Chapter 194
Darius raised his arm, pulled back his sleeve to look at his watch, then placed his hands on the table.
"You'll have loads of free time in the future, Dean Fletcher, while I'll be busier. If you want an easier
time at the detention center, I suggest you stand and speed this whole process up.”
Leon’s eyes narrowed the slits at Darius. "You're too arrogant, Darius Reid! Sooner or later, you'll pay
for it!"
Darius did not respond to that. His expression remained blank as he put his hands in his pockets,
turned toward the official, and said, "I think we should go now.”
"I agree," replied the official in a neutral tone.
Subsequently, Darius exited the space with the group of officials in tow.
Pearl never imagined she would witness such a scene. Her jaw dropped, and she did not know how to
respond.
That continued until Darius stepped outside the dean's office. Only then did Pearl finally soeak. "Darius,
I think I should go with you because I can prove that you wrote your dissertation. Plus, I also witnessed
half of what happened to you with Dean Fletcher.”
Darius’ lips curved before he shook his head. "No, that's not an appropriate place for a girl like you.
Besides, I can handle these things alone. It won't take too long, nor will I endanger myself."
That was not the outcome Pearl hoped for, but she knew she had no Say in the matter. All she could do
was stand at the door of the dean's office and watch him leave.
It was not long before Darius arrived at the detention center again.
He had just left this place in the morning. Never did he think he would return later in the day. On top of
that, he never would have guessed his plan would be so successful.
"The person controlling all of this is likely at Almiron City now,” Darius thought with a frosty glare. “How
I wish I could be right in front of Gillette Group's doors now. But that's impossible because I haven't
gotten a leave of absence yet. Honestly, I have no clue who I should ask for approval..."
He eventually got to the interrogation room and submitted all of his evidence to the officials.
The officials there were people he had never met before, which meant they would judge things
impartially.
They accepted Darius’ evidence and informed him, "Donny will be likely to be punished for what he did.
We hope you can speak up for him on the matter.”
"Did your boss discover the things that Donny did for me?” Darius arched a brow, flashing a look of
disbelief.
The officials shook their heads, and one replied, "No, that's not the case. Donny came clean about
everything to our chief. While we don't think he did anything wrong, but still he broke the rules and had
to be punished accordingly."
Darius nodded before voicing his thoughts. "He was trying to help me. I won't let him get punished for
it. If the rules insist on holding someone accountable, I'll bear that responsibility.”
Hearing that, the officials nodded happily; Darius had done way more than they had hoped he would.
"So, where do I go now?” Darius could not help asking after seeing them smile without giving him more
information.
Only then did the group snap to their senses.
One of them gazed warmly at Darius and said, “I think-l can take you to him."
"That's great!" Darius nodded, indicating he was grateful.
Following that, the official walked ahead, guiding Darius.
They soon arrived before a black door that stood out from the others.
The official could tell Darius was confused, so he explained to the latter," This room is specially
prepared for officials who make severe mistakes. When that happens, the person gets detained until
they realize their wrongdoings."
Darius then recalled the room in this exact location on the floor above and frowned.
"There aren't any windows in this room," he stated with a voice full of certainty, shocking the official.
The official eventually composed himself and replied, "Indeed. There are no windows or lights. You
can't even get food or water when detained in this room."
Darius could accept the first two things, but the last bit went against his beliefs. Thus, he urged through
gritted teeth, "I need to discuss Donny's situation with your chief now."
While the two were chatting at the door, a crashing sound came from inside the room-it was Donny.
He had overheard their conversation. Panicked, he rushed to the door and threw his body against it,
causing a loud boom. He yelled at the top of his lungs, "This matter has nothing to do with both of you!
Please don't speak up for me! The punishment I'm accepting now is a result of my actions. I didn't
receive any unfair treatment or injustice.”
Darius looked at the official beside him.
The latter shrugged before raising both hands, indicating he could not do anything about the situation.
He then explained, "That's how Donny is. Every one knows what happened to you, Mr. Reid, so
everyone feels what Donny did is acceptable.
He didn't need to come clean about it to our chief. However, he thinks differently from us. Donny
admitted to everything and ended up in this state. Our chief was furious. He said Donny had to stay
here for three days without food or water. But everyone's worried that he can’t survive it."
Suddenly, the door rumbled again, and Donny yelled from the other side.
He spoke fast, so it was challenging to make sense of his words. However, Darius could tell Donny did
not want the former to interfere or speak up.
A moment passed as Darius hesitated, he ultimately felt it was wrong to accept Donny's opinions on
the situation.
Hence, he locked eyes with the official. "I need you to take me to your chief now. We must come up
with a good way to resolve this.”
The official gave a big thumbs up to Darius, praising him, "Donny made the right choice in helping you.
You're worth his efforts."
