Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 2904: Chapter 2024: The Rising Murderous Intent (Part 2)

”Mr. Reid.” Vice Chairman Morgan called on the phone, then slowly said, ”You came to inform me in a timely manner, how can this be considered an interruption? Actually, I personally admire your capability and value what you’re doing on your end. I hope you can keep up the good work and create more opportunities for direct communication and exchange between us.”

Vice Chairman Morgan didn’t dwell on the usefulness of this conversation but instead offered encouragement.

Mr. Reid’s heart burned with excitement as he responded repeatedly, ”Yes, yes, good, I understand! Then you have a good rest!”

”Goodbye, Mr. Reid.” Vice Chairman Morgan also said.

The call finally ended.

Mr. Reid still felt a burning excitement in his heart. With Vice Chairman Morgan’s words, he felt his prospects were boundless.

On the other side.

Vice Chairman Morgan leaned back in his chair, smoking a cigar, with Caroline sitting opposite him.

”Is that the manager Reid who plans to betray Margery and join your side?” Caroline asked.

Vice Chairman Morgan hadn’t avoided her during that call.

In truth, he kept no secrets from her on many of those issues, to show trust.

Now, as Caroline inquired, Vice Chairman Morgan exhaled smoke and sneered, ”It’s him. He’s already started reporting on Margery. A downright petty man, but such people are very useful.”

Caroline nodded.

She had no interest in learning more about Reid.

Such people never deserved her regard.

Vice Chairman Morgan only offered some benefits because Reid could bring a group of followers to his side from Mrs. Margery’s hold.

As for becoming a confidant, such a person would never qualify in this lifetime.

”Has Bai Xiaosheng arrived at Wan Yu according to our plan?” Caroline’s lips curled into a malicious smile as she asked.

She preferred to focus her attention on Bai Xiaosheng.

”If everything is proceeding smoothly on Mrs. Margery’s side, isn’t he about to be trapped?” Caroline added.

Mrs. Margery had mentioned to Bai Xiaosheng that Vice Chairman Morgan and Caroline were arranging a deadly plot against him.

This openness was, in fact, part of the plan.

Mrs. Margery was a particularly crucial element in the plan, responsible for misleading and deceiving Bai Xiaosheng.

In Vice Chairman Morgan and Caroline’s view, the ultimate tactic of lies and schemes is to mix truth and falsehood, making detection and defense difficult.

This move was something Vice Chairman Morgan and Caroline had meticulously planned for a long time.

”The latest news suggests everything is proceeding smoothly!” Vice Chairman Morgan took a deep drag on his cigar, exhaling smoke with a vicious smile, ”Even if Bai Xiaosheng is smart, he can’t compete with such calculations from us! This time, I want him to experience bone-chilling pain, falling into hell amidst the ecstasy and complacency of completing the group task!”

Then, Vice Chairman Morgan harshly crushed the remaining cigar in the ashtray.

”This is also to repay him for the troubles he and Wen Yan brought me over the past year!”

”For a long time, Bai Xiaosheng has been an unbearable headache for us. If we can get rid of him once and for all, any price is worth it!” Caroline also said.

This time, Mrs. Margery invited Bai Xiaosheng to attend the thank-you cocktail party, confining him within sight, within Wan Yu, so he couldn’t detect other layouts elsewhere.

Among the significant corporations Bai Xiaosheng once traversed in the Sixth Business Division, Vice Chairman Morgan and his allies carefully selected over a dozen significant enterprises related to Bai Xiaosheng.

The heads of those companies are reliable and will create flawless ”evidence” to prove that Bai Xiaosheng, in pursuit of performance, disregarded the group’s interests, and even blatantly demanded kickbacks, lining his pockets!

Once all the evidence is repeatedly hammered into being watertight, Vice Chairman Morgan and his allies will strike.

At headquarters, Vice Chairman Morgan has secretly gathered a large number of executives, ready to make Bai Xiaosheng suffer eternal damnation once the situation is ”proven.”

The Morgan family and the Caroline family have invested heavily in this plot.

But as Caroline stated, eliminating Bai Xiaosheng in one fell swoop is worth any cost!

Once Bai Xiaosheng is gone, with only Wen Yan left, they can easily restore the confrontational balance from long ago.

”No matter what, Bai Xiaosheng is a dead man this time!”

Vice Chairman Morgan narrowed his eyes, his gaze firm with cold cutting edge.

Bai Xiaosheng and Wen Yan together posed an enormous threat, repeatedly launching offensives against him, causing embarrassing and challenging situations to handle.

Whether he admits it or not, Vice Chairman Morgan already harbors deep apprehension towards Bai Xiaosheng in his heart, even starting to feel anxious about their next move, unable to sleep peacefully.

Therefore, no matter what, he must see Bai Xiaosheng completely ruined!

”Although Mrs. Margery personally arranged everything in the Sixth Business Division, every step ultimately needs your and my confirmation to set our minds at rest!” Caroline reminded Vice Chairman Morgan once more.

”Rest assured, that is necessary.” Vice Chairman Morgan responded.

Caroline seemed to have more to say, yet also seemed hesitant about the propriety of expressing it.

”What do you want to say?” Vice Chairman Morgan noticed Caroline’s unusual demeanor and gestured with his chin, ”Go ahead.”

”Regarding Reid and those around him, is it perhaps inappropriate to accept them at this time?” Caroline said, ”If Mrs. Margery perceives this, it will be hard to explain.”

Vice Chairman Morgan naturally understood Caroline’s meaning: at this moment, they needed sincere unity. If Mrs. Margery had suspicions, it could lead to unforeseen complications.

Vice Chairman Morgan’s lips curved into a smile, utterly composed, ”Don’t worry, I already have a plan for this.”

”My family contacted Reid under the guise of a marriage alliance. A woman from my family and Reid’s son are in love. With this pretense, even if Margery knows, what can she say?”

”Moreover, if Margery discovers my close relationship with Reid and expresses severe dissatisfaction, I’ll simply hand over Reid and the names of those he brought over to her, claiming they intended to defect to my side, which I didn’t want. These expendable pieces are currently less valuable than Margery. With my years of friendship with Margery, she can’t turn against me quickly.”

Caroline thought about it, nodding slightly.

”Furthermore, Margery and I have been on the same ship for many years, already grasshoppers on the same string.” Vice Chairman Morgan sneered, ”If I fall, she won’t escape either! Because of those Sixth Business Division affairs, she tacitly approved or personally handled them, and she’s reaped plenty of benefits! So she’ll never think of shaking me off in this lifetime!”

Vice Chairman Morgan’s words were filled with menace.

Caroline couldn’t help but feel a chill in her heart.

Her situation wasn’t much better than Caroline’s; her family served as Vice Chairman Morgan’s attendant in Oceania, benefiting others.

Even as smart as she was, she was powerless. Once on a pirate ship, there was no getting off.

Outwardly, Caroline laughed, ”Then I am reassured.”

Vice Chairman Morgan stroked the carved lion head on the armrest, his eyes looking at the void ahead, filled with anticipation, ”Now, just wait for news from Margery’s side. Once everything is fully prepared, you and I will review the evidence one last time. That’s when Bai Xiaosheng meets his end!”

Hearing this, Caroline couldn’t help but reveal a hopeful smile, ”Can’t wait for that moment to arrive!”

Compared to the suppression caused by Vice Chairman Morgan deep in her heart, it’s most desirable to eliminate Bai Xiaosheng promptly.

At this moment, Bai Xiaosheng, whom Vice Chairman Morgan and Caroline loathed and hated deeply, was resting in the room, preparing for the evening banquet.

Lying on the bed, Bai Xiaosheng closed his eyes to rest, mentally reviewing his conversation with Mrs. Margery unconsciously muttering a sentence.

”Indeed, no matter how old, women are terrifying!”
