The Consortium's Heir Chapter 171
Darius heard the woman’s breathing speed up even more, showing her nervousness.He looked pleased with himself, and he stood up straighter. “I’m also guessing that she’s quite pretty and has blond hair. She’s probably also wearing a white lace mask.”The woman heard this. She wondered how he could tell what her hair was like from this angle and whether she’d accidentally left a strand behind. She was so focused on this train of thought that she didn’t register what he’d said about the mask.By the time she did, it was too late. The curtains before her were suddenly drawn, and her mind went blank.It was good that Darius had prepared for this situation—the woman let go of the window and started falling from the twenty-eighth floor.Fortunately for her, Darius caught her and dragged her back up into the office. The sudden rippling of his muscles made his brand-new shirt tear open.When the woman fell to the floor, her chest pressed against his bare arm, and her top was extremely low-cut. She l

This was beyond Darius’ expectations. He widened his eyes in surprise and was curious to know how Doris dealt with that.He glanced at her, but she didn’t look too happy. She didn’t want him to know how vicious she could be, but she could not shut Erin up. So, she bowed her head to hide her face from Darius.Erin saw this, but it didn’t matter. She wouldn’t do what Doris wanted, anyway. She said, “She had a small blade to protect herself, so she whipped it out and stabbed the man in the groin before running away.”Darius’ lip twitched. He was about to say something to mock Doris, but Erin didn’t give him a chance to. While trying to conceal her laughter, she said, “Sir, if I were you, I wouldn’t be too happy. What I’m going to tell you next about what she used to do will surprise you and make you mad.”This was his first time seeing Erin like this, and he was very curious to know what she was going to say.Erin said, “Every person Miss Gray stole from was affluent but had done plenty of ill

She pulled her phone out of her pocket as she spoke. She kept a hand over her gaping mouth for the next ten minutes. After a long while, she turned to look at Darius, “I’m so sorry about this. I had no idea you were so unfortunate.”Darius’ expression turned cold. No one had ever described him as unfortunate before. His lips couldn’t stop twitching. He couldn’t even think of the right words to describe his feelings. In the end, he chose to remain silent.This didn’t mean that his office was silent as well. Doris’ voice was getting louder and louder.Darius crossed his arms and leaned against the wall while observing her. She was pretty and had plenty of room to grow, but how she made a living limmited her potential. That wasn’t good, and he couldn’t just stand aside and watch while it happened. So, he walked out of the room while she continued screeching.He said, “Erin, I need you to find her an appropriate community college.”Erin was a bit suprised. She knew Darius was kind, and even if

Darius smirked a little at the look on her face. This was what he wanted to see.Doris had never seen so much money in her life, not even in the vault of the man who claimed to be the richest in the world. She’d even felt pleased with herself and wondered what had happened to the money.Now, she knew. The man who stood before her was the one who was truly rich! If she could take the money with her, there was no telling how many mouths she could feed. She smiled at this thought. It was nonsensical, of course.At this moment, Darius said something that made Doris feel like she was dreaming. “I had this money prepared with the intention of helping the poor. If you can graduate from college, you’ll be fully in charge of it.”Doris felt like she’d suddenly been transported to a different world altogether. There was no way a normal person would give a thief that much money—especially someone as rich as Darius. Then again, she’d heard that these rich people tended to have odd fetishes—maybe this

Doris didn’t say anything else until they reached the college’s entrance. When she heard Erin start to drive away, she suddenly spun around and cupped her hands around her mouth before shouting, “Mr. Reid, I really do like you! I’ll be here, and you can come over any time!”Her invitation was so obvious that it made Darius’ vein twitch. His abilities only made her voice sound louder in his ears.“Man, I was just thinking of going after her. Look at her face and those legs! Who would’ve known she’d be the type of woman to publicly confess her love for some rich man!”“Oh, my God! There’s another gorgeous woman in the car!”“Come on, forget about it. Let’s go. We obviously don’t stand a chance here.”Darius raised an eyebrow when he saw the young men standing nearby stalk off. He seemed to understand what Doris was up to now. Sure enough, when he glanced at her, he saw her cheeky smile. He didn’t even need to think to know what had happened—she’d used him!To his surprise, he didn’t fee

The bodyguards were sprawled on the ground, feeling like they were suffocating. The only emotion they could clearly sense was terror, but none of them showed it.This lasted until someone dropped to his knees. Everyone else followed suit. Darius stuck his hands in his pockets and looked down at them. “Perhaps you guys have something to tell me?”The bodyguards had never been in such a pickle before, especially since they only had two options—to die or to betray the one who pays. They didn’t want to go for either of these options.Darius sighed, then raised his voice. “I’ll count down three.” Without giving them time to think, he immediately started counting down.“Three!”“Two!”Before he could get to “one”, someone broke down and shouted a name. He nodded expressionlessly. Then, he turned to get into the car.These bodyguards were just poor people that had been hired by the wrong people, so there was no need for him to go after them. They were going to be out of jobs soon, anyway. The moment

Erin had stepped out of the car the moment Zack showed up. When she saw Darius walk toward the car, she hurriedly said, “Mr. Reid, I think I’m needed at the company.”Darius nodded. “That’s fine. I can drive, and I’m definitely safe on my own.” He got into the driver’s seat and stretched an arm out, resting it against the window. He closed his eyes and let out a deep breath before driving off.Erin remained rooted to the spot, only moving when he was out of her sight. When she turned around, she was greeted by the sight of a face, which frightened her. She backed away, slapping a hand over her mouth to ensure she wouldn’t make a sound.Zack touched his face, feeling a little exasperated. He walked toward her, saying, “I know you’re madly in love with Mr. Reid, and my face can’t compare to his, but it’s not bad enough to terrorize you like that, is it?”Erin had already calmed down. She rolled her eyes at him and said, “I have plenty of work to do. Also, I’m not in love with Mr. Reid; I jus

Darius took the key. “Thank you.” After that, he turned to head to his apartment. He stopped after a couple of steps and turned to look at Ayla. “This receptionist is great.”Ayla’s expression changed, and she immediately nodded. “I understand, Mr. Reid.”As Darius walked out of the lobby, he vaguely heard Ayla say, “You’re doing an excellent job, so you can choose between getting a promotion or a raise. You should know that this is a special situation—if you choose to be promoted, so be it, but I’ll only give you a raise once you’ve gained enough experience to match up to your position. However, I’ll still give you all the power that comes with your position.”The receptionist wanted to jump with joy at Ayla’s words.On the other hand, a small smile formed on Darius’ lips, but this didn’t stop him from heading to his destination. Just as he thought he would soon be at his apartment, he heard someone call his name.The voice was a little familiar, but it hadn’t left a deep enough imp
