Semua Bab The Consortium's Heir : Bab 521 - Bab 530

Then, he felt a burning energy pour out of Darius’ palm. The energy smothered him as it washed over him, making him come to an abrupt stop. His eyes bulged in terror—he’d never experienced something like this before. The same thing happened to the two other men. The sloppy-looking man paled, knowing he was destined to lose. Still, he refused to give in. He didn’t want to believe there was such a powerful person on this earth!The stubborn look in his eyes morphed into despair as he scrutinized Darius. He could already feel his strength leaving him just by looking at Darius, and he shut his eyes. He regretted talking shit earlier; perhaps he would’ve met a better end without it. After a few seconds, he opened his eyes and looked at Darius pleadingly.“Mr. Reid, I know I’ve made a huge mistake.” Before he could continue, he received a punch to the gut. In that instant, he felt like his organs had been rearranged, and he crashed to the floor. He was sure his eyes were open, but all he s

Darius opened his eyes and raised an eyebrow when he heard this. If his memory served him right, this voice didn’t belong to any of the people he’d seen since coming here. His curiosity was piqued, so he got out of bed. Then, he grabbed the jacket he’d placed beside his bed and placed it over his shoulders before walking to the window. He pushed it open, leaned out, and looked down. When he saw the face of the person who’d spoken, he raised an eyebrow. It was a face he remembered—this man hadn’t moved away from his corner last night. Even as the people around him lost their lives, he’d watched things unfold coldly. It made him stand out like a sore thumb among the anxious people. On the first floor, Bridget pulled her phone out and called Darius. He exhaled, answered it, and said coldly, “Find a way to get him to join us, then end him. He can’t be allowed to stay alive.”Bridget raised an eyebrow. She didn’t know why Darius was giving her such a command, but as his bodyguard, her d

He moved his hands away from the computer and placed them on the desk.Bridget shook her head. “No, everything’s fine. I just wanted to let you know that the first guy to step forward earlier—his name’s Pierce Bronson—volunteered to do it for me. It seems like something he can handle, so I agreed.”She clasped her hands and looked at him, waiting for his response. She didn’t know whether he would allow this—before this, she had no doubt he’d agree. Now that she could see the look on his face, she started to worry she’d made the wrong decision.Darius sensed her nervousness and shook his head. “Don’t worry; you made the right choice. Is there anything else you wanted to say? I don’t think you’d show up here to report something so unimportant to me.”A trace of surprise flashed across her face. She didn’t expect Darius to place so much trust in her; she was starting to transition from merely executing orders to having the discretion to make decisions independently. It made her happy, bu

“Don’t worry, Mr. Reid. I’ll deal with them as quickly as possible.” Edward hurried toward the car. However, he’d only taken a few steps when someone grabbed him by the collar.Darius looked at him calmly and said, “All you need to do is keep your eyes shut.” Edward’s heart started to race—he knew what would happen. He couldn’t stop a smile from curving his lips, and he shut his eyes. In the next second, he felt the cold wind slap against his face. Though he was an enlightened martial artist, he couldn’t move as quickly as Darius could, and he didn’t have the ability to move in mid-air.He cracked his eyes open just a little to peek at their surroundings and saw they were moving so quickly that the lights beneath them looked like meteors. If not for the place, timing, and the fact he was with his boss, he’d probably be applauding and cheering.Darius sensed his excitement, and his lips twitched. His voice rang out clearly through the billowing wind as he said, “Edward, you’re an enli

Drake’s eyes became bloodshot. He knew he was no match for Edward, but he refused to lie here and accept defeat! His gaze turned menacing as he shouted hoarsely at his men, “Stop standing there like fucking idiots! Get him!” The veins in his neck bulged with the force he was exerting. After saying that, he suddenly seemed to lose whatever strength he had left and struggled to catch his breath.Darius raised an eyebrow and gave him a pitying look as if he was watching a pig waiting to get slaughtered. Drake had never felt this insulted before, and he couldn’t take it. At this moment, Darius turned away from him to face his men. They were moving toward him—they weren’t exactly fleet-footed, but it was still enough to prove their stance. He smirked and snorted, and they immediately stopped moving.Darius gave Drake a mocking smile. “It amuses me that you’ve placed your hope in these good-for-nothings.” Drake’s face darkened, and his eyes bulged with rage. He tried and failed to turn hi
