The Consortium's Heir Chapter 107
The ride back to the Reid mansion was smooth and uneventful. Both Bruce and Darius remained silent for the entirety of the journey. The reason was because he had nothing to say to Darius, and moreover, he could see that Darius didn’t want to be disturbed at all; therefore he chose to remain quiet.Darius didn’t notice Bruce stealing occasional glances at him. He was far too deep in his thoughts at the moment.The assailant that attacked him was not a citizen of S country; so did this mean that his enemy was a foreigner? And if the enemy was actually a foreigner, how then was he able to spread his roots in S country?Furthermore, the motive behind the attack was still unknown by Darius. His grandfather had only warned him about his safety prior to the attack, but didn’t mention anything about the motive behind their attack.He found it hard to believe that anyone would go ahead and try to hurt him brazenly despite his identity as the heir and current head of the Reid consortium, but hi
The Consortium's Heir Chapter 108
The following morning, Darius awoke later than usual. This was anticipated because of his extreme exhaustion from the previous day's events. He noticed that it was already 11 am when he looked at the time.He got out of bed and drank a bottle of water before going about his morning routine. Darius had no idea he had become a martial artist, so he meditated before practicing his usual martial arts moves, as instructed in the tattered book.Unbeknownst to him, those martial arts moves were no longer appropriate for him. They were only useful when he wasn't a fully developed martial artist. He needed to alter his martial arts techniques now that he was a fully awakened martial artist because otherwise, he would make little to no progress at all.He finished his morning routine a few minutes later. He stripped naked; exposing his ridiculously toned body, and went into the bathroom for a quick shower. After he finished showering, he changed into some casual clothing before leaving his room
The Consortium's Heir Chapter 109
The drive to the SVL Royal Hotel was a smooth and uneventful one. After more than 45 minutes of driving, Darius arrived at his destination.Darius parked the car neatly and alighted from the vehicle. Just a simple glance at the cars parked told Darius how luxurious of a place SVL Royal Hotel was. It was even more impressive and lavish than the Sky Golden Hotel back at Kingston district. However, he didn’t think too much about this. He then walked confidently towards the entrance to the hotel.Two very muscular security guards were stationed at the entrance to the hotel. Darius was an awakened martial artist now so he could vaguely feel the strength of the two security guards. Although he felt he could easily defeat them, the fact that they could threaten him slightly proved that the security guards were elite.The two security guards frowned slightly when they saw Darius approaching them confidently. He had come to the hotel dressed in the same casual clothing he wore back in the Reid

The man who arrived extravagantly with the six Maybach vehicles was of course none other than Tyrell Sanders, the head of the Sanders Group.In truth, SVL Royal Hotel belonged to the Sanders Group; but Tyrell Sanders was a very busy man, so he rarely visited the hotel. However, the case was different this time.He was supposed to meet with James Reid and discuss an extremely important business deal, but James had cancelled at the last moment, opting to send his grandson instead. Tyrell didn’t think too much of it, as the business deal was already at its concluding stages. All he needed to do was to sign the documents and finish some procedures.The meeting with James Reid was actually supposed to be held the next day, but James had cancelled it and put the meeting today. Tyrell was in a board meeting when his secretary informed him of the changes to the date; and the moment he was informed, he immediately put a stop to the board meeting and adjourned it for a later date before hastily

SVL Royal Hotel was really worthy of being the best hotel in the district. The interior of the hotel was twice as luxurious as that of the Sky Golden Hotel, with expensive and deluxe chandeliers hung on the ceilings and several other lavish decorations lining the hotel lobby.Tyrell sneaked a glance at Darius as he stared at the interior decorations and a wave of accomplishment washed over him when he saw that Darius was impressed by the decorations.Their arrival in the lobby attracted attention from the few prominent people in the lobby, which was expected, because not only was Tyrell the owner of the SVL Royal Hotel, he had over ten bodyguards with him.Nonetheless, when they saw Tyrell being humble to a young man in his early twenties, they were shocked beyond comprehension, and very curious about the young man’s identity.Just seconds later after Tyrell and Darius entered the hotel lobby, a male receptionist walked up to them hurriedly. He knew who Tyrell was, so he was incredibl

Bang!A gunshot sound echoed in the car park, and a split second later, a bodyguard fell to the ground and lay motionless.He was dead.Tyrell's eyes widened in surprise when he saw the body of the murdered bodyguard. He was certain that the bullet was intended for him, but he was pushed away at the last second by Darius, resulting in the bodyguard taking the bullet in his place.Tyrell’s eyes clouded over in grief at the bodyguard’s dead body, before rage seeped into them. The gunshot was a lethal one, as the bullet pierced his bodyguard’s heart, killing him on the spot.Whoever the shooter was intended to end his life immediately, and not give him a chance to survive even with the help of world class medical specialists. There was no way he was going to let such a person go scot free.“Go after him!” Tyrell yelled furiously and pointed at the direction the gunshot came from. If looks could kill, Darius was sure that the shooter would be six feet under already.“Do not let him escape

Darius drove as fast as he could, paying little heed to the traffic rules as he drove. He couldn’t care less about the traffic rules now, especially now that he had the injured old man with him.After driving speedily for more than thirty minutes, Darius finally got to the hospital. He should have gotten to the hospital much later as the distance was quite far, but because of his high speed, he was able to get there earlier.The moment he got to the hospital, he called the paramedics over, after which they put the injured old man on a stretcher.Darius walked with them as they wheeled the injured old man into the hospital. It was then he took a closer look at the old man.Even though there was a significant amount of blood on the old man, Darius could see his body clearly. The old man looked to be in his mid sixties, and had a very developed body. He seemed very fit with a muscular body for an old man. It made Darius wonder how the old man was unable to avoid being hit by his vehicle.
The Consortium's Heir Chapter 114
When Emily, the nurse who was speaking to Vera, turned around and saw the middle-aged woman, her eyes widened in surprise.“Director Yul!” Emily exclaimed in surprise.The middle aged woman with a haughty demeanor was none other than the Director of Serene Hospital. Of course, as the Director of the hospital, she had a very high status in the hospital.“Emily, what is the issue?” Director Yul asked with a frown on her face.Emily hesitated to respond to the Director, but Director Yul glared at her. Emily had no choice but to recount the events that had led up to this situation. She did, however, leave out several details about when she paid for the treatments with her own allowance fees. She was aware of how difficult Director Yul could be, and she didn't want to make things more difficult for Vera.As Emily narrated the incidents, the frown on her face grew increasingly prominent. By the time Emily was done, she was sporting a very huge frown on her face.She turned to Vera who was s

"If you hadn't picked on me, I wouldn't have ended up like this. No matter how wealthy I've become, I'll never be able to take these black robes off!" The mysterious man's voice was shaky. He was extremely agitated.James frowned at that. He said curiously, "You keep saying I've done you wrong, but everything I did to you was what you did to others. I only gave you a taste of your own medicine."The mysterious man's breathing sped up when he heard that. He barked out a laugh and sneered, "I'll be honest with you. I never thought I'd have the chance to meet someone as dumb as you again."He shook his head. "I find it hard to imagine what your grandson will do when he sees you like this." As soon as the words were out of his mouth, the door was kicked open with a loud bang. The man was caught off guard. He looked at Darius as his body trembled violently.Darius frowned when he saw this. It was completely different from what he'd imagined. He narrowed his eyes at the mysterious man, his

Gabriel smiled and nodded. "Alright, then. I'll return to my workstation and prepare a proposal on what to do with Noah."Darius nodded and smiled. "Good. That's all I ever wanted." He turned to leave. "You need to get to work, and I need to return to my hotel to get some rest."Gabriel stopped. Darius' words made him hesitate. "I'm sorry to be asking this because I don't think it's my place, but it's probably better for me to ask anyway. I don't remember there being any hotels nearby."You should head home if you wanna get some rest. I don't understand why you're heading to a hotel to rest."Darius raised an eyebrow, looking surprised. He turned with his hands behind his back to look at Gabriel helplessly. "I don't know how to feel about what you've just said. You're making me think you're a little silly. Wouldn't I know how to search for a hotel?"It won't take you long to prepare a proposal, but it'll take me ages to get home from here." Darius turned and left.Gabriel's lips twitc

"Because you realized the risk was far greater than what you were comfortable with," Darius said calmly.But Noah started trembling. He looked at Darius in terror. He didn't expect Darius to see right through him after some simple back-and-forth. His eyes widened in fear.Everything that was happening now made him feel like he was dreaming. Noah had only been a step away from success, yet Darius had ruined everything.Tears filled his eyes as he gazed at Darius. "I've said everything there is to say. I'm the lowest rung on this ladder, and I only have one purpose for being here. It's to make you come under the authorities' control. Once you're here, my mission's accomplished."Someone else from the authorities will be here to deal with you, but that has nothing to do with me. They wouldn't have told me about it, anyway."Darius put his hands behind his back without saying anything. He turned to leave. Noah's eyes widened as he stared in fear at Darius' back.Darius didn't see this, bu

When Darius straightened up, his face became devoid of emotion. He said calmly, "I've wasted too much time on you. Now, I only want frank answers. Otherwise, I'll punish you for every lie that you tell me. I don't see any hope in your eyes, but let's see whether you prove me wrong."Darius paused, then continued, "I've already said something similar once. That was a chance I gave you. From this moment onward, I want you to know that I won't repeat myself because I believe you've had enough time to prepare yourself."Gabriel stood beside him and put his hands behind his back as his lips twitched. He'd thought about the various reasons for Darius repeating himself. But the one thing that hadn't occurred to him was that Darius had done it to give Noah time to prepare.Gabriel felt like applauding Darius, but the rational side of him stopped him from doing so. His rationality told him he'd be in for trouble if he were to do that, so he only looked at Darius with a smile.Darius sensed Ga

Darius raised an eyebrow and smiled. Then, he said, "You're too nervous, Gabriel. It makes it seem like you don't trust me. In truth, there's nothing for you to worry about."He stretched his neck and continued, "I know very well how bad the consequences of destroying this building will be. Aside from those silly regulations, I'll also need to pay for it. I might be wealthy, but that doesn't mean I'll enjoy forking out a huge sum of money as compensation."Darius spread his hands and shrugged. At the same time, he pointed at the window and turned to look at Gabriel. Then, he said, "Look. The windows are perfectly fine. They're not even scratched. That shows my life force is non-destructive."That's why you have nothing to worry about. You can put your heart back into your chest."Gabriel straightened up and sighed in relief. Then, he gave Darius an embarrassed smile.Darius grinned but didn't say anything in response. He put his hands behind his back and turned to look at Noah. He sai

"We're classmates from the same major, too! We were interns at Dream Investment Group, remember? And we got kicked out on our first day. You broke my legs because of a tiny argument we had outside the building! The surveillance cameras captured all of this!" Noah cried.Darius tucked his hands into his pockets and rolled his eyes. Then, he said mockingly, "You're the biggest fool I've ever met. Do you think you're the only one who can tamper with the surveillance footage? Any footage that can be tampered with can also be restored."Noah's eyes widened in shock. He gulped and tried to think of a way to explain away the injuries Darius had inflicted on him. Still, he couldn't think of anything. Before he had the chance to think any further, Darius spoke.He said, "There's one thing you got right, though. Gabriel is on my side, so he'll stand up for me no matter what you say."Gabriel's lips twitched at that. He subconsciously opened his mouth to say something in return, but Darius bea

"And I don't think it's my job to make you see sense," Gabriel continued. He put his hands behind his back. He gave Noah a look that was an odd mixture of gentle iciness. "I've given you more than enough time and chances."Gabriel sighed. "It's obvious that you don't care for that, though. And so I think it's time for me to treat you as an officer should." He sat down on the other side of the desk again.Noah's face was white with fear. Gabriel acted like he didn't see this, though. He smiled. "As I mentioned, I gave you plenty of time and chances, but you didn't appreciate them."His gaze turned frosty. "If that's the case, I'm sure you won't object to me doing this per our guidelines."Noah cried, "No, wait! I don't know what Darius has promised you to make you side with him unconditionally, but there's no way I'll let you two get away with this. You have to make sure you do everything by the book. It's a reasonable request, and you have no right to turn me down!"He trembled viole

Gabriel put his hands behind his back as he looked at Noah with a smile. "Now, you've piqued my interest."Noah looked up at Gabriel. His voice was deep and hoarse as he said, "If you help me, I'll give you half of the Reid Consortium's assets once I get my hands on them. You should know that without me, there's no way you'll get a dime from the Reid Consortium."Gabriel snorted with laughter when he heard that. He straightened up and slowly circled Noah. He sounded mocking as he said, "You've lost me there. I tried to puzzle it out, but it doesn't make sense at all."Why would I want to get my hands on the Reid Consortium's fortune? Even without it, I'm perfectly independent. I don't need it to survive."Gabriel crossed his arms and looked at Noah mockingly. "Or maybe you're different from the rest of us. Maybe you'll die without the Reid Consortium's wealth." He smirked and gave Noah a sharp gaze.Noah raised an eyebrow and smirked. "You're the one making me laugh now. I don't know

Gabriel sounded gentle, but everyone knew that was far from the truth. This was especially true for Noah, who sat across from him. He felt incredibly nervous. He shut his eyes and breathed rapidly.Noah never would've expected to still be in danger after being taken in by the authorities. He frowned and looked up at Gabriel. "So, are you determined to help Darius now?" His voice was shaky, and his eyes were wide because of his nerves.His emotions were clear as he looked at Gabriel. Gabriel bit his lip, feeling like he was about to laugh. To stop Noah from noticing, he quickly exhaled and sat down with one leg over the other. At the same time, he leaned forward to place his hands on the desk.He tapped his fingers on the desk quickly but rhythmically. Gabriel's eyes were devoid of emotion as he looked at Noah. "Tell me, Noah. What happened between you and Darius? Earlier, you said he was the one who injured you. Do you have any proof?"Because we checked the surveillance footage, a
