Chapter 220

"Therefore, can you pretend nothing happened on this plane and continue doing what you're supposed
to? 1’

The captain nodded without hesitation. He held a trembling hand out and said, "There's no way I'll turn
down your request. May I shake your hand?"

Edward shrugged and nodded. He relaxed a little and said, "If you're willing, I can take a photo with
you."

The captain's face glowed with excitement. His lips were trembling so badly that he couldn't say a
word, and he'd even teared up. He shuffled over to Edward, then pulled out his phone with trembling
hands and snapped a blurry photo.

Darius saw that there was no way to tell who was in the photo, so he smiled helplessly and took the
phone from the captain.

Then, he aimed the camera at them and said, "Let's take another photo. The other one was blurred."

Bridget walked over to Erin's side, his hands behind his back as she gaped at the scene before them. It
felt so surreal. When Erin heard how uneven her breathing was, she knew Bridget was shocked. She
turned to look at

Bridget and said, "There's no need to be surprised. Mr. Reid must have his reasons for doing this. All
we have to do is wait, and our questions will eventually be answered. You’re being too obvious, and
that's not a good thing for Mr. Reid."

Erin tried to keep her voice as low as possible so only Darius and Bridget heard her. A trace of surprise
flashed in Darius’ eyes. He glanced at Erin without anyone noticing, then put a hand behind his back



before sliding the phone back into the captain's pocket. "Alright, it's time for you to get back to work. I
don't think you need to worry about Kate. She's fine now."

Kate was still shocked. She never would've expected someone who'd been extremely loyal to her
father only to have eyes for Edward. Still, she was happy about this. After all, she wanted her staff to
treat Darius as well as she did. Though the captain hadn't been nice to Darius, he practically worshiped
Edward, which was good enough. At least it wouldn’t make things between him and Darius too
awkward. She buried this thought deep in her mind, but the look in her eyes betrayed her.

The captain wanted to continue speaking with Edward, but he knew not to be greedy. He forced himself
to turn around and walk away from Edward.

Darius narrowed his eyes. He was running out of patience. If the captain didn't snap out of it, he would
say something nasty.

Fortunately, the cabin crew didn’t allow that to happen. The captain only took a few steps when one of
the flight attendants ran up to him and whispered something into his ear. Darius heard her clearly as an
enlightened martial artist, but no one else did.

She said, "Captain, the plane's about to land. You have to return to the cockpit immediately."

The captain didn't say anything but quickly headed for the cockpit. Darius wanted to see this, so he
didn't say anything. He merely sat down in his seat and looked at Kate. "We should all sit down,
shouldn’t we? The plane should be landing soon."

Kate checked the time and nodded. "Yes, you're right." Then, she sat down.

Erin took her seat next to Darius, then started breathing deeply. Darius glanced at her, making her
nervous. She smiled and said, "Mr. Reid, I'm always like this when it's almost time to land. Flying



always exhausts me."

She thought Darius was going to reprimand her, but she was wrong. He merely smiled and said lightly,
"I thought you'd be tired because of everything that’s happened. In fact, you were working hard before
we boarded."

Kate had never heard him use such a gentle tone before, and without even realizing what she was
doing, she quickly whipped her head around to glare daggers at Erin. She'd even opened her mouth to
warn her off, but her rationality kicked in at this point and stopped her. After a short pause, she turned
back around.

Erin had caught her death glare, but she didn't say anything. Darius sensed the change in atmosphere
and narrowed his eyes- this wasn't something he wanted to see. Neither of these women belonged to
him, and he didn't want to waste time smoothing things out between them, but it seemed that he didn't
have a choice. However, he didn't say anything since Kate hadn't acted.

When the plane landed, he took a deep breath. This was his first time feeling mentally exhausted after
returning to the Reid Consortium, so the moment they could get off the plane, he got to his feet and
strode off without a word.

This was Erin's first time receiving such treatment.
