The Consortium's Heir Chapter 1130
Darius' expression was scornful. "You're an officer from the authorities, but none of your actions are in line with your job's policies. I didn't say anything earlier because I couldn't be bothered. But now, it seems you're taking my kindness for granted."After saying that, he turned and strode into the building. He knew someone would be waiting there for him. Sure enough, a tall man with a scar on his face appeared.Darius raised an eyebrow and hummed in surprise. The officer with the scar narrowed his eyes at Darius, looking displeased. "Is that disdain I see on your face?"Darius shook his head. "Of course not. I think that scar on your face makes you look incredibly cool." He waited for the officer to lead the way.The officer with the scar gaped at him in disbelief. "Do you even know what you're saying?"Darius raised an eyebrow and nodded. "Yes, of course." They walked into the officer's office. The officer shut the door behind them and looked at Darius stormily.As he unbutton

"Have you looked into the matter? Do you have proof? If not, what right do you have to accuse me immediately upon meeting me?" Darius raised an eyebrow at the officer.The officer with the scar stopped abruptly and stared at Darius. His mind raced as he processed Darius' words. Darius was obviously saying that Noah was lying!The officer didn't speak. He'd experienced something similar in the past—the so-called victim was actually the perpetrator.He sighed and looked at Darius. "Allow me to apologize for my behavior. I don't know why I was so sure that the other guy was telling the truth. Something's obviously wrong here."If you're willing to give me some time to look into this matter, I'll definitely give you a proper answer!" He looked at Darius earnestly.Darius raised an eyebrow and smiled. He now knew what had happened. The officer must've been controlled by someone's life force. Now, his appearance had woken the officer up and allowed him to think properly.After a short silen

Darius leaned back, his legs still crossed. He looked murderous as he said, "I think you guys should know what happened after that."He flexed his neck and stood up. "As for what happened between me and the other guy you brought back, all will be revealed when you check the surveillance footage. Now, I have other things to attend to.""Like what?" The officer spread his hands. "I'll only consider letting you go if you answer me. After all, you're not supposed to step out of here."Darius raised an eyebrow. "I need to see Borisin."The officer straightened up. "Alright, then. You're gonna have to come with me. You won't be able to get in there on your own."Darius followed him out of the room. The officer was surprised he hadn't resisted. Darius smiled at this. "There's nothing to be surprised at. I want to see Borisin, and I can tell you're a good person. If I'm guessing correctly, you and Borisin should be on pretty good terms."The officer looked surprised. Before he could ask how D

"Who told him about me, then?" Darius turned to look at the officer with the scar.The officer skidded to a stop, and his smile froze. He gave Darius a stunned look. "I've never thought about that." He exhaled and shook his head. "I'm mad and worried, but that's not gonna change anything. Borisin won't believe me no matter what I say."His expression turned helpless. "I think it's better for you to speak to him directly."Darius raised an eyebrow. The officer's attitude was surprising. He seemed to be in a hurry to have Darius deal with Borisin, and he didn't want to leave any room for surprises. Darius had his guesses but didn't say anything.Only when they stopped outside a metal door did Darius realize something was amiss. He frowned. "This isn't part of your office."The officer nodded. "Yes, this isn't considered our jurisdiction." He pulled a key out of his pocket and unlocked the door. Then, he strode in."Initially, Borisin wasn't locked up here. He was only transferred here a
The Consortium's Heir Chapter 1134
Darius nodded. "Thanks for bringing me here." The officer shook his head. Then, he turned and left. Darius turned to look at Borisin. The gentleness in their gazes disappeared when their eyes met. Darius asked coldly, "Do you need me to get you out of here?"Borisin nodded. "Yes. If not for the fact that I couldn't contact you, I would've left this hellhole ages ago." He smiled bitterly. "What are you doing here, though?"Darius sighed. "It's nothing. I got tricked. I'll get you out of here before dealing with that."Borisin looked at him thoughtfully. After a few seconds, Darius said, "There's nothing to think about. It's simple, isn't it? If you don't leave, I won't be able to focus on what I need to do. I'm sure that's not what you want. At least it's not what I want."Darius looked at him and channeled his black life force to his palm. As it swirled around his wrist, more and more of it oozed through the walls and gathered around him. Borisin had imagined this happening but had n

Now that videos of Darius were all over the Internet, few people could say they didn't know him. Darius stood where he was with his hands behind his back. He smirked. "The public knows what's up." He spread his hands and shrugged.As he fell silent, so did the crowd. Then, he looked at the officer in the lead again. "Now, please let us leave. Don't worry, I'll be back in a while to see what you guys have found. After all, I was framed just this morning. I can't let that matter slide so easily."Darius smiled mockingly. "Anyway, you guys still haven't given me a proper explanation for misjudging me. How could I possibly let this end here?"He turned to Borisin. "Get going. Leave this place and head to mine. Remember not to let them catch you."Borisin raised an eyebrow. He wanted to ask more questions but chose to be silent at the look on Darius' face. He didn't know what had happened and what was about to happen. All he knew was that he and Darius had to be on the same side.And so, w

Darius put his hands behind his back and smiled. "I wouldn't be standing here, and we wouldn't be on opposing sides if you could find out the truth. The actual truth, not a convenient one." His gaze turned cold.The officer narrowed his eyes. "I hope you realize what you're saying, Darius."Darius raised an eyebrow. "Of course. You, though …"He slowly approached the officer. "You show up here and claim you're gonna find out the truth. In other words, anything that helps you achieve your objective is the truth. It doesn't matter whether it's what actually happened."The officer's gaze turned menacing. "I've already made myself clear, Darius. You made a huge mistake, and that's why you need to come with me. Obeying me is the only way you'll get out of this!"Darius rolled his eyes. "You're all talk and no walk. If I were your boss, I would've fired you in a jiffy." He looked at the officer scornfully.The officer started to tremble with rage. If looks could kill, Darius would already b

Then, Darius channeled his life force to his leg and stomped on the ground. He moved so quickly that regular individuals didn't even see him coming. He shot toward the officer.The officer frowned and quickly stepped back. At the same time, he cried, "You're an enlightened martial artist, Darius. How can you treat me like this?"Darius raised an eyebrow and smiled. "It's amazing that you even know I'm an enlightened martial artist! You know that, but you know nothing else about what I'm like and what I'm capable of."His smile didn't reach his eyes. He looked at the officer mockingly. "I thought all bad guys were intelligent, but you've proven me wrong." He rolled his eyes and snorted.The officer trembled with rage. "I've been nice to you this whole time, Darius. Now, your actions are telling me that I was wrong to do so! I have to make you pay for this!"Darius sneered. "I didn't expect this of you. I should be the one saying those things, you know. I tried being nice, but you're th

"If you hadn't picked on me, I wouldn't have ended up like this. No matter how wealthy I've become, I'll never be able to take these black robes off!" The mysterious man's voice was shaky. He was extremely agitated.James frowned at that. He said curiously, "You keep saying I've done you wrong, but everything I did to you was what you did to others. I only gave you a taste of your own medicine."The mysterious man's breathing sped up when he heard that. He barked out a laugh and sneered, "I'll be honest with you. I never thought I'd have the chance to meet someone as dumb as you again."He shook his head. "I find it hard to imagine what your grandson will do when he sees you like this." As soon as the words were out of his mouth, the door was kicked open with a loud bang. The man was caught off guard. He looked at Darius as his body trembled violently.Darius frowned when he saw this. It was completely different from what he'd imagined. He narrowed his eyes at the mysterious man, his

Gabriel smiled and nodded. "Alright, then. I'll return to my workstation and prepare a proposal on what to do with Noah."Darius nodded and smiled. "Good. That's all I ever wanted." He turned to leave. "You need to get to work, and I need to return to my hotel to get some rest."Gabriel stopped. Darius' words made him hesitate. "I'm sorry to be asking this because I don't think it's my place, but it's probably better for me to ask anyway. I don't remember there being any hotels nearby."You should head home if you wanna get some rest. I don't understand why you're heading to a hotel to rest."Darius raised an eyebrow, looking surprised. He turned with his hands behind his back to look at Gabriel helplessly. "I don't know how to feel about what you've just said. You're making me think you're a little silly. Wouldn't I know how to search for a hotel?"It won't take you long to prepare a proposal, but it'll take me ages to get home from here." Darius turned and left.Gabriel's lips twitc

"Because you realized the risk was far greater than what you were comfortable with," Darius said calmly.But Noah started trembling. He looked at Darius in terror. He didn't expect Darius to see right through him after some simple back-and-forth. His eyes widened in fear.Everything that was happening now made him feel like he was dreaming. Noah had only been a step away from success, yet Darius had ruined everything.Tears filled his eyes as he gazed at Darius. "I've said everything there is to say. I'm the lowest rung on this ladder, and I only have one purpose for being here. It's to make you come under the authorities' control. Once you're here, my mission's accomplished."Someone else from the authorities will be here to deal with you, but that has nothing to do with me. They wouldn't have told me about it, anyway."Darius put his hands behind his back without saying anything. He turned to leave. Noah's eyes widened as he stared in fear at Darius' back.Darius didn't see this, bu
The Consortium's Heir Chapter 1158
When Darius straightened up, his face became devoid of emotion. He said calmly, "I've wasted too much time on you. Now, I only want frank answers. Otherwise, I'll punish you for every lie that you tell me. I don't see any hope in your eyes, but let's see whether you prove me wrong."Darius paused, then continued, "I've already said something similar once. That was a chance I gave you. From this moment onward, I want you to know that I won't repeat myself because I believe you've had enough time to prepare yourself."Gabriel stood beside him and put his hands behind his back as his lips twitched. He'd thought about the various reasons for Darius repeating himself. But the one thing that hadn't occurred to him was that Darius had done it to give Noah time to prepare.Gabriel felt like applauding Darius, but the rational side of him stopped him from doing so. His rationality told him he'd be in for trouble if he were to do that, so he only looked at Darius with a smile.Darius sensed Ga

Darius raised an eyebrow and smiled. Then, he said, "You're too nervous, Gabriel. It makes it seem like you don't trust me. In truth, there's nothing for you to worry about."He stretched his neck and continued, "I know very well how bad the consequences of destroying this building will be. Aside from those silly regulations, I'll also need to pay for it. I might be wealthy, but that doesn't mean I'll enjoy forking out a huge sum of money as compensation."Darius spread his hands and shrugged. At the same time, he pointed at the window and turned to look at Gabriel. Then, he said, "Look. The windows are perfectly fine. They're not even scratched. That shows my life force is non-destructive."That's why you have nothing to worry about. You can put your heart back into your chest."Gabriel straightened up and sighed in relief. Then, he gave Darius an embarrassed smile.Darius grinned but didn't say anything in response. He put his hands behind his back and turned to look at Noah. He sai

"We're classmates from the same major, too! We were interns at Dream Investment Group, remember? And we got kicked out on our first day. You broke my legs because of a tiny argument we had outside the building! The surveillance cameras captured all of this!" Noah cried.Darius tucked his hands into his pockets and rolled his eyes. Then, he said mockingly, "You're the biggest fool I've ever met. Do you think you're the only one who can tamper with the surveillance footage? Any footage that can be tampered with can also be restored."Noah's eyes widened in shock. He gulped and tried to think of a way to explain away the injuries Darius had inflicted on him. Still, he couldn't think of anything. Before he had the chance to think any further, Darius spoke.He said, "There's one thing you got right, though. Gabriel is on my side, so he'll stand up for me no matter what you say."Gabriel's lips twitched at that. He subconsciously opened his mouth to say something in return, but Darius bea

"And I don't think it's my job to make you see sense," Gabriel continued. He put his hands behind his back. He gave Noah a look that was an odd mixture of gentle iciness. "I've given you more than enough time and chances."Gabriel sighed. "It's obvious that you don't care for that, though. And so I think it's time for me to treat you as an officer should." He sat down on the other side of the desk again.Noah's face was white with fear. Gabriel acted like he didn't see this, though. He smiled. "As I mentioned, I gave you plenty of time and chances, but you didn't appreciate them."His gaze turned frosty. "If that's the case, I'm sure you won't object to me doing this per our guidelines."Noah cried, "No, wait! I don't know what Darius has promised you to make you side with him unconditionally, but there's no way I'll let you two get away with this. You have to make sure you do everything by the book. It's a reasonable request, and you have no right to turn me down!"He trembled viole

Gabriel put his hands behind his back as he looked at Noah with a smile. "Now, you've piqued my interest."Noah looked up at Gabriel. His voice was deep and hoarse as he said, "If you help me, I'll give you half of the Reid Consortium's assets once I get my hands on them. You should know that without me, there's no way you'll get a dime from the Reid Consortium."Gabriel snorted with laughter when he heard that. He straightened up and slowly circled Noah. He sounded mocking as he said, "You've lost me there. I tried to puzzle it out, but it doesn't make sense at all."Why would I want to get my hands on the Reid Consortium's fortune? Even without it, I'm perfectly independent. I don't need it to survive."Gabriel crossed his arms and looked at Noah mockingly. "Or maybe you're different from the rest of us. Maybe you'll die without the Reid Consortium's wealth." He smirked and gave Noah a sharp gaze.Noah raised an eyebrow and smirked. "You're the one making me laugh now. I don't know
The Consortium's Heir Chapter 1153
Gabriel sounded gentle, but everyone knew that was far from the truth. This was especially true for Noah, who sat across from him. He felt incredibly nervous. He shut his eyes and breathed rapidly.Noah never would've expected to still be in danger after being taken in by the authorities. He frowned and looked up at Gabriel. "So, are you determined to help Darius now?" His voice was shaky, and his eyes were wide because of his nerves.His emotions were clear as he looked at Gabriel. Gabriel bit his lip, feeling like he was about to laugh. To stop Noah from noticing, he quickly exhaled and sat down with one leg over the other. At the same time, he leaned forward to place his hands on the desk.He tapped his fingers on the desk quickly but rhythmically. Gabriel's eyes were devoid of emotion as he looked at Noah. "Tell me, Noah. What happened between you and Darius? Earlier, you said he was the one who injured you. Do you have any proof?"Because we checked the surveillance footage, a
