Cedric was shocked at Max's words, by the way he spoke about the Chan family earlier, no one would think that the Chan's were the greatest thing to happen to their lives.
"I don't understand." Mae suddenly said in a shaky voice. Just like everyone else in Cedric's group she had come to love Cedric's friends and their families. In her eyes, the Chans could do no wrong.
"We knew that Mr. Reyes is a good friend of the Chan family." Max explained with a frown. "As a matter of face, when we met you, my mom wanted to send you away."
"Why didn't you?" Cedric asked as he leaned forward and listened intently to Max.
"You are Mr. Cedric Reyes, the CEO of the Reyes Group, you can control this whole country if you wanted to." Max said with a frown. "A simple farmer like myself has no power to make you leave if you didn't want to."
