\u201cMatthew\u2026 don\u2019t act on impulse. Killing someone is illegal.\u201d Rex bared his teeth in pain, tears spilling out.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWho told Dad to kill Curtis?\u201d Matthew asked in a low voice.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t know. I really don\u2019t know. Dad just told me to find someone to run Curtis over. You know me\u2013I\u2019ve always been obedient. I never ask questions\u2026 Please let me go. I really don\u2019t know.\u201d Rex cried and begged Matthew.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Matthew stared at Rex with a dark expression. He truly wanted to take this chance to kill Rex.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That way, he\u2019d be rid of one competitor.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But murder would land him in jail for life. This idiot simply wasn\u2019t worth it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Matthew lowered him to the ground and hissed coldly, \u201cYou\u2019d better keep your mouth shut about what happened today. If Dad finds out\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI won\u2019t say anything. I won\u2019t!\u201d Rex collapsed on the floor, crying and begging.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Matthew knew Rex would definitely go snitch. Warnings were useless.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He really did need to seriously consider whether to cooperate with Curtis.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Things would only get harder for him within the Langfords.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Joneses had fallen, but they still had some influence left. Natasha was now with Rex, and Rex\u2019s standing in the Langfords had become a serious threat to him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If Matthew didn\u2019t act soon, just like Curtis said, the Langfords would end up in the hands of those illegitimate sons.\u00a0<\/p>\n
At Curtis\u2019s villa.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Before going home, Curtis aired out the smell of smoke on himself outside.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana was already asleep, hugging Curtis\u2019s pillow. She looked like she had no sense of safety.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis showered in the guest room, then carefully returned to the bedroom, afraid of waking Adriana.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He gently pulled her into his arms, took the pillow away, and let her hold him instead.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Adriana hummed softly. Her sleep wasn\u2019t very deep.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She nestled closer into Curtis\u2019s arms and fell back asleep.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis finally relaxed, relieved he hadn\u2019t woken her.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Adriana slept more soundly in his arms. Only then did he slowly loosen up, hold her tighter, and kiss her forehead before drifting off.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Having a wife was really nice.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis slept peacefully. But Matthew wasn\u2019t so lucky.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He\u2019d just warned Rex not to say anything, and the next second, Rex ran straight to Raymond to snitch.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That very night, Matthew was summoned back to the estate to be punished.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cTeaming up with outsiders to kidnap your brother. Matthew, you\u2019ve got some nerve!\u201d Raymond roared, swinging the stick hard into Matthew\u2019s back.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Matthew knelt on the floor, clenching his fists and enduring it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
From childhood to now, Raymond\u2019s way of raising him had always been violent. Meanwhile, Rex and the other illegitimate sons were compensated under the excuse of \u201cnot being raised by his side\u201c.\u00a0<\/p>\n
How ridiculous.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If he could choose, Matthew would rather not have grown up by Raymond\u2019s side.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Yet in Raymond\u2019s eyes, that was somehow a favor.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cRex is an idiot. He had someone run Curtis over, and Curtis found out long ago! If we don\u2019t let Curtis vent his anger, even Langford Group will be dragged down!\u201d Matthew snapped angrily.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Unless you\u2019re absolutely certain you could kill Curtis in one blow, it\u2019s best not to provoke that madman.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But Raymond and Rex simply didn\u2019t understand.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cCurtis has already been kicked out of Lincoln Group. What can he do with just that bit of money? Can he really turn the tables? I want to see how he plans to start a business in Haldoria!\u201d Raymond sneered disdainfully.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As if Curtis could use pocket money to make a comeback.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Everyone in the business circle has their eyes on Curtis. No one will allow him to rise again.\u00a0<\/p>\n
They will all band together and make sure Curtis stays buried.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re delusional\u2026\u201d Matthew ground his teeth.\u00a0<\/p>\n
They are all too full of themselves.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Even if Curtis looks like he\u2019s at rock bottom with no way up, I have a gut feeling that Curtis still has an escape route.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Curtis I know will never corner himself completely. He definitely still has a trump card he hasn\u2019t played.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDad, who told you to get rid of Curtis? Don\u2019t let yourself be used\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Before Matthew could finish, Raymond brought the stick down hard on his back. He used full force.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Matthew tasted blood in his throat, gritting his teeth as he clenched his fists tightly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDad\u2026 Matthew nearly had me killed by Curtis\u2019s people.\u201d Rex kept fanning the flames from the side.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Paige Castillo, Rex\u2019s mother and Raymond\u2019s kept mistress at the estate, added fuel to the fire.\u00a0<\/p>\n
son.\u201d \u201cRaymond, even though Matthew was raised by your side, you can\u2019t let him kill my\u00a0<\/p>\n
Raymond\u2019s face darkened as he struck Matthew\u2019s back again and again.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the end, Matthew couldn\u2019t hold it in and spat out a mouthful of blood. He wiped the corner of his lips in disgrace, his whole body trembling.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Matthew became even more determined to cooperate with Curtis.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Raymond and Rex were idiots.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThink about what you\u2019ve done! Without my permission, you\u2019re not allowed to get up!\u201d Raymond said coldly. He tossed the stick aside and turned to leave.\u00a0<\/p>\n
