Chapter 283

##He was caught up in his shock at Calypso's words. He opened his mouth a few times to say

something but failed. It only made Calypso angrier. She panted loudly and turned away from him, her

gaze landing on Darius.

Suddenly, she smiled, making a chill run down the spines of everyone present. This didn't include

Darius, of course. He stood there with his hands in his pockets, looking exactly the same as normal.

This surprised Calypso. She walked over to him, wanting to touch his face. However, she'd only started

reaching out when he grabbed her wrist. Then, a sharp pain shot through her arm. This was completely

out of her expectations.

Her face twisted with pain. Darius looked at her, his face devoid of emotion and his voice calm. “It's

been a while since I last came across someone with such nerve. Let me try to recall how the last

person died."

He looked at her mildly, but it made her shudder. Despite this, she didn't look away from him. Her

hatred was obvious, and she didn't back down. In fact, she spat at him.

Benji wanted to step forward to stop her but ended up not doing so. Calypso noticed this and laughed.

"Why aren't you getting him to let go of me? You shielded Kate when you thought Darius was going to

hurt her. Do you know how many times I've experienced this? Ever since Kate was born, none of you

have had eyes for me. It's as if she was the only person all of you could see. You guys would give her

everything she wanted, regardless of who the thing belonged to."

She turned to look at Darius and continued,

"I know you're a wealthy man, but you should know that plenty of people are wealthier than you. In fact,

one of them gave me a portion of his wealth in exchange for a small favor -to destroy you so that you

wouldn't be able to inherit your father's fortune. And that's why Kate appeared in your room. The video

of you two together will soon be sent to her fiance. He’s wealthier than you can imagine and comes

from a powerful family. I was originally quite excited to see how things would play out, but it looks like I

won't have the chance to anymore-l doubt you'll let me leave this place alive." Her eyes were dull as

she said, "Do you feel wronged that I've dragged you into this mess just because of my own hatred?"

Darius found her question to be nonsensical. He raised an eyebrow, not intending to answer her. To his

surprise, she didn't seem to expect one. She continued,

"Honestly, you're not blameless in this. You have so many women around you, and you seem to be

involved with all of them. Someone took a photo of you with them and posted it online, so I decided to

pick you for this."

Darius frowned and tightened his grip. Calypso was prepared for it this time, so she frowned without

making a sound. She looked at Darius with a hint of contempt, but it didn't bother him. His voice was

frosty as he said, "So, you were the one behind what happened at the airport?" He stared into her

eyes.

Calypso didn't think she'd have the chance to see him mad, and a trace of delight appeared in her

eyes. She shook her head and said, "No, I had nothing to do with that. I thought about it, but I didn't

have the ability to do so. I'm thankful to whoever did, though."

This wasn't the answer Darius expected. Calypso kept her eyes trained on his face so that she wouldn't

miss any of his expressions. She immediately caught the surprise and confusion in his eyes and

smiled.

"If I were you, that'd be the least of my worries now. Kate's fianc6. Holt Arnov, will be here in no time."

Her expression turned gleeful. "It's too bad that I won't be able to witness you two getting into a fight,

but you're not going to win.

Holt's a professional boxer, and he's internationally renowned. Don't worry-l'll be waiting for you in hell.

I'm sure you'll join me in a second."

Benji took a deep breath at her words and said grimly," Calypso, don't say that. I won't allow Darius to

hurt you."

Calypso didn't expect to hear him say this. Despite her face paling from the pain of Darius' grip around

her wrist, she still turned to look at Benji with shock. She smiled when she met his calm gaze and said,

"You can drop the act; it's not like I'll believe you. Also, I’m not a child. I won't fall for your lies."
