The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1820

The atmosphere suddenly became colder.

"Doctor Ye, don't force me!"

Acoff was pissed off by Wisdom.

No one had dared to speak to him like this for so many years. If he didn't need Wisdom to operate on his grandson, he would have killed Wisdom immediately!

Wisdom was well aware of Acoffs current mood, yet he still added fuel to the fire and said, "I dare you to harm my mentor! You're Acoff Hooper, right? Do you have any idea who's territory you're in? Let me tell you now, it would be a piece of cake for the Ye family to destroy you. I didn't involve my family in this because I didn't want to aggravate the situation. All I want is for my teacher and my family to be safe, but it doesn't mean I'm scared of you. Now that you've decided to seek my assistance, you should act like someone's who begging for help instead."

"What do you want me to do?"

Acoff tried his best to suppress his anger.

Suddenly, a man came in and was stunned when he saw Wisdom.

"Zion Ye?"

Zion was surprised when he saw the person that had appeared on the screen.

Maximilian Bay?

Why was he here?

What was going on?

He held his breath and listened. Then he heard Wisdom say coldly, "If you are blind, you can go to see a doctor. In fact, I can introduce you to a doctor."

Hearing Wisdom's words, Maximilian suddenly came to his senses.

Of course, he knew that Wisdom and Zion looked alike, but never expected them to look so identical. If it weren't for their different auras, he probably couldn't have told them apart.

Meanwhile, Acoff was enraged upon seeing

Maximilian's arrival.

"You useless thing! Get lost."

"Yes."

Although Maximilian used to be a show off in front of outsiders, he was cautious around Acoff.

All of a sudden, Zion's mind went blank. He quickly took a screenshot of Acoff's image and sent it to Benjamin.

"Check out this person's information for me."

Benjamin was still concerned about Sissaye's poisoning. Everyone at the military hospital was in a frenzy when they learned that Evangeline's kidney had been stolen. Furthermore, the military patrol crew had even walked around in groups. He was troubled by everything that was happening.

He was taken aback when he suddenly got Zion's text message.

Seeing that he was in a daze, Sissaye could not help but ask, "What's wrong? Who sent you this message?"

"Zion asked me to investigate a person."

Benjamin quickly turned on his computer.

After Zion sent the text message, he realised that Wisdom hadn't even taken his cell phone.

So did Wisdom do all this to protect him?

No!

He had seen a lot of ups and downs throughout his time as an officer. What made Wisdom think that Zion needed his help?

In conclusion, it was clear that Wisdom was trying to protect him. In fact, Wisdom wanted Zion to spread out this information, right?

Did Wisdom use himself as bait and put his live at risk merely to offer Zion some useful information?

How did Wisdom know that he was investigating Maximilian Bay?

Even a haughty person would have their own Achilles' heel. Hence, he could control Wisdom easily once he knew about the latter's weakness

Wisdom was taken to the room next door.

Maximilian expressed his concern by saying, "Mr. Hooper, Wisdom is cunning, so I don't think that he will compromise easily. We should be more careful."

"Do I need you to remind me about this? I'm not stupid, alright? Have you found Zion?"

Acoff looked at Maximilian with disgust. However, Maximilian was the only child left in the family.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have allowed Maximilian to work for him if it wasn't for this relationship. As a result, he had always requested for Maximilian to address him respectfully. In fact, he refused to acknowledge the relationship between them.

Maximilian naturally knew that. Therefore, he was somewhat heartbroken when Wisdom called him an 'illegitimate son'.

Even an outsider, let alone himself, could tell what Acoff too thought of him. However, he still suppressed his rage when he thought of his son. After all, his son was still lying in bed, and he needed to undergo a kidney operation.

In any case, he was very gratified that Acoff didn't acknowledge him, but his son.

Yes, this child was born by him and Ivy Woolner.

He had no idea he was Acoff's son when the latter had adopted him. Acoff had forced him to find a woman to give birth to a child, and his first candidate was Ivy.

Acoff was too old, so he had failed to get Ivy pregnant after multiple tries. Therefore, he requested Maximilian to replace him. He felt strange at first, but Ivy had gotten pregnant and given birth to the child. However, Maximilian finally had other thoughts when he saw how Acoff valued the child.

When no one was watching, he took the child's and Acoff's hair for a DNA test, and he finally learnt about his origins. However, when he inquired Acoff about this issue, he was constantly met with mockery and contempt.

Acoff was furious now, and he was

questioning Maximilian just like how he treated his subordinates. However, Maximilian still answered truthfully even

though he was displeased. Suddenly, they

heard a scream coming from the child's room, and they dashed over immediately!
