Chapter 366

After he left Peaceful Medical Center, Nestor quickly got into a car. The

driver was a pale young man with handsome features who had a layer of th

ick makeup and bright red lipstick. It was hard to identify his gender at

first glance.

"Who would have

thought that Logan Rhys would have gone into hiding in such a pathetic me

dical center for the past ten years that he'd been missing, Mr. Wilkins?

And it seems like he's still very much hung up on the incident back then.

Should I put an end to him when the opportunity arises so that we won't

get into any trouble with him in the future?" The pale man had a shrill v

oice that carried a hint of malice.

"We can't kill him yet," Nestor said calmly with his eyes closed. "So lon

g as Rufus is still in power, nobody will be able to harm him."

"Every mortal goes through life and death, Sir. I promise I'll make his d

eath look so natural that nobody will suspect anything amiss." The pale m

an chuckled venomously.

"Don't be silly. Things aren't as simple as you make them out to be." Nes

tor shook his head. "Do you know why Rufus willingly stayed cooped up in

West Lucozia serving our master when he has such impressive skills and a

troop of 500,000 men at his disposal?"

"Of course, it's because he's intimidated by our majestic and powerful ma

ster!" The pale man declared proudly.

"It's partially true that he's intimidated, but more importantly, it's be

cause he's worried about the potential consequences." Nestor gave a sligh

t smile. "As long as the so–

called Kirin is around, Rufus will never take action, no matter how ambit

ious he is. On the contrary, Rufus would be an uncontrollable beast with

nothing left to

lose once his son was dead. And when that day comes, Stonia's destiny wil

l be rewritten."

When the Princess Consort of West Lucozia died a decade ago, Rufus had at

tempted to deploy his armies from the borders several times. But in the e

nd, he always held back.

Was the reason

behind it because he feared death? Or was it because he feared the King?

What a joke! The true reason behind his retreat was to protect Logan. Sim

ply put, the influential and great Prince of Theswe only had one last pre

cious treasure left, and that was his son, Logan. If anything were to hap

pen to him, mayhem would break out in Stonia.

"Sir, I'm just worried that when Logan returns

to West Lucozia and inherits the throne, it'll bring great disaster upon

us!" The pale man reminded Nestor.

"Hah! The so–

called Kirin that people claimed to be an unrivaled genius is just a rasc

al who's still wet behind the ears. He's impulsive and easily angered; he

's utterly transparent. Even if a person like him inherits the throne, he

'd just be a reckless man who does not warrant our fear. I'm certain. tha

t once Rufus Rhys dies, the entire Rhys family, and even the whole of Wes

t Lucozia, will fall apart and end up in a mess!" Nestor smiled vilely.

"But Rufus is only in his fifties. What if he still has a long life ahead

of him? Will we continue living in fear

for another twenty or thirty years to come?" The pale man frowned.

"It wouldn't take so long. Just wait. Things will soon come to an end." A

meaningful smirk crept

up on Nestor's face. The master had waited for ten years; it was ten year

s' worth of laying out their tactics. It was almost time to carry out the

ir plan and reap the fruits of their labor.

When Dustin woke up the next morning, the medical center had

been thoroughly cleaned, both inside and out. All traces of the fight tha

t took place the night prior had vanished, and all relevant information h

ad been hidden away.

Everything was as calm and peaceful as before..

"Lad, your father has returned to West Lucozia." Gregory walked down the

stairs toward him. As opposed to his usual drunken state, he seemed excep

tionally sober today.
