Chapter 431
“But make sure you remember my surname—Gillette!”Darius raised an eyebrow at his words. Then, he bowed his head and lowered his eyes to the ground. It didn’t conceal his laughter, though. The board member in his fifties glared daggers at him—he was a shareholder of the Gillette Group, and it was his main source of income. Now, however, Darius had ruined everything. No one would allow such a person to continue appearing before themselves.The board member in his fifties looked at Darius with unbridled hatred, but Darius merely shrugged and smiled. Instead of making him look more approachable, it only made him seem inexplicably colder and crueler, and none dared look at him aside from the dark-suited board member who was still on the ground and the board member in his fifties.The dark-suited board member was still under Darius’ foot, so he had no choice but to look at Darius. Seeing him up close made the man’s heart tremble, but at the same time, he was relieved that Darius wasn’t wa

The Gillette man didn’t make a sound, and neither did the dark-suited board member, who was still lying on the floor. Darius had long since stopped stepping on him, but he remained there unmoving. Darius didn’t understand his reason for doing this, but he paid the board member no heed. He just sat down and said lazily, “Well, I’m glad none of you have any objection to transferring the ownership of the shares. It looks like we’ll be working together from now on.”The other board members trained their gazes on the table before them, not wanting to spare Darius a glance. To them, it was a terrible disgrace. At the same time, neither of them said anything in response to Darius’ words. At this moment, the dark-suited board member was the only one to make a move. He quickly sat up and shouted, “I object! I’m against Ansel Brezinski transferring the ownership of his shares to you and allowing you to join the board of directors!” He looked at Darius with a determined gaze, held his head hi

“I won’t allow you to do anything other than agree with me.”Suddenly, the dark-suited board member pointed at Darius. His gaze was trained on the other board members, however. He bellowed, “Do you see this? I was right! He refuted everything aside from his family, so he must’ve been lying about everything else!” He turned to glare at Darius. “I’ve been kind and patient enough with you, so you should be smart and not cross the line.”Darius raised an eyebrow. This time, he didn’t say anything. He was sure the dark-suited board member had more to say. As if to prove he was right, the board member continued, “Now, you’re only left with one option—which is to do as I say! Take my shares, then get the fuck out of here!” He sat down and continued lazily, “I’m sure if there were any family wealthier than mine, I’d have some sort of recollection of them—even if someone would need to help jog my memory. Besides, no wealthy family would produce an heir like you!” He looked at Darius scornfu

e put it on the table, then tapped it lightly.Ice-cold fury washed over the dark-suited board member, and he seemed to lose control over his facial features. He glared daggers at Darius, and his chest heaved. He stalked toward Darius, growling, “You’ve got guts, and you’re among the few who’ve dared doubt me. Now, I’ll gladly show you the price you have to pay for your attitude!”Though he hadn’t seen his attacker, he was sure Darius was the only person who could be behind it. Darius was the only person with that sort of ability, and his scorn was obvious. He saw Darius tapping on something on the table, but he didn’t see what it was. His rage had reached its peak and burned any sense of rationality left in him. In the next second, he felt a familiar gust of wind coming at him. This time, it was stronger than before and sent him flying, making him crash against the wall.Darius stood up, no longer wanting to waste time with the dark-suited board member. He looked at the other board

He looked at Darius, wanting to do something to change his mind. However, when he heard Darius rhythmically knock on the table, he knew there was no turning back. The dark-suited board member paled. He’d taken precautionary measures to stop Darius from going back on his word, and his men were waiting outside the room.His eyes widened with fear. The rhythm with which Darius was knocking on the table was the secret signal the dark-suited board member had agreed upon with his men, and he didn’t expect anyone to know about this. Now, he was proven wrong. Not only did Darius know about it, but he also seemed to be extremely familiar with it.Darius sensed the fearful gaze on him and looked up with a slight smile. It made the dark-suited board member twitch because he knew it wasn’t a smile of joy. On the contrary, it was cold and threatening. It seemed that nothing could escape Darius’ notice. The dark-suited board member shut his eyes, only opening them after a long while. There was n

Darius raised an eyebrow, not expecting to run into someone with such a mindset in a place like this. After hesitating for a few seconds, he repeated the young man’s last sentence.The young man immediately smiled when he heard this and looked up at the dark-suited board member. Then, his mind processed what had happened, and his expression turned into shock, doubt, anger, and disbelief. He turned to look at Darius. At the same time, he stumbled backward, pressed one hand to his chest, and pointed the other at Darius. “You… why do I feel like you’re trying to frame me? There’s no bad blood between us, is there? Why are you doing this to me?”Darius chuckled. He was about to say something in response when the young man shouted, “No, don’t answer me! Just swipe your card and repay my master whatever you owe him.” Then, he ran over to the dark-suited board member and tugged his sleeve. He said seriously, “Sir, I didn’t do anything. You’re a witness to everything I’ve done since steppin

All he knew was that he’d suddenly lost his balance while watching things play out, and he’d stumbled in Darius’ direction. In that instant, he thought, “I’m dead meat.” He watched as the distance between him and Darius shortened, but he didn’t think it was something worth being happy over. Then, something flashed before him, and there was now nothing between him and the floor. He relaxed and let himself fall to the floor with a loud crash.The dark-suited board member’s eyes twitched at the loud thud, and he looked up at Darius. “Mr. Reid, Timmy may not be the smartest, but he’s strong. He’s been by my side since he was a child; he may have just been there to practice martial arts with me, but he’s put plenty of effort into his training. He’s not the best, but he’ll probably be of a little more use than a normal employee.”His gaze was now calm and settled. “Everything that’s happened today just shows how much of a loser I am, which means I’m no longer in the running to become my fa

Darius heard someone’s phone vibrate, and he turned to look at the other board members. He smiled when he saw them sitting there silently with their backs straight. “Now that we’ve taken care of everything, you can leave if you want to.” He grabbed the contract, then strode out of the conference room. Now, he owned 94.5% of FT TV’s shares, meaning his opinion was the only one that mattered here. That wasn’t his style, however.When he stepped out of the conference room and saw the numerous gazes trained on him, he knew what was up. They’d all heard about what had happened in the room. This was one of the main reasons he’d insisted on getting the dark-suited board member’s shares—before the meeting, he’d already sensed the eyes and ears on them.It was a shock. To him, this wasn’t something a normal company would allow, but a TV station had allowed word to get out. And that was why everyone already knew about what happened. Darius believed that the other TV stations would already be
