Chapter 254

Asigh slipped out Darius’ lips when he saw Erin behaving that way.He reached over to press the
autonomous driving function before speaking up.

"You need to calm down and park the car along the road.We'll continue this conversation then."

Erin began taking many deep breaths.

After she parked the car, Darius continued, "The mistakes you’ve made today aren’t because you
messed up—it’s because your mentality has changed.You've become more arrogant, thinking we can
use money as a crutch to do many things because we’re rich now."

In under a second, Erin’s eyes looked like they were about to pop out.

She turned to look at Darius, a whoosh sounding from her sudden movement.Her widened eyes soon
met Darius’ blank ones.She could not deny that Darius was right, and that this mentality was a mistake
that she never realized she was making.

Before she could respond, a loud bang sounded.

Their car violently jolted forward and began driving on its own.

There was nothing Erin could do to stop it, even if she pressed hard on the brakes.

A frown marred Darius’ face.He gripped the overhead handle with one hand while reaching out to pull
up the handbrake.

The car shook violently before screeching to a halt.



By then, Darius leaned into the seat, shut his eyes, and exhaled for the longest time before smoothing
down his clothes.He then got out of the car.

Once he saw the vehicle that crashed into them, his eyes sharpened like daggers.

Darius had seen that car’s license plate number during his investigation.

The information he found indicated this car belonged to the Gillette family.

With that in mind, Darius was ready to approach the vehicle when the sound of a driver’s seat door
slammed shut.

Turning around, he saw Erin walking over with a more concerned expression than before.

"What are you worrying about now?" Darius asked, his voice devoid of emotion.

Yet, Erin misinterpreted his question as him being angry, so her heart pounded with panic.She stood
before Darius with chattering teeth.

"M-Mr.Reid, I-I’m sorry! All of this is my fault!"

Her gaze was downcast, focusing on the ground, so she did pay attention to Darius’ countenance.

All she could do was speak meekly and quickly.

"If I hadn't made the wrong choice with the license plate, we wouldn’t be stuck here, and none of this
would’ve happened."

Darius felt even more helpless now that he knew what she was thinking.He sighed before consoling,
"This accident has nothing to do with you.The way you’re thinking now is dangerous.Perhaps you
should try seeing a psychiatrist."



While the two were engaged in their conflict, a man had alighted from the Gillette family’s vehicle.He
approached them and said, "I don’t think now is the best time for you guys to argue.After all, you guys
were the ones who crashed into my car."

That instantly ended Darius and Erin’s conversation.The two turned to scrutinize the man.

Both had wide eyes but chose to keep mum, as they were unsure how to react.

Even the atmosphere around them grew tense with silence.

It went on until the man grew impatient.

At that point, he locked eyes with the two and spoke up.

"Are you guys mute or something? How dare you not say anything after crashing into my car? I’ve
never met anyone like you here in Almiron City! You two are lowering the quality of our great city by
existing here, so you deserve to get punished!"

With that, the person fished out his phone and pointed it at Darius and Erin.

A flash then came from the phone.

Not a word came from Darius throughout the exchange as he could see the greed flashing in the man’s
eyes.

From that, he knew what the latter wanted and decided against saying anything.

Of course, Erin was unaware of Darius’ plans.

She let out a long sigh, her face hardening as she approached the man.



Many negative emotions brimmed in her heart since she had been super anxious and Darius had just
criticized her.

Thus, those emotions overflowed, oozing from her all at once.

She parted her lips, quickly speaking with a pointed tone.

"Has poverty made you lose your mind? Could it be that you stole this car you’re driving, huh? That
must be why you can’t afford the high prices that come with having this car, including its gas money,
maintenance, and the modified interiors!"

Her words confused everyone at the scene except Darius, who had one hand on his waist and the
other against his car.

Lips curled in amusement, Darius was eager to watch things unfold.

The man in a black leather jacket that came out of the Gillette family’s car kept opening and closing his
mouth.

Ultimately, he did not utter a word as he had no clue how to refute Erin’s nonsensical words.

He inhaled sharply, wanting to say something when Erin beat him to it.

She thundered at the top of her lungs, "You wanted to rebuke me yet did not know what to say, so you
kept quiet, huh? That proves what I've been saying is true! Even if you come up with some logical
reason now, I have reason to suspect you’re pulling excuses out of your ass! Because anyone can
easily make up a believable explanation for the crash after having so much time to think!"

Irritated, the man could not stand listening to what else Erin had to say.

He rolled up his sleeves and pointed at her.



"You may be pretty, but that doesn’t give you the right to show me up! Besides, money is not the only
thing that matters in Almiron City—those with stronger fists get the last word in any argument!"

He assumed Erin would be frightened by then, so he pretended like he was about to lunge at her.

Little did he expect Erin to raise her voice, bellowing at him with a threatening growl in her tone.

"Then your actions thus far prove you’re not wealthy—you’re just someone who uses brute force!
Besides, the car that got crashed isn’t yours.You can't afford to pay for the damages to your car, so
you’re trying to get the corresponding money from my chairman and me to appease your boss."

The man could no longer hold his temper.

One of his feet stomped on the hood of his car, then he pinched the collar of his shirt and pulled it up.
