The Consortium's Heir Chapter 1103
Without even realizing it, Noah's smile turned sycophantic. Darius raised an eyebrow at this. "Are you done talking shit?"Noah gaped at him. He didn't know what to make of Darius. At first, Darius had treated his threats and mockery with patience. Then, he'd warned him and told him to compensate for the car. Then, he'd lost patience for his threats and mockery. Darius had tried to take this life.He'd made it out alive and gone back to threatening Darius. Oddly enough, Darius was still resolutely against him. This was despite him knowing there was someone powerful backing him up.Noah didn't think Darius was doing this on a whim or in a fit of rage. He felt Darius had to be confident he could come out on top. That was why he was opposing him.Darius smiled. He could see how hard Noah's mind was working despite his silence. Noah felt like his blood had run cold at Darius' smile. He widened his eyes in shock, feeling like Darius could see right through him.He parted his lips to speak,
The Consortium's Heir Chapter 1104
The black-robed person's voice turned cold. "Don't feel so pleased just yet. It wasn't my intention to praise you." He smiled. When Darius didn't respond, he remembered Darius couldn't see his face.He barked out a laugh. "You're the most shameless person I've ever met, Darius. Didn't you want to have a duel with me? Now, I'll show you how weak you are compared to me!"As soon as his words fell, a gust of wind appeared out of nowhere. Darius raised an eyebrow and smiled at this. It made the black-robed person uneasy. Neither he nor Darius had moved an inch, but it wasn't because he didn't want to. He couldn't!This shocked the black-robed person. His breathing hitched, and his eyes widened. "What's happening? Why can't I move?" As soon as the words were out of his mouth, he was sent flying. He landed on the ground with a crash.Darius' smile widened. "So, I realize you've probably never imagined the things that have just happened. Now, you have no choice but to face them. If you can't

Darius frowned and waved a hand. The force that had been tearing Hansley apart disappeared. Darius glared at the sky.Hansley was still on the ground. His skin showed signs of being torn; they wouldn't heal so easily. Blood oozed out of the tears. Darius put his hands behind his back and stared at Hansley. His mind raced.A flurry of thoughts was racing through his mind, but he couldn't make sense of them. He didn't know what to say or do. He shut his eyes and sighed.Hansley was still disoriented from what had happened. Still, he could sense that Darius was suppressing something. He didn't know what it was. All he knew was that he couldn't think through the pain.He looked at Darius and said, "I thought you wouldn't save me, but you did. That's a surprise."Darius raised an eyebrow and put his hands behind his back. He approached Hansley and squatted down. He gave Hansley a sharp look, making Hansley feel nervous. Hansley trembled and gulped. "W-What are you up to now?"Darius said fr
The Consortium's Heir Chapter 1106
Hansley sighed. "I know it's hard for you to believe me, but I'm telling the truth. There's nothing I can do if you don't trust me."Darius put his hands behind his back and nodded. "I understand. Now, I want to know why I could see my father's shadow in you. I don't remember anything about him. After all, I was an infant when he died. But when I saw him earlier, I instantly knew it was him."Hansley looked at him helplessly. "Darius, you're an enlightened martial artist. You should trust your instincts. If they're telling you that shadow belonged to your father, you know it has to be true!"Darius' expression darkened. He looked at Hansley silently. Hansley said, "I know what you're mad about, but it's not something you need to consider. When I was merging with my body, I don't know which part belonged to whom. I believe your father had to go through many rounds of experimenting to become what he is now."Darius' breathing sped up again. Hansley exhaled and said, "Your anger makes me
The Consortium's Heir Chapter1107
Darius looked scornful. "I suppose you don't realize how dumb you sound. It's apparent to everyone." He smirked.The black-robed person barked out a laugh and looked down at Darius. "Didn't you mention that you sensed your father's presence in Hansley?"Darius' pupils contracted. He frowned and eyed the black-robed person warily. "What are you trying to say?"The black-robed person raised an eyebrow mockingly. "I was just pointing out something you'd already noticed. How do you expect me to answer you? I think my answer would be useless regardless of what I say. You'll just think I'm lying. It won't help you in any way."The black-robed person put his hands behind his back and shrugged. Darius breathed deeply and looked up at the black-robed person again.He nodded and said, "Since you're unwilling to say anything, I'll have to try other methods. I'll kill you and channel my life force into your brain. Then, I'll have access to all your memories." As he spoke, he channeled his black li

"You should be proud of the fact that you're still alive and floating. And you mentioned my father earlier, didn't you? That's not something I can sweep under the rug. You probably prepared yourself for a terrible death when you mentioned him," said Darius.He sighed. "I've been kind to you, you know. I haven't done anything to harm you thus far, have I? I allowed you to mock and insult me for so long, yet you don't seem satisfied."Darius shook his head. "I'll give you another chance to speak, but you'd better think before you do. Don't be rash." He swung his hand downward, making the black-robed person slam onto the ground where his legs had been injured.He screamed in pain again and stared at Darius in terror. He felt like Darius was a devil from hell. He gulped, suddenly regretting accepting this mission. His mind raced as he shut his eyes and tried to think of what Darius would want to hear.A few seconds later, he said, "I-I'm sorry, Mr. Reid. I shouldn't have mentioned your fa

"Now that I think about it, you were probably trying to drag things out with your so-called obedience earlier." Darius curled his lips and stretched out his arm. He aimed right for the black-robed person's neck, making Hansley gasp.He didn't expect things to turn out like this. He was about to say something when Darius said icily, "Don't forget the predicament you're in, Hansley. You can't guarantee whether you'll make it out of this alive. Stop trying to help others."Darius turned back to the black-robed person, who was trembling. He didn't expect his end to come so quickly. He gnashed his teeth, unwilling to accept his fate. Then, he looked at Darius resolutely.Darius raised an eyebrow and said, "I'm sure you have reasons for acting like this. I want to know what they are. Don't try to pull anything funny; you know how you'll end up if you do."The black-robed person glared at Darius. "No one starts out wanting to be a bad guy. We all want to be kind, but I wasn't given the chanc

Darius couldn't help thinking things were more complex than he'd imagined. Though he'd expected this, it still made him feel powerless. This was especially so as he listened to the stories people recounted. He sighed."I already know about these things. Is there anything else that you have yet to mention?" said Darius.The black-robed person's head whipped up in shock. Never had he imagined Darius would already know about these things. He appraised Darius, wanting to see whether he was just bluffing. Soon, he had his answer, but it wasn't the one he wanted.A look of despair crept onto his face. He couldn't detect any trace of Darius lying. As far as he could tell, Darius was being completely honest. It made him tremble. He gulped and said shakily, "N-No, that's it.""I've already told you everything I know. You wouldn't be able to get anything else out of me even if you were to kill me."Darius glanced at him, then at Hansley. Fear washed over them both, and sweat beaded on their for

"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
