Bloodline Reckoning: The System Made Me Filthy Rich-Chapter 85: I Plan To Kill Him!

Once the laughter subsides, Noah turns back to see Jason again.

He smiled faintly at him before responding, ’Jason, unfortunately, I’m not part of that superhero group. But I am powerful too. There are many things you don’t know about me yet. But you will. And maybe you’ll be surprised even more later.’

’Did Matthew and Edgar also speak to you like this?’ Jason asked again, glancing briefly at Matthew and Edgar before returning his eyes to Noah.

’Only Matthew, because Edgar does not deserve it. Not yet. Because his loyalty is still more toward my dad than toward me.’

’What the... So, is this real?’

’Hmm. Jason, you need to put aside your curiosity for now. I promise to explain more details to you later. Now, we need to discuss Lucas Graham with the other, shall we?’

Jason was too confused and amazed by Noah now, and he could only nod slightly in response.

"Alright, guys, about Lucas Graham... Surprisingly, he is my target. And I plan to kill him!"

"Cough! Cough!" Jason nearly choked as he looked at Noah in disbelief. He thought Noah was insane. How could he want to kill a military general?

"Come on, Jason, could you please stop interrupting?" Matthew chuckled, shaking his head with a smile before continuing, "We need to discuss something important here, man. Or else we all will be trapped in this room till dawn."

"Sorry, man. You guys can continue—"

Jason pressed his lips together. He needed to suppress his shock and confusion and listen quietly to their conversation, wondering why Noah suddenly hated Lucas Graham so much that he even considered killing someone powerful in this country.

Now—

All eyes are on Noah, watching him with curiosity as they await his response.

However, he remains silent and seems to be in a trance.

Edgar was the first to break the silence.

"Sir, how do you plan to kill someone who held a high military position with a strong presence of security details like Lucas Graham?"

"I know you are also powerful, sir," Matthew also added, with concern, "But Lucas Graham is someone you cannot underestimate; he is one of Mr. President’s closest friends."

Noah stared at Edgar and Matthew with a calm smile in return. He understands their concern, even though he shares the same worry as they do. But he has trust in Zoe.

"I need to earn Lucas Graham’s trust. Last night, I told him about the Morgan Family’s terrible treatment of me and that everything on the internet was fake. So far, he believes me, and I want to maintain that trust."

Noah decided to approach Lucas Morgan without rushing. One of his ideas was to do it through some business connections.

He glanced at Matthew and asked, "I need to cooperate with him in business. What business does that old man have?"

"He runs many successful businesses, but only a few are publicly known, and I believe you are aware of them too, right?"

"Hmm, I know. Shipping company, right!" Noah asked, tapping his finger on the sofa’s armrest as he tried to plan how to approach Lucas Graham through business quickly.

"True," Matthew smiled faintly before continuing, "but what many people didn’t know is that he actually owns a firearms business... and mining operations in a few third-world countries."

Noah was no longer surprised to hear that. He could guess that people like Lucas Graham, who have held power in the country for many years, must have huge businesses related to their careers.

"What do you want me to do?" Matthew asked, a slight frown appearing on his forehead.

"We should connect to them through their business. Oh, and Matt, I just remembered—Golden Phoenix is also involved in the weapons industry, isn’t it? It would be better if we had a connection in that area. I know the old man loves that kind of thing."

Noah knows that Golden Phoenix Group owns a similar business, but they operate separately. Only a few individuals are aware of the connection to Golden Phoenix.

"Yes, we are also involved in the modern weapon industry..."

Matthew’s shining eyes became more noticeable as he continued to explain.

"Sir, they approached us a few years ago, but we didn’t pursue their business cooperation because they were too small for us. However, if you instruct us to establish a relationship with them, I will notify them about it..."

"Yes, you can do that..." Noah was excited.

But he didn’t rush to execute his plan—to eliminate Lucas Graham—because he was still powerless, and luckily, there was no deadline. Zoe only mentions that the faster he limited that man, the better.

"Consider it done, sir." Matthew nods slightly to reassure Noah.

Noah simply responds to him with a slight nod before turning his attention to Edgar.

"About the Morgan family, how do things happen there?"

"Sir, the media has already shared what might happen between the two families. They could still go through with the divorce, and Jared Morgan is likely to suffer a lot of losses. There’s a chance he may lose his fortune and custody of his children..."

Edgar took a deep breath before continuing, "And, not only that, but the negative news about Morgan is getting out there, which is definitely a big blow to all their businesses. And now both your uncles and aunts are divided..."

Noah was pleased to hear that. He managed to keep his uncle Jared busy and at least distract him for a while.

He was aware of how greedy all his uncles and aunts were with their wealth and power.

Although he had met them a few times, none of them ever welcomed him sincerely into the family, not even his grandpa. The only relative who seemed to show slight kindness was his grandma.

"Which one?" Noah asked curiously. novelbuddy-cσ๓

"Rachel and Tanya were distraught with their brothers and worried about the company, while Jared and Andrew only concerned themselves with their own family issues."

A gentle laugh escaped Noah’s lips. He had already expected that, especially from the aunties who don’t have many serious personal matters.

Dealing with those two aunties was never a problem for him; they are not a threat to him.

"But sir, if your uncle and grandpa discover you’re now siding with the Grahams, they might cause some trouble for you—" Edgar added.
