Chapter 287

Darius knew that he was just in a rush to leave so that he could investigate him, so he didn't keep him
waiting. He said calmly,

"You can leave if you want to, but there’s a price to pay"

His calmness made Holt doubt himself more. However, he didn’t want to ruin his credibility by changing
his attitude again, so he met Darius’ gaze, forcing himself to remain calm. Before he verified Darius'
identity, he could only treat him as an equal.

“Name it—l'll give it to you as long as it's something I can afford.”

"Kate." This was Darius' response.

Holt was momentarily shocked by this, but he soon smiled and waved a hand. "Your wish is my
command." He watched Darius closely, wanting to see his joyous expression. To his disappointment,
Darius's face remained devoid of emotion. Holt gulped, planning his next move.

Then, he saw Darius wave a hand and say, "Get this straight- everything I said to you earlier has a time
limit. If you're still standing there when I change my mind, you'll have to hold up your end of the
bargain, but I won't allow you to leave anymore.”

Holt's expression changed, feeling like he'd heard this somewhere before. He quickly turned and left
without looking back. He'd brought plenty of men with him, and none of them had expected things to
turn out like this. They remained rooted to the spot, unsure of what to do.

When Darius saw that they didn't show any signs of leaving, he stretched his neck and frowned. "It
seems that you guys don't seem to trust your boss much. He's already gone, but you guys are still
here." He was only making a simple statement, but the men ran away without another word.



When they were all gone, he turned to look at Calypso.

She’d made such a fool of herself earlier, and her shrill voice had hurt his ears time and time again.
Darius was about to say something to her when he heard someone hurrying toward him. He turned to
see Benji standing before him, and he frowned.

He thought Benji was here to plead on Calypso's behalf, but he was wrong. Benji said seriously, "Now
that Holt's gone, we can continue with our earlier discussion.”

"You mean when you wanted me to blame you for all the mistakes Kate's made? Because she didn't
have any parents to educate her?"

Benji nodded. "Yes, that's exactly how things were. I watched her grow up, so I should be held
accountable for everything she does correctly and wrongly. Also, she hasn't had many friends growing
up, nor has she been exposed to much. She still has plenty of room to grow, and I'm sure she'll make
many mistakes in this process. I can’t watch over her forever, though." He looked at Darius calmly.

Kate stood at the villa's entrance, listening to their conversation. Tears rolled down her face; she cried
for both Darius and Benji. She wanted to leave the villa, but Wilson blocked her every time she was
close to succeeding.

This time, she decided to try something different. She was on the second floor and inched toward one
of the windows.

Wilson didn't pay much attention to her since they weren't near the entrance. He concentrated on the
computer before him, wanting to finish up the agreement on the stock rights transfer before Darius
returned. That way, he could leave this place as soon as possible.

He was reluctant to leave but didn’t want to face Darius a second longer than necessary. Also, he didn't
want to bear the brunt of Darius’ anger if anything were to happen.



Suddenly, he heard the sound of a loud thud. He whipped around to see that Kate was no longer
standing by the window. He had a bad feeling about this and hurried over to the window to see Kate
scrambling to her feet outside the villa.

She'd injured one of her legs when landing, dragging it behind her as she hurried over to Darius and
Benji. Wilson placed a hand over his racing heart, thinking that he'd be the first person Darius would
come after if he were in a bad mood. After thinking things over, he chose to remain where he was.

On the other hand, Kate had already caught Darius’ attention. He looked at her with a frown, then
turned back to Benji. Benji wasn't a martial artist, so he didn't have Darius’ sensitive hearing.

But when Darius looked away from him, he instinctively followed his line of sight to see Kate hurrying
toward them with an injured leg! He clenched his fists and ran over to her, pulling her behind him and
looking into the distance. He didn't see anything unusual, though.

Benji turned to look at Kate in confusion, but he didn't say anything when he saw her crying. After a
moment of silence, he asked carefully, "Do you want to tell me why you're crying? Perhaps I'll be able
to help you resolve whatever problems you're facing."

Kate looked up at him. When he saw that she wasn't crying anymore, he sighed in relief. She looked at
him carefully and asked in return, "Do you mean it?"

Benji's heart twisted when he saw her like this; he'd never seen her act so cautiously before. He
nodded seriously and said, “Of course."

She broke into a smile.
