Darius heard someone roar outside, so he looked out and saw Lyon on the ground, covered in blood again. This wasn’t something he’d expected. He raised an eyebrow and met Lyon’s hatred-filled gaze. He sighed.Borisin looked at him with a smile in his eyes. “I thought you’d take his life like you did that old lady’s.”“Stop trying to frame me. Her death has nothing to do with me.”Borisin narrowed his eyes. “Don’t you think that sounds weird?”Darius nodded, propping his head up with his arm on the window. “It does.” He crossed his legs at the knees and tapped his fingers against the seat’s armrest.“There’s really no need for you to test me because all you’re going to get is another lie.” He wiggled his eyebrows and shut his eyes, not saying anything else.Borisin frowned at his attitude. His reaction wasn’t within Borisin’s expectations, so he didn’t know what to say. Soon, the silence was broken. When the fighting ended, Bridget ran over to them. “Mr. Reid, I’ve already rounded everyo

Chapter 211 ICan’t##Darius heardsome noise on the other end of the line, then his grandfather’s resolute voicerang out. “Tell me everything you know.”He knew there wasnothing to hide about this, so he told James everything he and Borisin had seenand experienced. James sounded even grimmer after listening to him. “So, you mean tosay that neither of you came into contact with anyone? No one injected anythinginto either of your bodies or force-fed you anything? Yet this still happened?”Darius rubbed histemple. “Yes, Grandpa. I’ve tried my best to recall every detail, but I haven’tcome across anything that seems out of the ordinary.”“Alright.” Jameshung up. Darius put his phone down and looked at Edward. “That drug youresearched—how is it administered?”Edward met hisgaze. “There are plenty of ways. One can drink, touch, or even breathe it in.”“When do thememory lapses start?”“The moment thedrug kicks in. And that was the reason why it wasn’t thrown intoproduction—th

While speaking, Darius directed his gaze atBorisin. “He’s a remarkable member of the authorities. Alas, because he comesfrom the Reid family, it was much easier for me to obtain his personalinformation than you or the other authorities.” Many expressions of shock, doubt,disbelief, and panic swirled in Miguel’s stormy eyes. His chaotic emotions werenotably different from Darius’ stoicism. A lengthy sigh came from Darius. “Seeingthat he’s a Reid, I won’t pursue this matter anymore. Nevertheless, I want theauthorities to know this—it’s impossible for you guys to pin the old woman’sdeath on me. After all, if I wanted to, I could easily kill someone.”With that, Darius knocked on the deskbefore him, ordering, “Bridget, you can send them off now.”Bridget appeared just then. Her gaze was assharp as a dagger as it pierced through Miguel. She then motioned at the door.“This way.”Miguel knew nothing would change even if heand Borisin remained here. Not to mention, despite spendi

Darius placed his hands in his pockets,condescendingly looking down at Bilgi and spitting. Without giving the matteranother thought, he swung his foot onto the latter’s stomach, then headed backto the couch.Bilgi lay on the ground. He struggled to turnhis head toward Darius before coughing up blood. Only then did his hoarse voicering out. “I guess you’re not very bright, so I’ll punish you now!”His head whipped around to face the men invarious formal suits behind him. They were staring at him with blank faces,which made his breathing quicken. He slammed both palms into the ground,forcing himself off the floor. “Why the hell aren’t you guys doinganything?” he loudly barked at the men, his saliva splattering everywhere whilehe pointed at Darius. “Have you forgotten who the boss that’ssustaining your livelihoods is? I’m now ordering you guys to break this boytoy’s legs! Let’s see how he’ll use his body for a living after becoming acripple!” Not a tinge of emotion showed

Bilgi’s eyes hardened with confidence.“Darius Reid, you may own immeasurable wealth, but this is Almiron City! Here,the Reid family’s wealth can never compare to the Gillette family’s!”Darius frowned, not uttering a single wordas he found it unnecessary to confirm nor deny Bilgi’s statement.A long while passed, yet Bilgi never got aresponse. His confidence soared as Darius did not react, nor did the lattercontinue exerting pressure on his body. He jutted his chin, proudly trumpeting,“So, it doesn’t matter how wealthy yourfamily is because you need to respect the rules here! Also, I work for theGillette family. I’ve served them for a long time, so you should show me somerespect to ensure your safety in this city.”He was so confident that he forgot aboutKate’s presence entirely.Kate raised her foot and stomped it onBilgi, a raging fire burning her eyes. “How curious. When exactly did you startworking for the Gillettes? You claim to have served them for a long time, sow
