Darius smiled when he spoke, but it didn’t reach his eyes. However, neither of the women realized this. Ashley couldn’t stand listening to the two of them talk bad about her anymore, so she shot to her feet and hurried over to them, her heels clacking on the floor.She stood between them, but to Darius’ surprise, she was facing Olivia, not him. She didn’t even spare him a glance.This was his first time being treated like this after becoming wealthy, which was refreshing. He took two steps back and leaned against the counter to better watch the two women. Olivia was already trembling, and Darius frowned with displeasure. He didn’t do anything else, though.Ashley couldn’t care less about how he felt. She put one hand on her hip and pointed the other at Olivia, her voice hoarse as she forced out through gritted teeth, “Olivia, I thought I was already kind enough to you! When you started working here, I split my customers with you and helped you whenever you needed it, yet here you are,

“What’s it doing in your hands?” Ashley glared daggers at him.Darius raised an eyebrow. Ashley’s reaction surprised him because even in Ashweir City, not many people knew about this card—those who did were all influential and wealthy. Now, however, not only did Ashley know about it, but she also had an interesting look in her eyes.Sure enough, she hurried toward him, showing off her long, straight legs with every step she took. Darius stared at them, and she looked pleased. Her good mood didn’t last for long—Darius said, “I don’t think it’s a good thing for you to walk like that. Your legs aren’t as nice as you think, and when you keep straightening them like that, they resemble two huge radishes. Can you imagine how scary it’d be to see two radishes walking toward you?” He spread his hands, looking at her helplessly.Ashley’s eyes widened at him and started to tear up. She’d never wanted to cry this badly because no one had ever said such hurtful things to her before. His words wer

Then, he sat down across the old man and crossed his legs. He’d been through a lot of drama to get here, which was a little anticlimactic. When the old man’s eyes started twitching, Darius said, “I think you called me in here to show me some of your previous works so that we could finalize the designs for my party favors. I want to give all of Almiron City’s wealthiest something that can leave an impression on them and show them how much wealthier the Reid family is.” His face was devoid of emotion.The old man grinned and revealed his gold teeth. Even though Darius didn’t want to admit it, he wanted nothing more than to swear at the old man’s eccentricities. However, he suppressed the urge and dragged the photo album on the table toward himself. He thumbed through it and put a finger on one of the photos. It was of an angel looking down at the people on Earth from above. Then, a disappointed expression appeared on his face. These photos were from the same series, but Darius only s

Even after going through his memories, Darius realized that he still had no clues. It didn’t go down well, and his expression darkened. He pressed a finger to his temple and tried to remember again. At this moment, Edward’s voice rang out from the door. “Mr. Reid, perhaps we should leave if you’re done finalizing the designs.” His voice was low because he was worried Darius was asleep. Of course, he wasn’t afraid of waking him up—that was exactly what he wanted to do.He was only worried that he would startle Darius if he were too loud. After all, an enlightened martial artist’s senses were much sharper than a normal individual’s. After saying this, he waited by the door and frowned as the two women approached him.At the same time, his ears perked up—he could hear someone’s footsteps in the room. Edward was worried that Darius would run into Ashley and Olivia when he stepped out of the room, so he quickly said, “Are you two coming over here because there aren’t any other customers?

Her voice became as shrill as the first time Darius saw her. “Stop right there! You truly are a loveless brat who grew up in an orphanage, and you grew up in squalor! You weren’t even educated properly, so what right do you have to act so high and mighty with me? Do you really think you’re no different from those people who grew up as part of the Reid family? No, you’re leagues behind them! Not a single shred of you makes one think you’re from a rich family. Otherwise, how could I have misread you? Why would we be in this situation?” Ashley put her hands on her hips, her chest heaving. She looked like she was in agony.Darius slowed and stopped when he heard her words, then turned to look at her. He raised an eyebrow and said, “I knew you were shameless, but I honestly didn’t expect you to say such unreasonable things, especially since you know who I am. I can’t even bring myself to find a reason to let you off the hook.” His voice was soft, but it was enough to make Ashley tremble.

“Luxury brands like us have our own cultural heritage, and no matter how hard the going gets, we can’t lose that heritage! So, there’s no way a loser like yourself can be allowed to own anything that belongs to our brand—it’ll only make us look bad. I’ll write a letter to our headquarters and explain the matter to the Reid family. I’m sure they’ll understand why I did this and back me up.” Ashley smiled, then put a hand on her chest and said dramatically, “Oh, you have no idea how bad you make me feel. You carry the surname of the Reid family, but you’re not considered one of them. I pity you, but I’m only just a normal employee—I can’t help you with this. Perhaps I’ll skip my steak dinner tonight to satisfy your desire to see me suffer.”She burst into hysterical laughter after saying this, but it only took a simple sentence from Olivia to turn her laughter into rage. “Ashley, I think you got something wrong. Since this customer has already paid the deposit, it can only be forfeite

Hansley thought once Darius knew that he and his wife had been good friends with his parents, Darius would immediately dash over to him to ask about his parents. When he’d investigated Darius, he found out that no one had told Darius about his parents. To his surprise, Darius was calm, but he looked doubtful.Hansley’s lips twitched. Then, he pulled a pocket watch out of his pocket and slowly approached Darius. Darius had seen the exact same pocket watch in his grandfather’s study, and even if it couldn’t stop him from suspecting the old man was up to something, it stopped him from attacking Hansley.Hansley sighed with relief when he saw this. At least Darius wasn’t so strongly opposed to him anymore, which was a good sign. He stopped about ten steps away from Darius, put the pocket watch on the floor, then held his hands up and backed away. “Perhaps you’ll believe I’m telling the truth once you look at the pocket watch.”Darius raised an eyebrow. He was about to walk toward the pock

Hansley fell silent. He bit his lip and looked at Darius helplessly. “I didn’t expect you to think that, but I can’t deny that you make sense.” He shrugged, then put a hand on the laptop on the table. Then, he stopped. Instead of turning the laptop on, he retracted his hand. “If that’s what you think, I can probably use another method to prove that I’m telling the truth. However, if you insist that you’re right, you can leave now.” He pointed at the door.Darius raised an eyebrow. He didn’t expect Hansley to act like this because of how anxious he’d seemed earlier and how much he wanted to prove he was telling the truth. Now, however, his attitude had changed completely. Darius found this odd, so instead of leaving, he settled down on his chair and crossed his legs at the knee.Hansley immediately understood what he wanted and felt his heart skip a beat. He stopped biting his lip, but he gnashed his teeth as he said, “You’re a lot more hateful than you used to be. You were so adorable
