Chapter 106 I Don’t Want Trouble
The car crawled on the road. A short silence later, Max said, “I assume you already knew that Steven
Dickman had something to do with your abduction.”
“Yes.” She nodded and gave him a confused look. He chuckled wryly and asked nonchalantly, “Are you
going to let this slip?”
She raised a brow questioningly and waited for him to speak again.
“The Dickmans are very influential in Parrington. Gilbert’s power alone isn’t enough to get rid of them,”
he explained.
“So?” She smiled as though she could anticipate his next words, but he wasn’t bothered by it. He
offered, I can help.”
She chuckled and stared at him before quickly looking away. “Helping me? Haven’t you been eyeing
them, waiting to acquire them just to expand your influence?”
After all, the fight for clients and resources was a zero-sum game for the families. Jenny found it easy
to read his mind.
“You could say so.” Max didn’t deny her assumption. Indeed, he wanted to acquire Dickman LLC to
strengthen his influence for the time when he needed to face off against Alec. However, he couldn’t
make a move on the Dickmans if Jenny was against it.
She did not give him an immediate answer. “I need time to think about it.”
“That’s fine. There’s no rush,” he said with a smile and didn’t seem worried she might be against his
idea. If she wanted revenge against the Dickmans without wasting time, she would naturally agree to
work with him.
Their conversation ended there. Soon, the car came to a stop at the entrance of the hotel. There were
only bodyguards at the entrance whose task was to check the identity of the guests. Reporters were
nowhere to be seen because this was a private event.
When Jenny and Max showed up at the event hall, they instantly became the center of attraction. Most
people at the event knew Max, but only a few who attended the previous charity dinner recognized
Jenny. The few people who knew her were surprised to find the last mentee of Mr. Birkett with Max,
and the two seemed close. Everyone started guessing if she was Max’s new girlfriend.
Alec stared at the two as he fought to suppress his rage as the host. He walked up and said to Jenny,
Grandpa’s happy you could make it. He’s in the waiting room. I’ll bring you there.” He completely
ignored. Max, who was standing beside her.
“Mr. Faust, Jenny’s my plus one. It isn’t too nice of you to take her away from me, is it?” Max laughed at
a volume that attracted stares. Alec held back his anger and smiled. “Mr. Pearson, you’re reading too
much into it. I’m doing this as a host.”
Max snickered in silence, his eyes full of distrust. Jenny ignored their quiet competition and replied, “It’s
fine. I’ll stay here. The dinner should be starting soon.”
Alec did not force her. He nodded and turned around to leave. “Make yourself at home. Ask for me if
you need anything.”
“Oh, Mr. Faust,” Max interjected. “Don’t you worry. She’ll ask for me if she needs anything. She won’t
trouble you tonight.”
Alec merely gave Max a frosty look while silently contemplating throwing him out. He thought, “What an
annoying presence.”
After Alec left, Jenny shifted her gaze to Max. “I’m here for his grandpa’s birthday, and I genuinely wish
the old gentleman well. I don’t want trouble. Got it?”
Zachary Faust was good to her, and the last thing she wanted was to taint his birthday event.
Meanwhile, Max was a ticking time bomb that would go off at any time.
