The Consortium's Heir novel Chapter 213

Chapter 213

The security personnel did not expect anyone to refute his statements.

It felt like his authority was being questioned, which he refused to accept. Thus, he bellowed at Kate, "You're not that great either! You knew Darius had bad blood with your father's girlfriend, yet you chose to side with Darius! You even wanted Darius to be your boyfriend!"

Kate's heart raced upon hearing that.

She felt her earlier actions were foolish and worried that Darius would get angry upon recalling how she behaved. She could tell Darius’ attitude toward her had improved since then, so she cautiously eyed him at that moment.

It was then that her eyes widened.

She had not given it much thought when she turned to look at Darius. Thus, she never expected him to be looking at her. On top of that, he showed no hatred or annoyance-he was gazing at her with admiration and pride.

"His eyes are stunning," she thought, "Darius is truly a handsome man."

Getting stared at by him caused Kate's cheeks to turn pink at the most unfitting time.

Fortunately, she soon snapped to her senses and composed herself, turning her attention toward the personnel.

"I can retrieve footage of your current actions from the plane's surveillance cameras later. All of this will get presented before the court, and I can assure you that you'll lose your jobs."

The personnel's faces changed. That outcome was what they feared the most, yet Kate was discussing it with such certainty, making it clear that the two would unquestionably lose their jobs.

The lead personnel couldn’t stand anymore, so he whipped out his gun and aimed it at Kate. “You'll pay for what you just said!"

A second later, he felt a chill creeping all over his face. He lost mobility simultaneously, unable to draw strength from his muscles. He eventually fell to the ground.

All he felt was his face warming up like a hot iron, and even opening his lips felt impossible. He tried to open his eyes but failed. There was nothing he could do.

Kate shut her eyes once the gun aimed at her. Although Kate was terrified, she could not bring herself to stand down as that was the first time a person had looked at her with such confidence.

Not to mention, Darius was the only one who could help her father. There was no guarantee that Darius’ subordinates would not blame Kate's father and make him pay back in kind if Darius got hurt. Thus, she needed to defend Darius now.

Just when she thought she would join Elizabeth in hell for another argument, the other security personnel yelled out Darius’ name.

That shocked Kate, and she opened her eyes without thinking twice. She then saw the lead personnel lying on the ground, his face pallid while his eyes were round with fear.

The personnel clambered onto his feet and stumbled toward the other personnel, whose features stiffened with shock.
