Chapter 170
Darius didn’t want to spare Frederica even a single look. He could see her excitement and intentions,
especially when her gaze was trained on him. He wanted to leave, and so he did.
He didn’t expect her to appear before him and stop him from leaving. He sighed. “Is there anything
else. you need from me, Miss Kuster?”
Frederica’s face became nervous when she heard him address her so formally. She started to tremble
and sounded nervous as she said, “Mr. Reid, I want to buy you a meal as thanks for sharing some of
your wealth with me. I’m also grateful that you didn’t ask me to repay you in any way, not even with my
body.” She bowed her head.
Darius was unmoved. He knew what she meant, but he wasn’t interested. Therefore, he said coldly,
“I’m not going to eat with you, and I have my reasons. Firstly, I need you to repay me–by achieving
what I wanted you to. Secondly, as I said earlier, I don’t have much time.”
When he was done saying what he wanted to, he didn’t move. It wasn’t because he didn’t want to-
Frederica didn’t seem to show any intention of budging. He sighed and started to look disappointed. “I
honestly wanted to help you because you’re a smart woman.”
He was about to summon the security guards to do their jobs when Frederica spoke up.
“I’m sorry, and I didn’t mean to make you mad. I really just wanted to thank you, but I’ll leave now that I
know you’re offended.” After that, she fled.
Darius watched her leave, feeling satisfied. He put his hands behind his back and turned to look at
Erin.” You haven’t spoken for a long time. What are you thinking about?”
Erin had already regained her composure and was like her usual self. She smiled and said, “Nothing. It
just occurred to me that things have been going smoothly lately. While you were speaking, Zack sent
me a message saying that all of their highest–earning assets have become ours.”
“That really is good news.” Darius smiled, and it was enough to show just how happy he was. He
started walking, and he soon arrived at his destination–his office. The situation inside made him want to
laugh, though.
The person that had been hiding in the cabinet was no longer there. Suddenly, Darius couldn’t help.
thinking about how lucky he was. If he’d turned up just a little later, he definitely would’ve missed the
opportunity to see who this woman was.
Yes, the person in the cabinet was a woman! She was trying to escape, but it was obvious that she’d
failed, even if she didn’t know it yet.
Darius was worried that he’d scare her and make her fall out of the window if he were to open the door,
so he didn’t. He stood at the entrance and turned to Erin, putting his finger to his lips to signal for her to
stay silent.
She didn’t know what was going on, but she could guess. Her eyes lit up, and she kept her lips tightly
pursed. She pulled her phone out and showed Darius the screen showing a staff member’s phone
number.
He shook his head and typed a message on his phone before showing it to her.
“I don’t want her to be scared or get injured. Have someone get ready to catch her downstairs so that
nothing happens even if she slips and falls.”
Erin gaped at his words. He seemed like a completely different person today! The person he was
referring to was a woman! This was the second time on the same day that he’d gone against his
principles for al woman. This worried her, but she still did as she was told.
Darius could sense her negative emotions, but it wasn’t his main concern currently. He wanted to know
who was in his office, and the need was strong enough to confuse him.
He didn’t understand why this was happening, but he felt it was probably similar to his ability to sense
danger.
He stood at the entrance, still as a statue, and tried to make his breathing as light as possible. He
stayed like this until Erin returned with the news that she’d carried out his instructions perfectly.
Only then did Darius move. He stretched his arms and pushed the door open as if nothing had
happened. Then, he spoke to Erin, pretending to be talking about something he wanted. “I need the
hospital’s recent financials and patient feedback.“He clearly heard the woman’s breathing speed up
after he said this. This made him think that she was probably salivating for his wealth.
Erin knew that these documents were already on his desk. She was confused, but she finally
understood when she saw his gaze travel between herself and the cabinet. Trying to hide her laughter,
she said, “As you wish, Mr. Reid. Everything’s been prepared in time for your arrival. They’re in the
cabinet, and I’ll get them right now.”
As she walked toward the filing cabinet, Darius heard the breathing of the woman outside the window
race. A trace of a smile formed on his lips.
Suddenly, something changed outside. The woman was getting closer to him, making his smile fade. A
trace of iciness replaced it, and he started to get mad. However, the woman couldn’t see this.
When he heard the breathing coming from behind him, he smiled again. “Let me see.
The filing cabinet seems different from the way I remember it.”
Erin’s mind went blank, but as Darius‘ secretary, she had no choice but to keep the act up no matter
what he wanted. So, an approving look crept onto her face, and she said,
“You’re right, Mr. Reid. I thought so as well.”
Darius‘ smile grew. “Erin, I think I know what the person who snuck into the filing cabinet looks like now.
The woman was around 5’5” and weighed 110 pounds.”
