Chapter 741


    A ck Coro was speeding along the highway to Zovince. ke was at a


    speed of 180km/h.


    The ten-year-old car was puffing ck smoke from its hood.


    “D*mn! Out of gas again!” he cursed. “Gas is so expensive these days. It’s


    going to cost me another 50 bucks to fill the tank.”


    Sitting in the back seat, Magnus pushed up his sses emotionlessly. He


    chuckled. “You must have made quite a bit of money from my father. Did you


    spend it all on girls? Why are you still driving this old car from ten years ago?”


    “It’s called sentiment. You won’t get it.” ke didn’t feel like exining to


    Magnus. How would a youngster in his early 20s understand anything about


    sentiment?


    Those girls wouldn’t covet his house or his car, yet they willingly gave


    everything to him and serve him with all their heart. They could easily make


    his day.


    Was it wrong for him to spend a lot of money every day to help those girls?


    Magnus just smiled and didn’t argue further. He silently watched ke drive


    into the gas station.


    ke then argued with the employee over a few bucks of gas money,


    causing a scene.


    “Did you win?” he teased ke, who got into the car again.


    “Of course, I won.” ke’s face was full of triumph. “I said I would fill up the


    tank, but she insisted on rounding up, overcharging me by a few bucks. Of


    course, I wouldn’t pay her.”


    Magnus showed an admiring smile. “You’re really something. I probably


    wouldn’t have been able to argue with that woman.”


    “That’s why I say you can’t be the smartest person in the world. You can’t


    even win an argument with a woman. Just what are you?” ke didn’t show


    Courtesy to one of the Zovince’s Four Geniuses.


    Magnus merely smiled. Suddenly, his phone buzzed. He took it out and looked


    at the message, and his smile instantly froze.


    “What’s wrong? Did Felicity fail?” ke restarted the engine and showed a


    mouthful of yellow teeth as he asked.


    Magnus smiled faintly. “It was something I expected. If a few minions could


    steal something from the Quillen family that easily, those two items would


    have been gone long ago.”


    “True. Why didn’t you say so before this? You knew she would fail, yet you still


    arranged for four people to help her. Isn’t that a joke?” ke mocked him


    again.


    Magnus just smiled casually, not minding at all. “I was just testing the waters


    to see if Terence kept those two items in the Quillen family. It seems that at


    least one of them is not.”


    “Oh?” ke was slightly taken aback. He finally spoke respectfully, “How?”


    “Do you really think that my intelligence is a joke?” Magnus rarely joked with


    others, but he was joking with ke. Thetter snorted.


    Magnus then exined, “People appear weak when they are strong and vice


    versa. Terence deliberately heavily guards one room to mislead others that

    he’s keeping those two items in the Quillen family.”


    “Brilliant.” keughed heartily. “When someone finally breaks in, they find


    it’s a trap! Their faces must be priceless, right? If it were me, I’d be cursing!”


    Magnus just smiled and didn’t say anything.


    ke gave him a thumbs-up. “I was wondering why you would help Felicity


    Lenoir steal those two items. I mean, why would you send such trash for that


    mission? You could’ve sent me.”


    “You’re not up to it.” Magnus smiled.


    “What? Are you looking down on me?”


    “No,” Magnus said seriously. “You’re my trump card. I should save the best for


    thest.”


    ke burst intoughter. “You’re good for nothing, but you have an eye for


    people.”


    Meanwhile, Emmanuel spent the next two days at home making medicines


    after returning from the Quillen family’s celebration.
