The Consortium's Heir

Chapter 237

The car was still parked in its spot.

As Pearl deliberated over what to do, something seemed to happen in the courtyard.

Darius opened his eyes, and what he saw rendered him speechless.

Four men appeared before him—three of them were burly and tattooed, and the remaining one’s eyes kept darting around.

Who knew what was going on in his mind? Darius narrowed his eyes.

He didn’t really want to have anything to do with them, but there didn’t seem to be any reason for him to turn them down.He rolled his shoulders, then sighed and looked at them.

"Bring on whatever questions you have."

To his surprise, the official in the lead merely looked up at the sky before pulling out an order for arrest.This wasn’t something Darius expected, so he narrowed his eyes even more.

The women paled, unable to utter a word.

Of course, this didn’t bother him.He merely looked at the officials and nodded seriously.

"You guys don’t have to look so wary.I won’t do anything to you; And I trust that you guys are good employees."

His tone didn’t go down well with the officials.He walked over to them and was pushed into the car.

The official in the lead said with a frown, "Don’t be so obnoxious, Darius.I spoke to my colleagues at the airport, and they didn’t arrest you because they had yet to get any evidence.Now, however, we already have what we need.You’re the only suspect that fits the bill."

"Cut the crap.Since you’re already here, let’s go somewhere where we can talk! Don’t let your plane tickets go to waste."

When they reached their destination, he stretched his neck and walked toward the building with his hands in his pockets.

The officials frowned when they saw him like this.

One of them spat out, "Darius, you think too highly of yourself!"

Darius looked at him with a trace of mockery.

"Who do you think you are? How dare you speak to me!"

The official's eyes widened.He jumped and pointed a finger at his badge.

Darius didn’t even bother to respond.

After walking into the conference room, Darius slammed the door shut, then turned around and leaned against the table with his arms crossed.

There was no time to waste, and he didn’t give the officials any chance to speak.

"Since you guys came here with an order for arrest, you must already have enough evidence.But based on what I’ve seen so far, I don’t think that’s the case.Otherwise, you wouldn’t be playing nice."

The officials didn’t expect Darius to already see through them.He narrowed his eyes and looked at Darius warily, but at the same time, he looked excited.

Darius rubbed his arms with a frown, then said with disgust, "Stop looking at me like that, or I’ll gouge your eyes out!"

After that, he chuckled.

"Actually, no.Go ahead and give it a try."

The three burly men slammed their hands on the table and shot to their feet, their muscles making their uniforms burst at the seams. N ovel book They glared at him.

Darius rubbed his temples, thinking they did not need to give him such death glares.It wouldn’t have any effect on him, anyway.He dusted off his hands, then shook his head at the official in the lead and clicked his tongue.

Before the official could say anything, the person standing behind him got mad.

He raised a fist and swung it at Darius, saying, "My name’s Miguel."

Darius didn’t expect him to introduce himself, but he didn’t have time to ponder this as Miguel’s fist came hurtling his way.He frowned and swiftly dodged the blow.

Before anyone realized what was going on, he had already shifted to stand behind the official and grip his neck tightly.

The official paled instantly.

He knew Darius was powerful, but this was out of his expectations.

He’d moved at the speed of light! The official’s breathing sped up because he knew that no one would be able to stop Darius if he really wanted to kill him.

He couldn’t help but tremble, but he didn’t say anything, merely deliberating his next move.

Darius thought the official would interrogate him after bringing him here, but not a single question was asked.

All the official had done was ponder.

He stretched and said, "I’m going to leave if you guys continue like this.

Take all the time you need to think things through and remember to let me know when you’re done." This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

Then, he turned to leave.

The three burly men appeared before him, and he sighed.

"You three don’t look like the brightest.If I were you, I’d sit this out and wait for someone to predict the outcome.I may not be able to see my own fate, but I can see yours."

Standing next to them, Miguel’s eyes widened.

"R- really? Can you tell me what’s going to happen, then? You seem to predict the future quite accurately." Darius yawned and smirked.

"If you keep harassing me, I guarantee I'll make the first move."
