All Chapters of The Consortium's Heir : Chapter 841 - Chapter 850

"In any case, I was punished and relegated here over something that didn't even happen!"Darius raised an eyebrow at Iago's complaint and mentally reviewed the information he'd revealed so far. Iago had been framed, leading to his parents cutting him off financially. He'd originally just been a rich kid living the cushy life but had been forced to work here as a security guard, surviving from paycheck to paycheck. Darius gave Iago an odd look—things didn't look as tough for him as he'd made them seem. He didn't look tortured or disheveled.Iago immediately understood what Darius was thinking. He forced out through gritted teeth, "See, that's what you think as well! You think my current life looks alright, don't you? But you don't know about that woman docking my pay when she feels like it! Going to work and doing my job is all I can do right now. You might think she's doing this out of the kindness of her heart, like maybe she's trying to train me so I can do a better job of managing

Darius took a deep breath and started driving. Iago watched him dazedly and asked, "What do I need to do now? And where are we going? I've never taken this way before; is there something fun where we're going?"Darius rolled his eyes. "No, there's nothing there except my home. I'm guessing you've been staying at the hotel's lodging all this while. Now that you've fallen out with them, you won't be able to continue working there, which also means you're out of a place to stay." He glanced at Iago. "So, I'm taking you to my place now. I'm sure you have no objection to that." Iago immediately nodded vigorously, making Darius' lips twitch. "Right, we can talk about everything else tomorrow. I believe Ursula will probably show up with those three people in tow."Iago crossed his arms and nodded. A few seconds later, he asked hesitantly, "What about that employee they were bullying? He wasn't lying about that. Throughout my time at the hotel, I've witnessed many people bullying him. Beside

This time, however, they didn't linger in the hall. Instead, they headed straight to the study. Darius sat down and placed a hand on the desk. He shut his eyes and slowly rapped his knuckles on the desk. "Alright, tell me what else has happened recently."Erin stood opposite him with her hands behind her back. "There have been some other incidents, but everything related to West Atlantics Int'l has either been good news or not too urgent. Zack's betrayal didn't cause any financial losses, and the issues he caused with the cash flow have already been rectified by cutting some costs internally … " At the thought of this, her eyes widened. "Sir, as you're aware, all our projects are fund-intensive, but we managed to resolve the cash flow issue solely by cutting costs. We didn't even need to cut the employees' salaries. This means we've been overspending in this aspect; I think this is something we can look into for further improvement."Darius continued to knock on the desk. Then, he wa

After a long silence, Erin said in a small voice, "There's something wrong with your admission status again." Darius silently raised an eyebrow, making Erin's hair stand on end. She gulped, then hurriedly said, "Because you've continued to be absent from class, the university has decided to temporarily suspend your admission again. If not for Professor Owen Kurt lending you a hand, things would probably be worse."Darius sighed and turned to look out the window in an attempt to calm down. A few seconds later, he said, "Got it. Tomorrow morning, when we're done dealing with this mess, I'll arrive at the university at eight on the dot to talk to the dean—" He abruptly fell silent.Erin looked at him curiously. "Sir, is there something that you haven't told us?"Darius gave her a complicated look and nodded. "This is rude of me, but I've forgotten the dean's name because I've never actually thought of him as my dean."Erin's lips twitched at his words. Still, as a professional secretary

"They'll only go in one ear and out the other! I won't believe a word you say; they won't have the chance to enter my mind, let alone be processed." Zack forced the words out through gritted teeth, his fury evident. Darius could almost feel it through the speakers. Zack exhaled heavily and said, "If Darius were the one who'd caused my injuries, I wouldn't be so resentful. Yet the reality is the exact opposite!" He slammed a hand on the table. "Darius isn't the one who injured me. On the contrary, he saved my life! The person I've been plotting against all this while saved my life, which was in danger because of my so-called comrades. Do you know how guilty I feel toward Darius because of this? There's no way I can continue working against him in secret. Since I'm destined to die in the same person's hands, there's no way I'll continue doing anything for that person. As for you, you're also nothing more than a pawn to him. It's your choice if you continue working for him, but I hop
