Lord Reynolds resided in his mansion for years due to personal reasons.So, he took his time to look around and appreciate its royal beauty.The palace was situated at the top of a hill overlooking the capital city. The exterior was a dazzling display of marble and gold and its walls were also adorned with intricate carvings. As Dario came out of the car, the royal guards all bowed in reverence.The best part about the palace to Dario was the gardens surrounding the palace with its lush greenery and colorful blooms. On getting inside, the council of ministers were already seated. As Dario walked in, his presence commanded authority and attention as they all stood up on their feet, bowed and chorused, “Welcome! Your majesty.”Dario nodded in acknowledgement and said, “Thank you! It’s good to have you all gathered here. Please have your seats

On getting downstairs, Dario was met by Elizabeth’s back. Just like always, she was dressed in her tailored black suit of rich black and gloves of the same color. Her sleek, chestnut hair still pulled back in a severe bun.Dario cleared his throat to draw her attention. ‘We finally meet.’ Dario thought as she turned to face him. For the first time, he’s seeing his ruthless aunt that has been after his life since day one.She looked just like in the paintings, just slightly older in person and presently appearing disheveled. She still had this icy demeanor that somehow surrounded her portraits.‘We finally meet.’ Elizabeth thought, laughing devilishly in her mind as she locked eyes with her nephew who she had not seen since he was a baby. Why did he look like he grew up well regardless of the terrible circumstances that surrounded his life?Intense hatred burned in her eyes as she laid her eyes on him. She wished he’d just disappear into thin air that moment and never return!But, tod

She really had the guts to come and make such a request knowing fully well that her request will reveal her evil deeds. This woman must be the most insensitive, atrociously bold and selfish person he had ever met!As Dario looked down at her while she pretended to wail, his veins bulged at his temples, pulsating with the force of his pent-up anger.He could really just kill her and hide her dead body because she wasn’t even here with her guards. Maria came without her guards because she didn’t want them to see her in this state.She kept wailing while Dario watched her, unwavered by her tears. She looked up at him and realized Dario wasn’t moved by her little performance, ‘why isn’t he getting moved? How heartless!’ She thought.Who was Elizabeth to call a person ‘heartless’??What did she expect from Dario? Compassion?“Please show mercy, don’t let your cousin die!” she said, her expression pleading.Show mercy?Dario couldn’t help but laugh out loud. His anger immediately turned t

“You! Garbage!” Dario retorted, walking away towards the large glass doors.He then stopped in his tracks and turned back to Brian, “Prepare yourself to pay the price for being so arrogant and cocky.”“You piece of shit! How dare you! Come back here!” Brian screamed but Dario ignored him and entered the building.Brian’s face flushed red with anger, “Who does he think he is?!” he asked Amelia rhetorically. He was about to follow Dario and cause a scene, maybe give him a dirty slap too, but Amelia held his arm back.She said, “Baby, today is your first day as the managing director, don’t let that riffraff implicate you. Hitting him here will only tarnish your image.”Upon hearing Amelia’s words, Brian’s anger seemed to dissolve. He realized what Amelia said was true.
