Chapter 37 Two days had passed since Darius visited the Dragon Estate in search of a new apartment. Elle had kept to her words so it took only one day for the maintenance in the apartment to be completed.
When Darius moved in to the apartment, it was completely different from how it was during his last visit. Everything had been repainted and redesigned to suit his taste, showing that the members of the maintenance team were no amateurs. As a matter of fact, it would be more accurate to say that they were the best of the best.
Darius‘ exit from the dormitory did raise suspicion among the other members of the male dormitory, as his exit was too sudden for them to process.
There was several rumors as to why Darius, a well known church rat in the dormitory suddenly moved out from the dormitory. Some people said that he had gotten a new job which paid very well, which was why he was able to afford leaving the dormitory.
When they thought about it that way, they reasoned that his decision was perfectly logical. If he had indeed gotten a good source of income, it was understandable that he moved out from the dormitory. They remembered that he had also gotten some very decent clothes recently. In that case it was surely the money he got from the said job that he used to purchase the clothes.
There were also several speculations about his departure, but alas they were just rumors as Darius kept mute about the reason for leaving the dormitory.
[Dragon Estate: Darius apartment]
Darius came out of the shower after taking his bath with a huge smile on his face. He was happy today for two reasons.
The first reason was that Bruce had called him earlier this morning to inform him that he would be coming over to his apartment to deliver his two cars. Darius was obviously happy when he heard the news. He was already fed up with using the public transport vehicles. Not only were they time consuming but they were also slower than private owned vehicles. He needed his own cars. It would save him a lot of trouble whenever he needed to go somewhere.
The second reason he was happy was because today was Saturday, a weekend, therefore he didn‘t have any classes to attend to today. After being incredibly busy the past few days, he decided that he needed a well deserved rest. He would just stay at his new home and relax.
Just as he finished putting on some casual clothes, his phone which he kept on the bedside
table rang
He walked over to the bedside table and picked up his phone. When he saw that the caller was Bruce he answered the phone call before placing the phone against his ear.
“Your cars are ready now Young Master Reid.” Bruce said the moment Darius answered the phone call.
“Alright I‘ll be there in a minute.” Darius replied before disconnecting the call. As he left his apartment he was incredibly excited. After a whole week of waiting he was finally going to receive his cars. He walked down the hallways and into the gold plated elevator excitedly. Once he got the lobby he spared a fleeting glance at the counter.
This time around it was a young male who was the receptionist. Maureen had been fired and another person was put in her place. Darius sighed. Although he was annoyed by Maureen‘s rude behavior, her dismissal was necessary. As a front desk agent, she should have been more polite to him. She had probably treated other guests that way. He only hoped that she had learnt her lesson and would do better at her new place of work.
