Max smiled listening to Regus's offer.
If there were any lingering doubts in his mind that the King was desperate, they were now dispelled.
Regus's hatred for him was so profound it was oozing through his teeth as he said this offer.
It wasn't an exaggeration to say that if Regus was not forced to give Max such a flowery offer, he would most likely be dead by now, or still rotting inside the underground prison.
The fact that Regus was forced to hold this talk was a big win for Max as it showed that the King was desperate.
In fairness, his offer was not at all bad.
If Max promised to not go after the throne, Regus was willing to look the other way for everything else.
