The Ancient Genes

Chapter 450: Troublesome Girl

"I am done…" August stood up.

Wilson got up as well and without paying attention to the two other guys, they walked out of the room.

"Where are you two going?" Max who was just about to enter the room, bump into them.

"Back to the Academy….I am full…" August replied and then continued further, "Here, take your phone...there was a call by the way…"

Max nodded and took his phone before looking at them, "Where are the other two?"

"I am not going to take trouble into my hand. I leave those two to you…" August replied with a smile while Wilson planned to directly walk off not wanting to get involved.

"What do you mean by that? Like in hell, I am going to do anything…." Max shook his head, he was unwilling to do this as well.

"And you stop right there...we aren't done yet.." Max immediately grabbed Wilson who was planning to run off.

The trio looked at each other. But none wanted to take the responsibility for the two drunkards in the room.

"Let's just pay the bill and leave...I am sure they will be fine somehow…" Wilson said with an annoyed look on his face.

"I agree…" August nodded.

Max was speechless seeing these two guys in perfect sync. The two guys just didn't want to deal with this….

Max was upset, he too didn't want to deal with this. But he didn't want to leave those two behind as well.

"Let's try once…." Max looked at them with a stern face.

"Fine, but if it goes beyond my tolerance limit.. I will drop them right at the spot…" August finally agreed.

Wilson reluctantly agreed as well.

They returned into the room and 20 minutes later, returned with dark faces. As for what they had happened, it was better not spoken…

Just imagine meeting your favorite Waifu in your dream…..yup that was Axel's current state…

"What now? Still wanna help him?" August looked at Max with a frown.

"Just what kind of help are you talking about? You better clarify it….." Wilson sneered as he looked at Max, "Still eager to help?''

Max's face was the worst of them. He looked terrible…..

"Let him do what he wants...I will just love to see his face when he realises it….." Max was pissed. Even as a friend, you can only help to a certain extent….you need to have a bit of self respect....

?How long will it take for you to get the job done?? Max messaged Lear.

?Lear: An hour or two...why??

?We are waiting for you….just come when you are done…..we are at Fragrance Dining, second floor...Room No. 3…? Max replied.

?The treats on me by the way...? he further added.

?Lear: You don't need to wait for me for two hours…?

?It's fine we are friends...? Max replied. He felt a bit guilty but it was fine he was still paying for his food in advance as well….

Besides, he was still a bit worried about those two in the room. In two hours, they would probably be totally wasted...at that moment, Lear could help them out…

….

Roxley Mansion, Capital.

"What are you doing? Are you even paying attention?"

Lear looked at Lora and nodded, "Yes, I am…"

"Then help me with some advice…" Lora looked at him. On the board, there was a chart.

Elly's picture was the only one with a tick on it. It was her achievement board….

"I will have to leave early...by the way…" Lear suddenly said. He has just received the message from Max and was feeling a bit guilty for lying.

"Oh..." Lora nodded as her expression dimmed down a bit.

"You don't want me to go?" Lear asked with a smile as he grabbed her hand.

"Y-You!! W-What are you doing?"? Lora was clearly flustered by his actions.

"Why don't you tell me what you were trying to do that day after the test?" Lear asked as he let her hand go.

"I-I don't know what you are talking about…" Lora replied as she turned her head away with a slight blush.

"I see….I might have had some misunderstanding I guess…" Lear replied with a smile.

He then walked up to the board and began to give her some advice on how to win her friends back as if nothing had just happened.

Lora looked at him a bit upset. The guy knew and yet he was still playing hard to get...but she wanted to be confessed to and not the other way around.

….

On the other side….

The trio had just left the restaurant when they bumped into someone.

"What are you doing here, Young Miss?" Max asked as he looked at Elly.

"Shouldn't I be asking that? What are you doing in a place like this?" Elly replied as her gaze swept through the three of them. It wasn't difficult for her to find out what kind of place this was…..

Max looked at her and then spoke to the other two with a forced smile, "I will have to leave it seems…"

Wilson and August gave him a look.? They knew the Young Miss had called earlier. ..

Wasn't this boss being a bit too nosy?

"Wait! Why don't you introduced me to your friends?" Elly suddenly grabbed Max's hand and smiled at him.

A fake smile….Max was sure it was a fake….

He suddenly had a bad feeling about it….what was she planning….

"What are you doing?'' Max muttered in a low voice.

"Didn't I ask you not to look for other girls….this matter is just not about us but our families as well…..and I don't want my family to lose face because of your actions.....? " Elly replied in a calm manner.

"Calm down...I came here on my friend's suggestion….I had no idea about this place...so don't cause any mess in public..." Max warned her. He didn't want things to go public because if an opportunity arises in future to break the engagement he would definitely be willing.

Hence, it was better to keep things secret and prevent any damage to her reputation which might be caused due to broken engagement.

"Friends?" Elly looked at Wilson and August.

She then took a step forward and pointed at Max, "He is my boyfriend, please don't take him to such places from now on…"

Wilson and August turned their heads to look at Max as their eyes slowly widened. But they only saw him massaging his forehead with a troubled look on his face.

'This girl..? ' Max looked at her and sighed. Even though Lisa had a calamity tongue, she didn't interfere in his personal matter.

But Elly was different, as long as she deemed the matter to be harmful towards her house, she would take action….

Goddamn!! Her loyalty or debt whatever it was towards her grandfather was surely be a cause of trouble for Max....

Max looked around and found a few people staring at them in curiosity.

He immediately grabbed Elly's hand and looked at Wilson and August, "I will explain it later…."

After that he dragged Elly along and left….

Wilson and August still stood there staring at the two leaving figures.
