Chapter 1000

Magnus sat alone in the car, waiting.

After a while, Blake adjusted his pants and walked out of the alley, feeling somewhat unsatisfied as he

exclaimed, “Damn, I didn’t expect this run-down town to have such an amazing place! The women may

not be stunning, but their skills are quite impressive!”

Seeing him approach, Magnus pushed up his glasses and asked with a half-smile, “Finished with your

charitable work?”

“Haha, if you hadn’t been waiting for me at the entrance, I would have planned to continue until

tomorrow morning! I, Casanova, am still in my prime. Helping seven fallen women in one night is no

problem!” Blake proudly declared.

“Come on, Emmanuel acquired the mine and improved the lives of thousands of people. Now that’s

true charity! You’re far behind him!” Magnus teased.

Blake’s veins immediately bulged. “Magnus, are you looking down on me? I may not be able to win a

fight against him, but when it comes to charity, I will never lose to him! He saves men, and I save

women. We both contribute to society! Why should I be considered inferior to him?”

Magnus shook his head and smiled. He figured if the sky were to fall, this unattractive man’s mouth

could probably hold it up!

“Alright, get in the car!”

“Magnus, where are we going now?”

“To set up a showdown between you and Emmanuel!”

“What?!”-

Blake, who was about to start the car, was so startled that he stepped on the brake pedal forcefully, but

he accidentally hit the accelerator, causing the car to speed away,

“We’re going to fight so soon?”

“Soon? Weren’t you asking me this morning why I didn’t let you take action last night?”

“Oh, right!” Blake exclaimed excitedly, “Last night, three groups of people attacked the Quillen family.

With the advantage of numbers, I could have easily defeated Emmanuel!”

The unattractive man had thick skin and still spoke with confidence.

After all, he never prétended to be a master.

In a fight, winning was the only honorable outcome. Losing was just an excuse!

“No, even if you had taken action last night, there would have only been a 90 percent chance of

defeating Emmanuel!”

Magnús lowered his eyes, and a glint of determination flashed in his gaze. “But the next time you take

action, I can guarantee you a 99.9 percent chance of defeating Emmanuel!”

“Haha, that’s amazing!”

Blake grinned.

Blake grinned.

He knew that Magnus never liked to say 100 percent because, in the eyes of a smart person like him,

nothing was ever 100 percent certain.

He also understood why Magnus didn’t let him take action last night. After all, Emmanuel was incredibly

powerful. Even if they took a defensive stance, it would be difficult for anyone to keep him at bay. Killing

the other members of the Quillen family was not their objective for this trip either.

Furthermore, Magnus had already anticipated that Mr. Harrison’s men would arrive quickly last night,

which was why they had been hiding all along.

Soon, the two of them arrived at a cottage in the field.

Avery was already waiting for them there.

When she saw Magnus, her gaze was no longer filled with arrogance, but rather, she knelt down on

one knee, her face filled with reverence as she said, “Mr. Magnus, I finally understand why my sister

served you wholeheartedly! Your wisdom is truly unparalleled. Emmanuel did appear before me within

three days. If it weren’t for my incompetence, the Heart of the Sun would have been in my hands last

night!”

Magnus smiled faintly.

He had already figured out Avery’s character. This woman was very proud, and after her failed

operation last night, she would never think it was due to his incorrect deduction. Instead, she would

shoulder the responsibility herself!

“No need to blame yourself. All you need to do is wait here patiently. Tomorrow night, Emmanuel and

the Heart of the Sun will come to us willingly!”

“What?!”

Magnus’ words surprised Avery greatly.

Blake also paused for a moment, then burst into laughter. “Magnus, I didn’t know you knew fortune-

telling too. We just wait here, and Emmanuel will willingly come to his death?”

Magnus nodded confidently. “This is not fortune-telling, but precise deduction and reasonable

arrangement. Just trust me!”

“Alright, I believe you, Mr. Magnus!”

Avery’s attitude toward Magnus had completely changed. Her eyes were even filled with anticipation.

She firmly believed that Emmanuel would come with the Heart of the Sun to meet his demise tomorrow

night!

The iron ore mine was located on a continuous mountain range.

Alton’s body would be buried on the large mountain, and the funeral would be held today.
