Chapter 265
Confusion shrouded Wilson’s face.He no longer needed to hide his emotions as he was now hell-bent on killing Darius.
Thus, he did not conceal his desire to know what the latter meant.
Yet, he also knew he would not believe it even if Darius had told him the truth, so he turned to look at his secretary.
The secretary was a gorgeous woman in a bodycon dress with a deep V-neckline.
Heels clicking, she approached Wilson’s side and held a laptop with her manicured hands.
"Sir, I've just found out," she said in a voice as seductive as her appearance.
It felt intentional.
She pointed at Bridget while she continued, "Those bodyguards became nervous after this woman appeared.She’s a skilled bodyguard and could’ve easily taken down everyone earlier."
Wilson’s jaw dropped wide open.He felt it was impossible, so he examined his secretary with a look of suspicion.
Seeing that made the secretary sway her hips as she stepped closer to Wilson, reaching out to grab his hand.
"Why are you looking at me like that, Mr.Gillette? Don’t you believe me?" Her eyes reddened, and she pouted at him.
Much to her surprise, not a single person at the scene paid her pitiful display any mind, except for Wilson.
Wilson remained emotionless but circled an arm around his secretary's shoulder, pulling her into his embrace.
While doing that, his hateful gaze remained on Darius.
"I know you're someone with endless wealth, Darius.But your wealth doesn’t matter here in Almiron City.The people only know one affluent household, and that’s the Gillette family!"
Shockingly, Darius did not seem bothered at all.
In fact, nothing changed about the latter’s behavior, which only ticked Wilson off more.
The taste of bitter defeat and getting ignored became foreign to him after he shot to his wealthy status ten years ago—until Darius appeared.
Boiling rage and a determination to kill Darius exuded from Wilson’s eyes that no longer remained stoic.
Wilson stood tall before snarling in a low, threatening tone, "Men, get a move on! I want him dead at once!"
The men in black then aimed their weapons at Darius, firing simultaneously as a series of bullets getting loaded filled the air.
Bridget was quick to vanish from where she stood.
Apart from Darius, no one else at the scene could see where she had gone.
All the others knew was that one-third of their guns mysteriously disappeared from their hands, and they had fallen on the ground within a breath’s time.
