The speaker dared not utter another word ashe cautiously sat back in his seat.Darius no longer concerned himself withthat man. After all, he knew the people gambling here were much poorer thanhim. Their combined assets would not even amount to a fraction of his wealth.There was no way Darius would waste his time on such people. Hence, he promptlyplaced his black bank card with the letter “R” onto the table.The manager’s brows furrowed. “I know manypeople worship Reid Consortium. Since you know of the Reid family, I’m sureyou’re also aware of the family’s social status. In having this bet against me,I hope you understand that a measly person like you cannot survive the wrath ofour casino or the Reids.”“Don’t forget what you’re saying to menow,” Darius responded, his voice devoid of emotion while he glanced at his watch.Then, he placed his card onto the scanner.A second passed before the machinery letout a beep of approval and flashed a green light.Everyone around them

Their gazes met for a moment before Bridget joined Darius' side like always while Edward headed toward the casino.Darius trusted Edward’s abilities, so he left for the airport.Bridget followed along with a slightly hesitative expression. “Sir, you can move around on foot later. You can use our family's own car.”Darius stopped, then looked at his shocked friend, whose jaw had dropped despite only being able to see through a slightly opened swollen eye. Darius knew Rudd’s exaggerated expression was only because the latter felt shocked. Still, seeing that pleased Darius. He reached out to give Rudd’s shoulder a reassuring squeeze. “Don’t be so surprised. I merely reunited with my family. It turns out that my grandfather is super wealthy, and so are my great-grandparents.”Those words did not ease Rudd’s shock. Instead, he uttered a string of foul curses to display how taken aback he felt.It was only after the car screeched to a halt before them and grains of sand flew into Rudd’s parted li

Darius felt it was necessary to draw aclear line between his subordinates’ service to their superiors and thelatter’s friends.…He waited for Rudd to alight the car beforeturning around and extending his arms wide. “Come along. Let’s give you a tour ofmy private jet.”Once Rudd set foot on the airport grounds,he wondered if the plane they were boarding belonged to Darius' family. Nowthat Darius had confirmed that suspicion, Rudd’s jaw fell agape as he muttered,“D-Damn. It seems like you can afford plenty of luxuries now. Still, whatshocks me more is that you still see me as your friend. You came to save melike you would’ve done back then.”Seeing how touched his friend was, Dariusblinked several times before replying, “Duh. We’re best mates, after all.”He had ascended the private jet’s steps bythe time he finished speaking. He looked at the door while motioning toward thejet’s interior. “Hurry up. We’ve still got plenty of things to do.”Rudd immediately clambered aboard

Chapter 129 Generous Hospitality##James had a gentle look on his face as heextended both arms welcomingly. “I hope God blesses you with better things,young man.”Rudd never dreamed that he could enter theReid residence’s front doors. After all, the Reids were rich beyond belief—tothe point where someone like Rudd was unworthy of even mentioning their name.Now, alongside entering the residence, Rudd even got to experience suchgenerous hospitality.The excitement caused his chest to tighten,leaving him breathless again.Seeing that, James put down his arms andchuckled. “I suppose my presence might make things slightly awkward, so I’ll beon my way now.”He then promptly turned on his heel toleave with his walking cane in hand.Rudd’s jaw stayed agape for the longesttime. Never in a million years did he imagine tycoons like the Reid familybehaving kindly toward those with less wealth.Once Darius and Rudd were the only onesleft in the hallway, the latter spoke up in a meek t

Erin had not expected this to happen. Darius offered to support Lewis, which would undoubtedly boost the latter’s career. Those benefits would continue even if Lewis decided to leave Serene Hospital someday.Darius arrived at the office that Erin had set up for him. He noticed the gold plaque on the door, shining brilliantly, and exuding an aura of boundless wealth.He reached out to grab the doorknob, but once he made contact, the plaque fell. The crisp clanging that followed made him freeze. Looking down, Darius instantly noticed a silvery, metallic hue on the back of the plaque. A smile curved on his face as he commented, “It seems that there’s a thief in the hospital.”Only then did his gaze meet Erin’s.The latter held her breath ever since the plaque fell. She never imagined this would happen.Erin lowered her head and interlaced her fingers against her abdomen while formally apologizing, “M-My apologies, Mr. Reid! It’s my fault for not assigning tighter security.”“It’s all right.” Da

“Darius. Long time no see. I hear you’ve recently become rich,” George sneered.Darius' brows furrowed, forming a wrinkle on his once flawless face.“George Jennings? I never thought I’d see you here,” he replied with his hands still in his pockets. Darius was unperturbed, as though nothing had happened.Contrarily, sheer hatred exuded from a scowling George.“I assumed you’d always work for your previous boss. It seems you’re not as much of an asset to him as I thought,” Darius continued, unbothered by George’s nasty expression.A scoff came from George just then. “I left that job. My current boss made the right decision in hiring me.”“Yeah, yeah. I’ll be taking my leave now.” Darius still could not care less. He doesn't want to argue with him.He wanted to leave but could not as George, who held a tray full of food, blocked his path.A storm brewed in Darius' eyes. His rage was so intense that anyone watching would get goosebumps. “I’m very foul-tempered, especially toward those I disagreed

Alvin then reached for the pager attachedto his belt. “If you call for security now, I’ll makesure you lose your job, Mr. Kenyon,” Darius casually remarked, not taking thematter seriously even now.That was utterly unacceptable in Alvin’seyes.His cheeks burned with rage as he snapped,“Darius, you could’ve gotten prosecuted if I hadn’t let you off the hook! Howdare you ignore how kind I was to you in the past? Not only that, but you’rethreatening me now? Oh, how I regret showing you mercy back then!”Darius snorted before drilling his gazeinto Alvin. “It seems you haven’t realized how stupid you are now.”That only fueled the fire burning inAlvin’s chest. While glaring daggers at Darius, he snarled, “You’ll get what’scoming for acting this way!”“It seems your vision has worsened afterjoining this place.” Darius scrunched his face, sneering while intentionallybrushing dust off his clothes so Alvin could get a better look at them.Alvin noticed the expensive outfit butbec

Darius agreed with that statement, so he nodded while locking gazes with Erin. “You’re correct. This Jeremiah Locke guy seems efficient in monitoring his hotel’s affairs. Even I think he deserves a bonus for reacting so quickly.”Erin smiled but kept mum.Meanwhile, Jeremiah, who had yelled earlier, was nearing Darius.The latter made use of his advanced hearing to track Jeremiah’s footsteps. Once he determined Jeremiah was within his attack range, he dashed ahead and kicked Alvin. Alvin did not expect Darius to do that. Then again, Alvin couldn’t defend himself even if he anticipated the kick. Thus, he flew a distance away, landing on the ground next to Jeremiah with a blow. Jeremiah roared, alarmed at the sudden appearance of something near his feet. He then kicked Alvin out of instinct.Not a squeak came from Alvin, who blacked out immediately after. The only thing proving he was still alive was his subtle breaths.A smirk formed on Darius' face when he heard the commotion behind him, in
