The Consortium's Heir novel Chapter 134

Chapter 134 [Anthony‘s café] The interior of the café was quiet and serene. It was a bit empty, as not many people loved to have their dates in a café, but one could still see a significant amount of people scattered across different tables laughing and discussing in low voices at a single glance.

Darius was alone in his table, and a cup of black coffee accompanied him on the table. As Darius was incredibly attractive, both males and females kept stealing glances at him, the men jealous and envious, while the females smitten. Some bold ladies even took pictures of him secretly. Darius of course noticed the stares he was getting, but he didn‘t bother about it. Compared to the situation that occurred with the freshmen female students when he arrived in his Bugatti earlier, the current situation wasn‘t worth mentioning at all. He took another sip from his cup of black coffee and let out a sigh. He glanced at the classy wristwatch strapped on his wrist and a frown crept unto his face. He had been waiting patiently at the café for the last thirty minutes, yet there was no sign of Alice. He had less than twenty minutes left before his first class of the session began, and as a model student who had to survive on his scholarship to remain in the university, he didn‘t want to miss the class.

Darius felt angry that Alice had not showed up after thirty minutes. She was the one who called him out of the blue, yet she was nowhere to be found even after waiting so long.

He fished out his phone from his pocket and dialed her number once more, but just like the ten previous times he dialed her number, it was unreachable.

Unable to keep waiting anymore, Darius paid for his cup of coffee, left a generous tip for the waiter, and exited the café.

He walked leisurely to his lecture hall, since it was not very far, and he still had fifteen minutes left. At the current pace he was walking at, he would surely be able to get to his lecture hall on time.

As he walked, an ominous feeling kept hovering over his head about Alice‘s inability to show up, but he couldn‘t place his fingers on what it was. Although he hadn‘t known Alice for long, from the few times he interacted with her, he knew she would never stand him up without informing him beforehand.

Moreover, she was the one who invited him out this time. It made absolutely no sense for her to not show up at this time. This detail made her shunning the coffee date up even stranger.

However, Darius wasn‘t a god, so there was no way he could tell what was wrong. Still, he didn‘t give up. He brought out his phone and opened the GPS tracker app he recently installed on his phone.

The GPS tracker app was a new app that a subsidiary company of Reid consortium recently produced. It was an app that could track anybody so as long as the phone was with them.

Of course, other competitor apps could easily do this, but this app was very different, as it could pinpoint the exact location of the phone, while other apps would only give you a rough

estimate of the location.

Darius only had the app because he needed to test it at the time it was produced. He had no idea that the app would be so useful now. He silently thanked the department that designed the app as he input Alice‘s phone number into the required box in the app. As expected, it only took twenty seconds for the app to locate where Alice. The moment Darius saw the location, his eyes widened in surprise.

Yale city!

The location of Alice‘s phone read Yale city!

Darius narrowed his eyes that instant. Yale city was more than an hour distance from Kingston University, so why was Alice who offered to treat him to coffee at Anthony‘s café suddenly going to Yale city. What‘s more was that according to the app, the phone‘s location was constantly changing, which meant that she was going even farther than Yale city.

All of a sudden, the location that was reading clearly on Darius‘ phone went blank out of the blue. Darius was surprised at the sudden blank screen, but chalked it up to a technical issue from the app. He then restarted the app and tried to locate Alice again, but this time he was unsuccessful in his attempts.
