บททั้งหมดของ The Consortium's Heir : บทที่ 871 - บทที่ 880

Darius crossed one leg over the other.Throughout that, Kristoff didn't detect any hint of anger or displeasure on the former's face. A relieved sigh left his lips while his features relaxed. "We're interning at Dream Investment Group, but luckily for you, it won't be at their company headquarters—instead, we'll intern in their subsidiary company. Indeed, you and one of their employees have had several quarrels, so you might dislike mingling with the other Dream Investment Group employees. However, I hope you recognize a crucial point; although the head and branch offices belong to the same company, they're significantly different."Darius raised a brow but couldn't help smiling at how seriously and cautiously Kristoff explained things. He had met many that knew about Reid Consortium, making him assume the Reid family was famous. Yet, Kristoff's ignorance made it seem further from the truth. Amused, Darius nodded. "Well, may I know the name of the subsidiary company I'm interning in?

Pitching the ball accurately, swiftly, and powerfully was something that he had to master. He had to practice endlessly for this, and he'd always been proud of himself. It was also something he applied in daily life, particularly when getting into fights with others. It had never failed him over the years—this was a first, and it was a horrible defeat. The baseball team captain gulped and widened his eyes in disbelief. "How's this possible? How could you catch my punch?"Darius rolled his eyes. "I've played nice with you because you've contributed much to the university's reputation." His tone was calm, which caught the baseball team captain off-guard—he thought Darius was going to mock him, but Darius had complimented him instead. However, he regretted this thought almost as soon as it had formed in his mind, especially when he felt Darius' grip on his fist tighten.He let out a cry of pain; it was loud enough for everyone present to hear him. Terror washed over everyone, especially

The baseball team captain glared daggers at Darius and snarled, "Cut the crap. Since you think you're so great, why don't you show us what you're made of?"Darius raised an eyebrow and chuckled. "I have to say; you're dumber than I thought."The baseball team captain's eyes widened. His breathing sped up as he roared, "What the hell did you just say? I dare you to repeat that!""I'm not gonna repeat myself. You've made yourself clear—you wanna fight me, right? I've thought about it and decided there's no reason for me to turn you down," said Darius.The baseball team captain gnashed his teeth, then nodded. "Fine, then. If this is how you want things to be, I don't need to go easy on you just because you've been the talk of the university recently." He held his head high and snarled, "I hope you don't regret this!" With that, he darted toward Darius like an arrow being released from a bow.Darius shook his head and sighed. Was this guy an idiot? Had he forgotten about his failed attemp

"Man, I can't believe he pulled something like this! Doesn't he feel bad about it, especially when I've treated him so well?" the baseball team captain snarled.The baseball player parted and pursed his lips, not knowing what to say. He could tell his captain was infuriated, but anger obviously wasn't going to get them anywhere. However, he didn't dare interrupt his captain. He merely nodded and mumbled, "I'll get right on it, captain." Then, he ran away.Darius and his roommates had only managed to make their way to the university's entrance when the baseball player who'd run off to search for the culprit ran past them. He was dragging two guys behind him. Darius tucked his hands into his pockets and stopped to watch them, blinking a few times before understanding what had happened. However, he didn't do anything else. Though he'd only stopped for a matter of seconds, his three roommates noticed this. Rudd looked at him worriedly and said, "You can go check on them if you're really

"Besides, Dragon Estate isn't exactly close to the university or where I'm about to intern," Darius said.Edward protested, "Based on what I've heard, this new place you've bought at Solaris Estate isn't occupied by anyone other than yourself at the moment, and you've already been ambushed there. That means the neighborhood isn't safe—for all you know, it could've been built by the people who are out to get you." He was most definitely against Darius living there.Bridget sucked in a breath, then said, "Sir, I genuinely think it's a bad idea for you to continue staying at Solaris Estate. No matter how you look at it, Dragon Estate is more suitable."Darius swept a gaze over them and said calmly, "The Evans family's watchdog developed Solaris Estate.""The Evans family?" Bridget felt like her brain had short-circuited and looked at him in confusion. "Aren't they one of the most prominent families in Ashweir City? Have they gotten into some sort of conflict with you? They're nothing com
