The Consortium's Heir novel Chapter 137

Chapter 137 Michael and Alice both had surprised looks on their faces. They were extremely shocked to see Darius walking past the door. Darius sudden entrance relieved and delighted Alice, who was about to agree to Michael’s demand.

She got up from her knees and threw herself into Darius’ arms. Her actions inevitably softened the icy expression he had on his face.

The moment Alice sank into his arms, all the fear she felt from the moment of her kidnap to this current moment melted away, and she cried loudly. She had never felt so secured before in her life, and different turbulent emotions rocked her. A dark expression appeared on Michael’s face as he watched Alice throw herself at Darius. He was incredibly furious at the moment.

“How did you find us?!” Michael yelled angrily. He had spent a lot of money to build this cabin in the middle of the forest, so that he wouldn’t be easily discovered by the police or private detectives. However, it had been less than 12 hours since his subordinates kidnapped Alice. How on earth did Darius find him so quickly?

Darius fixed his gaze on Michael after hearing his question, and the anger he felt from earlier returned tenfold.

He was extremely glad that he was able to arrive on time. After driving in his Bugatti at top speed, he was able to arrive at Ophen Hills in an hour instead of the stipulated three hours. After that, he spent over ten minutes searching relentlessly for the cabin in the forest. If it weren’t for the minute tracks the kidnappers left behind in their wake, he wouldn’t have found the cabin so quickly. “Why did you kidnap Alice?” Darius asked angrily. “That is none of your business.” Michael replied coldly.

“I don’t know how you found this place, but you won’t leave this place alive!” Michael said threateningly. “Come out!” Michael yelled, and almost immediately, the three heavily built men who kidnapped Alice appeared in the broken door and entered the room. The fourth kidnapper who was beaten severely by Michael was just treated recently and was still recovering.

Darius instantly tensed up when the kidnappers appeared. He could tell that Michael had spent a hefty sum of money hiring these kidnappers, as they were incredibly threatening, even for him. They certainly had substantial amount of kills.

“The three of you listen closely. I want him dead.” Michael ordered coldly. The three kidnappers nodded obediently at Michael’s words and started moving towards Darius, eliciting a frown from Darius,

“Stand back.” Darius ordered Alice in a steady tone. He then took off his jacket and covered Alice’s shoulders with it. This happened in the span of five seconds,

Alice felt warmer than ever when Darius casual but expensive jacket covered her shoulders,

and the sense of security she felt increased exponentially.

Every woman wanted their man to be able to offer them a sense of security, and this was true even in ancient times, and Alice was no different. This was why the feelings she felt for Darius intensified by tenfold. At this point, she would do whatever Darius instructed her to do without question.

Michael saw Darius’ actions and even became angrier than he currently was.

“Make sure you kill him!” Michael yelled cynically.

Darius tensed up and stretched every part of his body to the extreme, and the three kidnappers did the same. The moment of silence and inactivity between them was just them weighing up each other abilities, and once they got a rough estimate of each other’s strength, they would strike
