Love at the Wrong Table [On-Going] - Chapter 2049
Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 2049-“These so–called pieces of evidence might be enough to nail an ordinary suspect, but to take down your brother and Lannister? I’m afraid it’s still far from enough,” Emmanuel said with a slight smirk, holding up the phone.
“If I planned to rely on the police and the law to take down Maxwell, I’d have died a hundred times by now. I would never be able to defeat him in this lifetime,” Magnus replied with a disdainful smile. “Cops need solid evidence to make a case, but you don’t, do you?” “You’re right. I believe Maxwell was behind this,” Emmanuel nodded. “So, what’s your angle? You want to use me to kill Maxwell?” Magnus chuckled. “When dealing with someone as sharp as you, there’s no point in pretending, nor could I even if I tried. It’s better to be upfront. Taking might time, Hight Place out Maxwell benefits you, too, doesn’t it?” “What makes you say that?” Emmanuel asked, straight to the point. “Maxwell yied to kill my apprentice. Neither I nor the Chapman family will let that slide, but taking down Maxwell would bring a mountain of trouble from the Zelinsky family,” “With my help, you won’t have any trouble at all,” Magnus said confidently. “All I need is your strength.” “You hate Maxwell that much? From what I know of the Zelinsky family’s history, even if he dies, you might not end up in control of the family,” Emmanuel pointed out.
“The grudge I have against Maxwell is one that can never be forgiven,” Right Time, Right Place Magnus‘ smile vanished, replaced by a cold, vicious look in his eyes. “There were four male heirs in the Zelinsky family, but now only Maxwell and I remain. My mother had a strained relationship with the family, and we were olated. After she left, it was just Hattie and me stuck in that house. If it weren’t for our quick thinking and a bit of luck, Maxwell would have killed us long ago, “That man hides behind a sheep’s smile but is more vicious than any wolf.
Look here!” Magnus said, lifting his shirt to reveal a gruesome scar.
“Maxwell once tried to kill me the same way he went after Nathan. I was just eleven, fresh out of elementary school, and he set up a ‘runaway tiger‘ from the zoo near my campsite, nearly getting me killed. I won’t even start on the other incidents. Hattie’s suffered at his hands, too, as well as from other members of the family.
Right Time, Right Place “If I hadn’t intentionally drawn attention to myself and made waves among Zovince’s elite, I might have quietly disappeared as well. Because of my background, defeating Maxwell openly within the family is impossible. But I’ll ever let someone like him keep getting away with everything he’s done.” Magnus‘ candid words struck a chord with Emmanuel, who wasn’t used to hearing such heartfelt confessions from him. Still, it wasn’t a bad feeling.
“Fine. You set it up. I trust your ability to predict the right time and place to take down Maxwell,” Emmanuel agreed. “But if it’s not the right moment, I won’t act.” “Thank you,” Magnus replied calmly, expressing his gratitude without any excess emotion before driving away. For him, other than lacking physical strength, everything else was child’s play.
