All Chapters of The Consortium's Heir : Chapter 531 - Chapter 540

Edward turned to look at Isabella with a smile, but all she could sense was his mockery. She snorted and shut her eyes, which immediately made Edward feel clear-headed. Now, he knew why Darius wanted him to ask the questions. He said, “Mr. Reid, she seems to be more powerful than Drake Moore, but you managed to defeat Drake with a snap of your fingers. In fact, he had no objection to you recording a video of him. We didn’t even break a sweat when dealing with him.”Isabella opened her eyes and looked at them suspiciously. Darius tucked his hands in his pockets and shrugged. “Maybe it’s because Drake knows his limits. He looked at Isabella, stepped back, and cocked his head. “Edward, why don’t you send the video to Miss Brightstone? Perhaps she’ll learn a thing or two from it.”Darius sounded relaxed, but Isabella paled—she now believed everything he said, though she still didn’t know why Drake had chosen to go down without a fight. Despite being on edge, she still couldn’t help being

She’d never once experienced her life force being affected by external factors, which flustered her. Isabella kept her eyes trained on Darius as she watched his every move. She refused to believe his attacks were flawless; there had to be a weak spot somewhere. However, when she felt like she was onto something, something else caught her attention—someone was coming at her from behind while she was facing Darius.She was sandwiched between them, and if she couldn’t get out of this, she’d die a horrible death. The pressure Darius was exerting on her would turn her into mush, much like she’d done to her victims in the past. She raised her arms, turning one palm to face Darius and the other to face the person behind her, then released her life force. In that instant, she felt her breathing return to normal and relaxed. She sneered and looked at Darius mockingly. “I thought you were a formidable opponent, but it looks like I was wrong. Is that all you’re capable of? You were running yo

Since his instinct told him something was up, it meant Isabella’s death wasn’t due to natural causes. Still, it was simple enough to see whether she was truly dead. Darius had a smile on his face as he walked to Sierra Stevens Soderbergh, whose breathing was almost undetectable. He raised an eyebrow—now, he knew why Isabella had been so weak earlier despite her being only slightly weaker than him. As an enlightened martial artist, it was unfathomable for her to have sustained such serious injuries from a single cry, but now it seemed she’d sacrificed herself to protect Sierra.Darius raised an eyebrow again. This conclusion seemed ludicrous, but it was the only one he could think of. Whatever the truth was, it wouldn’t change the result—Isabella was not a humane person with a conscience. She had to have her reasons for protecting Sierra; perhaps she could’ve gotten something out of it. Darius frowned. He wanted to know what her motivations were—an enlightened martial artist’s body

She pointed a trembling finger at Darius, but the arm soon fell back to its side, and the eye on the side of Edward’s body under her control widened in surprise. The corner of her lips twitched, but she couldn’t make a sound.Darius noticed this and raised an eyebrow. He raised his arms again and enveloped Edward in his life force. He’d originally intended to help Edward attack Isabella, but he couldn’t accurately pinpoint her with his eyes open. On the other hand, she could see his life force and easily avoid him, which meant he could injure Edward at any time. And so, that wasn’t the right way to handle this. However, he could boost Edward and help him defeat Isabella by enveloping Edward in his life force. There was a plus point to this method—if Isabella were to take the opportunity to absorb his life force, it would injure her instead of giving her a boost because it’d be extremely difficult for her to refine Darius’ life force.He didn’t yet know this, but his life force was g

Isabella looked at Darius with jealousy. He’d been born with a silver spoon in his mouth, and even though an accident caused him to grow up in poverty, it hadn’t taken his life or intelligence away. Instead, he’d grown into a handsome young man and made his way into the country’s most prestigious university, Kingston University, even managing to be at the top of his class. While working odd jobs to support himself, he didn’t encounter any hardened hooligans who could take away his good looks or brains, and he’d made it out on top.Isabella’s lips parted and sealed a few times. Eventually, all she said was, “You have no idea how jealous I am of you. If I were you…” Before she could continue, she saw his finger twitch, and she quickly held up a hand to stop him. “Alright, alright. I’ll cut the crap and tell you what you want to know. Firstly, you wanted to know when Drake and I met, but I think what you really want to know is what our relationship was. It’s as you expected—we were bot
