Correct, but to put one under Veritaserum requires that you have sufficient information as to ask the question. And I don't believe that Veritaserum is described as forcing the volunteering of information which has not been requested of the subject.
"What do you know about Potter that he wishes to keep secret?"
Honestly, that doesn't map very well to my model of MoR!Lucius.
It would be an admission of defeat in terms of manipulation; and it would also disrupt his plans/designs to create a worthy successor in Draco.
