Chapter 309

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

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.

"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."
