CHAPTER 429: CHAPTER 429: VICTOR GRANT’S GU

Logan Vance smiled smugly, placing the white porcelain bottle in Victor Grant’s hand, patiently explaining to him: "It’s simple, all you need to do is sprinkle this stuff on ordinary vines, and those vines will come to life. However, if you want to activate their bloodthirsty factor, you’ll have to release the incense from this burner so that the vines smell it, and they’ll go crazy."

Victor Grant took the incense burner from Logan Vance’s hand and mockingly said, "Last time, you made it all mysterious with incantations and dancing. I really thought you had some great ability. Turns out it’s all smoke and mirrors, and the incense alone does the trick?"

Logan Vance was embarrassed by Victor Grant’s remark and forced an explanation: "I naturally don’t need such trouble. You’re an ordinary person; can you control those vines without the incense?"

Wanting to avoid further entanglement with Victor Grant, Logan Vance quickly raised his hand to check the time and intentionally told him: "In just over ten minutes, Vincent Vance will come with his men. You’d better move Maxwell Vance to another place first and then lure Vincent Vance for the kill. Otherwise, if Vincent Vance dies in your Grant Family, May Morgan certainly won’t spare you."

That’s true. Victor Grant felt Logan Vance’s words made sense. Since it needed to be done discreetly, it was best to completely sever ties.

"Someone, bring out that bastard Maxwell Vance and shove him into the car with me!" Victor Grant thought of a perfect place for murder and instructed the bodyguards next to him.

Seeing Victor Grant start to get busy, Logan Vance was satisfied enough to put on his sunglasses, then slipped into his car and sped away.

Victor Grant turned his head to look at Logan Vance’s quickly disappearing car, squinting his eyes.

Honestly, he didn’t trust Logan Vance, that bastard, and was always wary of being set up, but he was too eager to kill Vincent Vance. After all, as long as he loved May Morgan for another day, Vincent Vance would remain a thorn in his side, painful if not removed.

If he could take the lives of both Vincent Vance and Maxwell Vance at the same time, no matter the cost, he was willing to accept it.

Victor Grant quickly had Maxwell Vance taken to a villa in the suburbs and monitored. Then, before he left, he scattered the powder Logan Vance gave him over the villa’s surrounding vine plants.

After sprinkling the white powder, the vines started to twist as though alive, startling Victor Grant and the others.

However, these vines only twisted for about a minute before settling down. Victor Grant studied them carefully but saw no extraordinary changes in them; they remained just as they were, without becoming larger, thicker, or more brutal as the ones Logan Vance controlled last time.

He couldn’t help but doubt whether Logan Vance was playing him, but reconsidered that Logan Vance had no reason to do that. Firstly, more than deceiving him, Logan Vance certainly wanted to use his hand to kill Vincent Vance, an indisputable fact. Secondly, if his intricate plot was merely to deceive him, what would be the purpose? To save Maxwell Vance? But why would Logan Vance offend him for a mere Maxwell Vance?

Weighing all options, Victor Grant finally decided not to bother anymore. He left Maxwell Vance at the villa, waiting for Vincent Vance’s men to come. If the vines didn’t work, he still had the opportunity to recapture that wretch and kill or cripple him.

If the things Logan Vance gave him turned out to be real, then Vincent Vance, this place will be the best resting place for your ghost.

Thinking about May Morgan’s safety and also because Victor Grant couldn’t be present at the scene, he handed the incense box to Carter, someone capable. He instructed him: "Take this box; if Vincent Vance comes with men to rescue this woman, open the box, and his people will be trapped."

"Yes, got it!" Carter smartly assured him as he took the item from Victor Grant.

After briefing Carter, Victor Grant hurriedly drove away, heading straight to the hospital.

He rushed back to the hospital and, having wasted quite some time, saw that May Morgan was glaring at him with a venomous look.

From when Heather Holt called Victor Grant until he arrived, it took over an hour. During this period, what exactly did Victor Grant do? Had he already fought Vincent Vance? What was Vincent Vance’s current status? Seeing him return unscathed, did it mean Vincent Vance...

May Morgan couldn’t bear to think, her mind in chaos. What if Vincent Vance was dead? Victor Grant is so ruthless, and Vincent Vance is unprotected without Jacob Jennings. What if Victor Grant killed him?

"Victor Grant, why are you so late? Where did you go? Did you fight Vincent Vance?" May Morgan grabbed Victor Grant’s wrist, bitterly demanding answers.

Victor Grant was worried about May Morgan all the way there, only to find she was perfectly fine at the hospital, which angered him somewhat. He knew it was his mother who called him back because May Morgan urged her to say that, or else why would his mother lie about May Morgan being in danger?

"You’re okay, aren’t you?" Victor Grant, somewhat angry, pushed away May Morgan’s hand from his wrist and coldly questioned her: "Did you deceive my mom into calling me back? Was your purpose to stop me from killing Vincent Vance?"

Seeing Victor Grant getting agitated with May Morgan again, Heather Holt hurried over to persuade him: "Victor, how can you speak to May Morgan like this? I saw she was unwell, looking very pale, and I wasn’t comfortable. That’s why I asked you to come over, not because of May Morgan."

Heather Holt was still defending herself, which greatly touched May Morgan’s heart. She knew that Victor Grant wouldn’t listen to any explanations now since he was angry, but Heather Holt’s words, perhaps he would take them seriously.

"Aunt Jennings, I asked you to call Victor over for his own good. You don’t understand, Victor caught Maxwell Vance, and Vincent Vance certainly won’t let it go. If they fight, both will be severely wounded, playing right into Logan Vance’s hands who’s secretly orchestrating all this."

Heather Holt listened, bewildered and confused. Who was Logan Vance? Why would he be the mastermind behind the whole thing?

"May Morgan, can you explain more clearly? Who is Logan Vance, and why is he doing this?"

May Morgan looked up at Victor Grant and deliberately said to him: "Let Victor explain it to you. I think he’s clear-minded."

Victor Grant was clear-minded. He also knew that Maxwell Vance, an ordinary woman, could not have Poison without Logan Vance directing her to do so.

But since he was secretly cooperating with Logan Vance, he naturally could not betray him.
