“But make sure you remember my surname—Gillette!”Darius raised an eyebrow at his words. Then, he bowed his head and lowered his eyes to the ground. It didn’t conceal his laughter, though. The board member in his fifties glared daggers at him—he was a shareholder of the Gillette Group, and it was his main source of income. Now, however, Darius had ruined everything. No one would allow such a person to continue appearing before themselves.The board member in his fifties looked at Darius with unbridled hatred, but Darius merely shrugged and smiled. Instead of making him look more approachable, it only made him seem inexplicably colder and crueler, and none dared look at him aside from the dark-suited board member who was still on the ground and the board member in his fifties.The dark-suited board member was still under Darius’ foot, so he had no choice but to look at Darius. Seeing him up close made the man’s heart tremble, but at the same time, he was relieved that Darius wasn’t wa

“I won’t allow you to do anything other than agree with me.”Suddenly, the dark-suited board member pointed at Darius. His gaze was trained on the other board members, however. He bellowed, “Do you see this? I was right! He refuted everything aside from his family, so he must’ve been lying about everything else!” He turned to glare at Darius. “I’ve been kind and patient enough with you, so you should be smart and not cross the line.”Darius raised an eyebrow. This time, he didn’t say anything. He was sure the dark-suited board member had more to say. As if to prove he was right, the board member continued, “Now, you’re only left with one option—which is to do as I say! Take my shares, then get the fuck out of here!” He sat down and continued lazily, “I’m sure if there were any family wealthier than mine, I’d have some sort of recollection of them—even if someone would need to help jog my memory. Besides, no wealthy family would produce an heir like you!” He looked at Darius scornfu

He looked at Darius, wanting to do something to change his mind. However, when he heard Darius rhythmically knock on the table, he knew there was no turning back. The dark-suited board member paled. He’d taken precautionary measures to stop Darius from going back on his word, and his men were waiting outside the room.His eyes widened with fear. The rhythm with which Darius was knocking on the table was the secret signal the dark-suited board member had agreed upon with his men, and he didn’t expect anyone to know about this. Now, he was proven wrong. Not only did Darius know about it, but he also seemed to be extremely familiar with it.Darius sensed the fearful gaze on him and looked up with a slight smile. It made the dark-suited board member twitch because he knew it wasn’t a smile of joy. On the contrary, it was cold and threatening. It seemed that nothing could escape Darius’ notice. The dark-suited board member shut his eyes, only opening them after a long while. There was n

All he knew was that he’d suddenly lost his balance while watching things play out, and he’d stumbled in Darius’ direction. In that instant, he thought, “I’m dead meat.” He watched as the distance between him and Darius shortened, but he didn’t think it was something worth being happy over. Then, something flashed before him, and there was now nothing between him and the floor. He relaxed and let himself fall to the floor with a loud crash.The dark-suited board member’s eyes twitched at the loud thud, and he looked up at Darius. “Mr. Reid, Timmy may not be the smartest, but he’s strong. He’s been by my side since he was a child; he may have just been there to practice martial arts with me, but he’s put plenty of effort into his training. He’s not the best, but he’ll probably be of a little more use than a normal employee.”His gaze was now calm and settled. “Everything that’s happened today just shows how much of a loser I am, which means I’m no longer in the running to become my fa

Bridget’s eyes widened. Then, she nodded. “I understand, sir. I think you should get ready for the authorities’ arrival—there’s probably going to be a tough battle when they get here. This battle will establish our status in Almiron City for a long time to come.” She looked at Darius seriously.“Yeah.” He sat down, crossed his legs at the knee, and frowned. “I know what you’re worried about, and you’re right to be worried.” He gave her a thumbs up. “You’re very smart, and it’s very likely your prediction will come true… if the official that comes isn’t the smartest.”Darius narrowed his eyes, then said, “Well, I hope that doesn’t happen. Otherwise, the whole of Almiron City will end up in chaos.” His voice was soft, but it still made Bridget shudder. She turned to look out the window, then turned back, pulled her phone out, and checked the time. She said, “Mr. Reid, I called the authorities when I was at the entrance. Their office is only three streets away from here, so they should
