The Consortium's Heir のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 491 - チャプター 500

Suddenly, the look in her eyes turned mysterious, and she whispered, “I can tell you everything, but are you sure you want to hear it? You’ll regret it once you hear what I have to say.”Darius gave her a bored look. “That’s not something you need to concern yourself with. Just tell me everything you know.”“You’re a brave one.” Patricia smiled, looking gleeful. “Someone did indeed approach me. They told me as long as I did as they said, I’d receive an astronomical sum of money in return. It’d be more than enough for my son, grandchildren, and several generations of my offspring to live comfortably. In fact, they’d probably live in splendor. It was an offer I couldn’t resist, so I did as told. As expected, I was paid handsomely. The thing they wanted me to do was simple enough—to find a reporter named Daisy and ensure you two would come across each other.”An odd look crept onto her face. “At first, I thought they were doing you a favor. Which man wouldn’t be happy to meet a beautiful

Richard relaxed. He took a deep breath, and the things he said surprised Darius. “I know a few things about the person in the black robe, and I think you’d be interested to know more about this compared to what Patricia told you.”Darius raised an eyebrow and subconsciously straightened up. Tonight was a night of surprises. The first surprise was Richard—Darius didn’t know how old he was, but he’d been forced to act like a fool just to survive. The second surprise was that Richard had managed to educate himself under such difficult circumstances and had even gotten information on the black-robed person. He didn’t bother concealing his surprise, which made Richard relax even more. He felt slightly more confident about meeting his objective because Darius was obviously interested in what he had to say. He smiled and said, “Patricia knew about this, but I don’t know what kept her from revealing this information. Also, before we delve deeper, you should know there’s something you’ve mis

“Yes, Sir! I’m ready to fulfill your every order!” Donald replied.Darius’ lips twitched but soon returned to normal as he instructed, “I need you to subdue Bart Brezinski and ensure he’s unable to attack. Then, get him in this car so that we can leave.”Donald’s gaze tremored with vigor at Darius. He balled his fists, feeling excited and determined to complete the task as it was the first one Darius had assigned him. Raising his voice, he enthusiastically said, “Rest assured, Mr. Reid! I’ll get it done to the best of my abilities!”Darius raised his hand, waving in dismissal while responding, “That would be ideal. First things first, get a thick enough rope to keep Bart under control. You’ll walk behind us once you get the rope.”He then leaned into the sofa and turned to look at Richard, adding, “You must be nervous about what’s to come from the way your eyelids keep twitching. It’s a sign of unease.” “You’re right,” said a nodding Richard, his lips thinning into a line. “I’m nervo

“I believe we can call this a medical miracle,” Darius said while shrugging and raising both palms in the air. He then turned to look beside him.That was where Bart sat. His eyes were closed the entire time, but he sighed just then, stiffly turning to look at Darius and speaking like a robot. “How bright of you. I’ve been trying hard to disguise my conscious state. Alas, you still caught me.” He no longer concealed his awakened state at that point. After saying that, he made the hatred in his eyes more obvious toward Darius and Donald.“How funny of you to say that.” Darius chuckled while shaking his head. Subsequently, he locked eyes with Bart, casting a focused look as he announced, “Even if you’ve immersed yourself in the role and acted to the best of your abilities, I can only say one thing—your little act never fooled me once. Your rage practically oozed from your every pore. It was pretty hard to miss.”He cocked a brow, then flared his nostrils into a more obvious sneer than

Donald did not give it any thought before leaning forward to assume a brace position. At the same time, he looked behind him and yelled, “Mr. Reid, please get out of the car now! It’s dangerous in here!”He then bent forward with his legs crouching as he dodged Bart’s attack range. The entire thing seemed comedic to Darius, who guffawed approvingly. “Pfft! Hahaha! D-Donald, I didn’t think you’d react this quickly—”“Enough! Stop laughing! You’re annoying me, and I swear to attack you next if you continue laughing!” Bart bellowed at the top of his lungs. Following that, he reached out and swiped his fingers as if they had deadly claws at Darius. However, that all happened in slow motion in Darius’ eyes, giving him a full view of Bart’s every move. His lips twitched while he commented, “Your fighting skills aren’t that great. Literally, your attack is so messy and complicated—it’s like you’ve copied the moves of various other fighters.”Bart’s voice grew louder at that moment. “That’s
