[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

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

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

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

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
