The Consortium's Heir novel Chapter 185

Chapter 185

The official couldn't help but tremble. He’d been watching Darius closely, but he still didn't manage to catch what exactly he'd done. Now, all he could see was Darius holding two fingers up and his colleague sprawled on the floor. He knew that he didn't have a choice.

His hands trembled as he pulled out a pair of handcuffs, which made them jingle. He reached out to put them on Darius but couldn't even bring himself to look at him. He held the handcuffs out for a while, but Darius didn’t show any sign of moving. His hands were still in his pockets, and he looked at the official with displeasure.

The official knew this, and his mind started to race. He had to think of a way to resolve this as soon as possible without offending anyone.

Otherwise, he would probably end up worse off than his colleague. This wasn't a consequence he could bear.

So, he tucked the handcuffs away and looked at Darius, deciding to appease him. “Darius Reid, you're very smart, and you should know what the right choice is. I'm glad to see that you do, which is why I won't handcuff you.”

Darius knew he was trying to appease his anger, but it didn't change anything. He remained poker-faced as he said coldly, “I already told you that you only have two options."

The official knew what Darius’ decision was, and he now had a better understanding of his personality. He held out a hand to gesture at the door. “Come with me, please."

Darius couldn't help shaking his head at the official's stupidity when he saw him bowing and looking sycophantic. He walked out of the room, not wanting to spare him another glance. The official who'd escorted him here was waiting by the door, and he'd heard everything that'd happened in the room. He was shocked by the other two officials’ attitudes.

When the door swung open, he met Darius' eyes. On the other hand, the official escorting Darius stood straight and said loudly,

"Donny Garcia, you're the one who brought him here, so you should find a room to lock him up. The federal court will definitely come up with a just decision.”

Only then did Darius find out the name of this official. Donny looked at him in confusion. He didn’t know why things had turned out differently.
