Dragon Master novel Maximilian -
Chapter 653 The Gold-plated Bodhisattva
In Myles' mind, Regan Saunders was definitely the best among the best car racer, who could never be defeated domestically. But hearing that Regan was defeated, he felt his world collapsed. "Who's your master? How come he defeated Regan?"
"My master is Maximilian Lee. You will find it out when you get to know my master's racing skills, which are beyond your imagination. Even the car racing king of the FIA Formula 1 World Championship is unlikely to compete with my master."
"Who?" Myles looked at Canaan in astonishment because he was so stunned to hear the name "Maximilian Lee".
"Is it him the same Maximilian Lee? The Maximilian Lee I just saw is the husband of President of Topyuan Group. What a coincidence that Canaan is now building a racing club right across Topyuan Group!" Myles thought to himself.
"Maximilian Lee? The husband of President of Topyuan Group?" Myles continued in surprise.
"So you knew my master! That's my master Maximilian Lee," said Canaan with a smirk.
Myles felt like flying off the handle. He was totally miserable. "What the hell is all this about? Maximilian turns out to be Canaan's master. How am I supposed to ask Canaan to help me get my car back?" thought Myles.
Seeing Myles' troubled look, Canaan was puzzled, "What's wrong with you? You don't look right. Are you terrified by my master's name?"
"Is your master really that good? You are kidding me, aren't you?"
"Why would I be kidding you? Believe it or not! You can ask around. People in this field all know him. Many of them have seen it on the spot."
Words failed Myles completely. After a while, he felt he couldn't just let it go and said, "Tell me what else your master has got. I heard your master is a loser who lives on his wife."
"That's just hearsay! My master keeps a low-profile at usual and only shows his real power at critical moments. Do you know the International Underground Boxing Tournament? My master is the champion this year. You can check it yourself. As for Topyuan Group, it is in fact a gift from my master to his wife. Who else do you know is able to give such an amazing gift?" Canaan droned on and on, which made Myles dazed.
Myles took out his mobile phone to search the news about Underground Boxing players immediately. After a while, he felt a chill down his spine when he found that the champion was indeed Maximilian Lee. He knew he was totally screwed up by Keegan.
After staring at his phone with a long face for a while, he said, "Canaan, I need to ask you for a favor."
"I know it! You must come to me for something. Spit it out. I will spare no effort if I can help."
Having calmed down and organized his words, Myles said, "I, uh, I have offended your master. Instigated by the damned Keegan, I had a bet with your master and lost my sports car which I've just bought to your master."
Canaan looked strange and tried not to laugh out, "Don't tell me you wanna get back your sports car. It's not gonna work."
"I'm not getting it back for free. I can trade for it. I can trade for it with money or other sports car," said Myles with exclamation.
Canaan shook his head and said, "That's not gonna work either. You have lost it to my master. Then it belongs to my master now. Just consider it as a gift to my master."
"Well, wouldn't it be too expensive to be a gift?" said Myles painfully.
"Come on! It's just a sports car. It's worth it to get to know my master. There are so many people out there who are willing to spend money just to know my master but don't have the chance." What Canaan said was true. A lot of people wished to ride on Maximilian's coattails but didn't know how to make friends with him.
Myles sighed heavily and said in agony, "What a tragedy! It seems I won't be able to get back my sports car."
Canaan glanced at Myles in despise and said unhappily, "Don't lose sight of the whole picture. Why do you only focus on your sports car? It's a great opportunity once in a blue moon."
"You don't understand. Never mind. Since you can't help me, I should try someone else."
"I suggest you not to implicate others in it. Given my master's ability and strength, it's like beating a dead horse even if you get someone else involved in it. You may even suffer more loss." Canaan felt obliged to give him the advice, which sounded annoying to Myles. Myles stared at Canaan and turned around to leave the office.
Sitting on the couch, Maximilian, Victoria and Flora stared at the statue of Bodhisattva on the table, which was a delicate gold Thousand-hand Bodhisattva with many precious gems and jades on the hands and eyes.
"Who sent it?" asked Maximilian, staring at the statue.
"It's Master Fazhi, from Lingshan temple. When I just arrived at the office, two acolytes from Lingshan temple sent this statue." said Victoria.
She was confused and had no idea why Master Fazhi would send them the statue, as it was not for a festival or something. Besides, she had never heard that the master of a temple would give statue of Bodhisattva to someone.
"Did the two acolytes say anything when they send it here?"
"They only told me that they sent it under Master Fazhi's order and left immediately after putting it down."
Flora curled up her lips and was stopped by Victoria when she was about to touch the statue of Bodhisattva. "Flora, don't touch it at random. It's the statue of Bodhisattva, which has been honored. It's disrespectful to touch it at random," said Victoria seriously.
"I am not gonna touch it at random. Please rest assured, Victoria." Flora explained and she didn't try any more.
Maximilian thought for a moment and said, "Now that they have sent the statue of Bodhisattva, we can't return it. I say we go to the Lingshan temple and donate some money as a return."
"You are right! We should go to the Lingshan temple and ask Master Fazhi about it. I don't know why but I just feel worried." Victoria felt disturbed as if something would happen.
Maximilian smiled and held Victoria's hand to comfort her. Then he stood up and said, "Let's go now. It should be done better early than late. Once we figure it out, we can feel relieved."------------
