Chapter 116

“Mr. Reid! There is trouble!” Erin yelled anxiously from the other end of the phone the moment Darius answered the phone call.

Darius frowned at Erin‘s anxious tone. Since he knew Erin, she had always been composed no matter the situation. Now that she was this anxious, he could guess that the matter wasn‘t so simple.

“Erin, calm down and talk to me. What is going on?” Darius asked steadfastly.

“As for the cause of the accident, the chairman was said to ...”
