The Consortium's Heir Chapter 97
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

The next day, Zack arrived at the Greenspring Residence and headed straight to the Chamberlains villa. There, he and Liam discussed the contract in details before signing it.The moment the contract was signed; Zack transferred $100 million to the company’s account as promised, successfully resolving the issue.After signing the contract, Liam accompanied Zack outside the villa. He tried to invite him out for a meal, but Zack immediately turned him down, saying that he had so many things to do, and this meeting was just one of them.Liam had no choice but to accept Zack’s words. He didn’t want to risk offending his benefactor by persuading him, so he simply chose to accompany him.Following Zack’s departure, the family members of the Chamberlains present wished Liam well before leaving.Their departure was well expected, as they had their own businesses to attend to. The only reason they were here was because their backer, the Chamberlains Corporations was in trouble. Now that the iss

“West Atlantics Int’l?” The figure asked domineeringly.Beads of sweat formed on Alan’s head as the figure asked. His aura was just too overwhelming, and Alan felt like he had been submerged in a bucket of ice.“Y-yes.” Alan stuttered.There another was a brief moment of silence, and the figure withdrew his suffocating aura before he finally spoke up.“Tell me more about this company.”Alan heaved a sigh of relief after the figure withdrew his aura before proceeding to tell the figure all the details he knew about West Atlantics Int’l.As Alan spoke, the figure listened with rapt attention, and by the time Alan was done speaking, there was an indiscernible smirk on his lips.“Interesting.” The figure commented.According to Alan, West Atlantics Int’l was a new investment company based in Capital city, and the sole chairman was a young man in his twenties who was acquainted with Tyrell Sanders of the Sanders Group.Perhaps, the young man had a very impressive background, which was why
The Consortium's Heir Chapter 100
West Atlantics Int’l was developing faster when compared with other business enterprises in Capital city, but that didn’t change the fact that it was a new company. Coupled with the fact that Darius information was largely hidden from the internet, many people would come up with nothing solid when they investigated him. Why was James worried? The reason was simple. Darius took down the Gillette Group, which was a subsidiary of Dream Investment Group. Despite the Reid consortium's terrifying influence in S country, he chose to remain passive for the time being after what happened to his son and daughter-in-law. He was aware that a mysterious figure backed the Dream Investment Group, so even when Dream Investment Group subsidiary companies targeted other medium-sized companies in the Reid consortium, he didn't go too far in dealing with them; not until he figured out who was behind Dream Investment Group. There were many things that were unknown, and even an influential financial gr
The Consortium's Heir Chapter 101
[Dragon Lord Imperial Residence, Darius Residence]Darius was naturally unaware of the impending danger to his life and went about his daily activities as usual.He performed the meditation techniques in the tattered book his grandfather gave him before practicing his martial arts.As he practiced his martial arts daily, Darius found out that he was getting increasingly stronger after every practice session.It was certainly strange, as Darius didn’t know the reason why he made such rapid improvements.Moreover, he also noticed that his progress was now stalling.When he first began practicing martial arts after the assassination attempt, his martial arts skills improved by leaps and bounds. However, his progress stalled nearly two months after the assassination attempt. It was as if he was at a bottleneck and needed something extra to break through.Of course, the reason why Darius’ martial arts skills improved greatly was because of the golden liquid his grandfather gave him when he

Darius couldn’t see the masked figure’s movement clearly, but he could feel a huge sense of crisis when the masked figure disappeared suddenly.When the masked figure reappeared in front of him, the sense of crisis he felt multiplied by tenfold.His instinct flared up at that moment, and he raised his hands to block the attack from the masked figureBoom!A loud sound instantly echoed in the room.Darius flew back greatly from the force of the hit and landed against the wall in the room. His hands were completely numb after the blocking the hit, and he could barely feel them.‘So strong!’ Darius thought inwardly.The attack from earlier was very strong and could have clearly rendered him incapacitated or worse if he didn’t manage to block it on time.Meanwhile, the masked figure was in complete shock.Prior to this attack, he had monitored Darius greatly and discovered that he had not yet awakened his Qi, so he wasn’t much of a threat to him.However what was this situation?Even thou

The two exchanged blows for a few more seconds before separating from each other. As they stood apart from each other, the aftermath of the blows was evident on their bodies.The masked figure black outfit was now torn in many places, and his body was riddled with injuries. The mask he wore hid his facial features from Darius completely, but there was blood on the corner of his lips.Darius himself wasn’t faring too well. Since he was alone at home, he had dressed in a single pair of shorts, and a casual shirt; therefore during the course of the fight, his clothing was unable to withstand the powerful blows, so they were just as ragged as the masked figure’s outfit.The masked figure looked at Darius warily. This current turn of events was far from what he expected, and it seemed like his original mission was now impossible to complete.His eyes gradually turned cold.Darius Reid had a lot of talent, so much that it was mind-blowing, and this was evident from the fact that he could go

Darius turned to face the motionless masked attacker on the floor. He felt a strong sense of power in his body. It was like a volcano on the verge of erupting.Darius had no idea that he had now taken that extra step and become a martial artist. He only knew he felt much stronger than he did during the fight with the masked figure.The entire world seemed clearer than before. It was as if he had previously viewed the world through filters, and even his concept of time had changed. Everything seemed to have slowed significantly.The masked figure, whose face was now exposed, glared at Darius with hatred in his eyes. Unfortunately, there was nothing he could do than to stay still.He had no idea that Darius would breakthrough during their fight, otherwise he would never have held back from the start.Moreover, Darius actually self healed several times during their fight. It was completely ridiculous!He sighed. There was no use thinking about it now. He lost, and Darius won. He was comp

"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
