All Chapters of The Consortium's Heir : Chapter 921 - Chapter 930

The two workers bent down to help Craig off the ground. One of them simultaneously glared daggers at Darius, then shot the same stare at Bridget."I'm sure you've seen how that specific worker looked at me, right?" Darius voiced, causing Bridget's cheeks to pale like chalk.She lowered her head, shut her eyes, and sighed. It took her a moment to reel in her emotions before reopening her eyes. When she did, her expression resumed its usual frostiness. "Yes, sir. I understand. I'll deal with him right away." While saying that, she rolled up her sleeves and approached the rude sales office worker.As for the worker, his brows furrowed with disappointment at Bridget.That was when Darius placed his hand on Bridget's shoulder, exerting some pressure so she couldn't move forward. A sigh left his mouth as he shook his head and remarked, "I've always seen you as an intelligent woman, Bridget. But I never thought you'd pick this guy as your boyfriend, or even have feelings for a man like him

He looked up at Darius as his breathing sped up, but he tried to keep his appearance and voice as calm as possible. "Darius, I know you're civilized—I can tell from your face. Based on that alone, I think we can properly discuss everything that's happening now." Craig thought he was being nice enough, but the only response he received was a mocking smile from Darius. It made his hair stand on end, and before he knew it, he blurted out, "I'm warning you, Darius—don't look at me like that! You have no idea how ugly you look right now!"Darius raised an eyebrow. "I hear you, but I also have to tell you that I couldn't care less about your opinion." He sighed, straightened up, and walked toward Craig. "You and I are obviously on opposing sides; there's no way you'd harbor any positive intentions toward me." Then, he stepped on Craig, making Craig cry out in pain and stare up at him in shock.Craig couldn't believe what was happening. He gulped and trembled all over as an ominous feeling

He held his head high and let out a disparaging laugh. "I guess they weren't lying to me when they told me you were a force to be reckoned with, Darius. Unfortunately, I won't be able to give you what you want because I have no right to betray the Evans family. I'm sure you can tell that I'm on the lowest rung among everyone who's been mobilized to come after you. Naturally, I know the least about this master plan." Craig's eyes turned red, and he looked helpless. It was apparent that he had no way of winning against Darius—Darius was more intelligent and powerful than he'd imagined. Nothing good would come out of this if he were to insist on opposing Darius. Craig sighed and shut his eyes, knowing that he couldn't tell Darius what he knew. Since there was no way Darius would extend his kindness to him, he wouldn't be able to survive if he were to betray the people he was working for. Besides, there was no point in him telling Darius those things.Craig tried his best to comfort him

Bridget's eyes were icy. She aimed her gun at Mateo and said, "Since you're an ordinary person, I'll solve this the way ordinary people do."Mateo had originally been on his knees. When he heard Bridget's words, he snorted and straightened up. "Alright, if that's what you want!" He didn't give Bridget the chance to react before darting toward her, but she looked calm and didn't even flinch. Mateo frowned at this. As someone who'd previously undergone the Reid family's rigorous training for its bodyguards, he knew very well that the silent ones were dangerous. Still, he didn't hesitate as he rushed at her, yelling, "Go to hell!"In that instant, Bridget sensed his unbridled intention to murder her. She was frozen and unable to believe that he would treat her like this. In the past, they'd been on extremely good terms. What had happened over the years to make him harbor such deep hatred for her? She remained rooted to the spot.Edward frowned at this. If Bridget didn't dodge this attac

"You mean there's a bomb here," Edward said bluntly. At this moment, Darius arrived at the top of the basement stairs and heard their conversation. He raised an eyebrow and walked down to join them.Ursula, who lay on the ground, cracked her eyes open by a slit and rasped out a breath. This attracted their attention, but when they turned to look at her, she'd shut her eyes again. "She's awake," Bridget frowned and said coldly. "And she's stronger than we thought. An ordinary person would've died from those injuries, but she hasn't."Edward nodded. "Should we search her and the rest of the basement?"Darius shook his head. "That's not necessary. You've hit the nail on the head with your suspicions—Ursula's the one who planted the bomb here." He pointed at a corner of the room, then moved his finger in a circle, indicating the other corners of the room before continuing mockingly, "There are five surveillance cameras here; I saw everything that happened here from my computer."Ursula's
