Chapter 66

Angela’s POV

“Even if I say I didn’t kill him, would you believe me?”

He asked, his gaze settling on mine. He slowly moved his eyes to my lips and I suddenly felt tongue–tied. It was obvious he was waiting for me to say something but I couldn’t find the word.

“I don’t know what to believe anymore. People are talking and I can…”

He cupped my face, staring into my soul. “Something happened, am I wrong? Someone said something to you and that pissed you off. Instead of waiting, you came right into my office, made me walk those men out just so you can have all of my attention,”

I bit down on my bottom lip. “I didn’t ask you to walk them out,” I argued.

“I didn’t say you did but you’re still getting punished later,”

He winked at me and I found myself blushing.

I looked down, trying to avoid his gaze and at the same time, trying not to forget the reason why I came to him in the first place.

“I need an answer, Darius,” I reminded him. My anger had disappeared already and it made me realize I was actually angry at my sister, not Darius. I suddenly regret my action of barging into his office.

“I didn’t kill your father. If anything, I warned him about the accident before it happened but he must’ve trusted my father more than me. I mean, I broke his daughter’s heart,”

His answer put my mind at ease. I was relieved to find out my sister was wrong about him. That what the people were saying about Darius wasn’t true.

“Does that mean you’re not a murderer?” I asked him.

He scoffed. “What? Do you think not being your father’s murderer makes me a no–murderer at all?”

I frowned.

“You’re too innocent for your own good, my Angel. I’ve killed people but never touched an innocent person. All those that I’ve killed deserved it,”

He slipped his hand into his pocket as he walked to his desk. “Come here, baby,” he said. I approached him, taking the hand he extended to me. With a firm grip on my waist, he lifted me onto the desk. Darius smirked, then slid between my thighs, wrapping an arm around my waist.
