The Consortium's Heir Chapter 188
By the time Darius realized they’d been circled, the men had already gotten out of the cars, and Hank was in the lead. He had to be held up by people on both sides to stand. There was dried blood on his face, and his eyes were red with fury.This was Erin’s second time encountering something like this, and she wasn’t as nervous as the first time. Her breathing sped up, but she quickly calmed down. She turned to look at Darius. “Mr. Reid, what should we do now?”Darius pressed his fingers to his temple. Hank was the stupidest guy he’d ever met and was a waste of space. So, when he put down his hand and opened his eyes, all one could see was his frosty gaze.Erin knew the frostiness wasn’t directed at her, but she still shuddered. When Darius spoke, it made her tremble even more. He paused and looked at her but quickly averted his gaze. “You only need to do two things right now. Firstly, inform the university that I’ll be gone for a month. Secondly, get me a ticket to Almiron City.”Erin sta

Hank was already starting to regret it, but no one was left to protect him except for two bodyguards. So, he grabbed them by the wrists and pushed them forward. “You two, beat him up! You’re only allowed to stop when he’s on the ground, or I’ll hold you two responsible for this! And if you don’t buy me enough time to escape, I’ll…”He didn’t get to finish his sentence and stood there, mouth agape and eyes wide. Darius had suddenly appeared before him, and he was terrified. As far as he knew, no normal human could move at such a speed. Now, however, he was proven wrong. A scene he’d never even imagined had happened before his very eyes. This was beyond his understanding, and he was fearful.He turned to look at Darius, lips trembling. He stammered out, “W-what are you doing?” Obviously, he was terrified, but Darius didn’t intend to let him off the hook.The two bodyguards were dumbstruck. Darius was like a gust of wind. He’d disappeared before their very eyes and reappeared behind them. Th

This was Darius’ first time actually harnessing this energy and trying to make it reach someone’s exact location. Naturally, he failed, and the energy landed on the car next to the martial artist, making it explode. Once again, the tar was blown to smithereens.There was a flash of panic in the martial artist’s eyes, but it quickly disappeared. His gaze turned disdainful as he looked at Darius. “Your energy’s powerful, but the fact that you can’t control it means it’s basically useless to you.” As he spoke, his body seemed to waver.Darius sensed the martial artist appearing before him, but something weird happened in the process—he could clearly see every single action the martial artist made, including how he came over. Another thing that surprised him was that everything around him seemed to happen in slow motion when the energy flowed through him. This accidental discovery was a good one, and it made him smile uncontrollably.The martial artist thought he was mocking him and scowled.

As he stretched, he asked, “Have you taken care of everything?”Erin looked awkward as she shook her head. “I’m sorry about this, but the university refused to approve your leave because they said that you may not even be one of their students anymore.”Her words made him realize what was going on. After a moment of thought, he nodded and said,“Take me to the university now. I think I need to discuss with the dean whether I’m still one of Kingston University’s students.”Erin had never doubted him, so she drove to the university. When they arrived, the sky had yet to darken, and the students still had class. Darius headed straight for the dean’s office and knocked on the door.Soon, an aged voice said, “Come in.” Darius walked in and met the dean’s eyes, clearly seeing the shock there. He didn’t expect to see this in the dean’s eyes, which made him suspicious. It was true that his sudden appearance was a surprise, but the dean’s reaction was still unexpected.He asked, “Dean Fletcher, you s

After saying that, he looked like he was excited for the show to start.What Darius did next surprised him—he turned the computer on, looked for a dissertation Leon had written, pulled it up, and showed it to him. He said seriously, “I once read a dissertation that’s very similar to yours, and it was published three years ago. Dean Fletcher, I’d like you to prove that you wrote this dissertation independently and didn’t copy someone else’s work.”As he spoke, he pulled his phone out. “I hope that you’ll be able to give me a reasonable explanation. Otherwise, I’ll have grounds to suspect that you committed plagiarism, and I’ll report you to the authorities.”Leon had imagined plenty of different ways Darius would react, but this definitely wasn’t one of them. He took a deep breath and glared at Darius, saying, “Are you sure that’s what you want to do? You’re crossing the line here.”Darius nodded. “We used the same methods, didn’t we? Why are you mad? Also, you don’t have any way to prove y

It was because of her concern that he showed no displeasure. On the contrary, he smiled and said patiently, “No, I’m here and not at the detention center because I’ve already proved my innocence.”Pearl let out a sigh of relief and patted her chest lightly. She smiled and said, “If I’d known, I wouldn’t have come here. I was worried that you’d be in danger if you couldn’t prove your innocence, so I came here to help you out. At the very least, I could ensure you’d still be a student here.”Darius was moved by her words and curious to know what else she was up to. So, he shrugged and said, “You showed up in the right time. Dean Fletcher doesn’t believe the authorities’ decision, nor does he believe what I told him. He doesn’t want me to continue studying here.”Pearl’s eyes widened in disbelief. “That’s ridiculous!” She turned to Leon and said, “Dean Fletcher, I’m sure there must be a misunderstanding. Maybe we can solve things if you let us know your concerns.”Before Darius could say anyt

Darius raised his arm, pulled back his sleeve to look at his watch, then placed his hands on the table. “You’ll have loads of free time in the future, Dean Fletcher, while I’ll be busier. If you want an easier time at the detention center, I suggest you stand and speed this whole process up.”Leon’s eyes narrowed the slits at Darius. “You’re too arrogant, Darius Reid! Sooner or later, you’ll pay for it!”Darius did not respond to that. His expression remained blank as he put his hands in his pockets, turned toward the official, and said, “I think we should go now.”“I agree,” replied the official in a neutral tone. Subsequently, Darius exited the space with the group of officials in tow.Pearl never imagined she would witness such a scene. Her jaw dropped, and she did not know how to respond.That continued until Darius stepped outside the dean’s office. Only then did Pearl finally speak. “Darius, I think I should go with you because I can prove that you wrote your dissertation. Plus, I als

Darius and the official were no longer within Donny’s hearing range.The latter, also Donny’s friend, kept silent the entire time.It was later when Darius decided to speak up. “Are you worried Donny got detained because your chief has something to do with the mastermind behind my situation?”The official generously expressed their admiration for Darius, praising him, “You’re the top student at Kingston University, who’s genuinely exceptional and intelligent. That’s exactly how I feel. According to our rules, Donny shouldn’t even get detained, at least not until the case closes. Moreover, he shouldn't have received such a harsh punishment.”“It’s okay.” Darius was calm as he explained, “No matter what horrible things they do. I’ll deal with the root of what made this happen once Donny’s matter gets resolved.” The official’s eyes widened.Yet, it did not last as he immediately collected himself. “I can’t do much to aid you with that. All I can do is hope for your success and pray for
