The Consortium's Heir Chapter 297
Edward frowned and hurriedly turned the steering wheel while explaining to Erin, “We’re about to collide with the other party’s car. It can’t be avoided, but I can assure you that we won’t get hurt.”Based on the few car chases he had experienced, he could tell that the other party’s driver did not want to harm them. Still, what happened next shocked him; Erin shook her head, saying, “No. What I’m most worried about now is Mr. Reid’s safety. I don’t care about anything or anyone. Not even getting into a car crash will faze me as long as I can get to Mr. Reid at once.”Fortunately, things turned out as Edward had expected; no one got hurt, nor did either side’s cars suffer any damage. Edward remained in his seat, massaging his temples. A raging headache pounded at his temples as he saw the many sports cars fleeing in the other direction. Not only that, but the drivers were all teenagers with brightly dyed hair, which meant they were all from wealthy families and seemed rebellious. T

“You’re a child, so I don’t want to aim my firearm at you. Consider this your last chance to lower your gun,” Edward commented with a neutral tone as he stood composedly. However, Maurice saw the former’s calmness as fear. He retracted his gun, casually leaning it against his shoulder while jutting his chin. He sat in his car, shutting the car door while mocking Edward through the open window, “Don’t you think the way you’re speaking to me is counterproductive to what you want me to do?”Edward remained unmoving but had already narrowed his eyes. No one could tell how he felt since he spoke emotionlessly the entire time. “I’m curious—what do you mean by that? I’d like to know what you think my motives are.”Maurice’s eyes widened. He wanted to know whether Edward was genuinely curious or if the latter was trying to embarrass him. His face then warped hideously compared to everyone else’s when he could not decipher Edward’s facial expression. He was both desperate and determined to

Taken aback, Edward whipped his head around to look at Erin. He immediately understood when he saw the beads of sweat on her forehead and the goosebumps all over her arms. Lips pursed, he headed back to her side.Time had never felt this slow to Erin before. Things already felt like they had been dragging on for a while, but Edward’s slow pacing made things worse for her. She glared daggers at him when he stopped to cast one last glance at the group of youngsters before finally running back to the car. Erin’s gaze was equally as frosty as her voice by then. She was quick to bark at him, “Get in.”That was the first time Edward had seen the icy side of Erin. However, he knew why she was upset, so he kept quiet and obediently got into the driver’s seat. Edward took longer than expected, not knowing how to respond to the group of youngsters that caused him so much trouble.He could tell some of the teenagers in the group were genuinely sorry but had to stick up for Maurice since they we

Austin lay on the ground, watching as Darius fell deep into thought. He could not help smugly raising his chin, saying, “Oh? Are you afraid now that you’ve heard my name? Let me tell you this—it’s too late to beg for my forgiveness now! Because, as the Anderson family’s only heir, I won’t let you off the hook easily!”He simultaneously gripped Darius’ foot, trying to push it off his chest. However, he soon clenched his jaw and narrowed his brows into a deep V when he failed to make Darius budge. The latter’s foot stayed unmoving on his body like a massive boulder, and he could not do anything about it.Having depleted his strength, he stopped resisting. His arms sprawled on the ground as he gritted his teeth. “I’m warning you! Get your foot off me now and kneel to prove your gratitude toward me for sparing you! Because in two days, I might become Anderson Group’s chairman! I promise that you would’ve gotten shot to death if you had crossed me after I inherited my family’s business!”

“Also, why hasn’t anyone tried to confirm whether he’s dead or alive? The bulk of your family was in a hurry to publicly announce his death after failing to contact him. Not to mention, you and your family members wasted no time battling over your family’s inheritance,” Darius added. He leaned against the car, eyes boring into Austin with curiosity.Only Austin could see the former’s expression as he lay on the ground, facing directly at Darius, who looked down at him. His eyes darted left and right as he thought, “Shit. I’m in deep trouble now. This guy’s right—no one has bothered to look for my nominal father, even though it’s been a while since he vanished. The only people searching for him are my stupid stepsister and this guy. However, I’m pretty sure Kate doesn’t know him because she’s an idiot. Contrarily, this guy clearly has superior wealth and abilities. Guys like him would never associate themselves with Kate, who only invites trouble into her life. That must mean this gu

Austin was still on the ground, his eyes glassy with fear. Edward had guessed every word he intended to say. However, the way Edward said those words made them sound less threatening. “Unless… he and that other guy earlier were never afraid of my family in the first place,” Austin thought. Realizing that, he quickly turned to look at Darius, who now sat in the car. He continued to ponder, “This man owns the latest gun model, which comes with a hefty price tag. It’s enough to purchase at least a quarter of Anderson Group’s shares! If I hadn’t accidentally seen the gun earlier, I wouldn’t have realized it was such an expensive model!”He then propped himself off the ground, sitting upright while still trembling. Throughout the process, he cautiously eyed Edward. He knew Edward was a skilled fighter and was worried the latter would stop him from trying to talk to Darius.If that were to happen, he would never get the chance to see Darius again. Fortunately, things went smoothly; Austin

Darius seemed very composed and did not even open his eyes while he nodded. Then, he opened his eyes, saying, “I’ve considered the possibility of this.”He rested his arm against the car window, fists curling as he continued wearily, “Given Austin’s age, he wouldn’t have the guts to behave this way if he didn’t have someone influential supporting him. Not to mention, he could never afford such an expensive sports car.”His deduction garnered a sharp inhale from Erin.“Judging from his looks, someone must’ve told him about his relationship with William not long ago while spoiling him rotten to gain his trust. When I got close to him earlier, I noticed he had sunburn marks on his body and calloused hands—something only manual laborers develop,” said Darius. He leaned further into the car seat, his eyes narrowing. “That person must’ve lied to Austin. Also, I bet said person owns some of Anderson Group shares. Otherwise, Austin wouldn’t have believed them.”“Try investigating from this an

“My adoptive family doesn’t treat me as well as the outside world believes. Also, the woman who took me away from the orphanage—well, she makes it clear how sick she is of me. My adoptive mother often expresses how helpless she is when I get picked on by everyone else, but I can tell she, too, doesn’t like me,” Maurice revealed, testing the waters as he cautiously looked at Darius.Yet, disappointment soon tightened his chest to know the answer he wanted never came.Darius continued to stare at Maurice, knowing what the latter was thinking. He secretly found it funny how the boy reacted. While everyone was still stunned by the sudden turn of events, he raised his hand, hovering it over Maurice’s head. That caused Maurice to stiffen, holding his breath until the former’s hand rested on his head. Only then did he calm down.Darius quirked a brow but kept his opinions to himself. All he did was calmly point out, “You were hoping to see if I knew your birth parents and whether I could te
