The Consortium's Heir Chapter 403
Darius sensed the hesitancy in Bridget’stone and immediately knew the place was unsafe. Hence, he shook his head. “No, I won’t allow us to go there even ifthis place you’re bringing up is the same as what Ford mentioned. That’s not awise option for us. After all, Shelvin’s dead now, so we don’t have to obtainhis remaining body tissue. Besides, I’m sure Shelvin won’t mind if his tissuescan get transplanted into other talented people and give them a better chanceat life. He’s a kind man, after all.”Bridget’s eyes rounded at Darius. The ideaof giving Shelvin’s remains to create more powerful enemies terrified her, soshe wholly rejected it in her mind. Yet, she knew her place as a bodyguard;Bridget could not disobey her boss’ orders. She had always voiced her opinions beforebecause Darius was a more forgiving boss than most. With that in mind, Bridgetknew it was unwise to test the limits of his mercy. Thus, she shoved herthoughts deep down her heart and nodded, saying, “Ye

Daisy unleashed a piercing scream from theother end of the call. “Why? Why would you call the police over such a minorissue? What a waste of money! Plus, have you forgotten that we once workedtogether? I’m confident we’ll continue to see each other often for the samereasons.”She tightly clutched her chest and put on atearful expression while saying that. Unfortunately, she forgot that Dariuscould not see her since they were on the phone.“What you’re saying now makes no sense,”Darius coldly stated. “Nothing special has ever resulted from our meetings.Plus, your appearance back then always annoyed me. You also seem to haveforgotten that we’re on a voice call now, not a video call.”He briskly hung up and returned his phoneto his pocket after that. Placing his hands on his hips, he frowned whilescanning every inch of the area ahead, suspecting Daisy had likely hacked intothe security cameras to spy on him. It made him very uncomfortable.Next to him, Bridget noticed his exp

The bald man then grabbed the phone fromDaisy’s hand and boomed with a voice that sparked fear in others. “I suggest you show yourself before me now.Or else, I can guarantee you’ll end up miserably. Know this—I’m not asworthless as little Daisy here. Let’s hope you’re smart enough not tounderestimate the power of public opinion.”He hung up after saying that.Meanwhile, Darius knitted his brows uponhearing the click from the other end of the call. Everything had spiraledbeyond Darius’ initial plans. He raised his wrist to look at the time beforereturning his hand to his hips. At the same time, he sat in the driver’sseat, tapped the dashboard with his other hand, and sighed.Bridget had already gotten into the car,her face creasing with worry when she noticed Darius’ countenance. “Sir, I’m an enlightened martial artist.While I’m not nearly as skilled as you—oh, well, that doesn’t matter—” Beforeshe could finish speaking, Darius’ phone rang again, so she pursed her lipssh

Darius exhaled bitterly, adding, “That’ssomething I’ll change once I return to the company. Still, before we do that,you should rest up since you’ll need your full health to help me settle thingswhen we get back to West Atlantics Int’l. After all, you haven’t been therebefore, so working there will take a toll on you. The only difference aboutWest Atlantics Int’l is nobody will dare harm you under my watch. You’re safethere, which makes it better than this place.”“Yeah. No one would dare harm me at WestAtlantics Int’l because you own the company. It’s your turf,” replied Bridget,who smiled and nodded with the utmost conviction.That complete trust in Darius made hisheart skip a beat just then. Once he realized his erratic heartbeat, thecorners of his eyes creased into a curious stare at Bridget. Then, he turned away and shook his head.“You should know I’m not implying anything improper between us.”Bridget bit her lower lip, hesitating for amoment as she did not know why

Because of those complicated circumstances,Almiron City only had one television network—FT TV. Darius initially believed his suddenarrival would not attract anyone’s attention, but he had underestimated the manspeaking on the phone earlier.The man knew Darius would show up, so hehad already ordered someone to await the latter’s arrival at the televisionnetwork’s main entrance. Unfortunately, his estimations were slightly off, andDarius arrived at the scene 20 minutes later than predicted. Pissed off, the man raged in his mind, “Noone would dare treat me this way unless they aren’t aware of who I am and mypower!”With that, he shot up from the sofa andonto his feet. His abrupt movement caused his knee to hit and trip Daisy, whohad knelt beside him this entire time. Pain and shock caused Daisy to yelp sharplyas she fell, her two palms pressing against the floor to keep her sittingupright. She gawked at the man while pouting and asking in a meek tone, “Sir, Idon’t unders

“We’re warning you—leave at once!Otherwise, we’ll have the police deal with you!” the security guards bellowed.“I look forward to when that day comes.”Darius merely smiled at them and shoved one of the security guards aside by thecollar.That was when the elevator doors opened.Many people inside wanted to get out, but they could sense the overwhelmingtension outside once the doors cracked open, so they dared not move.Darius’ gaze swept past them, and just aseveryone inside was still tremblingly fleeing the elevator, his attentionreturned to the security guards. “Someone from this place told me to comeover. Thus, I ask that you let me see him now, or I can’t guarantee whetheryou’ll end up obliterated like that security gate earlier. FT TV has committeda heinous crime—they’ve reported several pieces of fake news and distorted thetruth. Because of that, my patience for your television network has reached itslimit.” He spoke calmly but in a way that emphasized he meant ever

The lead security guard’s breathingquickened, tickling Darius’ skin. However, there was nothing malicious abouthis expression; curiosity flickered in his eyes as he asked, “Why didn’t youstop me from getting in? You and I are the only ones in this elevator, so youcan easily break the surveillance cameras and attack me if you wish. It’s clearthat I’m no match for you. There’s no doubt I’ll get defeated if you strikenow.” He stared at Darius with a complicatedwhirlwind of emotions, but the one thing he did not feel was fear. Standingopposite Darius, he kept both hands by his sides while raising his head in arelaxed manner. Darius returned the former’s stare. Soon,the elevator arrived on the 10th floor, and a smile curved on Darius’ face. “Well, I’ll have to make your expectationsa reality then.” After saying that, he extended his arm. While nothing seemed unusual about hisaction, it set off a gust of wind inside the elevator. The wind blew somightily that the lead secur

Darius added, “Since the two of you calledme over, I think it’s only fair that you both face me in dealing with theissue.”The director shot up from the couch. Hisbelly rolls bounced like jelly as he dashed toward the door. It took him lessthan a second to do so.Daisy saw everything happen, her eyesrounding with interest for the humorous scene. She knew the director hadrecently gained a lot of weight, so he never made any explosive movements. Thatwas the first time Daisy saw him doing that.When the director finally arrived at thedoor, he placed one hand on his waist while hunching over and panting. Hisbreathing was so fast that anyone would have worried he would pass out in thenext second. Standing aside, Daisy lowered her head, butit was not out of worry; she did so to hide her smile. After all, Darius hadalready opened the door, so he and the director were awkwardly staring eachother down. Daisy kept her head low and pursed her lipstautly, suppressing her laughter.
