All Chapters of The Consortium's Heir : Chapter 1071 - Chapter 1080

"Aside from the fact that he looked like a younger version of my father, everything else was identical. I wanted to approach him to ask more questions, but he looked at me like I was a stranger. He drove me away, which I find really weird. I don't know whether you're aware of Dream Investment Group backing the Evans family up. That's also one of the reasons I'm here today. I wanted to find out what exactly happened to my father." Chad sighed. Then, he gave Darius a determined look. "That's why I think our goals aren't contradictory. We don't have to interfere in each other's matters at all."Darius nodded and stretched out an arm. "Make yourself at home." He had an idea of what had happened with the Evans family. When Chad was a child, the Evans family must've gone through a power shift. It caused most of the wealthier members of the Evans family to be disowned and driven out. But because there were too many of them, it seemed more like the Evans family had been split up. That's why t

Blake's breathing hitched. He paled and felt his strength leave him as fear washed over him. He collapsed to the floor. Still, he couldn't help stealing a glance at Darius. Darius snorted at this. "Regardless of what you've seen or haven't seen, just act like nothing happened. Knowing too much won't do you any good."Blake gulped and staggered to his feet. Then, he forced out a smile. Darius didn't say anything at this. He was curious to see what Blake would say. Blake said cautiously, "I understand. I won't do anything to disturb you! I know nothing about what happened to you!" He turned and fled.Darius smiled at this, but his smile soon faded. After running a distance away, Blake turned around as surreptitiously as possible. He didn't dare to make a full turn to see whether Darius was still watching him. When he didn't see Darius out of the corner of his eye, he smiled. He was one step away from jumping with joy when he caught himself.He kept running until he reached the curb. The

Declan had to take several deep breaths to calm down. He looked up at Darius with a smile as he saluted. "Sir, I'll use my life force to lift all these rocks into the air. Then, I'll turn them back into what they used to be." He gave Darius a determined look.Darius could sense this but wasn't too confident in his abilities. Declan stood beside a small hill that was about twice his height. It didn't look that tall, but who knew how far underground it went?He exhaled and put his hands behind his back. Then, he said, "As far as I'm aware, that hill beside you has existed since the Reid family's manor was built. It goes deep underground; my ancestors dug as deep as possible but still failed to extricate it."Declan didn't look demotivated by this. On the contrary, he looked confident. Seeing this, Darius knew he felt he would definitely succeed. He didn't say anything else. Instead, he stepped back and gave Declan space to perform. "Make sure not to put yourself and the Reid family's ma

Declan didn't know Darius was watching him from his room on the second floor. He stood by the window with his hands behind his back. Bridget stood a step behind him with a Cheshire cat grin.Darius turned to her and asked, "Can you tell me why you look so happy?"Bridget nodded. "I just think this guy's hilarious." She exhaled.Darius could tell she was trying her best not to let her amusement get the better of her. Obviously, she wasn't getting very far. He tucked his hands into his pockets and smiled. Bridget's grin was infectious.Bridget cleared her throat and continued, "He wants to win your attention and trust but isn't willing to treat you with complete sincerity." Her expression turned scornful. "I don't think he's trustworthy, sir. I also don't think he made it into the Reid family through glorious means."Darius raised an eyebrow curiously. "Why do you think that?""It's simple. Before any of us are allowed to join the Reid family's bodyguard training center, Bruce will use

Edward's brows furrowed as he watched Darius and Bridget worriedly. He'd sustained such serious injuries despite sitting at the door. He couldn't even imagine what the life force was doing to them.Bridget didn't know what he was doing because she couldn't see him. All she knew was that some of the life force that had been attacking her had gone elsewhere. She frowned but didn't turn back. Instead, she said grimly, "Have you lost your mind, Edward?"She didn't expect him to act like this. Her heart twisted painfully. She couldn't bring herself to imagine what Edward was currently experiencing. He could've avoided injury. After all, he'd been outside when Darius had lost control. As long as he hadn't entered the room, the life force wouldn't have attacked him. Still, he hadn't stayed away.Obviously, he'd only come into the room to attract some of the life force to him. That way, Bridget and Darius would have some room to breathe. It was too high a price to pay, though. Tears trickled
