Chapter 230

"After all, you're Darius Reed. I'll do anything I can to help you.

Darius looked at his watch. "I don't have much time left for you. The Gillette family's going to be here
soon."

Shelvin's eyes widened as he looked at Darius in disbelief. "How's that possible? Shouldn't they have
their hands full right now?

Why would they show up here?"

Darius glanced at Samantha. "I think the answer to that probably has something to do with this woman,
but I don't know exactly what it is. You can look into the matter yourself and tell me the answer once
you have it." He stretched his neck.

Erin hurried over to him. She sized Shelvin up, then frowned. "Mr. Reid, what's he doing here?"

Shelvin was a little hurt by her question. He raised his voice in dissatisfaction and said, "Hey, you may
be beautiful, but you can't be so contemptuous of me! I'm a great guy, and plenty of women were
interested in me even before I became an enlightened martial artist. They were practically dying for me
to marry them, but that wasn't what I..."

Erin cut him off. "Yeah, I'm not interested in that. I need to speak to Mr. Reid about work, and I don’t
think you should be here."

Shelvin gaped and looked at her in shock. "How can you say that? I'm here for your chairman's sake,
you know! I mean, it's obvious that you like him, but you can't insult me like that. It's really hurtful, and I
don't think it's smart to treat your future colleague like that."



Erin looked at him in confusion, then turned to Darius. Darius raised an eyebrow but didn't avert his
gaze and continued looking at Samantha.

Now, she looked like the professional lobby manager she was supposed to be.

This was different from how she'd looked earlier and wasn't the same as how she'd looked when she'd
first appeared.

Darius found this odd, but he didn’t say anything. Just as he was deep in thought, a shrill scream rang
out. He whipped his head around to look at Erin and found her lying on the floor. He frowned, narrowed
his eyes, and then bent down to help her. As he did so, he heard Shelvin say,

"My dearest Darius, you'll thank me when you hear what I’m about to say. This woman named
Samantha Williams is Hank Gillette's fiancee."

Darius raised an eyebrow. Hank was the sole heir of the Gillette family. There was no way he would’ve
missed news of Hank getting engaged. He looked at Shelvin doubtfully, and it made Shelvin feel
uncomfortable.

He rubbed his nose and said, "You don't have to look at me like that because I'm telling you the truth.
It's an unspoken tradition among wealthy families for the heirs or heiresses to have a childhood
sweetheart who becomes their spouse."

Darius scrutinized him. When he was sure Shelvin wasn't pulling his leg, he took a deep breath and
said thoughtfully, ‘That just makes things weirder. Samantha's father is a business partner of mine, and
his wealth isn't enough to make the Gillette family recognize her as Hank's future wife.

However, that's exactly what they did, and they did it long ago too."



As Darius tried to puzzle this out, Shelvin said, "Before this, there were rumors that there was
something off about this fiancee’s mental state. I didn't believe for a second that the Gillette family
would choose such a person to become the future chairman's wife-it was much too risky. Now,
however, I believe it."

Darius looked at him in confusion. "Why? Was it because of her mood swings? Also, it’s not like you
witnessed it. You only heard some rumors." Shelvin raised an eyebrow and looked at Darius in
surprise. "Wait, you're an enlightened martial artist-a powerful one, too-but you don't know this? It's
common knowledge among martial artists."

Darius said baldly, "Indeed, I don’t. My awakening was an odd process, and nobody knew about it,
so..." He shrugged.

Shelvin’s eyes lit up. He started trembling, then suddenly grabbed Darius’ wrist. Darius looked at his
hand with displeasure. He didn't say anything, though. He wanted to know what Shelvin was up to.

Soon, something surprising happened. Shelvin didn’t do anything else after grabbing him. Instead, he
looked at him with bright eyes and said, "Wait, so you're the legendary genius?" Without waiting for a
response, he nodded confidently and continued,

"You have to be! Only a genius would become enlightened without anyone finding out!"

Darius was a little lost for words, but he didn't deny this. "Maybe you're right, but I think you should let
go of my arm and tell me why you think there's something wrong with Samantha's mental state."

Shelvin immediately let go of Darius when he sensed the shift in his emotions, then took two steps
back, keeping what he felt was a Safe distance between them.
