Chapter 213


    The security personnel did not expect anyone to refute his statements.


    It felt like his authority was being questioned, which he refused to ept. Thus, he bellowed at Kate,


    "You''re not that great either! You knew Darius had bad blood with your father''s girlfriend, yet you chose


    to side with Darius! You even wanted Darius to be your boyfriend!"


    Kate''s heart raced upon hearing that.


    She felt her earlier actions were foolish and worried that Darius would get angry upon recalling how she


    behaved. She could tell Darius’ attitude toward her had improved since then, so she cautiously eyed


    him at that moment.


    It was then that her eyes widened.


    She had not given it much thought when she turned to look at Darius. Thus, she never expected him to


    be looking at her. On top of that, he showed no hatred or annoyance-he was gazing at her with


    admiration and pride.


    "His eyes are stunning," she thought, "Darius is truly a handsome man."


    Getting stared at by him caused Kate''s cheeks to turn pink at the most unfitting time.


    Fortunately, she soon snapped to her senses andposed herself, turning her attention toward the


    personnel.


    "I can retrieve footage of your current actions from the ne''s surveince cameraster. All of this will


    get presented before the court, and I can assure you that you''ll lose your jobs."


    The personnel''s faces changed. That oue was what they feared the most, yet Kate was discussing


    it with such certainty, making it clear that the two would unquestionably lose their jobs.


    The lead personnel couldn’t stand anymore, so he whipped out his gun and aimed it at Kate. “You''ll pay


    for what you just said!"


    A secondter, he felt a chill creeping all over his face. He lost mobility simultaneously, unable to draw


    strength from his muscles. He eventually fell to the ground.


    All he felt was his face warming up like a hot iron, and even opening his lips felt impossible. He tried to


    open his eyes but failed. There was nothing he could do.


    Kate shut her eyes once the gun aimed at her. Although Kate was terrified, she could not bring herself


    to stand down as that was the first time a person had looked at her with such confidence.


    Not to mention, Darius was the only one who could help her father. There was no guarantee that


    Darius’ subordinates would not me Kate''s father and make him pay back in kind if Darius got hurt.


    Thus, she needed to defend Darius now.


    Just when she thought she would join Elizabeth in hell for another argument, the other security


    personnel yelled out Darius’ name.


    That shocked Kate, and she opened her eyes without thinking twice. She then saw the lead personnel


    lying on the ground, his face pallid while his eyes were round with fear.


    The personnel mbered onto his feet and stumbled toward the other personnel, whose features


    stiffened with shock.


    While thetter did not know what the former wanted to do, he still reached out to aid the former.


    "Gustav, are you alright?"


    What happened next startled him even more.


    The leading personnel, Gustav, did not answer. Instead, he opened his mouth to continually scream


    while stopping himself from grabbing the knife from his waistband. He cried, “F-Fleming, hurry! Get this


    k-knife away from me! I-I can''t control myself!"


    Gustav stuttered so much that the second personnel, Fleming, could not understand what the former


    was saying.

    Confusion shrouded every inch of Fleming''s face.


    Soon, Fleming''s eyes widened as Gustav grabbed the knife and stabbed his own shoulder. Thetter''s


    screams snapped the former out of his daze.


    Fleming gulped, released Gustav''s hand, and stumbled backward.


    However, he had forgotten he was on a ne, so he eventually backed into his seat. Fear then


    numbed his senses, rendering his limbs useless.


    No one knew what exactly had transpired.


    Meanwhile, Kate''s attention snapped over to Darius. Although she had no proof, she was sure Darius


    was behind the stabbing. Her breathing quickened, but her features were rxed.


    Darius was initially staring down the two personnel, but he turned to look at Kate once he heard her


    change in breathing.


    "You look like you already know what happened," he said with a smile and a casual tone.


    That put Kate''s anxiously beating heart at ease.


    She could not help chucking as she replied, ‘Yeah. I have a rough idea. Still, I''m shocked-l never


    imagined you would be this remarkable. You look like a hero-the kind we see in movies!"


    Darius detected that Kate''s gaze and emotions toward him were different from before. Now, her eyes


    shimmered with much more likeability.


    Regardless, Darius did not ce all his attention on her for long.


    The two personnel had fallen to the ground by then. They looked at Darius with trembling gazes.


    Likewise, the gossiping passengers on board hid behind the backrests of their seats, not daring to


    come out.


    That was not the oue Darius intended for, so he said, “I hope all of you can settle down now. Also,


    what I just did doesn''t mean anything. I merely wanted to show you guys that I have many ways to kill


    you if I wanted to, and you wouldn''t have any evidence to prove I''m behind it. However, I don''t n to


    do so. I’m someone who values life and believes all wrongdoers deserve to get justly punished by the


    law. I would never give in to my emotions and harm anyone.”


    "I disagree."


    Suddenly, Shelvin rose from his seat. He raised his phone at Darius, whose eyes narrowed to slits


    upon seeing what was on the screen.
