The Consortium's Heir novel Chapter 184

Chapter 184

Darius nodded. This was the best option he had right now.

When the official saw that he didn't mind, he finally felt at ease. He now knew how wealthy Darius really was, and it wasn't something that he could even begin to imagine. However, because of his job, he had no choice but to treat Darius like this, despite his reluctance.

Under such circumstances, it would be hard to prevent Darius’ impression of him from turning sour and, in turn, taking action to vent his frustrations. The official couldn't think of any way to make this situation better.

Soon, however, something worse occurred to him. Judging from Darius’ attitude, it would piss him off even more, and it wasn't something the official wanted to see. He started feeling anxious again, but there were no other alternatives. If he were to keep this from Darius, it would probably only make him angrier. He kept shifting around, and both Darius and Ward noticed this.

Ward looked apologetic again. “I'm sorry about this mess. There's something that's troubling you, isn't there?"

The official's eyes widened. "God, Professor Plinsky, you got me. According to our guidelines, what you've done is a serious matter with serious consequences. But I can't help sympathizing with you after listening to your side of the story, which means I can't bring myself to handle this objectively. It's not right for me to feel like this."

Ward shook his head. "No, you just need to do what you're supposed to. I, too, have to bear the consequences of what I've done." Then, he turned to Darius and sighed. "I'm sure you know that I've made a grievous mistake here. Now, I'm no longer a teacher and will never be in the future. I believe you understand this is because of what I've done."

He turned to the official and said, "Darius Reid is the most outstanding student I've ever had, and you can trust him as I do. He won't seek revenge or make you pay the price for doing your job.”

The official looked at Darius, who took a deep breath and nodded. "That's right. I won't blame you for this and disrupt your job.”

The two officials shared a look and saw the anger in each other’s eyes. They turned to Darius, their gazes turning hostile. "We thought you would’ve known what the right choice was, but it seems that we were wrong. That's why we're going to teach you exactly the right choice to make under these circumstances, and we're going to show you what you should and shouldn't do."

When Darius saw them take their shirts off and walk over to him, cracking their knuckles and smiling menacingly, he knew what they would do. A hesitant expression crept onto his face, but after some thought, he figured there was nothing to worry about with his wealth.

Therefore, he got to his feet and dodged one of the official's attacks with a quick sidestep. Then, he took the opportunity to land a kick on his back, which sent him sprawling onto the floor. A crisp sound rang out. Darius knew his bones were broken and looked at the guy mockingly.

"You're pretty bad at this. I'd be worried if all you officials were like this.” Then, he turned to look at the other official. He was in an offensive stance but hadn't made his move because of his horror.

Darius said, "You have two options-either you take me to where I'm supposed to be, or you can end up sprawled on the ground like your colleague.”
