The next morning…
Nicholai didn't ask for Darius to show up in the send-off, simply because he knew what these leaders thought of his mate. To them, Nicholai was the only one worthy of their fears. As for Darius, he was nothing but a plaything that Gilbert Gillard couldn't have taken advantage of and one that Audrey Gillard threw in the trash bin. None of them would respect Darius, but Nicholai still had a use for these leaders.
If they didn't have any use, he would have crushed them limb by limb for Darius to see.
He stood there with Julian, regarding all the other leaders as they got in their cars to leave the estate. They had been held in the estate prison for a good week, and it's not like they didn't have their own problems in their own places to deal with. Instead of playing around, Madeleine just asked Road to drive away at first notice.
