The Consortium's Heir Chapter 270
If Darius had not done detailed research on the duo, he would have believed Cerys was Wilson’s enemy from the latter’s violence toward her.Wilson could tell Darius was now seeing him in a negative light. However, he refrained from speaking about Cerys and just stood there, watching Darius. “Now that it’s no longer noisy out here,” he said, “We can discuss the conditions for me transferring the Gillette Group’s shares to you.” Darius approvingly grinned as he scrutinized the former’s stern expression. That was the first time since Darius had arrived there that Wilson gave off the aura he should have had—the authoritative energy of being the Gillette Group’s chairman. Still, Darius sat there emotionlessly and quietly while sipping on his coffee. Yet, as he lifted his cup, Wilson’s secretary reached an arm out to him. She also spoke in a more honeyed tone than before. “Mr. Reid, your coffee has gone cold. Why don’t you hand it to me? I’ll fetch a fresh, piping hot cup for you.”A stroke of

“I’ll accept your condition as you’re already being so generous,” Darius said while getting off the bench to stand. He shoved his hands in his pockets, turned, then headed for the Gillette family’s villa. “Since both our secretaries aren’t here, only you are available to draft an agreement on our share transfer.”Wilson shut his eyes. Yet, a second later, he rushed up to Darius and entered his villa alongside the latter. A look of resignation shrouded his face like a dark cloud, but Wilson had to do so to survive. After all, there was no telling if he could keep Remnard Estate; perhaps the estate’s villa and every piece of furniture inside it would no longer be his if he disobeyed Darius. There were many thoughts in Wilson’s head, but he kept his face blank the entire time. When he entered the study, he found Darius sitting on the ergonomic chair behind the desk. The latter even considerately turned the monitor and keyboard in Wilson’s direction, ready to have the agreement drafted.Wils

Although it hurt for Wilson to bow since Darius was still grabbing his hair, he still did it.Darius’ brow quirked. It shocked him to see the former doing that, so he loosened his grip and clapped his palms together, dusting them. He then pointed at the keyboard, stating, “Starting now, I want you to finish drawing up the share transfer agreement. However, in addition to the agreement, you’ll hand over all assets, excluding cash, under your name to me.”Wilson’s eyes grew wide before he compliantly sat down. Yet, he did not touch the keyboard. Instead, he snapped icily, “You’re truly something, Darius Reid! I may have lost today, but your current actions have crossed the line!”He spoke in a controlled tone and seemed calm, as though he was not the one in danger. Yet, he was profusely sweating beneath his clothes. He knew if this continued for even a single minute, his sweat would seep into his clothes, revealing how anxious he secretly felt. That would mean he had lost the battle entirel

A relieved sigh slipped out of Wilson when he saw Darius slowing to a halt. In his eyes, that meant the latter was willing to help him. However, he was oblivious to how Darius was one step ahead and had figured out the tank meant bad news. Darius had merely stopped to ponder the best course of action—to let Wilson die now or save him. He did not have to think for much longer, though, as a man soon exited one of the tanks and approached him with a baseball bat. Darius then quirked a brow before deciding to stay silent.Contrarily, the approaching man did not share the same sentiment. He stood before Darius, rage causing the tips of his ears to redden. He gripped the baseball bat so hard that even the veins running down his forearms popped.Still, he gritted his teeth, suppressing his wrath to say, “I’m Benji Anderson. I believe you’ve guessed my family background now that you know my last name.”Darius’ brows raised upon seeing the former. He never thought someone could behave so formally

That ticked Benji off entirely. He pickedup the bat again, hoping to strike Darius down. This time, things still did notgo as he wanted because Kate ran over to defend Darius. Kate extended both arms in front, grippingBenji’s bat tightly and stopping it from lowering further. A reddish tingeseeped into the whites of her eyes and to her cheeks.“Uncle Benji, would you rather believe theguys who released this video instead of me? Don’t you know those people framedme to get my dad’s wealth? Isn’t it too convenient that they uploaded thisvideo now when my dad is missing? They’re the ones benefitting the most fromthis situation—not me and Darius!”Benji’s face warped, still cautious butslightly convinced, so he retracted his bat. Feeling things click into place, Dariusraised a brow while examining the onlookers behind him. They had been standingaround for some time but did not speak. Because of that, Darius assumed theywere security guards or other staff members hired for the

“Let’s leave for now. I promise I’ll proveto you later that I’m not lying,” Kate explained.The chaotic scene was what Wilson saw whenhe rushed out to the yard. He froze, unable to take another step now thateveryone had seen him exit his villa. Wilson was in a dilemma as it was notappropriate for him to stay or leave, and even if he did try to excuse himself,there was no right way to do so.Benji’s eyes were still glued to Darius,not bothering to spare even a sideways glance at Wilson. His fingers tautenedaround the bat again while his breathing grew heavy.Standing opposite the former, Darius kepthis hands in his pockets. It seemed as though he was unperturbed, despite beingthe target of Benji’s murderous glares. That only pissed Benji off more. He groundhis teeth against each other so hard that his jaw hardened. At the same time,he made sure to enunciate his following insult, “Fucking scumbag!”Indeed, Benji saw Darius as nothing morethan a complete scumbag. He felt an

Wilson frowned,feeling distressed. He didn’t know how to react to this. After a short momentof consideration, he decided to tell Calypso the truth. So, he turned aroundand looked at her.Before he couldsay anything, the person beside him cleared his throat. It made him jolt, andhe turned to look at Darius. Then, he saw Darius turn away nonchalantly as ifnothing had happened.In that instant,Wilson tensed up. He understood what Darius had meant! This realization souredhis mood because it was a skill only subordinates needed to have when dealingwith their superiors. In his case, he’dpicked it up without even putting in the effort to. His expression becamecomplicated.However, hedidn’t dare look at Darius again after his hint. A few seconds later, he turnedback to look at Calypso. This was her first time experiencing the feeling ofhaving his eyes on her, and she blushed. She fiddled with the hem of herclothes, and her tone was odd as she said, “Mr. Gillette,when I was i

However, itturned out that he just didn’t know his siblings well enough. In fact, perhapshe didn’t understand them at all. For instance, he felt like Calypso was atotal stranger.His eyes reddenedat these thoughts, but he didn’t cry. He stood there with his hands behind hisback, slowly balling them into fists.Silence descendedupon them. Calypso remained kneeling on the ground, her eyes still dartingaround, but she didn’t say anything.Benji couldalready tell what her answer was. He didn’t expect her to show her disdain forhim so outwardly. He gulped and said hoarsely, “Since you’re not sayinganything, I’ll take it that you think I make sense and that you’ve given up onyour ludicrous idea.”Calypso glared athim and shouted shrilly, “Benji Anderson! Don’t think you have the right tojudge and interfere in my life just because you’re two years older! You’re agood-for-nothing loser, and you’re trying to make me end up like you!”Darius admiredthe shocked look on Benji’s fac
