Chapter 50: The Second Son Dies in Car Crash

The following day.

That afternoon, the citizens of Opal City were stunned by the tragic news of a fatal car accident. The victim was the son of one of the wealthiest and most influential individuals in Opal City.

Nearly all local and national news outlets covered the incident extensively.

Noah was taken aback by the headline news. With just a glance, it was clear to him that the victim was Jack Donovan.

"Tragic Opal City Accident: Fire Claims Life of Local Driver"

"Devastating Car Blaze Instantly Takes Life of Driver in Opal City"

"Heartbreaking Loss: Donovan Family’s Second Son Dies in Car Crash"

Noah was taken aback by the news. He couldn’t believe they had orchestrated Jack’s death in such a manner.

He expected Matthew to instruct his people to send Jack as a shark’s snack, but he was mistaken.

After a few more minutes, Noah lifted his head from the article and the comment section to glance at Matthew, who was sitting beside the driver as they made their way to the airport.

He wanted to ask him, but could only smile silently, setting aside his curiosity since Alicia was now seated beside him. She might have fainted if she had known he had killed someone yesterday.

Alicia sits quietly, her expression cheerless as she gazes out the window, ignoring Noah. He can only guess her thoughts; she must feel gloomy about their move to the capital.

Not long after, the car finally entered the airport. They weren’t heading to the commercial terminal but to a special terminal just for private jets.

He was amazed to spot the white jet featuring the familiar Golden Phoenix logo on its tail.

As the car came to a stop near the jet park, Matthew’s voice cut through the silence, distracting Noah.

"We are ready to board now, sir..."

Noah responds thoughtfully, "Hmm..." as he glances at Alicia. "Let’s go, Alice..." he smiles, noting her surprised expression as she gazes at the nearby jet park.

As they ascended the plane’s steps, Alicia gently tugged on Noah’s sleeve to catch his attention.

"Brother, we ride this huge jet? How wealthy is your family, bro?"

Alicia is still gathering her composure to fly on a plane for the first time, and her first flight is on a Superjet. Only one percent in her country has such a privilege. She feels very grateful for this opportunity, thanks to her brother.

Noah suppressed a smile as he observed the shock still flash in her gaze.

"Enjoy the trip, little sister," Noah said casually. Yet, the truth was that he, too, was unaware they would be flying on a private jet to the capital—he was just as shocked as she was.

A few days after inheriting Anderson Morgan’s wealth, Noah experiences a sense of reality for the first time as he steps aboard the luxurious jet he had only seen online or on television.

Noah glanced at Alicia, sitting alone in the back row, curious about her surroundings. He left her alone and took out his cell phone to check on Jason.

Since last night, he hadn’t received any calls from him, and now he was curious whether he had managed to fly with them.

But just as Noah was about to dial Jason’s number, he appeared in the doorway.

"Jason, you can finally join us..." Noah was thrilled to see him show up at last. He had been worried about him, especially since his father was still recovering from surgery.

"Yes, I’m glad I was able to leave my father in a good place," Jason replied, explaining that Matthew was helping him assign someone to help his father.

Noah glanced at Matthew, who sat alone in the front row, seemingly busy on a call. He felt grateful that his assistant knew how to handle things without him having to ask.

"Alright, Jason, feel free to pick your favorite spot to sit..."

"I will sit with Alice behind," Jason replied before leaving him alone.

After observing Jason, who was now settling next to his sister, Noah took a moment to check his Wealth Management System.

Too many thoughts were now flooding his mind, leaving him confused, as his system felt more like a punishment system than a wealth management one.

The purpose of owning this system always puzzles him.

Since the first day he acquired it, his life’s financial aspects have improved exponentially.

Still, the remarkable gain comes with some consequences. One of the most significant consequences is that he encounters danger almost daily.

He tried to ask Edgar and Matthew a few times, but they didn’t provide him with an answer that could help him understand or get the response he wanted from them.

They both always said.

"Sir, you’ll discover everything once you reach the capital and command center. That’s why you should fly there as soon as possible!"

Noah was unaware of what awaited him there. Yet, he could sense that the ever-looming danger might be even more perilous and powerful within.

This realization left him feeling nervous yet excited.

’System, display my status profile...’ Noah whispered.

Immediately, a series of words appears in his view.
