The Consortium's Heir novel Chapter 63

Chapter 63

A frown crept onto Darius’ face the moment he heard her scream on the other end of the phone. He didn’t need to be told that Helen was in danger. The last time they met was at the charity gala, and apart from the light conversation he had with her before the auction, he hadn’t spoken with her again.

“Where are you now?” Darius asked calmly. He knew that getting her location was of paramount importance. Anything else could take back seat in the face of her location. “I’m at the VIP section, room 38 of HKN Diamond Hotel.” Helen replied in a shaky voice.” Please come fast. I’m in-”

Before Helen could complete her sentence, the phone call disconnected. Darius gripped his phone tightly before releasing his grip. He let out a short breath before speeding out of the parking lot. i.

As he drove at top speed, he connected his phone to the Bluetooth system of his car and made a phone call. The call rang once before the person picked up. “Where is HKN Diamond Hotel?” Darius asked curtly, going straight to the point. He knew that the longer he spoke, the more Helen was exposed to danger, and therefore this was no time for curtsies.

“Give me a second, Mr. Reid.” Erin, the person on the other end of the phone answered briefly.

It was a bit surprising that Darius thought to call Erin and not Bruce, but looking at it from another perspective it was indeed the right choice. Bruce had been filling in for Erin and was performing the jobs a personal assistant was supposed to do. Now that Darius had gotten a personal assistant, it was only natural that such matters fell to her.

“HKN Diamond Hotel is a s star hotel in Blueberry district and close to Lockwood university. It is owned by the Erihal Group and is worth over $5 billion.” Erin answered just 10 seconds later. She was incredibly efficient with her job.

“Is there a problem Mr. Reid?” Erin asked hesitantly.

“Contact the Manager of the Hotel and tell him to dispatch security personnel to VIP section, room 38 of the hotel now.” Darius ordered before disconnecting the call.

He checked the distance from his current location to the hotel in his car inbuilt GPS system and frowned when he saw that he was over an hour away from the said hotel. Nevertheless he stepped on the accelerator and increased his top speed.

He had already done what he could for now by telling Erin to inform the Manager of the situation at hand. He could only hope that the security personnel would be able to keep the danger at bay until he arrived.

Helen held her hands to her mouth inside the toilet of the VIP room. Her heart pounded rapidly as she hid inside the toilet. She could hear the cold and merciless laughter of Luke Erihal and his friends who brought them here.

Helen hadn’t wanted to come, but her roommate had coerced her to accompany her. Kris, Luke’s best friend had asked Helen’s roommate Dee out on a date. Ecstatic, Dee had invited her

to accompany her to the hotel with Kris and Luke,
