Chapter 65


    That day, he saw Magnus in a meeting with the CEO of a conglomerate from France. To his surprise,


    the CEO was bending over to shake hands with Magnus. The sight of such deference was like a sharp

    needle pricking Lucius’ eyes.


    It was supposed to be all his. Why was he on the outside looking in? He needed to make his move!


    Originally, he nned to wait until Magnus faltered due to hisck of business acumen, expecting him


    to be criticized by other board members and step down from his position willingly. But Magnus had


    proven him wrong. He not only managed thepany effectively but also expanded it globally. Magnus


    had even reced the staff with his own trusted experts brought over from France!


    He had underestimated his adversary. He found out that Magnus owned a multinational corporation in


    France. Magnus had really invested heavily in thest nine years; leaving him around would only mean


    trouble in the future!


    He stood up, locked his office door, and made a phone call.


    At ten in the morning, Magnus received a call that caused a storm to brew in his mind.


    At six in the evening, Magnus sat in his wheelchair, took the elevator directly to the underground


    parking lot, and Linden opened the car door for him. With a light push of his hands, Linden ced the


    wheelchair in the trunk, and the car slowly left the parking lot. Three cars followed Magnus’ car closely


    after it left.


    Magnus was on his way to a dinner that he had arranged with the CEO of the conglomerate from


    France. The dinner was to be held at Cloud Mountain Vi. As Magnus’ car was about to turn into the


    vi, the three cars following him sped up and crashed into his car.


    In the ensuing chaos, Magnus’ car was pushed towards the edge of a cliff. The men in the cars quickly


    took out guns. One put on sunsses and, at Linden''s nod, started shooting at the cars behind them.


    At dusk, four cars were engaged in a fierce battle on the deserted road near Cloud Mountain Vi. One


    of the cars rammed into Magnus’ car, causing it to flip over the edge of the cliff.


    Meanwhile, Linden and the man with the sunsses jumped out of the car and took cover behind a


    The car that had rammed into Magnus’ started to catch fire. The mes soared into the sky! Linden and


    the man in sunsses, both injured by bullets, managed to escape in the light of the explosion.


    Elsewhere, in Golden Groove, Magnus received a phone call. His cold eyes shed red. He muttered a


    few words, sounding exhausted, "Handle the aftermath..."


    In another bar, Lucius received a call and immediately stood up. "What’s the situation?"


    "Mr. Lucius, we lost four men, their car went over the cliff, but they might have jumped out!" The tense


    voice on the phone made Lucius break into a grin.


    He finallyughed. "They can''t escape. Even if they survived the fall, the cripple won’t make it far!"


    He hung up the call, his eyes revealing a ruthless light. Magnus, do you want to y? I''ll y you to


    death!


    He gulped down a ss of whiskey, grabbed a woman on the couch, and kissed her. He spit the


    whiskey into her mouth, forcing her to swallow it. The woman coughed andined, "Mr. Lucius,


    you''re so wicked!"


    Luciusughed wildly. "Tonight, you’re going to see just how wicked I can be!" He picked up the woman


    and carried her to a private room amid herughter.


    The next day, Lucius was awakened from his sleep by two police officers.


    "What’s going on?" Lucius asked, springing up from the bed.


    "Mr. Lucius, we suspect you''re involved in the car crash and fire incident at Cloud Mountain Vi


    yesterday. It might be a case of attempted murder!" One officer informed him.


    "I don''t know what you''re talking about. I was here all day yesterday. Lilly can vouch for me." Lucius


    quickly pulled the woman hiding behind him to his side.


    Lilly nodded eagerly, "Yes, Mr. Lucius was here all afternoon yesterday. He never left!"


    The police officer stepped forward. "Mr. Lucius, the owners of three of the four cars involved in the


    ident had phone calls with you yesterday, and they also received money from you. We have


    records. We''ve already detained one of the car owners. He confessed that you hired him to


    assassinate the CEO of Andersen Corporation, Magnus!"


    Lucius, a seasoned yer, put on his clothes and stood up. His cold gaze met the officer’s. "I’ll tell you


    this, I have nothing to do with this. The CEO of Andersen Corporation is my brother. Why would I want


    to kill him? I’ll cooperate with your investigation, but if you find out I''m innocent, you better start looking


    for a new job."


    With that, he walked out of the room.


    Just as Lucius arrived at the police station, he heard someone report, "The car ownermitted


    suicide!"


    The two officers were taken aback. Lucius smirked. When he hired them, he had made it clear that if


    they failed, they had to disappear from Melfort, either by death or escape. If they got caught, he


    wouldn’t hesitate to wipe out their entire families!


    To avoid involving his family, the car owner had swallowed the poison hidden under his fingernail.


    Lucius was released after half a day at the station since there was no evidence linking him to the crime.


    An hourter, all the ounts that had received money from Lucius were wiped clean. There was no


    trace of where the money had gone.


    When Lucius walked into Andersen Corporation full of glee, he saw Paul pushing Magnus’ wheelchair


    towards the front door of the building. He stood in shock as he watched Magnus sitting in the


    wheelchair, alive and well.


    He didn''t die! Hadn''t he fallen off a cliff?


    As Lucius stared in disbelief, Magnus turned his head and saw Lucius standing by the pir. He gave a


    sinister smile as his wheelchair glided past Lucius. "Lucius, surprised that I''m still alive?"


    Lucius looked at the man who was smiling like a devil. This wasn''t a man who had fallen off a cliff! He


    had been tricked!


    These fools!


    Magnus slid closer, and his icy slits of eyes were piercing like a sword, aimed straight at Lucius.


    "You''ve been using these low-life tricks against me for years, aren''t you tired?


    “Howe you''ve made no progress? How could these stale schemes of murder possibly kill me? I


    believe you can still recall, two years ago, you used the same method to try to off me in France. Aren''t


    you bored with these old tricks?


    “Lucius, I advise you to stay put in the corner I''ve designated for you and quietly continue as my vice


    president! Don''t me me for not cherishing our brotherhood if there''s a next time! Your three


    chauffeurs have nicely fed my Perth! Much obliged!" Magnus finished, raising an eyebrow. He turned


    and left.


    Lucius was left behind, his gaze following Magnus'' retreating with a fierce light. "Magnus, don''t get too


    smug. Our feud has only just begun!" The man roared at the sky.
