.

Carl shook his head slowly and said in a deep voice, "You still don't getmy point."

"Even if Maura had the engineering teams, without projects, they canachieve nothing.”

"But she has projects. That bitch had reached a cooperation with theGroup of Pinnacle. Frankly, that's a big deal.” Hank said.

Carl didn't talk about the project anymore but said, "My son, keep thatin mind—your grandfather has the most significant say in our family. *"Dad, do you mean..." Hank replied surprisedly.

Carl continued, "Maura did reach a good deal with the Group ofPinnacle, but it is up to your grandfather, who will be the head.”

"No matter how capable Maura is, she is a woman, let alone her uselesshusband. In no way will your grandpa give her the project.”

"But you, you are the only male in the third generation of our family.You're born to be the heir. Even if your grandfather is dissatisfied withyou, he will make you run the project.”

"Haha~Dad, I get it!" Hank was thrilled, "Maura was nothing but a goodhelper. Although she agreed with the Group of Pinnacle, I'm the onewho runs the project in the end. Wow, it seems I need to extend mygratitude to that bitch. Thank her for offering me such a goodopportunity.”

Carl smiled cunningly and said, "Yeah, you should thank her.”

"I think I should call her to give me back the engineering team," Hanksaid hopefully. He couldn't wait to have the team and start the projectright now.

However, Carl shook his head and said, “No. Make it slow. You can'tdemand the team first. After all, you have made a bet."

"But without the engineering team, how can we begin our project?”,Hank asked.

"The engineering team will come back to you sooner or later. Besides,then, Maura will give that to you willingly.” Carl stated confidently."Why?"

"The nine engineering teams have more than 3,000 people who are notworking now. But Maura had to pay for their salary of nearly ¥ 8million. She cannot afford that.” Carl smiled viciously.

"Now, the Project of the Spring Hill represents the top priority. Allresources of Xia's Family have to be in service of this project. Yourgrandpa will not let her pick up other works. Think about that. If theproject cannot start a few days later, the whole family will pressureMaura. Then she has no choice but to give you back the teams.”

Like a cunning fox, Carl had planned all well

Hank shook his fist in excitement. He didn't expect things would go thisway.

"Maura, huh, stupid women. All you do is for me," Hank thought.

At this time, Maura had returned home.

The first thing she did was to ask Finn Chen about his relations withShane Lin.

Finn had already prepared his answer well--they were close classmatesin college.

Maura was convinced, and even Leah started to appreciate him.Anyway, having been in Xia's Family for three years, he had achievedsomething.

Maura was delighted that, for the first time, she felt protected by herhusband.

And Finn was also very glad that he could make his wife happy.

After washing up, Finn returned to his bedroom. Despite their three-year marriage, they slept in separate rooms all the time.

Finn knew that Maura would not refuse his proposal to sleep together,but he didn’t want to.

He did hope to have coitus with Maura. He loved Maura. But he wouldrather sleep with a Maura who fell in love with him.

Finn was uncertain whether Maura loved him. Perhaps she loved him, orshe was just moved.

That's why he never crossed the line.

He hoped that one day, Maura would love him from the bottom of herheart.

That kind of sleep was much more meaningful and romantic.

"Bang! Bang!"

All of a sudden, someone was knocking on the door.
