The Consortium's Heir novel Chapter 280

Chapter 280

Darius didn't say anything, though. There wasn't any need to because Kate had already started screeching, "Calypso Anderson, let go of Darius this instant, and I'll turn a blind eye to what you've done so far. Once my father's back, I won't tell him about this, either."

Calypso quickly stopped when she heard this. Then, she whipped around so swiftly that her hair whipped against Darius’ face. He frowned but didn't say anything.

Calypso wanted to let go of him but didn't dare do so. She knew that someone of his wealth definitely had bodyguards protecting him, but for some reason, they hadn't done anything to her.

If she were to let go of him at this moment, there was no way Darius’ bodyguards would let her off the hook.

She discreetly took in her surroundings at this thought, but no one appeared. She relaxed a little, looked at Kate, and said lowly, "Kate, your father's still alive, isn't he? You know where he is and how he's doing.” Her tone went from being questioning to certain.

Kate didn't expect this to be the matter that concerned her the most and didn't know how to answer her. She stood in silence and looked back at Calypso.

Benji's eyes widened and reddened, quickly filling with tears. He opened his mouth to ask Kate what was happening but ultimately didn't. He shut his eyes, took a deep breath, and remained silent.

Kate didn't notice this; all her attention was on Calypso. Calypso was all she had eyes for at the moment. She shrugged, looking nonchalant. "Yes, you're right-1 know where my father is and how he's doing.”

Amyriad of emotions flashed across Calypso's face, eventually forming a mask of agitation and joy. There was even an acceptable amount of blame and relaxation in her eyes. "Oh, you. Why didn't you tell us about this earlier?"

She turned to look at a young woman among the crowd as she spoke. She dabbed her tears away and hurried toward her, reaching out to hold her hand. "Leah, did you hear that? Your uncle’s still alive! Judging from the way your cousin looks, he must be doing fine. I bet it's because your prayers have been granted.” She crossed herself and said softly,” God bless."

A small snicker rang out, making Calypso’s expression turn steely. Her eyes flitted across everyone present, but all of them were smiling. She wasn't sure whether she could leave this place without feeling humiliated today. After all, everyone knew what she was here for-to get rid of Kate and get her hands on all of William’s shares.
