Chapter 26
Kristin realized she was increasingly unable to see through Magnus.
The Four Oceans Gang disintegrated, Xavier was arrested, and various signs seemed to have no connection with outsiders.
However, Kristin’s strong sense of intuition seemed to inform her that this series of events was definitely related to Magnus.
“How did Magnus and Theodore end up having a conflict at tonight’s business networking banquet?” She pondered
Julia was furious for him as she wondered, “What was the relationship between them?”
Everything about him made Kristin feel Magnus was full of mystery.
Thinking of this, she could not help but glance sideways at Magnus.
“What’s up? Did I get even more handsome?” Magnus joked with a cheeky smile as he turned the steering wheel.
“Pfft!”
Upon seeing this, Kristin could not hold in her laughter as well.
Magnus was about to light a cigarette when he suddenly slowed down his car. Two luxury cars had appeared ahead, driving at the same speed.
It was clear the person in front wanted to force him to stop.
With that, the corner of Magnus‘ mouth curved into a sneer, and he stopped his car as the other party wished for.
As expected, the two large Mercedes–Benz cars stopped one after the other.
Kristin’s pupils constricted. “Could it be Theodore?”
Magnus sneered. “I’ll go down and take a look. Stay in the car, and don’t get out.”
“Okay,” Kristin obediently replied.
After experiencing the Four Oceans Gang surrounding them, she blindly trusted Magnus‘ abilities.
As soon as he got out of the car, Magnus lit the cigarette in his mouth and started puffing away.
Soon, four to five burly men in black clothing got out of two cars, one after the other. They wore sunglasses late at night as if showing off to others that they were bodyguards.
One of the leading men approached, “You are Mr. Kramer, right?”
Magnus asked coldly, “Who sent you?”
“Mr. Kramer, our leader would like to see you,” the man said, making a gesture of invitation.
“Leader?” Magnus wondered. He was taken aback.
He initially thought it was Theodore, but he guessed wrong.
“I’m not interested in who your leader was. If he has something to say, he should have come by himself. If not, you should let me pass immediately, or else…” Magnus said as his eyes promptly turned cold, revealing a murderous intent.
These outrageous words made the man frown and become more alert at the same time,
Intuition told the man that the guy in front of him was very dangerous.

Just then, the door of the Mercedes–Benz opened with a loud “clank,” revealing a pair of long and gorgeous legs.
This was then followed by the clacking sounds of high heels.
Magnus directly looked over and saw a woman in a bright red mesh dress slowly approaching
Upon closer inspection, he noticed the woman had a slender and graceful figure. Her delicate arms were proportionately shaped, and she had a pair of smooth, exquisite legs.
The woman had her hair in a bun, a pair of pitch black, clear eyes, and soft, full red lips, which made her look incredibly sensual.
“What an exceptional beauty!” Magnus could not help but exclaim inwardly.
“Are you Magnus?” The woman’s voice was somewhat cold.
Magnus did not speak as the cigarette hung in between his lips. He intently observed the other person as if admiring a piece of art.
The man immediately shouted, “Do you want to die?”
Huh?
Magnus heard the voice and looked over coldly, saying, “What did you say?”
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
“Jonas, step back,” the woman suddenly ordered.
“Ms. Caesar!” The man wanted to remind her of something, but seeing the woman’s cold gaze, he immediately closed his mouth and respectfully stepped back.
“Allow me to introduce myself. I am Scarlett Caesar from the Cerulean Red Sect.” The woman extended a delicate hand.
Magnus looked at her with great interest but showed no sign of wanting to shake hands.
This scene made Jonas even more displeased.
Scarlett’s expression also changed slightly, but she still did not get angry.
She retracted her hand and said coldly, “Today, I came for a specific matter.”
“Oh? I don’t think I know you. What brings you here?” Magnus became interested.
“We have rules in the Cerulean Red Sect; those who dare touch heroin will not be let off easily. The Four Oceans Gang is an affiliated gang of the Cerulean Red Sect, yet they dared to break our rules behind our backs. Based on this, Xavier should have died, but…” Scarlett trailed off but then changed the subject. “Four Oceans Gang made a mistake, so it’s up to the Cerulean Red Sect to enforce the rules and deal with them. It’s not up to an outsider like you. to interfere.”
Upon hearing this, Magnusneered and said, “Xavier disbanded the Four Oceans Gang of his own accord. As for his arrest, that’s even less of my
concern.”
Scarlett stared at him and said assertively, “In the southeast region, no one can hide anything from me if I want to know something.”
“Is that so?”
Magnus leaned in close to her ear and replied casually, “I admit I did it. So what?”
Seeing his arrogant demeanor, Scarlett frowned and said, “Heh, I knew it was you!”
“Hmm?” Magnus was taken aback yet again.
“It turns out that this woman isn’t even sure if Xavier was responsible for the matter. She was just trying to get information from me earlier.
Chapter 26
Regardless, it doesn’t inatter anymore.
So what if I admitted it? Do I need to be afraid?”
Scarlett said nothing else. She glanced at him thoughtfully and then walked straight back to h
It seemed like she was getting ready to leave.
Magnus was somewhat puzzled. He did not understand why the woman did not take action, thinking, “Wasn’t she supposed to settle the score for the
Four Oceans Gang?”
Scarlett naturally would not let Magnus off the hook.
After all, the Four Oceans Gang was disintegrated, and this matter concerned the reputation of the Cerulean Red Sect.
As the leader of the Cerulean Red Sect, if she acted as if nothing had happened, the subordinates would inevitably become dissatisfied.
However, Scarlett had always been cautious in her actions.
Magnus was able to force Xavier to disband the Four Oceans Gang single–handedly, which showed that he was no ordinary person.
She would not act recklessly before she had a clear understanding of the other party’s background.
At that moment.
The roar of engines of four or five sports cars could be heard as they approached from a distance.
In no time, those sports cars blocked Magnus and Scarlett’s cars.
Next, the front door of a Lamborghini opened, and a well–dressed man wearing sunglasses stepped out.
Unlike bodyguards who wore sunglasses, this man wore them at night purely to show off.
From the other sports cars, five or six strong and fierce–looking men got out one after another. Just by looking at them, it was clear that they were not to be messed with.
“It’s the Hedd Gang’s young leader, lan Carter.” Jonas recognized the visitor and respectfully introduced him to Scarlett.
“Oh?”
Scarlett stood in front of the Mercedes–Benz while watching lan approach step by step.
Jonas and a few others surrounded Scarlett, protecting her in the middle.
“Stand down,” Scarlett said discontentedly.
Although Hedd Gang was powerful, this was still the southeast region, the Cerulean Red Sect’s home turf. There was no way they could lose to Hedd Gang’s young leader in terms of aura.
“Yes, ma’am!” Jopás and the others quickly withdrew.
Scarlett stared at lan, trying to figure out what tricks this guy had up his sleeve.
However, lan was not here to see her. Rather, he strode toward Magnus and shouted with a grin, “Boss!”
Scarlett froze.
The young leader of Hedd Gang called Magnus
