    The next few days were straightforward for Darius. When he got back to the Reid mansion that day, rted the basics of what happened to Bruce, but didn''t go into much details. He then took a well deserved rest.


    He had been so incredibly busy, as the meeting with Tyrell Sanders, the assassination incident that took Tyrell''s bodyguard''s life, the ident with the old man, and the attack on West Antics Int''l all happened in less than 48 hours. Darius was not a machine, so it was only normal that he would be extremely exhausted after dealing with such issues.


    Since his grandfather was noting back until two weekster, Darius felt that there was no need waiting for his arrival, especially with his busy schedule, hence he took the initiative to leave the Reid mansion. At most, he promised to return back to the mansion when his grandfather was back from his business trip.


    Darius then left the Reid mansion and went back to his residence at Dragon Estate. Of course, he took the Mercedes Benz S ss with him. He liked the nondescript value of the car. In circumstances where he needed to maintain a low profile, the car fit all the requirements. Most definitely, Bruce had no qualms about him taking the car with him. It was still the Reid''s property after all.


    It was alreadyte evening by the time Darius arrived at his destination. When he arrived at his residence, the police were still investigating the assassination incident that took ce in his residence. They seemed to attach great importance to the case, as the whole residential area was under strict surveince, with several uniformed policemen patrolling the streets, and even his residence was cordoned off, with four or more specially dressed policemen at standstill in front of his residence.


    Darius let out a sigh at the strict security enforced in Dragon Estate. Although Darius was pleased that thew enforcement agencies were paying close attention to the assassination case and the issue of security, he was still perplexed at the fact that he was unable to ess his house. Nheless, he had no choice but to go along with their decisions. There was no way he could argue with the police, after all, they were doing this to ensure the security of the citizens.


    Darius initially came to his residence to take some of his belongings back with him, however after seeing the strict security enforced; he decided to retrieve them at ater date. He then drove to Sky Golden Hotel and decided to stay there for the time being. He remembered that he purchased the highest ranking membership card some months back. He reckoned that the card would be useful now.


    After driving for more than thirty minutes, he arrived at the familiar Sky Golden Hotel. He parked his car neatly and made his way inside the hotel. There he made a beeline


    to the counter where payments were made. He then renewed his membership card immediately and ordered his dinner, then went to a table located close to the window to wait for his meal.


    Less than three minutester, a waitress approached his table with a tray of food. As she ced the tray of food on the table, Darius could see various exquisite dishes on the tray. The quality of the meal was evident, as the whole meal cost no less than five figures.


    At that moment, Darius'' stomach growled loudly, eliciting a shy look from the waitress serving his meal. When she looked at him, her cheeks flushed from how attractive he was. At that moment, Darius smiled softly, and the waitress who had been instantly smitten by his smile blushed even more before scurrying away shyly.


    Darius chuckled lightly before delving into his meal. He was extremely famished as he had not eaten much earlier in the day. When faced with such exquisite dishes during such hunger, it was only normal his stomach growled.


    He was only halfway his meal when some loud voices caught his attention. He raised his head and nced leisurely in the direction of the loud voice. He could make out two people, a male and a female, and they seemed to be in an argument with each other.


    Darius frowned slightly at the noises their arguments generated, but he decided to ignore it. The matter had nothing to do with him, and the staff at Sky Golden Hotel would certainly not let just anyone disrupt their business.


    Some minutester, Darius finallypleted his meal. He just dropped his pair of cutlery on the table when a charming voice drifted into his ears.


    "Darius Reid?" the voice asked curiously.


    Darius raised his head and came to face a very gorgeousdy. Thedy had blonde hair which was incredibly beautiful, full lips, sexy long legs which were further highlighted by the ck gown she wore, attractive blue eyes, and to top it all an hourss figure.


    In addition to all these impressive features, as she walked, she emitted a regal aura. It showed that she was not from a simple background.


    Although Darius was incredibly impressed by thedy''s gorgeous appearance, he did not let it show on his face, exerting full control over his facial expressions. Rather than answering her question, he asked her a question in return.


    "Who are you?" Darius asked in an even tone devoid of any emotion.


    The gorgeousdy arched her eyebrow at Darius'' counter question before a breathtaking smile emerged on her face. She was very surprised at Darius'' question, as this was the first time someone was looking at her with such clear eyes.


    All the men she met previously all looked at her with tant lust ring in their eyes, and one could easily imagine all the inappropriate thoughts running through their minds.


    She was already used to such behavior from them, as not anyone could still be rational in face of such beauty. Yet, Darius remained perfectly normal. Even if he was moved by her beauty, there was no way for her to confirm it with how well Darius hid his expressions.N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.


    Darius remained still and waited for the gorgeousdy to answer his question, but she kept smiling at him. He was just about to repeat his question again when thedy finally spoke up.


    "My name is J Fox, and it''s a pleasure to meet you, Darius Reid." Thedy


    answered politely.


    The moment Darius heard thedy''s name, an expression of surprise flitted across


    his face. It turned out that the gorgeousdy was none other than J Fox, the second ranked beauty in Kingston University!
