The Consortium's Heir Chapter 437
All he knew was that he’d suddenly lost his balance while watching things play out, and he’d stumbled in Darius’ direction. In that instant, he thought, “I’m dead meat.” He watched as the distance between him and Darius shortened, but he didn’t think it was something worth being happy over. Then, something flashed before him, and there was now nothing between him and the floor. He relaxed and let himself fall to the floor with a loud crash.The dark-suited board member’s eyes twitched at the loud thud, and he looked up at Darius. “Mr. Reid, Timmy may not be the smartest, but he’s strong. He’s been by my side since he was a child; he may have just been there to practice martial arts with me, but he’s put plenty of effort into his training. He’s not the best, but he’ll probably be of a little more use than a normal employee.”His gaze was now calm and settled. “Everything that’s happened today just shows how much of a loser I am, which means I’m no longer in the running to become my fa

Darius heard someone’s phone vibrate, and he turned to look at the other board members. He smiled when he saw them sitting there silently with their backs straight. “Now that we’ve taken care of everything, you can leave if you want to.” He grabbed the contract, then strode out of the conference room. Now, he owned 94.5% of FT TV’s shares, meaning his opinion was the only one that mattered here. That wasn’t his style, however.When he stepped out of the conference room and saw the numerous gazes trained on him, he knew what was up. They’d all heard about what had happened in the room. This was one of the main reasons he’d insisted on getting the dark-suited board member’s shares—before the meeting, he’d already sensed the eyes and ears on them.It was a shock. To him, this wasn’t something a normal company would allow, but a TV station had allowed word to get out. And that was why everyone already knew about what happened. Darius believed that the other TV stations would already be

Bridget’s eyes widened. Then, she nodded. “I understand, sir. I think you should get ready for the authorities’ arrival—there’s probably going to be a tough battle when they get here. This battle will establish our status in Almiron City for a long time to come.” She looked at Darius seriously.“Yeah.” He sat down, crossed his legs at the knee, and frowned. “I know what you’re worried about, and you’re right to be worried.” He gave her a thumbs up. “You’re very smart, and it’s very likely your prediction will come true… if the official that comes isn’t the smartest.”Darius narrowed his eyes, then said, “Well, I hope that doesn’t happen. Otherwise, the whole of Almiron City will end up in chaos.” His voice was soft, but it still made Bridget shudder. She turned to look out the window, then turned back, pulled her phone out, and checked the time. She said, “Mr. Reid, I called the authorities when I was at the entrance. Their office is only three streets away from here, so they should

Darius raised an eyebrow and looked at the official with surprise. He didn’t expect him to be so blunt, and a trace of admiration flashed in his eyes. He liked people like him, so he nodded decisively. “Sure. I’d be glad to invest in an orderly and lawful city.” As he spoke, he got to his feet and turned to look at Bridget. “I think I can entrust this to you.”She didn’t say a word, but her frown was enough to show her displeasure. Darius saw this, but he didn’t allow her to reject him. “You should know that with Zack’s disappearance and Erin’s departure, there aren’t many people left that I can trust. This is a key part of my plan, and it means a lot to Almiron City—I need someone I can trust wholeheartedly to handle it.”Bridget knew what he was getting at and understood that this wasn’t something she could turn down. Her brows were still furrowed, but she nodded. Then, she turned to look at the official and said, “Hello, my name’s Bridget Manson. I’m Mr. Reid’s bodyguard.”The off

“At the same time, this means that I won’t allow anyone to question my decisions. I need you to set up a proper regulatory framework instead of allowing this mess to continue. Your actions worry me, and I have to reconsider our cooperation. In the meantime, I want you to arrest these people who’ve broken the federation’s laws.” Darius turned to leave without another look at the official.To his surprise, the petite woman didn’t intend to let him leave. She shouted, “What right do you have to act so high and mighty? You might be wealthy, but it’s not like you’re the one who amassed such a massive fortune! Once Almiron City’s government is established, you’ll definitely regret this!”Darius stopped, and the official paled. He waved his hands anxiously when Darius turned to look at him, saying, “No, we don’t mean that. Rest assured that we’ll never go against the law, not even when Almiron City’s government is as powerful as the other cities. Please, you have to believe me; we’ve never w
The Consortium's Heir Chapter 442
The people who’d been secretly trying to send the updates on the situation at FT TV to other TV stations were rounded up, cuffed, and led out of the building. At this moment, Priscilla started acting up again.When her gaze landed on one of the cuffed men, she stiffened, and her eyes widened. Then, she turned to look at Darius.Uriah was sensitive enough to his surroundings that he immediately noticed this. He didn’t know what was happening, but he still kept a tight grip on Priscilla’s arm. Then, he turned to look at the men they were leading out of the building. He scrutinized their faces, then frowned—he didn’t recognize any of them, but this didn’t seem to be the case for Priscilla.This had never happened in the past. Priscilla didn’t have the chance to meet anyone new, so this wasn’t a situation he was used to being in. He lowered his voice, but everyone still heard him ask, “What’s going on? Why are you so agitated? Don’t you know these people have broken the law?”There was a

He had a bad feeling about this. Lo and behold, he was right—as he looked around, he saw that Priscilla had almost reached Darius. As she lunged at him, she heard him lazily say, “Don’t move.”Bridget frowned and looked at Darius worriedly. This didn’t seem to have any effect on Darius, though. He merely looked like he was enjoying the show, and she suddenly realized that he was excited to see what would happen next. So, she crossed her arms, waiting to see how things would play out.Everyone thought Darius was Priscilla’s target, and this included Darius himself. However, they were wrong. Priscilla was aiming for the man standing behind him. Darius raised an eyebrow, looking at Uriah curiously. Once Priscilla discovered people were getting arrested, she hadn’t even spared Uriah a glance.Perhaps the pity in his eyes was too obvious—Uriah’s face darkened. Darius didn’t say anything else at this and turned to look at the people behind him. He had to admit that Uriah’s men weren’t half

“Why? Don’t you think you’re being unfair? Tell me—what exactly is the relationship between you and that freakishly barbaric man beside you? When did you guys start seeing each other? And how far have you guys gone behind my back?” With every question, Uriah took one step forward. As Uriah approached Priscilla, a look of relief flickered in her eyes. Seeing that, Darius smirked, knowing what Priscilla was about to do. Thus, when Uriah was about to leave the safe space behind Darius’ outstretched arms, Darius reached out to grab and pull Uriah back.Priscilla’s eyes widened in disbelief at Darius.Opposite her, Darius merely chuckled before turning around to look at Uriah. “If you go to her, you’ll fall right into her trap. That’s what Priscilla wants to happen—that way, she can hold you hostage. Her hands have been behind her back this entire time because she’s hiding a knife,” he calmly explained.Yet, after saying that, he raised his brows while turning to sneer at Priscilla. “I m
