When She Stops Playing Nice
Chapter 359
Lisa paused to listen to what Gina was going to say next.
Gina immediately declared, âMr. Atkinson, I can agree to let Chuck off the hook for once.â
Willie looked at Lisa after he saw Gina was willing to relent. Lisa immediately nodded. âMiss Millerâs opinion represents mine.â
Chuck heaved a sigh of relief. He did not dare to be too smug. He only looked at Max provocatively and said reluctantly. âPrincess Lisa, Iâll hand Ben over to you immediately. Iâll do my best to cooperate with the subsequent investigation. Iâm also willing to compensate the victims who bought the illegal medicines.â
In Lisaâs opinion, Chuckâs attitude of admitting his mistake was good. She was more satisfied with the outcome of the matter. She nodded and said, âI hope you can recognize your mistake and repent and correct it from now on.â
âI will.â Chuck lied through his teeth.
Then Chuck made a phone call and called Ben directly from his villa to the manor. When Ben saw Gina, he was not afraid at
all.
However, Ben quickly recognized Princess Lisa beside Gina. He was instantly terrified.
At that moment, Chuck said, âPrincess Lisa, the mastermind behind selling the illegal medicines is here. You can take him
away.â
Ben instantly reacted when he heard that. Chuck had called him over to hand him over to Gina.
âMr. Chuck, what does this mean? Iâm the mastermind?â
Chuck could not be bothered to waste his breath on Ben,
Ben was horrified. He still wanted to struggle. He crawled to Chuck and knelt to beg him, âMr. Chuck, you canât treat me like this. Iâve worked for you for ten years. Iâve worked hard even if I didnât contribute!â
Chuck kicked Ben away impatiently. âEnough. Iâve never mistreated you in the past ten years. Get lost.â
When Ben saw Chuck was unreliable, he cursed, âBustard. Asshole. Heartless thing. Youâll die horribly!â
Lisa quickly called someone in, took Ben under control, and waited outside. She then stood up and bade farewell. âThank you for your cooperation, Mr. Atkinson. Sorry to bother you. Gina. Letâs go.â
Gina nodded and left with Lisa.
Chuck stared at Cinaâs back with his hands clenched. Although he had avoided jail time, the followâup compensation would hurt him badly. He was not done with Gina!
âOf courseâ¦
Chuckâs gaze fell on Max. He would not let go of Max, the traitor, either. Therefore, Chuck started to attack Max again the minute Lisa and the others left.
Of course, Max was not to be outdone and fought with Chuck.
Chuck pressed Max to the ground. âYou bastard. Did you help Gina steal the account book?â
Max mocked Chuck. âYouâve done those outrageous things, and youâll have to pay the price sooner or later. You should thank me for giving you a chance to repent!â
Chuck ground his teeth. âWhat right do you have to judge me? You bastard!
He threw a punch at Max but failed. Max lifted his knee to Chuckâs abdomen. Chuck was in pain and was at a disadvantage, so he was pressed to the ground by Max.
Chapter 359
Max punched Chuck several times in a row.
Suddenly, someone grabbed Maxâs hand. Max looked up and saw Willie.
âDad⦠Maxx was stunned,
Willie hauled Max to his feet and slapped him. Max froze in place. Chuck saw his father was helping him and was pleased with himself. He wanted to hit Max back, but Willic pushed him away. Chuck was puzzled. âDad?â
âHavenât you fought enough?â Willie scolded.
Chuck realized his father was angry, so he did not continue to hit Max.
Willie asked Max, âAm I not good to you?â
Maxâs pupils constricted. âYes.â
âThen why did you help an outsider to betray our family?â
Max frowned. âBut Max did something wrong, didnât he?â
âYes. But itâs not your turn to judge him. You have disappointed me, Max. A family should be united. So, youâve never treated us as a family, have you?â
Faith stepped forward and grabbed Willieâs arm. Iâm sorry, Honey. Max knows his mistake. Donât be mad. Max is not an ungrateful child. He treats us as a family.â
Willie closed his eyes. He did not want to hear anyone pleading for Max. He asked, âWhat did you help Gina and Princess Lisa with? Tell me the truth.â
Max said bluntly. âI only said that Max might have put the account book somewhere. I didnât do anything else.â
Gina did not let him a
im get too involved in the matter.
However, Willie didnât trust Max, and Kennen didnât trust Max even more. âYouâre talking nonsense. Youâre just trying to get away with it
Max gave Chuck a bad look. âBelieve it or not.â
Then Max turned to Willie and said, âDad, Iâm telling the truth. However, I⦠I did betray our family, according to you. I donât think I was wrong
Willie took a deep breath and covered his heart. Max held him in time. After a long time, Willie told Max, âGet lost. I donât want to see you now.â
âOkayâ¦â Max nodded and turned to leave.
On the other side.
Before Ben was put into a police car for temporary detention in Mosnioca, Gina had a critical matter to ask Ben.
âWhere did the ashes in those medicines come from? Tell me the truth.â
Although Ben knew he was doomed, he did not want Gina to have her way. Hence, he said stubbornly, âI donât want to tell you.
I donât want to talk now or later. The law will judge me. Itâs not your turn.â
Then, Ben sneered as if he was a little smug.
He saw Cina seemed to care about the ashes, so he insisted on not saying anything
It made Cina anxious
It was also the last futile and ridiculous resistance he could do, but he was happy to do so.

Gina was running out of patience with Ben. âIf you donât want to talk, I can shut you up forever.â
Ben panicked. âWhat do you mean? Are you threatening me? Didnât you want the law to punish me? Why? Will you go above and beyond the law to deal with me? Are you going to kill me directly? What right do you have? Stop trying to scare me!â
because
Lisa played along. âMr. Presley, no one wants to break the law and kill you. However, what if you suddenly come to your senses.
you know youâve committed a heinous crime and think youâve done many evil deeds and canât redeem your sins? What if you choose to give up your life? It is possible, isnât it?â
Ben immediately broke out in a cold sweat when he heard Lisa, the royal princess, talk like that.
