Chapter 309

"I’ve always wanted live in a normal family, but I never got it.That’s why I’ve lost all hope of having that life."

Only silence came from Darius as his nostrils slightly flared without anyone noticing.

At that moment, Darius knew things had gotten settled.

Maurice had been looking out the car window for some time now.

Thus, he saw everything that happened.

Now that Edward had returned, Maurice turned to look at Darius with a complicated expression.

All he asked was, "Mr.Reid? Are you someone with loads of money?"

Darius instantly understood what the boy meant and responded with an unexpectedly calm tone, "That I am.However, I don’t think poorer people should get killed at random or have their dignity attacked by others.I know what you’re thinking—I shouldn't have executed Austin Anderson."

Those candid words made Maurice’s eyes widen.

Yet, his gaze quickly returned to normal as he leaned into the seat, presenting himself with a calmer demeanor as he nodded.

"Yeah, that’s what I was thinking.He’s the same age as me, and he’s always gotten sheltered by his family, which makes him ignorant of many things.So, I feel you should’ve tried to forgive him earlier."
