Chapter 208


    Darius was still curious about the situation. After all, ording to the airlinepany''s rules, a flight


    was unlikely to take off within an hour and a half if its door opened.


    The passengers were losing their patience at that point. They grew restless and began moring,


    causing a racket in the cabin. Only Darius remained unbothered by things as he sat in his seat.


    Meanwhile, Kate assumed that the door had opened because of her. A proud grin spread across her


    face just then. She was pleased with how quickly the captain had acted upon her orders.


    "How about it? Are you afraid now? Know that a ne won''t fly if I don’t allow it. So, do as I say if you


    want to continue your flightfortably,” she said, smirking while raising her chin triumphantly at


    Darius.


    She felt as though things were going her way.


    Darius ignored her as he heard some familiar footsteps. He turned toward the door and saw two


    security apanying


    Elizabeth into the ne, their hands on her shoulder.


    However, the two were different from the ones before at the check-in gate.


    That caused Darius’ eyes to narrow.


    Next, something even more shocking happened. They led Elizabeth to sit two rows behind Darius.


    Kate''s eyes rounded with shock. Nevertheless, she soonposed herself and approached Elizabeth


    with a snobbish sneer.


    "I never thought I''d see you here after ourst encounter at that hotel. I told you never to show up


    before me again, or I’d make you pay. Yet, I''ll have to break my promise and greet you merrily since


    you''re showing up before me in such a shameful manner.”


    Darius let out a long sigh. He then looked at Erin, instructing, "Call Zack. I don''t want this airline


    company anymore.”


    That was when another person showed up at the airne''s door. His clothes ripped from squeezing


    past the thin gap from the almost closing airne door.


    Darius sighed again.


    In the meantime, the entire ne fell silent as Erin made a phone call.


    The neer''s gaze lingered between Kate and Elizabeth before eventually locking onto thetter.


    "Miss Wilson, I''ve got some bad news for you.”


    Darius could tell Kate’s breathing became heavier and faster after hearing that. He arched a brow,


    feeling uninterested in the situation. Subsequently, he took out hisptop and wanted to continue


    reviewing contracts.


    "Shelvin, you’re my father''s secretary! How dare you look at someone else?" Kate suddenly bellowed.


    Again, she ced her hands on her hips and widened her eyes.


    "Thispany belongs to my father, which means I''ll own it in the future. Therefore, you should inform


    me whenever anything happens!”


    Although Shelvin was too afraid to continue speaking to Elizabeth, he did not tell Kate what happened


    either.


    Silence engulfed the entire ne.


    At that moment, Erin leaned closer to Darius’ ear, whispering, "Mr. Reid, things on Zack''s end are


    sessful. All involvedpanies will now terminate their cooperation with this airlinepany.


    Moreover, thispany has many outstanding debts, so they''ve current fallen into a state of economic


    crisis.”


    Because everyone on the ne was silent, many overheard what Erin said.


    Kate instantly turned to look in the opposite direction. Her actions were so quick that her hairpin fell off,


    and her hair loosened from her bun. Even so, she could not care less.


    All her attention was now on Erin as she stormed over to thetter.


    "What do you mean by what you just said?"


    A frown marred Erin''s face. Unsure of how to respond, she nced at Darius, seeking his advice.


    Darius understood what her gaze meant and immediately stood, protecting Erin behind him while


    lowering his head to re at Kate.


    Kate no longer focused on Darius. Money mattered more to her. Knowing her wealth was suffering a


    major hit, she let out a skin- crawling shrill,” That''s enough! I just want to know what the hell happened


    with thepany!”


    Darius raised a brow. He kept silent, cing both hands in his pockets while staring at Kate like she


    was an idiot.


    Despite seeing that reaction, Kate had no more energy to argue with Darius. At the same time, she


    knew he would never answer her, so she took a deep breath to calm herself.


    "I don''t know who you guys are or why you have such influence over things," she stated, "But I can


    promise you this—''ll fulfill your wish if you guys spare my father''spany. All you have to do is ask.”


    "Perhaps you''re unaware, but I own 51 percent of this airlinepany''s shares.” Darius cocked a brow


    and added, "I''m not interested in acquiring thispany, nor do I care about whatever you can offer


    me.”


    After that, he sat down, fastened his seatbelt, and reclined the back of his seat before shutting his


    eyes. He continued, "I''m now in a foul mood because there have been many obstructions on my trip,


    stopping me from leaving this ce, even now."

    Kate clenched her jaw.


    Although Darius heard her action, he did not want to express his opinion anymore, so he kept his eyes


    shut.


    Opposite him, Kate stomped furiously, turning on her heel to thunder at the captain, who hade


    over but was too afraid to speak.


    She bellowed,” Take off as quickly as you can. I want us tond in Almiron City within 50 minutes."


    The captain''s eyes broadened. He did not need to think twice to know that was impossible, so he


    voiced his concern.


    Miss Anderson, that''s unattainable. Our regr flights take several hours.”
