"I''m crazy?!" Pax took a couple steps back and whipped out his phone. "Fuck off! You''re the crazy ones


    here!"


    Pointing at Hux, he snarled viciously, "You bastard! Have I ever mistreated you?!"


    "No," Hux replied calmly even as he glowered.


    "Then why did you have to usurp me?!" Pax shrieked, his eyes wide in rage. "Why?! Why did you have


    to betray me?!"


    Hux sighed. "Think about it. If you were in my ce, would you really say no to bing the boss?"


    Pax froze at Hux''s words and sighed after a long while. "No."


    "Then you have no right to me me. We always were just colleagues—not partners with fire-forged


    bonds," Hux said coolly. "What I''m doing isn''t betrayal. Only the strong get to lead! You said so


    yourself."


    "Hah!" Pax spat. "Strong? You?! You''re just a footsoldier with nothing going for you aside from dumb


    luck!"


    "And dumb luck is still a form of strength. Admit it, Pax," Hux growled.


    "Enough!" Ned snapped impatiently, stopping Pax''s hysterics as he red coolly at the man. "Think


    carefully about what you want to do, Pax, ande clean."


    "Come clean?!" Pax snarled viciously. "You''re just another lucky prick born to a better family than mine!


    You used your position as an heir of the Janko family to order me around, telling me to step down just


    because you felt like it! I''ve spent years building up the Sunzers, and all of it is gone just because


    you said so! So I''ll have you die for my pleasure!"


    "What are you doing?!" Hux bellowed.


    "What am I doing?!" Pax sneered. "Fine, I won''t hide it—the wine was already poisoned in the first


    ce, and I took the antidote just in case! Hah! Trying to turn the tables on me?! Now die in regret!"


    Everyone turned pale at Pax''s words... aside from Frank.


    Striding forward, he nced at Gigi seemingly nonchntly as he asked quietly, "It''s not that simple, is


    it? That woman isn''t your wife—I''m guessing she''s an assassin you hired off the ckrank."


    "Good eye—that''s a martial elite for you." Pax sneered, shaking his head. "You may be Ascendant


    rank, but you drank a lot, didn''t you? Not even martial elites can survive the nervebreaker! And when


    all of you are unable to fight, Gigi here will cut you into tiny pieces!"


    Then, holding up his phone and waving it smugly to everyone around the table, he gloated, "After that,


    I''ll blow up the hotel and cover my tracks well. You can regret forcing me to step down in hell soon, Mr.


    Janko!

    Then, turning toward Hux, he smiled savagely.


    "Really, Hux? Trying to pit your shallow wit against mine? For shame!" Paxughed. "I will still lead the


    Sunzers after this, while none of you will be remembered!"
