Chapter 553

“Don’t bother.”

“What if there was an emergency!”

Briana reached out to grab the phone from the bedside table and handed it to him, her voice hoarse from emotion.

“There was no rush for these few minutes.”

Maxim took the phone, his eyes filled with deep, dark desire.

“I would let you know later if I was really in a hurry for these few minutes.”

He got out of bed to answer the call. Whatever was said on the other end, his face suddenly turned incredibly ugly.

After hanging up the phone, he turned to Briana, “Briana, there’s been an unexpected emergency at the company, I need to go handle it. Wait for me to come back!”

Briana slowly sat up, holding the blanket and looking at him, “Okay.”

Seeing her like this, Maxim stepped forward, grabbed the back of her head and kissed her hard before he dressed and left.

Maxim had been gone all night, only returning when Briana came downstairs the next morning. His eyes were dark and hollow, clearly showing he hadn’t slept a wink.

Seeing his distressed look, Briana couldn’t help but ask, “Is the situation very serious?”

Maxim shook his head, “It’s okay, it’s already been taken care of.”

“Um, that’s good. Did you stay up all night yesterday? You should go rest now.”

“Alright, call me if you need anything.”

“Mm-hmm.”

It was Sunday today, and the aunt did not come to cook.

After Maxim returned to his bedroom, Briana pondered for a while and decided to make seafood porridge for lunch and stir-fry a few small dishes.

He hadn’t slept all night, so having some porridge at noon was the most suitable.

At noon, just as Briana had finished cooking porridge and was about to wake Maxim up for a meal, he hurriedly came down from upstairs.

“Briana, I had to go to the office, so don’t wait for me for lunch.”

Having finished speaking, Maxim left quickly without even waiting for Briana’s response.

Briana glanced down at the porridge in the pot and immediately lost. her appetite.

After leaving Emerald Villa, Maxim drove directly to the Yoder Group.

Rayan had already been waiting for him in the office and handed over the documents in his hand as soon as he saw Maxim.

“Mr. Yoder, according to the information we found, it’s highly likely that the people from Cold Night are connected to the Bynes family in

Haseton.”

Maxim took the document, his expression turning incredibly cold after reading it.

“Continue the investigation, do not act rashly.”

The Bynes family was one of the eight great families in Haseton, and was the strongest among them. They were not much different from the worst of the four prestigious families, the Holland family.

Moreover, the Bynes family had deep historical roots in Haseton, it wasn’t that easy to mess with the Bynes family.

However, since they dared to covet the Yoder family’s key, they had to be prepared for the backlash.

After giving that order, Maxim asked, “By the way, have the

champagne roses I asked you to air freight not been shipped back yet?”

The situation at the Yoder Group had already stabilized, and he was planning to replace time to propose to Briana.

Rayan hastily said, “Not long ago, there was a heavy rain in Bulgaria, which caused a lot of damage to the Champagne roses. I guess it will take a few days to transport them back.”

Maxim nodded, “Alright, as soon as possible. How about the diamond ring that was ordered before?”

“It would arrive in a few days, and I would put it on your desk then.”

“Alright, go on to work.”

After Rayan left, Maxim picked up the document again, his face extremely gloomy.

When Briana received a call from Annabelle, she was in the process of ladling porridge from the pot to store it in the refrigerator.

“Briana, what were you doing? I wanted to see that patient’s medical report, were you free to go to the hospital with me?”
