All Chapters of The Consortium's Heir : Chapter 821 - Chapter 830

"You may find another professor to be your academic advisor, but I assure you I won't be that person!"Darius heaved a deep sigh, squatting on the roadside as he felt the onset of a grueling headache. He knew there was no solving the barrage of problems that would start if Owen turned him away now. That was because this email got sent two weeks ago, on the second day of his coma. Darius pursed his lips in defeat, not knowing how to explain the matter to Owen. It seemed especially difficult since he could tell Owen had a foul temper and was unwilling to listen to others' advice based on their previous conversation. "There's no changing whatever Professor Owen Kurt sets his mind to," Darius mused, feeling like his head was about to blow up. "Maybe he'll accept the truth if I presented him with a medical certificate proving I was in a coma. Then again, there's no telling if it'll reinforce his belief that I'm rich enough to get away with ditching my studies. After all, it's easy for so

"We'll all bear witness to this," the crowd said.The woman on the ground had an ominous feeling. She looked up at Darius and parted her lips to say something, but he beat her to it. "I'm truly sorry about you getting hurt. I should've broken up with you the first time you had another man's child. If not for that, the man's wife wouldn't have cornered me at home and caused you to misunderstand." He sighed and tucked his hands into his pockets, looking desolate. At the same time, he channeled his life force to his face; the warmth made it redden.Silence descended upon the crowd as they watched things play out, including the woman. She gaped at Darius in shock and shook her head mechanically, not knowing how they'd reached this point. She sensed the disdainful looks the crowd was giving her; it wasn't something she'd experienced before. Her face turned red as her eyes filled with tears. Then, she shot to her feet and pointed a trembling finger at Darius. "You—Why, you—" Unfortunately

"I'm Ursula Evans, and I beg you to save me from this monster! I'm from the Evans family; I'll repay your kindness with more money than you've ever seen! I'm sure many of you have heard of my father, Bennett Evans! If you don't believe me, you can take photos of me and look them up online. I've attended countless events and functions; there are bound to be photos of me online. You'll know I'm telling the truth!"Darius raised an eyebrow and sighed. He unbuckled his seatbelt and got out of the car. Ursula was stuck in the window. Terror washed over her when she saw Darius approaching her, and she struggled even more. Darius leaned against the car and watched her with his arms crossed. The calm look in his eyes made Ursula stop struggling. For a second, she felt uneasy, not knowing what to do. She knew Darius would probably do something to stop her but didn't know what. Her breathing sped up as she said, "You heard me—I'm from the Evans family. We're extremely rich, and my father's mor

"Why don't you explain this to the authorities? If you do a good job, I'll consider retracting my earlier decision," said Darius.Ursula's eyes shot open. She looked at the officer and forced out a smile. "Darius and I got into an argument over a small misunderstanding, and I chose to jump out of the car through the window in the heat of the moment. Unfortunately, I didn't realize that I'd gained some weight, and I got stuck there. I'm sure you can imagine how embarrassed I feel now." Darius nodded at her words, looking understanding. For some reason, Ursula still had an ominous feeling. She gulped and turned to Darius, asking cautiously, "I didn't get anything wrong, did I?"As she did this, the officer's gaze landed on Darius, making him frown. He gave Ursula a scornful look. "You do realize you were supposed to make the situation better for us both, right? Yet you're also causing plenty of trouble for me by putting on such a pitiful look. You've been putting on a one-man show from

Ursula parted her lips, but before she could make a sound, Darius asked, "Are you looking at me like that because you want me to accept your compensation right now?" He stroked the car, looking at it with heartache. "I hope you don't damage my car. Otherwise, I'll have no choice but to make you buy me an identical one based on the current market rate. Of course, I'll give you this one in exchange for the new one."Ursula's chest heaved, but she tried her best to keep her voice gentle. "Allow me to apologize in advance for the car. Once I'm out of this predicament, I'll buy you a new one and try my best to make it identical to your current one." She looked at him earnestly.To her dismay, Darius shook his head. "You're not a person of your word. You say this now, but you might go back on your word in the next second. Your promise means nothing to me—the only way I'll believe you is if you act on it right now." Ursula's face was red from her earlier struggle, and people were currently
