Chapter 328: Representative

The Banquet this time will be at Lord Olfan's mansion. This time, everyone who was invited was all prominent people. Not just in the city but also in the entire region and even a few of his friends from the other regions flew here just to attend his birthday party.

"Are they here?" Olfan asked the man standing next to him, his voice lowered as he smiled at the other people at the party.

"No, sir."

"I wasn't expecting that Q would really come to your birthday," the man opposite him said before drinking his wine. "Ah, rumor has it that they are working on abolishing the territory system. What do you think about this?" The man was actually the newly appointed leader of the Ghost Tower. This man is the late Ghost Rider's illegitimate son. His name was Wei Yimu.

"Little Brother Wei should stop listening to gossip like this." The man sitting next to Wei Yimu smiled. "It has been like this for years now. How could someone who only stayed here for a few years do such a thing? Lord Olfan is not only the leader of this place, he is also considering the mayor's position. Once he becomes the mayor, there will be no going back. The entire City would surely belong to him." The man crossed his long legs and elegantly sipped his champagne before kissing the woman in his arms.

"These are nothing but rumors." Lord Olfan spoke, flashes of Lyca's face filled his head. For some reason, he was actually excited to see the woman who was almost half his age. He thought about Lyca framing him, letting everyone think that the robbery on the Chu Family's jewelry store was his doing. However, he wasn't really blaming her.

After all, that also saved him the trouble of getting rid of the Chu Family. Because Lyca made everything think that he did it, the Chu Family stopped contacting him. Which was for the best. After all, the Chu Family had ties in the capital.

"Nevertheless, they are extremely courageous, no?"

"I heard another rumor," Wei Yimu spoke. "Listening to various rumors every day can be fun, too. After all, I work in the entertainment industry. I need to listen to various gossips from the crowd so I could stay away from troublesome people."

"What is it, this time?"

"I heard that the one responsible for the destruction of the Chu Family in Kong City is actually the Main branch. And get this! Q and his wife recently traveled to the north for a honeymoon when this happened. Do you think that— "

"That they were the ones responsible for the destruction of that family?" the man next to him lifted an eyebrow. "That is an interesting rumor. However, I believe that the person who created these rumors was Q himself." His crisp laughed followed his words. "If you think about it, that man created some rumor that he was already dying. Because of this, his rivals showed their true colors. Even the people in his territory tried to take over. However, he walked out of his house after a few days as if he wasn't wounded at all! That man is very cunning. He wanted to see who will go against him if he pretended to die then destroyed them. Base on my analysis, it looked like he was hiding behind his wife. But in reality, he was actually the one who planned all that.'

"You think that— "

"Of course! I think they planned to kill your father too! They must have hired some special assassins to do it. This is to make us think that they are desperate for control. They wanted to let us see that they are panicking and are trying to take over the other territory. That action showed that they were struggling and are only pretending to be strong on the outside."

Wei Yimu went silent. Becoming the next leader wasn't really his intention. All he wanted was to become a good actor and receive some awards. Who would have thought that one day, someone would inform him he was actually Ghost Rider's son? The changes were too abrupt; He felt like this was all a dream.

Wei Yimu decided to decline and not get involved in this matter, but he figured that he could actually use his new status to help his career. Thus, he agreed to become the new leader and use the money of the territory to produce his first film!

"You are thinking too much, " Lord Olfan said. "I believe, Q was really wounded." And he also believed that this wasn't Q's plans, but that woman of his. Lyca Huang. A genius who graduated college at a young age. She made the bullet that caused waves of panic. She made weapons and poisons without an antidote. Then she disappeared just before the Huang Family collapsed three years ago.

While Lord Olfan didn't know what exactly happened back then, he knew that this Lyca Huang needed to die soon. Or she would continue causing more and more problems for him. "Let me tell you something, gentlemen." He smiled as he made a deliberate pause. Seeing that he already had the two men's attention, he continued.

"As long as you find the right woman to stay by your side, you can have everything in this world." Isn't that what happened to Shen Qui? Lord Olfan sneered. A mere nobody who was favored by a talented genius. Now, that man was enjoying all the privileges that come with having a wife like Lyca Huang.

Of course, this would not last very long. As of tonight, Shen Qui and Lyca would disappear in this world forever.

"Lord, the representative of Miss Huang and Boss Q are here. "

"Representative?" Lord Olfan frowned before his gaze landed on the woman wearing a fiery red dress who was clutching a man's arm. His face instantly darkened. Cleo? Why is she here?
