My Love Until the Last Goodbye by Alut

Chapter 0315

After a long drive to pick up both of his daughters, Maximus arrived at Palmer Group. When he pulled up, the valet opened his car door. Normally, these routine actions went unnoticed, but today, Maximus took in every detail. He knew that by returning everything, it would soon be clear who would assume control of the company.

“Come on, Dad! Let’s go–it’s time!” Laura said, tugging on his arm.

Laura wanted to walk into the massive building arm–in–arm with her father. For Maximus, it was the first time: he had seen his daughter grinning from ear to ear as they arrived. Normally, she attended these monthly visits quietly and out of obligation, but today she was genuinely happy.

Serenity walked beside them, and Maximus couldn’t have been prouder of the two beautiful young women by his side. The receptionist, however, was stunned. She recognized Laura as his daughter but had never seen the dark- haired girl before. Maximus’s affectionate demeanor toward her sparked rumors in her mind. “This will get juicy when Mrs. Palmer finds out,‘ she thought.

Maximus and his daughters entered the elevator reserved for the CEO. The hallway was eerily empty, likely because everyone was already waiting in the boardroom. For the first time, Maximus was 15 minutes late to a shareholders‘ meeting. Taking a deep breath, he exhaled slowly.

“Alright, girls. Let’s go–they’re waiting for us,” he said calmly.

When Maximus opened the boardroom door, all the Palmers were present, including Alexia, who hadn’t been invited. Upon hearing about the meeting, she had decided to show up anyway, assuming her invitation had been misplaced. Arriving early, she had seated herself next to her “supposed husband.”

Valerie and Marcus saw Serenity walk in alongside Maximus. Already irritated, Marcus scowled and clenched his fists. ‘What the hell is my daughter doing next to that bastard?” he thought. The two men locked eyes across the table, each seated at opposite ends. Their wives sat beside them. Maximus turned to Alexia with a cold expression and said:

“Alexia, this is a shareholders‘ meeting, and as far as I know, you don’t own any shares in the company. Why are you here? The company doesn’t pay you an exorbitant sum to waste time.”

Alexia, seeing him holding Laura’s hand, pursed her lips and replied:

“Maximus, this company is as much mine as it is yours. My children are part of it. I may not be a direct shareholder, but I look after their interests. Is that a problem?” she said with a tone full of arrogance and confidence.

“Well then, you have two choices: either I reschedule the meeting elsewhere, or I call security to escort you out,” Maximus said, glaring at her.
