The Consortium's Heir Chapter 90
The trip back to Dragon Estate was uneventful. Now that the major problems plaguing West Atlantics Int’l had been tackled, he didn’t need to worry about it anymore. With someone as experienced as Zack in the company, Darius could rest easy.When he arrived at his penthouse suite in the Dragon Lord Imperial Residence, he was a bit exhausted which was normal, as the distance from West Atlantics Int’l headquarters to his penthouse was very far.He took a long and relaxing shower, and then had a sumptuous dinner. When he was done, he put on a lush black bathrobe and lay on his king sized bed.Idle, he put on his phone and started surfing through several social media apps on his phone.An hour passed in that manner, with Darius surfing the social media apps lazily. He remembered that it had been a long while since he logged in to his Groove account, therefore he opened it.As a member who had spent five million dollars on gifting a female streamer, his account name, Mr.ordinary10 had a ver

Pearl Chamberlain was the number three beauty in the whole of Kingston University. Just like her title, she was incredibly beautiful, and Darius had previously had several interactions with Pearl.The first time was when he was eating out in a restaurant. He had crashed into her accidentally and spilled water on her clothes. In his bid to apologize, he wiped the water on her clothes with his hands, but what he got were two painful slaps from Pearl. He was also labeled a perverted scum by her.He had definitely left a very bad first impression on her that day.The second time was during the charity gala. Both he and Pearl had their eyes on a 150 year old wine which was auctioned at the charity gala. They both had a bidding war for it, and in the end Darius had won the bidding war and the wine by placing a bid of four million dollars.This further served to worsen the relationship between him and the third ranked beauty of Kingston University.If it were before he solved the problems in

The next morning, Darius woke up much later than he usually did. This was expected, as he slept very late the previous day.He began his morning routine as soon as he woke up. He practiced the meditation techniques in the tattered book his grandfather gave him, before practicing his martial arts.Once he was done with his morning routine, he took a quick shower to freshen up. After taking his shower, he had a waitress send his breakfast up to his room. He was almost done with his breakfast when his phone rang.He checked the caller ID and saw that it was Bruce who was calling him. He answered the phone call and put the phone on speaker.“Hello Young Master Reid.” Bruce greeted the moment the call connected.“Hello Bruce.” Darius responded coolly.“I have completed the in-depth review of Gillette Group. I have also added the cause of the conflict between Chamberlains Corporation and Gillette Group to the review.” Bruce said.“Alright. Thank you for your help Bruce.” Darius said sincere

“Stop yelling at each other.” A weak voice said. The moment the Chamberlains family members heard the voice, they immediately stopped yelling at each other and turned to the direction of the voice. “Grandpa!” Liam, Tanner and other members of the Chamberlain family shouted at the same time. A few seconds later, an old man could be seen descending the staircase in the villa. He was accompanied by a man seemingly in his early seventies. Everyone present knew who the man was. He was their grandfather most trusted butler and assistant. Tanner hastily arranged a sofa for his grandfather to sit. When his grandfather was comfortably seated, the butler emptied a bottle of water into a cup, and then handed it over for their grandfather to drink. Their grandfather emptied the contents of the cup before setting down the cup on the table. “I heard about the precarious situation of the Chamberlains Corporation.” Evans, their grandfather started. When the people present heard their grandfathe

[Dragon Lord Imperial Residence]2 hours agoDarius entered his study room and switched on his laptop. He checked his inbox and saw that Bruce had already e-mailed him the in-depth review of the Gillette Group. Delighted, he opened the file and read through it.Darius was a bit surprised at the overview of the business group. From the overview, it was safe to say that the Gillette Group was a little above average in Almiron City, which was where their headquarters was located.Now very curious, Darius read further into review.As Darius read through the information on the Gillette Group, a myriad of emotions showed on his face, and by the time he was done reading the review, his curious expression was now replaced with a blank one.It was no wonder that the Gillette Group could thoroughly suppress Chamberlains Corporations; as the Gillette Group was a subsidiary of Dream Investment Group!Th

The family members present turned to Liam in astonishment. They did not expect that Liam who looked so dejected would suddenly spring up to his feet invigorated.Liam looked around the room with his eyes widened in shock. He hastily put his phone on loudspeaker so that they could hear the whole conversation before speaking.“Hello. Am I speaking to Liam Chamberlain?” the caller asked professionally from the other end of the phone.“Yes, I am Liam Chamberlain!” Liam answered energetically.“I’ll repeat what I said earlier.” The caller said politely.“I am Zack Lyle from West Atlantics Int’l, and I would like to invest in your company.”Everyone, including Pearl, looked at Liam with their eyes widened from shock.Invest in their company?!They could feel their hopes being rekindled once more when they heard Zack’s words, but they forced themselves to calm down.While it was great news that a company was willing to invest in them, they didn’t think much about it. At most, it would be a s
The Consortium's Heir Chapter 96
Meanwhile, while the members of the Chamberlain family were celebrating the miracle that happened to them, Darius was relaxing on a chair beside his indoor pool with a glass of wine.He had already done his best to save Pearl’s father company. With the investment from his company, they should be able to scale through this crisis.Regarding the Gillette Group, Darius vowed that the father and son pair will face the consequences of their crimes, both past and present.He couldn't stand the injustice done to the victims of their crimes. He had already told Bruce of this, and the father and son pair would be detained by the police shortly.Darius couldn't care less whether his actions would offend Dream Investment Group because the Gillette Group was a subsidiary of theirs. The influence that a consortium wielded was terrifying, and not something that just anyone could withstand.Darius stood up and removed his bathrobe at that moment, revealing his terrifically built body. He was left in

Darius had just finished meeting with the top executives of Century Enterprises, a top company in Eden city which was under the Reid consortium when his phone rang.He checked the caller ID and saw that it was an unknown number. However, he decided to answer the phone call.“Hello.” Darius said as he answered the call.There was a brief moment of silence before the caller spoke up.“Hello. Is this Darius Reid?” the caller asked.Darius was taken aback when he heard the caller’s voice.The caller was definitely a lady.This situation piqued Darius’ interest. He could feel like he had heard the caller’s voice before, but couldn’t place where it was.“Yes, I am Darius Reid.” Darius answered.There was another brief moment of silence. When the caller didn’t speak up for a few seconds, Darius couldn’t help but break the uncomfortable silence.“Who is this and how I may help you?” Darius asked. There was a tinge of slight impatience in his voice as he asked.Albeit he was curious about the

"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
