Lucius hated ra and Dn more than anyone else in the world. Losing both his sons because of them left him seething with a rage he could barely contain- sometimes he wished he could tear Dn apart with his bare hands.
Everyone knew how much Dn loved ra. So now, with Dn gone, if Lucius could ruin the woman he loved in the worst way possible, he knew not even hell would give Dn peace. Just imagining it filled Lucius with a twisted kind of satisfaction.
"I heard all about your little stunt at the g," Lucius said, his lips curling into a sneer. "Didn''t peg you for such a fighter. But I''ve brought thirty men with me today. You really think you can take us all? Ever since Dn died, Palm Bay went to pieces. The staff scattered like rats from a sinking ship-there''s barely anyone left guarding the ce."
ra''s heart pounded so hard she felt it in her chest. He wasn''t wrong-Palm Bay used to be locked down tight, with security everywhere, even in the shadows. Someone like Lucius would never have gotten in. But after Dn''s ident, everyone had just... disappeared.
She blinked back tears and red at Lucius. "Palm Bay belongs to Dn. Even if he really is dead, you have no right to touch it."
Luciusughed, cold and cruel. "You really don''t get the Ferguson family rules, do you? Palm Bay doesn''t belong to Dn-it belongs to the family heir. Dn''s gone, so the heir isn''t him anymore. Which means Palm Bay is ours again. The staff will all be gone by tonight. And you, ra-tsk, Michael was right. Everyone''s dying to know what it''s like to have the woman Dn slept with. Even if I let you go, you''ll see how many people are waiting for you outside."
He threw his head back andughed, savoring every second. Who would''ve thought Dn would end up like this?
Thewyers behind him stepped up. "Ms. ra, ording to thew, Palm Bay now belongs to the Ferguson family. Mr. Dn has passed away. We need you to leave the premises and note back."
ra''s hands balled into fists. "Who says he''s dead? He''s just missing. When hees back, he''ll still be the CEO of Ferguson Corporation."
Before the words were even out of her mouth, Justin spoke up. He wasn''t as smug as Lucius, but the ambition in his eyes was obvious.
"ra, quit kidding yourself. You know how bad Dn''s condition was yesterday. After that crash, not even a miracle could''ve saved him."
ra didn''t hesitate. She kicked the coffee table over and charged straight at Lucius.

Lucius jumped back, panic all over his face. He looked desperately at his bodyguards. "What are you waiting for? Grab her! If she won''t behave make her pay for it. Tonight She''s yours! s
All thirty bodyguards rushed toward ra.
Ryan and Uno were still waiting in the car outside-she''d told them to stay there
when she came in, so she was on her own.
But ra wasn''t scared. Not even a little.
In less than ten minutes, every one of Lucius''s men was down, groaning on the floor with broken arms or legs.
Lucius went white as a sheet. He tried to make a run for it.
ra''s foot shot out and sent a porcin vase flying. It smashed into the back of Lucius''s head.<fne2f4> For more chapters visit find·novel</fne2f4>
Blood poured down his neck. He clutched his head, terror in his eyes. "ra, what are you doing? You wouldn''t dare kill me! This is a civilized country!"
ra walked toward him, grabbed a sharp piece of broken vase off the floor, and aimed it at his throat.
Lucius screamed, "Mitch! What are you just standing there for? Help me!"
Lucius was the third son in the
family, and Justin was supposed to be his ally, but Lucius could tell
Justin was just waiting for ra to
finish him off so he could swoop i and take the spoils. s
Desperation twisted Lucius''s face. He shouted, "ra, you really think I set up that truck driver all by myself? Justin helped me! We both wanted Dn dead. If you''reing after me you better take Justin down too!" s

Justin''s brow furrowed. He red at Lucius, furious at how stupid he was.
