The next morning, Darius woke up much later than he usually did. This was expected, as he slept very late the previous day.He began his morning routine as soon as he woke up. He practiced the meditation techniques in the tattered book his grandfather gave him, before practicing his martial arts.Once he was done with his morning routine, he took a quick shower to freshen up. After taking his shower, he had a waitress send his breakfast up to his room. He was almost done with his breakfast when his phone rang.He checked the caller ID and saw that it was Bruce who was calling him. He answered the phone call and put the phone on speaker.“Hello Young Master Reid.” Bruce greeted the moment the call connected.“Hello Bruce.” Darius responded coolly.“I have completed the in-depth review of Gillette Group. I have also added the cause of the conflict between Chamberlains Corporation and Gillette Group to the review.” Bruce said.“Alright. Thank you for your help Bruce.” Darius said sincere
“Stop yelling at each other.” A weak voice said. The moment the Chamberlains family members heard the voice, they immediately stopped yelling at each other and turned to the direction of the voice. “Grandpa!” Liam, Tanner and other members of the Chamberlain family shouted at the same time. A few seconds later, an old man could be seen descending the staircase in the villa. He was accompanied by a man seemingly in his early seventies. Everyone present knew who the man was. He was their grandfather most trusted butler and assistant. Tanner hastily arranged a sofa for his grandfather to sit. When his grandfather was comfortably seated, the butler emptied a bottle of water into a cup, and then handed it over for their grandfather to drink. Their grandfather emptied the contents of the cup before setting down the cup on the table. “I heard about the precarious situation of the Chamberlains Corporation.” Evans, their grandfather started. When the people present heard their grandfathe
[Dragon Lord Imperial Residence]2 hours agoDarius entered his study room and switched on his laptop. He checked his inbox and saw that Bruce had already e-mailed him the in-depth review of the Gillette Group. Delighted, he opened the file and read through it.Darius was a bit surprised at the overview of the business group. From the overview, it was safe to say that the Gillette Group was a little above average in Almiron City, which was where their headquarters was located.Now very curious, Darius read further into review.As Darius read through the information on the Gillette Group, a myriad of emotions showed on his face, and by the time he was done reading the review, his curious expression was now replaced with a blank one.It was no wonder that the Gillette Group could thoroughly suppress Chamberlains Corporations; as the Gillette Group was a subsidiary of Dream Investment Group!Th
The family members present turned to Liam in astonishment. They did not expect that Liam who looked so dejected would suddenly spring up to his feet invigorated.Liam looked around the room with his eyes widened in shock. He hastily put his phone on loudspeaker so that they could hear the whole conversation before speaking.“Hello. Am I speaking to Liam Chamberlain?” the caller asked professionally from the other end of the phone.“Yes, I am Liam Chamberlain!” Liam answered energetically.“I’ll repeat what I said earlier.” The caller said politely.“I am Zack Lyle from West Atlantics Int’l, and I would like to invest in your company.”Everyone, including Pearl, looked at Liam with their eyes widened from shock.Invest in their company?!They could feel their hopes being rekindled once more when they heard Zack’s words, but they forced themselves to calm down.While it was great news that a company was willing to invest in them, they didn’t think much about it. At most, it would be a s
Meanwhile, while the members of the Chamberlain family were celebrating the miracle that happened to them, Darius was relaxing on a chair beside his indoor pool with a glass of wine.He had already done his best to save Pearl’s father company. With the investment from his company, they should be able to scale through this crisis.Regarding the Gillette Group, Darius vowed that the father and son pair will face the consequences of their crimes, both past and present.He couldn't stand the injustice done to the victims of their crimes. He had already told Bruce of this, and the father and son pair would be detained by the police shortly.Darius couldn't care less whether his actions would offend Dream Investment Group because the Gillette Group was a subsidiary of theirs. The influence that a consortium wielded was terrifying, and not something that just anyone could withstand.Darius stood up and removed his bathrobe at that moment, revealing his terrifically built body. He was left in
Darius had just finished meeting with the top executives of Century Enterprises, a top company in Eden city which was under the Reid consortium when his phone rang.He checked the caller ID and saw that it was an unknown number. However, he decided to answer the phone call.“Hello.” Darius said as he answered the call.There was a brief moment of silence before the caller spoke up.“Hello. Is this Darius Reid?” the caller asked.Darius was taken aback when he heard the caller’s voice.The caller was definitely a lady.This situation piqued Darius’ interest. He could feel like he had heard the caller’s voice before, but couldn’t place where it was.“Yes, I am Darius Reid.” Darius answered.There was another brief moment of silence. When the caller didn’t speak up for a few seconds, Darius couldn’t help but break the uncomfortable silence.“Who is this and how I may help you?” Darius asked. There was a tinge of slight impatience in his voice as he asked.Albeit he was curious about the
The next day, Zack arrived at the Greenspring Residence and headed straight to the Chamberlains villa. There, he and Liam discussed the contract in details before signing it.The moment the contract was signed; Zack transferred $100 million to the company’s account as promised, successfully resolving the issue.After signing the contract, Liam accompanied Zack outside the villa. He tried to invite him out for a meal, but Zack immediately turned him down, saying that he had so many things to do, and this meeting was just one of them.Liam had no choice but to accept Zack’s words. He didn’t want to risk offending his benefactor by persuading him, so he simply chose to accompany him.Following Zack’s departure, the family members of the Chamberlains present wished Liam well before leaving.Their departure was well expected, as they had their own businesses to attend to. The only reason they were here was because their backer, the Chamberlains Corporations was in trouble. Now that the iss
“West Atlantics Int’l?” The figure asked domineeringly.Beads of sweat formed on Alan’s head as the figure asked. His aura was just too overwhelming, and Alan felt like he had been submerged in a bucket of ice.“Y-yes.” Alan stuttered.There another was a brief moment of silence, and the figure withdrew his suffocating aura before he finally spoke up.“Tell me more about this company.”Alan heaved a sigh of relief after the figure withdrew his aura before proceeding to tell the figure all the details he knew about West Atlantics Int’l.As Alan spoke, the figure listened with rapt attention, and by the time Alan was done speaking, there was an indiscernible smirk on his lips.“Interesting.” The figure commented.According to Alan, West Atlantics Int’l was a new investment company based in Capital city, and the sole chairman was a young man in his twenties who was acquainted with Tyrell Sanders of the Sanders Group.Perhaps, the young man had a very impressive background, which was why
