Max And Ruby Parents Novels & Stories

Mom wasn't completely fooled. Dad's expression became smug again. "This is where your lack of networking proves that you're a fool. If not for me networking and building relationships with these people, no one would offer me such a great opportunity. It sounds like this man is hiring a caretaker, but he already has a housekeeper and driver.

This is not going well. "Okay" Ruby smiled. She moved back to her seat shifting closer to me. She held my arm still smiling. "Em..' I cleared my throat. "Mum, this the woman I told you about and wish to marry." Mum was silent. She wasn't smiling. She doesn't seem happy. She was still starring at Ruby from head to toe like she could kill her with her eyes. "Who are your parents Ruby?" Mum finally spoke up "My mother is late but my father is the two time Mayor of this town, you know him right? Your husband served him once" she said smiling. Mum looked at her with a raised eye brow.

and the "Goddess of Luck" And riding on this wave of popularity, I made another fortune for the company. It was such a shame that I never faced any karma, but my biological parents sure did. In less than a year, news came that Dad had starved to death. It was rather pitiful, really. If his beloved son hadn't been stealing his share of the prison food every day, maybe he could've held on for another two years. At the thought of this, I couldn't help but shake my head in pity. I wondered how much longer Mom could hold on. A year or two, perhaps? I had to say, I was kind of looking forward to it.

But I grit my teeth at his words knowing the only reason I was as desperate as my parents right now is because they have Maxwell. “What would you tell your daddy and mommy when they hear I'll be unable to attend his company's Galla because you wouldn't let me go to work and I suddenly ran off huh? You'd be ruining his reputation again, I'm quite sure he wouldn't take that well.” I say to Ryan clearly bluffing but the mention of his parents do not allow him fully think my statement through and that's all I needed.

My father nodded vigorously. “Yes, exactly! The shares and the company should stay with us. You’re too young to handle that kind of money and responsibility. It’s not right.” [Shares will be returned through original channels upon consent from all involved parties. Please confirm.] “I consent,” my father said impatiently. At my mother’s urging, Jacob reluctantly nodded as well. “I consent.” In the past, I desperately longed for my family’s affection, and I would have agreed immediately. I would have tried to use my obedience to earn a little love from my parents.

" Harry stood pitifully at the side with his head lowered. My father's face fell, and he slammed the table as he roared at me, "Money, money, money! That's all you talk about! What else do you know but money? You're abandoning your parents because you're only focused on making money! "You never visit, and you don't even come home for Christmas, but the minute you're home, money is all you talk about. You should just spend your life with your work and money. Why do you even bother returning home?"

Her voice becomes clipped and she grits her teeth. "You are also not losing out while here. You got a brand new car and clothes. I can just take them away if you're so ungrateful." Max shrugs slightly, pivoting away. Maryanne scoffs, a laugh forming in her throat, "Do it. I don't need your gifts. Money doesn't fix everything. A parent should know that." Max's anger begins to leak out, his arms waving as he rants, "Why is everything about being a good parent? Our lives don't revolve around Riley. We are her guardians, that's it. Think about yourself for once, Mary."

Kyra- “Max, do you know who your parents are?” I was careful how I put my question because I wasn’t sure he would get my meaning. “I was created from magic.” Max responded as if it was the easiest thing for him to answer. “Would you mind explaining that?” My mother was the one to ask the question. As if he just realized there were others around, Max turned to look at my mother. He gave her a confused look, then turned to look at my brothers and Caleb. His eyes widened when he saw Caleb.

Damon looked down at his son. “Love, why don’t your mother and I come to the training center with you both tomorrow?” Max grimaced at his Dad. “No, no it’s okay. You don’t have to. I can figure something out.” “Why not? You’re not embarrassed of us are you?” Damom asked, feeling a nervous knot appear in his chest. “I know we’re not the most typical parents compared to other families, but having two working parents is a lot more common now than you might think.”

I knew why. My best friend’s parents were very wealthy. Ruby's father was the CEO of Fex Textiles, and if there was anything my parents loved more than Tessa, it was building connections. It was why they had been over the moon when my twin started dating Ethan, the Alpha's son. Mother, still smiling, dropped her knitting in her lap to ask Ruby how her parents were. "Very well, Mrs. Westwood," Ruby replied politely. "They send their regards." "Oh, wonderful," my mother exclaimed, rubbing her hands together.
