Crowned by the Man They Feared (Amelia and Jeremy) novel Chapter 581

Chapter 581 How Can You Say That?

Almost all his stuff had gone straight into that fake girl’s hands.

If Miguel hadn’t reminded him that he had no proof to reclaim the money, Maxwell would’ve already demanded every penny back.

He’d rather give everything to his real sister than let Gianna get a single benefit.

“I’m not acting, Maxwell. Even if things are weird now, I honestly treated you like a brother back then.”

“Oh yeah? If you really think so, then give back every single dollar and every property I gave you right now!

“Only then will I believe you’re sincere!”

Gianna’s eyes went wide. She never expected him to be that shameless.

She’d already spent most of that money. What was she supposed to return?

Even if she had anything left, she had zero plans to give it back.

“Maxwell, how can you say that? I don’t think you really mean it. You’re just mad, right? I get it. I

“Enough nonsense. I mean it. Don’t try to dodge it!”

Before Gianna could finish, Maxwell cut her off impatiently.

He wasn’t the naive guy he used to be. Sweet talk wouldn’t work anymore.

He had learned his lesson the hard way.

See? When she played the victim, her words sounded so innocent.

The moment it came to returning money, the show ended instantly.

Amelia sat nearby, biting into her cake and enjoying the show..

Well, that was fun. It was a perfect example of an instant face-change.

Gianna was left speechless.

There were so many people around, and that damn Amelia was staring at her as well.

If she agreed, she’d lose a fortune. If she refused, she’d look pathetic.

Since when did Maxwell get so sharp and nitpicky?

Did Amelia say something to him or teach him how to handle her?

Otherwise, how could he wake up so thoroughly all of a sudden?

“Hey, Maxwell, don’t be so petty. No need to go that far.”

Miguel appeared, having overheard everything.

“Miguel!” Gianna’s eyes lit up. She thought he was on her side.

It looked like he still went soft when he saw her getting bullied.

“I’m fine, Miguel. I don’t know why Maxwell suddenly became like this, but I-”

“What I mean is,” Miguel interrupted impatiently, “Maxwell, don’t waste your time on this idiot.

“Just think of it as giving charity to a beggar. We can afford it.”

Miguel rarely spoke so harshly. He usually cared about manners.

But Maxwell felt amazing hearing it and chimed in, “You’re right. Might as well say we fed a beast.”

People said being sincere with a beast was pointless. Luckily for him, he only wasted money.

At least what he lost was just his own savings and a few properties, not shares or anything tied to the Nygard Group.

“Pfft! This is too funny!”

Josie, who’d been quiet until now, finally burst out laughing.

“How can someone be this good at acting? Everyone knows you already burned every bridge, yet here you are, full of yourself.

“Who exactly are you trying to impress with all this self-pity?”

Her words made nearby employees snicker as well.

They all remembered how Gianna and Regina had strutted into the Nygard Group that day, trying to take the CEO spot.

That was shocking.

Clearly, they hadn’t embarrassed themselves enough back then, because she was still daydreaming.

“You-how can you say that? That’s not what I meant!”

Gianna had gotten used to the three brothers and Emery spoiling and covering for her.

Now that they were openly excluding her, mocking her one after another, she didn’t even know how to fight back.

“Who cares what you meant? Can you stop standing here and ruining everyone’s view?”
