Chapter 260
Darius was sure he had looked at everyone present, yet he could not determine the source of the voice.
That was because he did not see anyone open their mouths when the person spoke.
It rattled Darius.
Still, he kept a blank countenance with both hands in his pockets.
"If any of you guys find those words reasonable," Darius said calmly, "Then you should be helping this hostess out instead of allowing her to stay here and start trouble."
He sounded so unbothered that no one dared look into his eyes.
In truth, he found it silly how the person's retort made everyone, including the security guard earlier, glower at him in distaste.
Thus, he turned to face Erin, instructing, "That lady looks like the epitome of all hostesses.Her dress, shoes, necklace, earrings, and every little accessory appears expensive.On top of that, her hands are smooth, free from any scars or wrinkles caused by hard labor.That said, I’d like to know what she used to do before working here, and I believe you can give me an answer at once."
Erin looked up at that moment, her face lighting up as she took ina look of trust from Darius.Her heart raced as she nodded and whipped out her phone in a split second.
"I had the same doubts as you, Mr.Reid.Here's all the information I found earlier."
Following that, she flashed her pearly whites, smirking at the hostess.
There was nothing the hostess could do except stand her ground.
Nonetheless, her breathing deepened as she balled her fists by her sides, her features hardening at Erin.
"Quit beating around the bush! Since you claim to know things, there’s no need to utter such unnecessary things to attract everyone’s attention.I have the utmost confidence that no one here will fall for your lies!"
"Perfect." Erin’s smirk broadened.
"I'll admit I'm shocked to hear you say that, Miss Gillette."
Sharp inhales came from everyone at the scene.
Soon, every person held their breath, indicating how collectively startled they were by the truth.
The Gillette family was the oldest and most renowned family in Almiron city.
