"Doctor Ye, what's wrong? Aren't you satisfied with this place?"
At this time, Maximilian came in.
Wisdom was a little dissatisfied with his uninvited behavior. His deep eyes narrowed, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he turned around, leaned against the balcony, and made a casual gesture with his hands clasped behind his back.
Zion, who was hiding in the dark, was slightly stunned.
This was his and Wisdom's usual gesture, so Wisdom asked him to calm down.
Wisdom knew that he was here?
Zion's lips curled up slightly.
It was a pity that Wisdom didn't join the army.
He told everyone not to move and the surrounding became silent for a while.
Wisdom didn't know if Zion saw his gesture.
He looked at Maximilian and said coldly, "Mr. Bay, don't you know that you have to knock on the door when you enter?"
Whether he faced Maximilian or Acoff, his words were never tactful.
Although Maximilian was mentally prepared, his face was still a little pale because of Wisdom. In order to cover up his embarrassment, he coughed and said, "Doctor Ye, I came for my son today."
"As I said before, I can save him but you have to agree to my condition first. I can save your son, and you have to let go of my family, including my brother and my future sister-in-law. There is no room for negotiation."
Wisdom's words were very firm.
Maximilian was a little embarrassed.
"It's not that I don't agree, but you should also know that my words here have no effect at all. Unless Acoff gives me some power, otherwise, I can't even compare with a bodyguard here, right?"
His words were a little bitter.
Wisdom looked at him. He didn't know if he was sincere or trying to sound him out. He kept silent and looked out of the window.
The weather today was cloudless and sunny, which made people feel much better.
Seeing that Wisdom stopped talking, Maximilian bit his lower lip and said, "Doctor Ye, as long as you can save my son, I can promise you three things. I promise you I'll do anything."
Wisdom was stunned by his words.
He was a doctor and had seen life and death. He knew that not all parents in the world would love their children.
Logically speaking, the existence of the child directly blocked the attention of Acoff towards Maximilian. In terms of human selfishness, the death of the child might be an opportunity for Maximilian. After all, he was now the only son of Acoff.
So Wisdom was slightly stunned and asked, "Why?"
