Chapter 440 Half of the Dahlen Family’s Fortune

“Got it!” The servants immediately stepped forward and heaved Daniel up to bring him to the backyard.“No! Mr. Dahlen! Wait! My dad is bringing more men over! If he comes and replaces out that my leg isbroken, he won’t agree to treat your daughter!” Daniel used his legs to stop himself from being draggedaway as he spoke to Maxwell in a flustered tone.

“Your father? Hah! I’m breaking your leg as compensation for what you’ve done to my daughter. I woulddo the same thing even if your father was here to witness it!” Maxwell knitted his brows in anger. “Whatare you guys still doing here? Bring him out!” he barked.

“No! No!” Daniel thrashed his limbs around, and another two servants ran over to help when the firsttwo servants couldn’t tackle him on their own. It took four of them to keep him under control. Maxwellchanged his orders when he saw how uncooperative Daniel was. “You guys can break his leg here!”

“Alright!” One of the servants already had a bat in his hand, and he stepped forward before raising theheavy bat up into the air. He was just about to swing the bat when one of the maids hurried into theroom. “Elise has brought her people over, Mr. Dahlen!”

Maxwell gritted his teeth as he waved an arm to signal his servants to step back. “You guys can leavehim for now,” he ordered as he returned to his seat on the couch. “Bring them in,” he told the maid.

Daniel heaved a sigh of relief—he had been so close to losing a leg. He immediately scrambled to hisfeet before tidying his hair and shirt. Then, he stood in a corner with his gaze cast downward. Soonenough, Elise and Claude walked into the room. When Elise heard the noise coming from upstairs, shecould vaguely estimate Maya’s condition based on the intensity of her cries.

“Are you the one who did this to my daughter?” Maxwell’s face darkened as he questioned Elise in ablaming tone. Elise didn’t respond to him and simply shot a glance at Claude. Claude nodded before he

walked over with a cocky expression on his face. “Watch your words. Your busybody daughter wouldn’thave ended up in this situation if she hadn’t overstepped her boundaries and messed with Elise.”

“Who are you to say that about my daughter?!” Maxwell narrowed his eyes as he glared at Claude, withthe aura and power of the head of a family. “I’d recommend you not to mess around here. After seeingwhat the perpetrator did to my daughter, I’ve already decided that I’ll make that person pay for theiractions! Although the Dahlen Family doesn’t have the power of Gods, we aren’t easy targets!”

When Maxwell realized Maya’s cries were starting to get louder, he felt increasingly frustrated. CouldElise be the only person who can save my daughter? At that thought, Maxwell dropped the harshattitude that he had just moments ago. “Miss Sinclair, I’ll give you anything you want, as long as youpromise to let my daughter and I go!”

“Why did you have to offer me anything? I came over because I wanted to save your daughter,” Elisemuttered as she crossed her arms in front of her chest.

Maxwell froze for a moment before he realized that he had made a terrible mistake. “I’m sorry, MissSinclair. I was being foolish! I hope a kind soul like you will be able to forgive my shortcomings! Pleasecure my daughter of her suffering—I promise I’ll always be thankful to you!” he cried.

“I don’t need you to be thankful. I’m here to save a life—my intentions wouldn’t be pure if I were doing itto win your gratitude, right?” Elise asked.

Maxwell let out a long sigh. He had been about to thank Elise when he heard her speak once more.“Unfortunately, I’m not as kind of a person as I would like to be. For the sake of Alexander, I initiallyplanned on asking for a tiny reward in return for my services. But now… I’ve changed my mind. I wanthalf of the Dahlen Family’s fortune!”

“Half of our fortune?!” Maxwell knitted his brows together. If their family lost half of their fortune, theywould lose half of the power they had. If that happened, they would be humiliated and bullied by the

rest of the families in Tissote.

“What is it? Are you not willing to give me the money?” Elise raised an eyebrow as she gave him acunning smirk.

“No! No! Of course I’m willing to give it to you! Of course! As long as you cure my daughter, I promiseto give you half of my fortune!” Maxwell cried. “Show her to the room!” he ordered his maid.

“Follow me, Miss Sinclair!” the maid uttered. The few of them were prepared to head to Maya’s roomwhen Elise voiced up. “I want everyone in the room to get out and wait outside.” Elise didn’t speak in anextremely stern tone, but her voice had an impact on others—it made everyone gasp in fear.

The room was cleared out in a matter of seconds. Elise stepped into the room and shut the door behindher. A few seconds later, Maya stopped screaming in pain. About two minutes later, Elise walked out ofthe room.

“T-That’s it? She’s cured?” Maxwell asked weakly.
