The Consortium's Heir novel Chapter 107

Chapter 107

The ride back to the Reid mansion was smooth and uneventful. Both Bruce and Darius remained silent for the entirety of the journey. The reason was because he had nothing to say to Darius, and moreover, he could see that Darius didn‘t want to be disturbed at all; therefore he chose to remain quiet.

Darius didn‘t notice Bruce stealing occasional glances at him. He was far too deep in his thoughts at the moment

The assailant that attacked him was not a citizen of S country, so did this mean that his enemy was a foreigner? And if the enemy was actually a foreigner, how then was he able to spread his roots in S country?

Furthermore, the motive behind the attack was still unknown by Darius. His grandfather had only warned him about his safety prior to the attack, but didn‘t mention anything about the motive behind their attack.

He found it hard to believe that anyone would go ahead and try to hurt him brazenly despite his identity as the heir and current head of the Reid consortium, but his assailant had done just that.

There were only two reasons that he could think of. Either they were ignorant of his identity as the head of the Reid consortium, or they believed that they were capable of withstanding the Reid consortium‘s retaliation in S country.

Darius didn‘t know which of the options the reason for their attack was, and this put him in a dilemma.

He sighed deeply. In the end they were all his speculations, so they couldn‘t be proven to be true at the moment. Therefore, he pushed the thoughts about the assailants to the back of his mind. There was no use thinking about it now, so instead, he shifted his thoughts to the fight with the assailant.

He could feel that his body was currently very different from how it used to be before. He couldn‘t tell what changes had occurred in his body, but he was sure that it was certainly for the better.

During the fight, even after sustaining injuries from the assailant, he could tell that it didn‘t hamper his fighting abilities at all. This was because his injuries began healing themselves on their own!

Darius had no idea that this was because of the golden liquid his grandfather gave him. The golden liquid was very mysterious and extraordinary, but it was indeed very powerful.

Not only did it heal all of Darius‘ injuries when he was severely injured, it strengthened his body greatly.

Yet, it seemed that that wasn‘t all it could do. It had managed to imbue Darius with a self healing trait! 1

This meant that Darius would be able to heal from any injury no matter how severe it was. Naturally, this also included toxins, poisons, and dangerous gases. It basically made Darius‘ body immune to such impurities.

Darius was too focused on the fight with his assailant to notice that the injuries that were inflicted on him were actually healing themselves on their own, otherwise he would have screamed from shock.

He didn‘t realize he was injury–free until the end of the battle, when he had defeated the attacker. He vividly remembered the assailant‘s powerful attack breaking his rib, so it seemed strange at the time, but later, when he checked his rib, he found it to be in perfect condition.

In the end, he chalked up the self healing trait to the strange feeling he had in his body. Since both of them occurred at the same time, he figured out that they were of the same cause.

After more than two hours of driving, the Bentley finally arrived at the regal and imperial Reid mansion.

Darius and Bruce both alighted from the Bentley and walked towards the luxurious Reid mansion

“Young master Reid; your grandfather is waiting for you in his study room.” Bruce said politely.

Darius nodded his head and started walking towards the familiar study room. When he got there, he knocked twice on the door, and then opened the door without waiting for his grandfather‘s response.

When he entered the room, he saw that there was already another person in the room. It was a man who looked to be in his late thirties. He looked at the person briefly but had no recollection of the person in the study room. However, for him to meet with his grandfather personally, he knew he had to be someone very influential
