Chapter 273
A relieved sigh slipped out of Wilson when he saw Darius slowing to a halt. In his eyes, that meant the
latter was willing to help him. However, he was oblivious to how Darius was one step ahead and had
figured out the tank meant bad news.
Darius had merely stopped to ponder the best course of action-to let Wilson die now or save him.
He did not have to think for much longer, though, as a man soon exited one of the tanks and
approached him with a baseball bat.
Darius then quirked a brow before deciding to stay silent.
Contrarily, the approaching man did not share the same sentiment. He stood before Darius, rage
causing the tips of his ears to redden. He gripped the baseball bat so hard that even the veins running
down his forearms popped.
Still, he gritted his teeth, suppressing his wrath to say, “I’m Benji Anderson. I believe you've guessed
my family background now that you know my last name."
Darius’ brows raised upon seeing the former. He never thought someone could behave so formally
despite being furious.
Impressed, he nodded and replied, "What's your relationship with Kate?"
“I'm her dad's younger brother.” Benji jutted his chin while swinging the baseball bat over his shoulder.
After making Darius see he was grabbing something, he fished a phone out of his pocket and tossed it
at Darius.
Darius did not want the phone. Yet, that was when Kate rushed over, and he could tell from her hitched
breathing that she was in tears. Giving in, he sighed as he caught the phone that flew toward him. He
then switched it on and saw a surveillance video playing.

then switched it on and saw a surveillance video playing.
It showed him in a bathrobe, walking into the living room where Kate was getting changed. The video
cut off right after he sat down on the couch. Eventually, Darius looked at the top of the screen, realizing
the video was from a mainstream media platform.
What's worse, the video had already reached first place on the most viewed ranking. That made Darius'
brows furrow. He opened the comments section, where many shocked netizens were discussing.
"Oh! I recognize this man. He's the top student at Kingston University."
"Yeah, and he has a legendary family background! He's the heir to a wealthy company but got
separated from them when he was a kid."
"That's true, but why do I recall him having a girlfriend? I also remember him pestering her after they
broke up. Does it mean his so-called love for her was a lie?"
"My guess is that he now has so much money that he changed. He probably doesn't need to focus all
his effort on one woman anymore-he can get whoever he wants."
Darius’ eyes narrowed to slits at that moment. He knew such comments would negatively impact Reid
Consortium's subsidiary companies, which was a price he could not afford to pay, nor should it have
happened.
While the former brainstormed a way to alleviate the damages to his companies, Benji, who stood
opposite him, spoke.
"I don't know what your silence means, but I can confirm this-I won't approve of your relationship with
Kate before her dad returns. I don't care what happened between you two. I only came to warn you!
Stay away from my niece, and never show your face in Almiron City again!"
He pointed his bat at Darius again, continuing, "I'll let you leave if you promise to do what I said.
Otherwise, I'm sure you know what will happen."
Benji glowered menacingly at Darius while lifting the baseball bat high, ready to bash the latter's head
at a moment's notice.
That was the first thing Kate saw upon arriving at the main gates. Her eyes widened, and she cried out,
“No! Uncle Benji, please don't hit him! We barely know each other! I swear nothing happened between
us. Someone set us up in that video, so it's not what it looks like. We can't even stand being in the
same room!"
Her voice grew louder while her tone sharpened like a dagger, successfully stopping Benji in his tracks.
Benji's arms hung in the air. Still, he spun around to shoot a disapproving look at his niece.
"You're young and don’t understand the world well—this impoverished guy may pretend to love you,
but he'll do the same to others! As for his annoyance and whatever else he feels toward you, it's all his
plan to make you interested in him! He wants you to desire him and do everything in your power to
make him yours!”
His words rained down ferociously like a hailstorm.
Everyone's jaws fell agape as it was their first time hearing such a silly assessment. Nevertheless,
none of them, not even the people who arrived with Benji, voiced their thoughts.
Darius stood composedly opposite Benji. He put his hands in his pockets, saying, "If only you had
investigated the situation more thoroughly before showing up in front of me. That way, I wouldn't have
snickered at anything you said."
He thought he had given a good enough warning to Benji, but the latter did not seem affected. Benji did
not hesitate as he threw the baseball bat at Darius’ head. That unsettled Darius, who did not think Benji
would actually harm him.
Regardless, he moved quickly, flitting aside to dodge the incoming bat.
The bat landed a distance away with a loud thud. At the same time, it rammed into the ground so hard
that dust and soil shot into the air.
Some even splattered so far as to reach Darius’ eyes. It was a shocking scene for Darius, who knew
not all enlightened martial artists could achieve such force. Not even Shelvin had such ability.
On the other hand, Benji looked forward to hearing what Darius had to say.
Sadly, he did not get what he wanted.
