The Consortium's Heir novel Chapter 204

Chapter 204

All the woman could do was get up and bow deeply at Darius. "I'm deeply sorry. This was my fault. I'm willing to pay any price to alleviate your anger and not get punished by you."

The manager had already gotten apprehended by that point.

Meanwhile, the man from control room stood aside and watched the events unfold without reacting.

Curiosity flickered in Darius' eyes as he watched the two people. It was his first time encountering such a situation.

The woman could tell he was curious and quickly explained, ‘These two have worked at our airport for many years, and they're very knowledgeable about the airport's ins and outs."

"Don't trust that woman, Darius!" the manager yelled without thinking twice. He was furious after being held down for some time.

That interrupted the turning cogs in Darius's brain, causing him to frown and focus on the pallid manager.

Having caught Darius' attention, the manager announced, "I may not know who you are, but I'm sure you're the person that woman once mentioned. She previously told me about a family that reunited with their male heir.

Her exact words were, ‘They likely dug him up from the trash cans of society. I bet he can't handle those responsibilities from the different environment he grew up in.”

Something dark and sinister tainted the woman's eyes just then.

There was no change in Darius’ expression, but he examined the reactions of everyone at the scene in detail, including the control room personnel's amused looks. He eventually saw the woman glancing at one of the airport's corners, causing security to come over and take the manager away.

Darius looked at the two tall, burly security guards before raising a hand to stop their actions.

"Please hang on. I'd like to hear what the manager has to say next."

The woman's face darkened as she bobbed her head. “Why would you listen to him? There’s no telling if we can trust his words.”

"You're the most talkative woman to ever speak to me," Darius said." Perhaps you're unaware, but that is a trait I hate the most."

It was like an invisible pair of hands were choking the woman right then. She could not utter even a squeak, her face increasingly warping with worry. Desperate, she shot an instructive look at the two security guards.

“Edward, Bridget," said Darius while he held his throbbing temple. “Remove those two security guards from my sight. Now."

His bodyguards had already taken action once they heard him speak.

Thus, before the woman’s security guards could say anything or react to the situation, Edward and Bridget pinned them to the ground.

The two guards’ arms got forcefully pressed against their backs. It hurt so much that they could not help crying out.

Those pained groans instantly put Darius in a bad mood. He frowned while waving his hand, to which Edward complied by taking the two security guards away.

In the meantime, darkness shrouded the woman's features as she never expected Darius to put her in such a humiliating position.

Darius then looked at the manager, stating, "I dislike you, but I feel what you're saying is the truth. You may continue talking if you're able to recall anything more.”

The manager fell into a dumbfounded stupor. It took some time before he said,
