Chapter 2656

Eliza’s mouth parted a little in shock.

She could not believe that a cautious person like him would make such a remark.

“Am I wrong in saying that?” Max asked.

“You shouldn’t presume other people think of you the way you do. When my team members talk about
you, they’re all full of admiration. It was daring of you to go against Jewell Corporation, and it was kind
of you to donate one billion dollars just like that. Even the First Lady praised you in private. How many
people in the world do you think can be like you? Honestly, people who laugh at you are evil.”

Eliza was stunned.

Although she knew that Max was comforting her, his words warmed her heart.

“Based on what you said, I suddenly think I’m a good person to be practicing all the traditional virtues.”
Eliza laughed at herself.

“Charity, you’ve been a victim all along, yet you’re still willing to help others.

That’s considered amazing. Let’s go.”

Max took all of her luggage. “From now on, I’ll be your bodyguard.”

Eliza looked at him quietly for a moment before saying helplessly, “Max, you treat me very well, but my
heart is dead. I can’t return the favor.”

“I don’t expect you to return any favor. All you need to do is treat me as a friend.

Shouldn’t we help each other as friends? It takes a few days to arrive at Drildool by train, and it’s really
unsafe for a girl like you to be traveling alone. Who knows if anyone from the Jewell family will take
revenge against you during the journey?”

After Max said frankly, he lifted the luggage and walked forward.

Eliza sighed. She had no choice but to follow him.

In the prison visiting room.



Seated on one side was Shaun holding the phone, while on the other side was Chester, who was in a
blue prison uniform. After getting a crew cut, he looked less handsome, but his prominent features
made him look a little fiercer and wilder.

“This is unexpected. I can’t believe there’d come a day where I ’ll be chatting with you like this,” Shaun
mocked playfully.

“I didn’t expect this either.” Chester’s lips curled into a self-deprecating smile. “This is indeed the most
memorable moment in my life.”

“That’s why you shouldn’t look down on women.” Shaun sighed and said, “With your identity, you could
easily get any woman, why did you have to force yourself on her?”

Chester fell quiet.



In fact, he would never do that in the past. Back then, women did it with him for money, and it was
consensual.

However, the more Eliza rejected him, the more he wanted her.

“Maybe… it bothered me because I couldn’t get her.”

“But it didn’t seem like you cherished her after you got her.” Shaun shook his head. “ In the end, you
even tricked Eliza. Why don’t you guess what she has done with the one billion dollars you gave her?”

“Onebillion dollars is quite attractive.” Chester said nonchalantly, “Doesn’t she hate me or feel upset
with me because I didn’t give her money or luxurious cars?”

“You’re wrong.”

Shaun said, “She donated the one billion dollars to the poor. What’s more, she has personally gone to
those rural areas to build schools and hospitals to make sure the money is used wisely. Even the
international media have reported about it. Every mainstream TV channel is now praising her and
setting her as an example. I believe no other movie star or queen can compare to her.”
