Chapter 268

Rhett had a gun. He had wanted to draw it since a long time ago.

However, it would have taken too long to draw the gun and pull the trigger. Matthew could have dodged his shot by taking a single step behind the wall. He couldn't possibly kill Matthew in such a short time.

That was why he had used ten billion dollars as bait. He had been waiting for Matthew to become overwhelmed with joy after getting the money. He would've then seized the chance to kill him. The ten billion dollars would have remained his.

Regardless, he had miscalculated. The first thing Matthew had done after receiving the money was to attack him.

Matthew sneered. "Ever since I saw you, I've been waiting for the opportunity to attack." He had been worried Rhett would hurt Silas; otherwise he would have attacked long ago. Rhett felt somewhat frustrated. "We were both scheming. My attack was slower."

blade on the wall, and took it down. He unsheathed the blade. The long and narrow blade shone brightly with a cold glint.

Slowly, he placed the tip of the blade against Rhett's leg. He asked, "You said you weren't afraid of death. Is that true?"

Rhett broke out in a cold sweat. He had said that to distract Matthew. There was no way he wasn't afraid of death. He said, "You can ask me anything you want to know."
