“Is it true that you were in a relationship with Darius Reid?” Sarah face scrunched up when she read the comment, but it was only for a few moments. She was on a live stream so she had to maintain a pretty face in order to please her fans that were watching the stream. The comment section went wild when they saw that question. “What do you mean by that? Of course it’s false!” “Totally false! How would our goddess go out with that peasant?” “I mean why bother ask?” “Just look at her now. Her boyfriend David bought her a limited edition bag worth $6,000. Why would she date Darius when she could easily be with David?” Sarah smiled as she watched them argue in the comment section. She decided not to answer the question. Since they were already going at it in the comment section all she needed to do was stay still and smile. When Darius saw his ex-girlfriend on the live stream however, he immediately wanted to leave the stream. Seeing Sarah reminded him of their relationships whic

He thought about using his real name in his account but decided against it. He didn’t want to bring unnecessary attention to him; at least not yet. However, he wasn’t going to let them get away with this. He was going to completely ruin their chances of them being able to go out on a date with them. Wasn’t it money? He had a lot of it anyway. With that thought in mind, Darius recharged his account with $5,000,000 at once. His account instantly leveled up to lv99, 1 level away from level 100. His name also had a blue verification tick on it, a symbol that the account’s owner had topped up more than $1,000,000. Darius wasn’t bothered at all that he was spending lavishly. The Groove streaming platform belonged to the Reid consortium, meaning that he was just enriching himself. Finally the five minutes allocated to them to recharge their accounts was exhausted, prompting Alice to speak up. “So the five minutes are up! And the competition begins now! Remember, the more you gift, the h

There was another period of brief silence when the notification flashed across the stream’s channel. The viewers watching the stream couldn’t believe this. The mysterious Mr.ordinary10 had just sent Alice two universe in a row. That was a whooping sum of $50,000. That was way too luxurious! Alice herself couldn’t believe what was going on. When she started the competition she didn’t hope to get more than $10,000 from gifts. She was plenty satisfied with the gifts she had gotten, yet this mysterious fan had sent her two super gifts in a row. Alice wasn’t the only one who was shocked. The three ladies on the stream including Sarah were completely shocked by what they saw. They never knew that Alice had such a wealthy fan! The fanfare that accompanied the super gifts pulled more viewers to Alice’s stream. More viewers flocked to her stream for one single purpose. The presence of a verified account was more than enough to pull them to her stream. Even some streamers including the top

“Alice. I want to go on a date with Alice.” Everybody had an expression of surprise when they heard his choice, but it was only for a few seconds. When they thought about it his choice seemed pretty normal. After all Sarah was in a relationship with one of the richest guys on campus and although she was very beautiful, Alice was not so bad herself. Sarah’s face scrunched up when she saw Mr.ordinary10’s choice. It irked her greatly that Alice was picked over her, but it was only for a split second after which she returned her expression to normal which was her smiling face. Alice let out a small victory dance in her heart. She was the one the rich fan had chosen to go on a date with! It was still very dreamlike to her that she had been gifted 5 million dollars by a single person, and now the said person had decided to go on a date with her. Alice was someone who strongly rejected the idea of dating before, but she didn’t mind dating this obvious noveau riche. She could barely wait

She thought it was Darius. However it was a message from one of the top streamers on Groove.She scoffed when she read the content of the message. Basically they were asking for a collaboration stream with her in hopes of roping in the wealthy fan she just gained to spend more on them.Without any ounce of hesitation in her, she declined their offer. She started streaming primarily to support herself and her younger brother, who was the only family she had left after her parents died in a car accident. Now that she had gotten 5 million dollars from streaming, there was absolutely no reason for her to bend to their will.------The next day Darius got up later than usual. He looked around the dorm room and saw that the dorm room was empty again. He laughed when he saw that. His roommates had finally decided to attend classes like normal students at last.He picked up his phone to check if there were any messages for him and surprisingly there was one. Darius checked the message details

Darius nodded and settled into the back seat of the cab. He was finally beginning his search for a new apartment.Darius found himself driving through various luxurious buildings as the cab moved. Darius had never been to this part of town before, so he was taken aback by the opulence of the buildings. Finally after driving for over 45 minutes, the cab came to stop at a very luxurious gate. Darius waited for a few seconds for the driver to move forward but there was no sign of movement from the driver. Confused, Darius decided to ask what the issue was. “Hello, could you please go further? Or is there a reason we’re stopping here?” Darius asked. When he heard Darius' question, the cab driver who was a middle-aged man, lightly shook his head. It seemed that his hunch was right after all. His passenger clearly had no clue how Dragon Estate worked. “Pardon me Sir, but I really cannot go any further than this. Is this by chance Sir’s first visit to Dragon Estate?” the cab driver aske

Darius was obviously unaware of the conversation between the duo security guards. Instead he was smitten by the luxury and opulence of the estate. The entire estate was crammed with opulent shops and several tall buildings. Numerous pricey sedans and sports cars sped down the street. The shops were noticeably superior to those found outside the estate. Darius had no idea that such an opulent location existed. It seemed very surreal to him. In his fascinated state, he had forgotten that Bruce had never given him a specific location to visit. He only realized after a while that Bruce had only mentioned Dragon Estate and the manager. He brought out his phone and called Bruce. The phone didn’t ring once before Bruce picked up the call. “Hello Young Master Reid. Is anything the problem?” Bruce answered in an overly respectful voice. “Hm. I’m at Dragon Estate now and I just recalled that you only mentioned the Estate and the Manager. There are several housing apartments in this estate.

The receptionist looked at Darius with contempt. She didn’t understand what he was trying to do? Was he intending to use his phone to make a call as a display of his strength? Darius noticed her contemptuous expression but ignored her. The phone rang only once before Bruce picked up the phone call. "Young Master Reid! Is everything alright Young Master?!” Bruce inquired anxiously. “Yes. Everything is alright.” Darius replied in a reassuring tone. Bruce let out an audible sigh of relief on the other end of the phone. The young master was alright. “If everything is alright then why did you call Young Master Reid?” Bruce asked; confusion evident in his voice. “Hm. I'm currently at the Dragon Lord's Imperial Residence, and the receptionist has refused me a meeting with the residence's manager. Could you please notify the manager that I am waiting for her in the lobby?" Darius inquired cheerfully, his gaze fixed on the receptionist as he spoke. “How dare she?! She’ll be there at onc

"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

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
