Chapter 215


    Darius sat back in his, he could tell the man on the ground no longer nned to attack. Thus, Darius


    returned his attention to the contents of hisptop screen.


    Shelvin did not expect that from the former. He knelt on the ground and dared not move while letting


    out lengthy sighs. With time, he eventually felt he could not stay in that position any longer, so he


    cautiously looked up and nced sideways at Darius. That was when Darius’ voice rang out.


    "Everything you''ve done till now remains a mistake until I allow you to get up. I''m being generous by


    only making you kneel now. If you can''t even fulfil this condition of mine, I suggest you try to kill me


    instead. Otherwise, you''ll suffer a more miserable end."


    N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    Every muscle in Shelvin''s body tremored as he knelt and bowed his upper body against the ground.He


    sumbed because he knew Darius was serious about that threat.


    Thus, he gulped and looked up at thetter.


    "Then, what must I do for you to allow me to stand?"


    Darius’ eyes narrowed at Shelvin.


    "I want to know how you managed to show up at such immacte timing and see me deal with that


    pesky woman. Also, why did that woman suddenly start trouble for Edward at the airport earlier?"


    "What? I don''t understand a word you''re saying!" Shelvin''s eyes hardened, trying to shoot a calm and


    collected look at Darius but failing.


    Darius took in the former with a look of mockery.


    "Since you''ve decided not to tell me anything, what else can you offer in exchange for me to let you


    go?"


    Shelvin leaned against the ground, his eyes darting around as he brainstormed.


    "Everything has turned out differently from the information I found about Darius,” he thought before


    gulping and continuing to kneel. He knew he needed to make a decision.


    Then, Darius looked up and did not see Kate’s head peeking out from the seat in front of him. He found


    it odd as he did not see Kate leave the cabin at any point, so he stood.


    Shelvin was already terrified of Darius, so seeing thetter abruptly stand made him shrink backward in


    fear. Yet, he was surprised when he realized Darius'' focus was not on him. Thetter did not even


    spare a sideways nce at him.


    Instead, Darius walked ahead, eventually taken aback by the sight of Kate lying on the ground.


    Her eyes were shut, and it seemed as though she did not know what had happened.


    Darius instantly guessed the reason for that; it was because Shelvin''s sudden gust of wind caused her


    to trip, hit her head, and faint. She then remained unconscious until now.


    A deep sigh came from Darius just then.


    He turned to look at Shelvin, saying, "You were already at fault for killing someone. Now, you’ve just


    made another mistake. I''ll keep this in mind and settle things with you once we get off this ne.”


    Shelvin did not fear those words. Instead, his eyes widened with relief as what Darius said implied he


    could leave this ne alive. Sadly, his hopeful outlook would soon get shattered.


    Darius returned to his seat, adding with his frosty tone, ‘That is if you manage to get off this ne


    alive.”


    Eyes widened and heart racing, Shelvin was shocked that Darius was not nning to let him go. His


    voice took on more of a squeak as he rified,


    "Darius, although I came here intending to harm you, I didn’t actually do it."


    ‘That intention alone is enough reason for me to kill you. I don''t need you to do anything else now.”


    Darius yawned before adding, "I''m not an enforcer of thew, so the oue of things doesn’t matter


    to me-it''s your motive and your actions throughout the event that matter to me.”


    Shelvin''s eyes were wide open. He could not express anything else apart from the terror he felt. After


    all, he had never encountered anyone like Darius in all his years as an assassin.


    Darius let out a long exhale after sitting down. He then instructed,


    "Edward, get the ne''s captain, or any other person in charge, over. Tell them Kate is injured and


    needs medical attention."


    Edward whipped around on his heel to do so at once, not doubting the former’s orders. It was also then


    that Bridget shut her Laptop.


    She shot a determined gaze at Darius. "Mr. Reid, you can rx now. The video no longer exists on his


    phone, and he can''t ever retrieve it again."


    Darius quirked a brow before locking eyes with Bridget. "I didn''t know you had such skills." A proud


    smile spread across Bridget''s face.


    “Edward and I may be proficient in fighting, but ourbat skills aren''t in the top ten ranking among all


    other bodyguards. Contrarily, we have many skills that others don''t. For instance, I''m well versed in


    computer science and driving while Edward specializes in management and medical practices.”


    His eyes rounded, shocked as he had always assumed it only took adeptbat skills to be a


    bodyguard for the Reid family.


    Now he knows that The Reid family''s bodyguards needed exceptional fighting skills, as well as many


    abilities and specializations within other fields. He now had a higher level of understanding toward Reid


    Consortium''s wealth.


    Some time passed before he nodded, asking, ‘Those are both your areas of expertise, huh? Well, I''d


    like to know how you define expertise. To what extent are you two proficient in your skills?"


    Bridget beamed. That was the first time she revealed a sincere smile before Darius, as she reached a


    new level of understanding toward him.


    She mused, "He''s indeed a remarkable person who''s able to deduce many things from one piece of the


    puzzle like he''s doing now by asking that."
