Maxton was taken aback when Charlie outright refused to give her a chance, and it left her feeling immediately irritated.


    In her life, rejection was a rare urrence for Maxton, particrly since she was raised in a wealthy family. In Taizhen Dao, people typically walked on eggshells around her; even the dog owned by Taizhen Dao wouldn’t dare to bark at Hong Changqing, let alone challenge Maxton.


    Yet, despite being treated like a prized jewel, she found herself consistently hitting a wall with Charlie, a situation she found utterly uneptable.


    Determined to address the issue, she confronted Charlie, asking, “Mr. Wade, why are you willing to sell that medicine cauldron?”


    Charlie, noticing that although she was two years older, Maxton seemed tock any social experience, decided it was time to teach her a lesson.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    With a yful smirk, Charlie deliberately scanned her from head to toe and replied, “A stunning woman like Maxton? How could I possibly ask for your money? Since you have an interest in that medicine cauldron, just take it! I don’t need a cent, as long as Maxton remembers that she owes me a favor.”


    Seeing the teasing glint in Charlie’s eyes, Maxton quickly deduced that he was intentionally provoking her. Her demeanor shifted to one of coldness as she retorted, “I appreciate your generosity, Mr. Wade, but I never owe anyone a favor! You should make a proper offer!” Charlie had anticipated her response.


    Feigning a pout, he replied, “Oh, Maxton, don’t you think that’s a bit too much?”


    With pride, Maxton dered, “I, Maxton, always speak my mind and never make empty boasts!”


    Charlie chuckled softly and remarked, “Whether you’re boasting or not, I guess I’ll find out when I give it a try.”


    Perplexed, Maxton asked, “What do you mean by that?”<fn774e> Find the newest release on FιndＮovel</fn774e>


    Charlie, still smiling, suggested, “Ms. Long, why not extend your hand and let me demonstrate some palmistry?”


    “Deng Tu Son!” Maxton snapped, her voice sharp. “I didn’t expect you to possess such a twisted mind along with your smooth tongue!”


    Charlie replied with a smile, “Maxton, you’ve misunderstood! I didn’t mean to take advantage of you; I simply wanted to see if your im about never owing favors was genuine or just bravado!”


    With a cold snort, Maxton gritted her teeth and asserted, “I am Maxton! I never brag, not even once!”


    Charlie nodded, “Then go ahead, Maxton, stretch out your hand, and you’ll see the oue in just a moment.”


    Angrily, Maxton extended her hand in front of Charlie, stating coolly, “I’m curious to see what kind of game you’re ying!”
