Chapter 219 The Right Decision##“Don’t do things that irk me anymore if you’re that terrified of me. Otherwise, I can’t promise you’ll still be breathing when you leave this place today,” said Darius.Bilgi trembled even more. He looked up and saw Darius smiling, yet the latter did not seem genuinely happy. That only worsened Bilgi’s fear, causing his teeth to chatter from his increased trembling. He knew Darius was not kidding.Getting killed was an outcome Bilgi did not predict for himself, and he was unsure if he could stop Darius from making it a reality. Thus, his knees wobbled like jelly once more, unable to support the weight of his body. His brain then went blank for some time. Only when his knee bashed into the ground, igniting a sharp sensation in his leg, did he finally snap out of his daze. As that happened, Bilgi could not help but let out a shrill that made everyone’s skin crawl. His alert gaze fixed on Darius, yet the latter ignored him and strolled toward the couch

、Chapter 221 Frightened##Alicia now looked like a strong career woman. Darius locked eyes with her and was about to speak, but she suddenly ran in his direction. It sparked a grin across Darius’ face as he knew Alicia was still the same, innocent girl at heart. As he stood there and stared at her, his clenched jaw loosened.All the while, Erin stood next to him. She paid attention to his shifting expressions, bitter disappointment forming in her heart. Yet, Erin did not verbalize her feelings or show them on her face. She knew such things would often occur in the future, especially if she wanted to stay beside Darius as more than his secretary. She needed to get used to him being popular among women.Regardless, Darius did not have the slightest idea of what Erin was thinking, and neither did Alicia.At that moment, Alicia had arrived before Darius and was formally bowing to greet him and Erin. “Thank you, Mr. Reid and Miss Erin. I don’t know what kind of life I’d be living now if

You’re saying I’m not wealthy? Do you see this shirt I’m wearing? It’s by a small designer from Ioblia, worth 3 million dollars. I’m 28 this year, and it’s the first time I’ve been called poor. Honestly, your accusation is hilarious. Everyone in Almiron City knows me because I’m a member of the Gillette family!”While speaking, the man cockily jutted his chin at Erin. He could already picture Erin groveling at his feet for forgiveness. Should that happen, he was more than ready to claim her as one of his women.Yet, that did not happen, much to his dismay.Erin merely stood there with her eyes wide. “The Gillette family?” she said before letting out a frosty chuckle. “Oh, I know all about that family—they’re filthy rich.”A smirk curled on the man’s face.However, it quickly vanished as Erin placed her hands on her hips. She thundered, “I’ve heard plenty about that family, like how they used improper means to acquire massive wealth. Likewise, I know they’ve continued to utilize unscr

Following the navigation system’s direction, Darius drove Bridget and Erin to the location of the banquet.Sometime later, Erin finished fixing her makeup in the backseat. She felt awful for letting Darius, her boss, drive them all to the event, so she cleared her throat twice to speak. “Mr. Reid, based on my investigation, the banquet will occur at a location that the Gillettes are familiar with—Remnard Estate, their family home. According to tradition, their family gathers in that estate for significant events throughout the year. Earlier, when we encountered Thomas Gillette, I searched for photos of the Gillette family’s events online and did not see him in any of them. Thus, I firmly believe that man has ulterior motives. Not to mention, it’s quite an uncanny coincidence that he’s showing up now. The Gillettes have always been arrogant. The family’s focus isn’t on their money. Instead, the Gillettes are more concerned with whoever poses a potential threat to them. It’s always bee

Darius knew that meant the hostess wanted to do something vicious or planned to ruin his reputation and humiliate him. Despite that, curiosity filled Darius’ mind as he looked forward to seeing what tricks the hostess had up her sleeve. Thus, he silently stood there with his arms behind him.That reaction was not what the hostess expected. Her lips parted slightly in shock, but it only lasted briefly as she soon snapped out of her daze. Then, she fished a document from her pocket and revealed it to everyone. “We invited 120 guests for tonight’s banquet, and ‘Darius Reid’ isn’t one of them. Furthermore, our guests have assigned hostesses who will lead them to their seats—but you don’t have a hostess. Not to mention, you seem unaware of our customs, so I doubt you’ve ever been on the guest list of the Gillette family’s parties before.”The hostess’ voice grew louder by the second. “I believe everyone here knows only the wealthiest figures in Almiron city, or any other city, can appear
