“Sterling Corporations are being investigated for tax evasion worth over $150 million.”Hector’s face became pale at the headline on the TV station. His eyes widened in shock at the news.Tax evasion!This was why the bank and loan companies suddenly demanded him to pay back his loans in twenty four hours time!“You’re completely incompetent, Mr. Hector.” The bigwig said, displeasure lacing his tone.“I can explain!” Hector said frantically, but the bigwig cut him short.“It was a pleasure doing business with you Mr. Hector. Sadly, our deal is off now.” The bigwig announced in a tone of finality before disconnecting the phone call abruptly.Hector looked at the phone in disbelief. He dialed the bigwig’s number the next minute. It rang only once before it disconnected again. The next time Hector called the number, it didn’t go through. He didn't have to be a genius to realize he'd been blocked.“F*ck!” Hector yelled angrily and scattered everything on his desk, before slumping back to

Chapter 122

[West Atlantics Int’l, Capital City]Darius’ eyes shone when he heard Hector’s answer.The Gold Group!Darius had never expected that the person who was behind everything was the head of the Gold Group.“I see.” Darius replied calmly, despite the shock he felt.“I’ve told you what you wanted to know now. I hope you’ll fulfill your promise.” Hector said between gritted teeth from the other end of the phone. “Rest assured. I’ll keep my end of the deal.” Darius smiled and replied, before disconnecting the phone call.After disconnecting the phone call, Darius interlocked his fingers, rested his chin on his fingers and fell into deep thoughts.The Gold Group was Capital City's third largest business group, with a net worth in the billions of dollars. Of course, the Reid Consortium could easily crush them, but Darius had not considered this option.The Gold Group targeted West Atlantics Int’l, not the Reid Consortium; therefore he would go against the Gold Group using the strength of West

Chapter 123

The next few days were straightforward for Darius. When he got back to the Reid mansion that day, related the basics of what happened to Bruce, but didn’t go into much details. He then took a well deserved rest.He had been so incredibly busy, as the meeting with Tyrell Sanders, the assassination incident that took Tyrell’s bodyguard’s life, the accident with the old man, and the attack on West Atlantics Int’l all happened in less than 48 hours. Darius was not a machine, so it was only normal that he would be extremely exhausted after dealing with such issues.Since his grandfather was not coming back until two weeks later, Darius felt that there was no need waiting for his arrival, especially with his busy schedule; hence he took the initiative to leave the Reid mansion. At most, he promised to return back to the mansion when his grandfather was back from his business trip.Darius then left the Reid mansion and went back to his residence at Dragon Estate. Of course, he took the Merce

Chapter 124

Darius looked at the gorgeous lady standing in front of him and quickly masked the surprised expression that flitted across his face. Nevertheless, albeit it was only for a few seconds, Janet Fox noticed his surprised reaction and felt pleased at that. That small instant was enough for her to know that Darius was surprised at her identity. It meant that Darius knew who she was.“Are you not going to offer me a seat, Darius?” Janet said playfully.Her words jolted Darius from his thoughts, and he offered her a seat, before taking his back.Darius looked at Janet expressionlessly, but his mind was going through turmoil at the moment. He had no idea why Janet Fox, the second ranked beauty in Kingston University approached him.Darius was incredibly poor some months ago, so even though he often heard the stories and gossips concerning the top ten campus beauties, he never had the opportunity to interact with them.It wasn’t until he discovered his true identity as the heir to the Reid con

Chapter 125

“Excuse me?” Janet asked in a voice devoid of any emotion, but Darius could tell that she was annoyed at the moment.“You heard me you bitch!” The young man replied harshly in anger. He was already in a worse mood after his plan to get in bed with the lady he liked fell through, and was already looking for an outlet to vent his anger. Hence, he wouldn’t let the chance that he deemed heaven sent slip from his fingers.Darius frowned at the young man’s choice of words, and took a closer look at the man. Darius was now an awakened martial artist, so this meant that his mind power was now above the normal person; therefore he easily remembered the young man as the one who was in an argument with a female close to an hour ago. He could tell because the voice was extremely familiar.If Janet Fox was merely annoyed before, this time she was truly infuriated.Bitch?It had been ages since someone dared use such a derogatory word to describe her.“Watch your words. It was merely a small accide

Chapter 126

Janet arched her eyebrows at Jonathan’s statement. There was a hint of amusement in her eyes amidst the initial hatred and anger she felt towards the young man.Long?If what the young man said was true, then he should belong to the Long family.Janet nearly laughed at that moment. If it were any other person that were in her shoes, they would have trembled in fear the moment Jonathan mentioned the Long family, but it couldn’t be the same for her.This was due to the fact that the so-called Long family were nothing more than lowly servants in comparison to her background!Jonathan mistook Janet’s arched eyebrows for fear of the Long family, and became bolder in his threats.“That’s right!” Jonathan yelled.“Weren’t you having fun slapping me just now? I’ll call my dad right now to straighten you out!”He then whipped out his phone furiously and made a phone call. Less than two minutes later he ended the phone call. All the while, Darius and Janet remained still where they stood and wa

An ominous feeling came over Sawyer Long the moment Janet put the phone to her ears, but he remained still. As far as he was concerned, Janet was merely bluffing, and would not be able to do anything to him.The number Janet dialed rang only once before the phone call connected.“Hello Miss Fox.” A baritone voice laced with respect and politeness answered from the other end of the phone.“Hello Zane.” Janet replied with a playful tone.When Zane heard Janet’s playful tone, he knew at once that something was wrong. From his experience of dealing with Janet, he discerned that some unlucky fellow had offended her, and she wanted to make him/her pay the price. Nevertheless, he maintained his silence as he usually did and pretended that nothing was wrong.“Is anything the issue Miss Fox?” Zane asked politely.“Do you happen to know if we’re partnering with any company or business from the Long family?” Janet asked playfully; but there was a hint of anger and disgust in her eyes as she spok

Chapter 128

Darius and Janet naturally had no idea that Jonathan was planning his revenge at that moment, and chatted lightly as they walked. They could not be bothered about what seemed to be a trivial quarrel, and an equally trivial person. Janet could see that Darius was no longer interested in continuing the conversation with her, so she decisively decided to leave him alone, but not before exchanging phone contacts with him. Darius was a bit reluctant to exchange phone contacts with her at first, but after seeing how she made the so called Long family bend with just a phone call, he decided to accept her contact details. He could see that from the brief phone call she made, she proved how formidable her background was. There was no harm in knowing someone with such a strong background. Darius then accompanied her to the hotel’s exit and waved her off sincerely before making his way back to the hotel. Even though her appearance was a bit unexpected, he couldn’t deny that it was a pleasant e

Chapter 129

The rest of the day passed quickly and it was soon evening. Since the auction was being held in Vane city, Darius finished his preparations by 6pm. Vane city was an hour drive away from Sky Golden Hotel, and since he was not going alone but with Janet, he couldn’t be late to the auction.The auction was a high class one, so Darius didn’t dare dress casually for the auction. He picked out the classy three piece suit he wore to the charity gala some months back, the quality shoes, and the limited edition wristwatch Bruce got for him.He looked incredibly dashing, and was way handsome than he was during the charity gala. After being the head of a company for some time, he now had a sophisticated look to him.He exited the presidential suite and walked to the car park, ignoring the intrigued stares he got from the staff and people present in the hotel. He entered his car and inputted the auction’s house location in his car’s GPS system, before driving out of the hotel.After driving for a

Chapter 130

The inside of the auction house was bustling with activity, with many people walking about and discussing, eliciting an interested expression on Darius’ face. There were several people at the exchange center, a place where they could put up their items and goods for auction. The staff at the exchange center would then appraise their goods and determine how much it would be auctioned off for. Of course, the exchange center would not forget to take their 10% commission from the amount the items or goods were auctioned off for. The 10% commission was fixed, and would be deducted regardless of the amount the items or goods were auctioned off for. Janet noticed the interested expression on Darius’ face and smiled softly before speaking. “Are you interested in putting up any of your properties, items or goods for auction?” Janet asked nonchalantly, her eyes trained on the exchange center. Darius shook his head at her question, displaying his answer. With his current wealth and status, t
