“Mr. Reid! There is trouble!” Erin yelled anxiously from the other end of the phone the moment Darius answered the phone call.Darius frowned at Erin’s anxious tone. Since he knew Erin, she had always been composed no matter the situation. Now that she was this anxious, he could guess that the matter wasn’t so simple.“Erin, calm down and talk to me. What is going on?” Darius asked steadfastly.Erin took a deep breath and exhaled before speaking slowly. As she spoke, the frown on Darius’ face grew increasingly prominent, and by the time Erin was done talking, Darius had a huge frown on his attractive face.“Okay. I got it. Thank you.” Darius said, and then ended the phone call abruptly. He then walked over to his bedside table and took the TV remote on the table before switching the TV in his room on.“…And coming next is news about the Chairman of the fast rising investment company in Capital City, West Atlantics Int’l.”The television station was the one of the biggest news channel

Meanwhile, Darius was already speeding towards Serene Hospital. Naturally, he had no idea about his grandfather’s plans. His thoughts were totally occupied with the old man’s death.After minutes of driving speedily, Darius arrived at the hospital. He parked the car neatly and then rushed to the old man’s room, without paying any attention to anybody.When he opened the door, Dr. Langhan was already waiting for his arrival with an expectant expression on his face.“Mr. Reid.” Dr. Langhan called out carefully.Darius ignored him and walked straight to the old man’s lifeless body on the bed. Darius didn’t say anything and stared at the old man’s body with a complicated expression on his face. Darius back was turned to Dr. Langhan, so he couldn’t see the expression on Darius’ face.The two of them maintained a period of silence for over five minutes, before Darius finally spoke up.“What happened exactly? Wasn’t his condition stabilized already?” Darius asked.Dr. Langhan sighed forlornl

[West Atlantics Int’l headquarters, Capital City.]The atmosphere in the company’s regal building was dull and tense. The workers were all moving about their daily activities with gloomy and forlorn expressions, unlike the usual bustling attitude they had previously.The employees were not to be blamed however, as they had already seen the negative news about the chairman of their company. They were seasoned employees, so they knew how detrimental the effects of such news could be to their company.The higher ups, such as Erin and Zack, were more depressed at the situation at hand. The company was still a very new one, so they were feeling aggrieved about the current turn of events. If their chairman was unable to resolve this issue, then it would be a huge setback in their already laid out plans.The news had been embellished greatly by the media, so it had succeeded in creating a false impression about the chairman of West Atlantics Int’l.The public didn’t know the full details reg

Erin and Zack both felt chills run down their spine as they looked at Darius who had a smile on his face. Although he was smiling, his gaze was extremely frightening.“Zack, bring me the list of companies that backed out from the projects we’re supposed to invest in.” Darius suddenly said.Zack jolted from his thoughts in shock before hurrying away to obey Darius’ instructions. Seconds later, Zack returned with a pile of documents in his hands which he then carefully handed over to Darius.Darius collected the documents and read through it, and just minutes later, he gave his verdict.“Remove Terra International, Venus Inc., and Sky Industries from our company’s database." Darius issued an unexpected command.“From now on, West Atlantics Int’l will not have or entertain any form of business with these three companies.” Darius concluded with a tone of finality.Both Erin and Zack looked at Darius in astonishment. They didn’t expect his sudden decision at all. It was way too rash!Dariu

[Sterling Corporations, Capital City]The Chairman’s office; 10:00 amA man in his late fifties sat behind a large mahogany desk in what appeared to be a slightly above average office. He had a bald head, beady eyes that appeared shrewd, and an average face. The mahogany desk was littered with numerous documents, and the man was busy scribbling on them.Suddenly, the door to his office opened abruptly, and an equally average man rushed into the office in a panicked manner.Hector Sterling, the current chairman of Sterling Corporation looked at the average man in distaste. The average man was of course his secretary, and his sudden entrance irked him greatly, as it interrupted his concentration. Just as he was about to rebuke his secretary, a loud voice cut him off.“There’s big trouble President Hector!” the average man shouted frightfully.Hector frowned slightly at his secretary words, and forced his reprimand down his throat.“What is it?” Hector asked, his tone dripping with disda

“Sterling Corporations are being investigated for tax evasion worth over $150 million.”Hector’s face became pale at the headline on the TV station. His eyes widened in shock at the news.Tax evasion!This was why the bank and loan companies suddenly demanded him to pay back his loans in twenty four hours time!“You’re completely incompetent, Mr. Hector.” The bigwig said, displeasure lacing his tone.“I can explain!” Hector said frantically, but the bigwig cut him short.“It was a pleasure doing business with you Mr. Hector. Sadly, our deal is off now.” The bigwig announced in a tone of finality before disconnecting the phone call abruptly.Hector looked at the phone in disbelief. He dialed the bigwig’s number the next minute. It rang only once before it disconnected again. The next time Hector called the number, it didn’t go through. He didn't have to be a genius to realize he'd been blocked.“F*ck!” Hector yelled angrily and scattered everything on his desk, before slumping back to

[West Atlantics Int’l, Capital City]Darius’ eyes shone when he heard Hector’s answer.The Gold Group!Darius had never expected that the person who was behind everything was the head of the Gold Group.“I see.” Darius replied calmly, despite the shock he felt.“I’ve told you what you wanted to know now. I hope you’ll fulfill your promise.” Hector said between gritted teeth from the other end of the phone. “Rest assured. I’ll keep my end of the deal.” Darius smiled and replied, before disconnecting the phone call.After disconnecting the phone call, Darius interlocked his fingers, rested his chin on his fingers and fell into deep thoughts.The Gold Group was Capital City's third largest business group, with a net worth in the billions of dollars. Of course, the Reid Consortium could easily crush them, but Darius had not considered this option.The Gold Group targeted West Atlantics Int’l, not the Reid Consortium; therefore he would go against the Gold Group using the strength of West

The next few days were straightforward for Darius. When he got back to the Reid mansion that day, related the basics of what happened to Bruce, but didn’t go into much details. He then took a well deserved rest.He had been so incredibly busy, as the meeting with Tyrell Sanders, the assassination incident that took Tyrell’s bodyguard’s life, the accident with the old man, and the attack on West Atlantics Int’l all happened in less than 48 hours. Darius was not a machine, so it was only normal that he would be extremely exhausted after dealing with such issues.Since his grandfather was not coming back until two weeks later, Darius felt that there was no need waiting for his arrival, especially with his busy schedule; hence he took the initiative to leave the Reid mansion. At most, he promised to return back to the mansion when his grandfather was back from his business trip.Darius then left the Reid mansion and went back to his residence at Dragon Estate. Of course, he took the Merce
