Novel Name : The Heir

The Heir chapter 23


MAXIMILIAN went to a jewelry store in town after dropping his wife at the office. He decided to buy her
a necklace as a gift for their wedding anniversary. And because he wanted to give her the best, he
chose the most expensive brand in town.

He went inside the store and looked for a design. All of them look pretty, but there was this particular
necklace that stands out. It was a gold one with a crescent moon pendant with a diamond that sits on
the moon, representing a star. Maximilian was sure that his wife would look gorgeous on that.

“Hey, you!” He turned in the direction of the voice. “Do not lean on the glass and take your hands off it,”
said the sales assistant who approached him.

“Whoa, easy!” He put his hands up and made a few steps backward.

The sales assistant gave her a once-over and sneered. “You should leave.”

Maximilian’s lip twitched. There go the judging looks of everyone inside the jewelry store and the
humiliation from the sales assistant. It seemed like it will always be a part of his life.

“Oh, I am here to buy a necklace—”

“Our necklaces here cost millions of dollars. I bet…” The sales assistant looked at him again from head
to toe. “You cannot afford a twenty-million-dollar necklace.”

He heard whispers, which he doubted so because it seemed like the onlookers intentionally made it
loud so he could hear them.

“Guard! Take him out! Now!” said the sales assistant, who immediately turned her back.

The security guards appeared and grabbed him by the arm. They drove Maximilian out of the jewelry
store as if he were someone else’s abandoned pet, making him angry. But despite the harsh treatment,



he will not give up on that necklace. He still wanted it for Victoria. So, he fished his phone and called
the butler.

“Wilfred.”

“Yes, Young Master? Is there anything I can help you with?” the butler asked in a polite tone.

“I need twenty million dollars in cash, now.” He turned in the jewelry store’s direction. Now, it was his
time to get even with that sales assistant. “Wilfred, are you still there?” Maximilian asked when he did
not hear any response from the butler.

“Yes, Young Master, I am still here.”

“Can you bring it to me now, Wilfred?”

“Of course, I can. But first, I need to know what you are up to, Young Master. Twenty million dollars is
quite a—”

“I am buying a present for my wife for our wedding anniversary. I am about to pay it in check, but this
sales assistant humiliated me in front of others, telling me that I couldn’t afford a twenty-million-dollar
necklace!” Maximilian let out an exasperated sigh.

“I see. I am coming then,” said Wilfred.

“Great! I will send you the address.”

Maximilian waited on his car parked just across the jewelry store. He waited for almost an hour before
Wilfred arrived. When he saw him got off the car with an attaché case, he immediately went out of his
car.

“What took you so long?” he asked, a little irritated.



“My apologies, Young Master. I just bagged you twenty million dollars from the vault, and it wasn’t that
easy,” the butler explained.

“Whatever.” Maximilian grasped the butler’s arm and tugged him inside the jewelry store.

Everyone looked at them.

“What are you doing…” the sales assistant’s voice trailed off when his butler put the attaché case down
on the counter and opened it.

“My young master here wants to buy a necklace. Here is his payment worth twenty million dollars. You
can check it by yourself,” Wilfred told the sales assistant with confidence. He was really fit for his job.

Maximilian’s lip twitched when he saw the sales assistant’s face turned pale. And when his eyes
wandered, he saw everyone in awe.

“I…” the sales assistant swallowed hard and turned in Maximilian’s direction afterward.

“What did you say a while ago?” He pocketed his hands and flashed a smug smile on his face. “Come
on, say it again.”

The sales assistant shifted her gaze back and forth to him and the butler. She was teary-eyed at that
moment and was about to cry any minute.

“I… I am sorry,” the sales assistant said in a hoarse voice.

“Your apology is too late. You already humiliated me,” Maximilian said in a cold
tone.
