Chapter 327
Then, Andrius flicked his finger.
Several silver needles, as thin as a strand of hair, shot toward Louis’s body.
Louis had a bad feeling about this. He instinctively asked, “W–what did you do to me?”
“You will soon find out.” Andrius smiled meaningfully.
“Aaaaaargh!”
At the next moment, Louis screamed excruciatingly. He felt a terrible itch all over his body, and it was not on his skin. It came from his organs! The deepest part of his body!
It felt like he was being bitten by ten thousand ants inside.
“Aaaaaaargh!”
Louis tried to scratch himself, but there was no way he could reach inside his body. He twirled and tossed on the ground.
His friends were horrified and were at a loss for words and actions.
Thunk!
Thunk!
Thunk!
Suddenly, Louis started to knock his head on the wall as if it would cure the itch in his body. Each knock was stronger and harder than the previous. His head bled profusely and soon, he slowed down as his eyes lost focus. His body slowly collapsed on the ground.
The severe concussion from the knocks made him a vegetable.
By then, Andrius had left the abandoned factory with Fatty Frank, Dr. Artemis, and the others.
Meanwhile, Dean Mitchell, the chairman of Simon–Tooke, stayed in Jade Gate Mansion District while he was in Sumeria.
“What did you say? My son? Louis is in a vegetative state? Andrius Moonshade from New Moon Corporation?”
The call from the hospital shocked Dean with the news. His phone slipped out of his hand and fell on the floor.
“Andrius Moonshade! F*ck! Andrius Moonshade!” Dean roared. He threw a punch at the mirror beside him, shattering it into pieces. “I will f*cking kill you! I will rip you apart from limb to limb and hang your torso in front of Simon–Tooke’s entrance!
“F************ck!” Dean went berserk as he roared at the sky.
“M–Mr. Chairman…”
A servant knocked on the door and said timidly, “Sir, your godson, Cloud Forger, has arrived.” “Godfather, what happened?”
Cloud heard his godfather’s shouts before he came into the room. He asked with concern as soon as he stepped in.
“My son,
Louis, your godbrother, became brain damaged because of Andrius Moonshade,” Dean squeezed the words out of his gritted teeth. The killing intent in his eyes and tone was intense.
“Cloud, do you have any idea how to destroy New Moon Corporation immediately? I want Andrius Moonshade dead, or else I won’t be able to face my son!” Dean looked at his godson with a gloomy expression.
“Godfather, we must put that aside first,” Cloud said as he shook his head.
Before Dean could blame him for not showing enough concern for his godbrother, Cloud explained, “Our priority now is your birthday. We must invite the military governer, Severus Sano, to attend the event.
“We can work on Louis’s condition at any time, but if we are unable to get close to the military governor now, we will be placed in a passive position in the future.
“With the military governor on our side, only then can we strengthen our foundation here and reach new heights. Until then, we can deal with Celestial Enterprise and New Moon Corporation altogether, and it will be a grand victory for us.
Dean slightly recovered from his gloomy expression.

In fact, not only in Florence, one must pave the path to wealth with meticulous planning and hard work in any country or location.
Rich businessmen like Dean and Cloud should focus on paving the path that led to the military governor and the mayor.
“You are right, Cloud.”
After he regained his composure, Dean asked eagerly, “Do you have any idea now?”
“I have.” Cloud grinned confidently. “I’ve gotten news that the donation from Celestial Enterprise is being embezzled by the Martyr’s Society.”
Dean raised his brow with interest. His expression looked brighter than before.
“The military governor must care a lot about the deceased soldiers‘ families, so Celestial Enterprise will definitely deal with it with all means necessary.
“If we can use it to our advantage, we will be able to win the military governor’s favor. Cloud and Dean exchanged a sly look before they both grinned viciously.
