Raymond frowned, his brow tightening. He started to speak, but the door slammed open with a loud crash. Curtis walked in with his assistant, dragging a bloodied man by the arm.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The guy\u2019s face was swollen and bruised purple. He hit the floor with a sickening thud. When he looked up\u00a0<\/p>\n
and spotted Rex, fear rushed through his eyes. Rex\u2019s face went ghost pale.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Matthew\u2019s eyes narrowed. One look and he knew. Rex had screwed up again.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He almost laughed. Rex was basically a gift\u2013wrapped present for the enemy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Matthew smirked and leaned back in his seat like he was at a show.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Raymond\u2019s face shifted. He stood quickly. \u201cCurtis, what is going on?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis didn\u2019t even blink. He stared straight at Rex. His voice dropped low. \u201cWhy don\u2019t you ask your golden boy?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The man on the floor shook, then pointed. \u201cIt was him. He told me to kill Curtis.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNo\u2026 no, I didn\u2019t!\u201d Rex yelled, voice cracking.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Matthew snorted. He couldn\u2019t believe his father still treated this idiot like he was worth something.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Raymond looked shaken. He turned to Curtis, struggling to stay calm. \u201cThere\u2019s got to be some mix\u2013up here, Curtis. This isn\u2019t what it looks like.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis exhaled slowly, his breath heavy with contempt. \u201cA mix\u2013up? Fine. Then let\u2019s pause this deal until your company figures out what\u2019s really going on.\u201d He nodded to his assistant, who let the guy go. Curtis turned and walked out without another word.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The silence felt like a heavy curtain. Then came the crack of a slap. Raymond\u2019s hand struck Rex hard across the face.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Rex held his cheek and looked stunned. Sure, he\u2019d been thinking about getting rid of Curtis, but he didn\u2019t know the man on the floor at all.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The attacker scrambled to his feet and bolted out of the room.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDad, please. You\u2019ve got to believe me. That guy\u2019s not mine. I haven\u2019t even sent my people out yet-\u201d Another slap hit before he could finish.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Rex had another brilliant idea of assassination. He\u2019d send his men to take Curtis out and ruin the whole thing.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Raymond\u2019s face was dark with rage. \u201cHow many times have I told you? This deal is everything. Everything! We need to get the money from Curtis first. And you? You ruin everything you touch. Get out. Don\u2019t show your face here again unless I tell you to.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Rex clenched his fists tight, his eyes locked on Matthew. \u201cIt was you, wasn\u2019t it? You planned this. That guy was your setup, wasn\u2019t he?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Matthew didn\u2019t flinch. \u201cDad, I think he\u2019s lost his damn mind.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
He raised one brow and drew in a breath. So Curtis had already predicted that Rex would pull something this stupid. That guy didn\u2019t play games. When he decided to act, it was cold and ruthless. It chilled Matthew right down to the bone.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cOut!\u201d Raymond snapped. Rex stormed off, furious but helpless.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Once he was gone, Mr. Langford dropped into the seat across from Matthew. \u201cI called Curtis today. He said he was with his wife for a prenatal checkup. Looks like she\u2019s pregnant.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Just like that, the wheels in his head started spinning again.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cCurtis never leaves loose ends. He kept his wife\u2019s pregnancy quiet because he knew that as long as Harold was alive, someone might come after the baby. But now the pregnancy\u2019s far enough along, there\u2019s no hiding it anymore. So he told you himself. Any idea why?\u201d Matthew looked straight at Raymond, his smile cold and sharp.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Raymond didn\u2019t answer. His face darkened.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis had made his point clear. If anything happened to Adriana or the baby, no matter who was behind it, he would hold Raymond and the Langford Group responsible.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis might\u2019ve stepped back from Lincoln Group, but he still had the power to bring Langford Group down with him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Raymond let out a slow breath. The tension in his jaw cased, just a little. He gave up on the idea of using Adriana. \u201cFine. I\u2019ll hand over the shares and give you full control of the group right now. Go talk to Curtis. Get him to calm down. Get that deal locked in. I\u2019m done waiting.\u201d He wasn\u2019t the one who couldn\u2019t wait. Someone behind him was already pushing hard.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDad, I\u2019ve got a question,\u201d Matthew said quietly. \u201cEven if Curtis came back swinging, it\u2019d hurt the Langford Group, sure, but not enough to make you do something this reckless. Who\u2019s behind you? Who\u2019s got you so scared you\u2019d try to steal his inheritance and turn on him like\u00a0<\/p>\n

this? This doesn\u2019t help the family. If this leaks or the cops get involved, Langford Group\u2019s name goes down in flames. Once the trust is gone, no one\u2019s doing business with us again.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
He wanted to know who was calling the shots.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Raymond\u2019s face lost all color. He waved Matthew off and didn\u2019t answer. \u201cYou don\u2019t get it. Cutting Curtis off now is what\u2019s best for Langford Group.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThat excuse is weak,\u201d Matthew said. \u201cYou owe me a real reason.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re pushing it,\u201d Mr. Langford snapped. \u201cI\u2019m your father. You follow my lead. Just remember one thing. If we don\u2019t do this, Langford Group\u2019s done. So is the family.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Matthew didn\u2019t ask again. He knew he wouldn\u2019t get the truth.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But now it was obvious. Someone out there had enough dirt to take out Raymond and the entire Langford Group in one move.\u00a0<\/p>\n
