Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

Chapter 1072 A Business Deal

Abel’s mocking comment made Maxine blush. She was used to being pampered, and other than Luke, no other

man had ever treated her like that before.

That made her even angrier.

"Looks like you've been seduced by Bianca too," Maxine said coldly.

"Alright, that's enough. Aren't we on the same side? We shouldn't be quibbling." Hera stepped up to be the

mediator when she saw that the atmosphere was becoming tense. It would be bad if Maxine made Abel angry

before the deed was done.

Maxine grunted coldly, sat on the couch, and turned her head away.

Abel lit up a cigar and dragged from it. "You don't have to worry about Bianca. Now that she's with me, she'll be

begging for me to kill her." "That better be the case." Maxine paused for a while and added, ’ Not only that, but I

want her to give up entirely on Luke." "I think so too." Abel laughed brazenly as he leaned on the couch. The main

objective of his visit was to ask Maxine for a favor.

"Help me get some photos," he said.

"What photos?" Maxine finally turned to look at him.

Abel grinned. "Photos of Luke with other women."

He wanted Bianca's love for Luke to die entirely, then be reborn from the ashes. If she had nothing but hatred for

Luke, she would lose all hope of reuniting with him. Desperate women like that would be easily manipulated.

Maxine chuckled coldly. "You might as well find someone to edit those photos for you. Why did you have to come all

the way here?" "That won't be convincing. This is the latest drug. If Luke takes it, he'll fall unconscious and be under

your control." Abel took out a small vial from his pocket.

Maxine's eyes sparkled when she saw that.

Abel knew what she was thinking, so he reminded her, "He'll be unconscious, but he won't do anything else.”

Maxine was not embarrassed that Abel guessed her thoughts. She asked," Do you have any other drugs?" "Yes, but

the side effects are serious. If you don't give Luke the correct dose, he might be impotent for the rest of his life."

Abel took out a blue vial and flashed a sinister grin. Do you want this? If Luke is impotent, he won't have any other

women." "No." Maxine refused instantly and rolled her eyes at him. She wanted to be physically intimate with Luke,

but she would not want to permanently harm him.

Abel did not try to convince her. He stashed away the vial and took out a name card. "Once you get the photos, you

can send them to my email." "Sure." Maxine narrowed her gaze as she looked at the white vial. With the drug, she

could definitely take some nice photos.

She could not help but be happy when she realized that she was involved in Bianca's torment.

After that, Abel talked about the next topic. "Ms. Douglas, I have some business for you. I wonder if you'd be

interested." "What business?" Maxine replied carelessly, her attention fully focused on the vial.

"These two drugs," Abel said while taking out the blue vial once more." These are the newest products from our lab.

They'll bring huge profits if you manage to market them?"

Abel needed funds to redevelop the Island of Despair, so he asked Shanks to invent the drugs.

"Didn't you say that it'll cause permanent damage?" Maxine frowned. She had no intention of investing in it.

"As risky as it might be, there'll always be a market for it. You don't have to worry about that," Abel said. Lust was a

major driver of human behavior.

He knew that people would buy the drug to satisfy their personal desires.

"I can't market this in the country. What kind of collaboration are you looking for?" Maxine became serious. She

finally understood Abel's true purpose in meeting her.

"My lab has many other drugs that can cure various diseases, and they're much more effective than what you can

find in the market now. As long as I receive funding, I can apply for patents, and there'll be plenty of chances for us

to collaborate," Abel said. There was money to be made in both channels.

He could not market certain drugs openly, so he had to look for Maxine.

She was the perfect partner because both of them had dirt on each other.

Maxine sank into deep thought. Investing in a pharmaceutical startup required a lot of money, and she could not

make that decision.

"Can you give me a few days to think about it?" She said.

"I can only give you one day. If you don't give me an answer, I'll just have to look for another partner." Abel did not

give her too much time to consider." I'm very confident in my researcher, Ms. Douglas. I can say that any drug on

the market now isn't as effective as what he's making." "Alright." Maxine saw that he was in a hurry to look for a

partner. "Is there anything else?" "That's all." Abel could tell that she was hinting at him to leave. He hugged Hera

and stood up. "You can contact me with your decision before this time tomorrow." "Mm." Maxine planned to discuss

it with her parents. To Capital Corp, the amount that Abel asked for was not a lot. However, it was a lot of money for

her.

Abel brought Hera to the door. "Beautiful lady, how about we rent a room here?" "Sounds good. I'll be able to

accompany you for the next few days." Hera was very excited. With him around, she would be able to enjoy the

services of the six-star hotel for the next few days.

"Good. I like it when you are proactive." Abel hugged her waist. Before he left the room, he turned and spoke to the

woman behind him. "Luke Crawford might like women with pure looks, but he is more fond of women who are self-

reliant. Think about it, Ms. Douglas. Luke's attitude toward you might change if he finds out that you're not relying

on your family's wealth."

Maxine looked at the couple contemptuously.

'Hera is really daring. Isn’t she afraid that she'll die in the hands of that man?'

After they left, Maxine kept the vials and took out her phone. She prepared to call her parents to discuss funding

Abel's venture.

If something bad happened to the company in the future, they would only be losing money.

They were not responsible for the company's operations, so they would not be implicated.

If the company was a success, she would be swimming in riches. After all, hospitals were the most profitable

ventures. So many people in the world fell sick every day, and everyone needed medicine to survive.

That made her even more determined to invest in Abel's venture. She dialed her father's phone number.

After leaving Maxine's room, Hera took Abel's money to book a presidential suite.

She came back up with the access cards and a smile on her face. Then, she held Abel's hand and waved the access

cards. "We'll be staying next door."
