He smiled. "Ah, it's you. I remember that you were expelled because of your bad record. Also, the
university tested you psychologically and determined that you had a high propensity for violence.”
As Darius spoke, he pulled his hands out of his pocket and allowed them to rest by his side. Though he
didn't think Holt was a threat, there was no denying that Holt could launch a sudden attack on any of
the people present.
Holt looked at Darius and laughed mockingly. He rolled his sleeves up and cracked his knuckles.
"It looks like the beatings you received back in university didn't leave much of an impression on you.
You don't seem to remember what we rich people are capable of, but I suppose they're the ones to be
blamed for not being able to teach you a lesson. It's okay—l'll teach you a lesson on their behalf." He
turned to face Darius.
At his words, Calypso couldn't hold herself back anymore. This was mostly due to her stupidity-earlier,
she'd suspected Darius was a wealthy person! Her suspicions humiliated her, even if no one knew
what had gone through her mind. This infuriated her because she felt like Darius had tricked her.
She shot to her feet, pointed at Darius, and shrieked, "Holt, get him! Give him a good beating! Once he
admits to his mistakes, I'll serve Kate to you on a silver platter. We can talk about everything else after
that." Her insinuation was obvious.
Darius saw Holt's Adam's apple bob at Calypso's words, and everyone present heard her loud and
clear. They all smiled meaningfully, wanting to see how Kate felt about this.
Unfortunately for them, Kate wasn't around to hear this, so there was no way for their wish to be
granted.
They looked at Holt expectantly, and he didn't disappoint. He waved at them and said, "It looks like we'll
be a family after today."
As everyone applauded, he walked toward Darius, a trace of victory in his eyes. It was as if Kate was
already his, giving Darius a thorough understanding of how shameless he could be.
Holt stopped before Darius and frowned when Darius remained unmoved. "How can you be so rude?
I'm your senior, aren't I?Shouldn't you be treating me with the respect I deserve? You're looking at me
like I'm your nemesis even when I haven't done anything yet." He rolled his shoulders as he spoke.
Darius didn't even flinch. He didn't think there was any point saying anything to Holt. Calypso obviously
agreed with Holt. She pointed at Darius and screeched, "You have no idea how unreasonable he is! He
was unbelievably rude to me, and you saw what he did to Kate. They were even staying at the same
hotel!”
Darius frowned. He couldn't care less what people said about him, but Calypso had tested his patience
for far too long. He didn't think he could stand her for much longer, and his expression became frosty.
The people around him felt the temperature start to drop, and they subconsciously shivered.
Holt felt it as well, but he was confused by this sudden change in temperature. He looked up at the sky,
not noticing anything unusual. So, he shook his head and pushed this to the back of his mind, going
back to looking at Darius.
"So, you were rude to my future aunt-in-law, huh? I guess this means you have no objection to me
teaching you a lesson, right? After all, you're my junior and involved with my fiancee in a way that you
shouldn't have been.” As he spoke, he reached out to Darius.
Darius remained unmoving with his hands behind his back. Everyone watched with bated breath
because they'd all seen Holt in action before. They could already visualize how bad Darius would look
once Holt was through with him. This didn't include Benji and Darius himself.
In fact, Benji couldn't stop himself from letting out a chuckle. It stood out because of the silence, and it
made everyone turn to look at him with looks of excitement and worry. He quickly composed himself,
suddenly realizing that he’d made a huge mistake. He'd actually been mocking Darius! He resisted the
urge to pull his hair out and smiled awkwardly at Darius, saying,’ Sorry, I shouldn't have laughed. I was
just..." He trailed off, realizing that he couldn't think of anything to explain his behavior.
In fact, the reason why he'd laughed was that he'd never seen Darius speechless before. He knew that
Darius would definitely be the one to come out on top, but he couldn't help feeling amused at Darius
allowing Holt to make the first move. He didn't expect to laugh out loud, and he looked at Darius
anxiously.
Benji was worried that his actions would reflect badly on Kate, making it harder for her to win Darius’
heart. He could tell how much she liked him.
Darius raised an eyebrow, not expecting Benji to apologize to him. He remained silent as he tried to
think of an appropriate response, but it only made Benji’s anxiety levels shoot up.
He lowered his head.
