Chapter 294

She swiftly gave Calypso a kick in the back, making her lose her balance and hurtle toward the ground.

However, Bridget was still holding on to her, so half of her body was on the ground while the other half

was in the air.

Then, two things fell out of her pocket, attracting everyone's attention.

Darius had been watching Calypso. He still had some questions for her, and he frowned when he saw

the things that had fallen out of her pockets. He walked over to her and picked them up, an ugly look

creeping onto his face when he realized what they were.

Bridget felt it’d been a while since she’d seen Darius like this. She wanted to see what he was holding

but couldn't because she was still pinning

Calypso down. She couldn’t afford to let her guard down around such a cunning woman.

Fortunately, Darius showed her what the things were. "This is surveillance equipment. Everything that

happened earlier has already been sent to someone."

Bridget frowned, then said seriously, "Her people must be around here somewhere." Darius didn't know

about this, so he didn't say anything. Bridget knew he was waiting for her to explain.

"I had a signal blocker installed here beforehand, and I turned it on when we came here. I was worried

that someone would record a video of you fighting and spread it, so I had to make sure there wasn't

any signal available. It would only work if someone used shortwaves, like for remote controls."

Darius raised an eyebrow. This was his first time hearing this, so he pulled his phone out and checked

it. There should've been a full bar where the signal was, but it was currently empty.

He frowned and looked at Calypso, who was facedown on the ground. She couldn't look up at him, but

she could still hear his footsteps.

She couldn’t stop trembling when she saw Darius’ shoes appear in her line of sight, but she didn't dare

respond this time. He smiled when he looked down at her and noticed that even her lashes were

trembling. He knew what she was going to do.

Calypso started to frown because Darius' reaction wasn't within her expectations. He didn't swiftly get

rid of her, which was unlike what that person had told her.

As she tried to think of a way to end this, what Darius said next made her hair stand on end. "Are you

thinking that I should be putting an end to you right now?”

Everyone looked at him in shock. He leaned against one of the benches in the garden and sighed.

Then, he shook his head and looked around at all the members of the Anderson family with a mocking

expression.

"You guys are stupider than I thought. As a well-protected woman, Calypso Anderson doesn’t have the

ability to gather this many members of the Anderson family. I'm positive she can't remember most of

your names."

Their expressions changed. Darius stood up, brushed the dust off his clothes, then he held Calypso's

wrist. It made her feel like her bones were going to shatter, and she lost the strength to speak.

Benji watched this happen, feeling like he couldn't stand by without doing anything. He took a step

forward and said, "Darius." Suddenly, someone tugged on his sleeve. He frowned, knowing that it had

to be Kate. He took a deep breath and made a difficult choice.

Darius' gaze flitted toward him, and when he saw that Benji didn't continue, he said coldly, "If you're still

hoping to take her home, I’ll ensure that the rest of the Anderson family shares the blame for the

mistakes she's made." He removed his hand from Calypso's wrist and looked around at everyone

present.

Then, he smiled and said, "Of course, if I were to do that, none of you would escape unscathed." He

straightened up and stretched his shoulders, then took a step back. "You can take her away now.”

After that, he sidestepped Benji and walked toward Wilson. "I suppose that the contract is ready since

you came here to look for me."

Wilson looked into his eyes, not daring to allow his true feelings to show. He didn’t know how Darius

would take it. He nodded stiffly and said,

"Yes, I've finished drafting the contract per your request, so you can go through it now. You can sign it if

you’re okay with the terms; once that’s done, the Gillette Group and everything under my name-

excluding cash will belong to you."
