The Consortium’s Heir by Benjamin_Jnr

Chapter 37



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.
Darius nodded lightly to the male receptionist as a sign of greeting before making his way outside the lobby. However when he
stepped outside the lobby, he was rendered speechless by the sight he saw.
Several Rolls–Royce cars were parked neatly just outside the Dragon Lord‘s Imperial Residence. Darius counted the Rolls–
Royce cars parked outside and saw that they were six in number!
That wasn‘t all. In between the Rolls–Royce cars were his two sports cars, his Bugatti and his Lamborghini!
When Darius saw the impressive lineup of cars and his two cars he instantly knew that Bruce was the one behind the
extravagant display of wealth. The question was why Bruce thought it necessary to bring several luxurious cars just to deliver
two cars to his residence. As expected, when people saw the impressive lineup of cars they naturally started discussing about it.
“Who are they here for?”
“I don‘t know but it‘s got to be someone very important.”
“Aren‘t those cars from the famous Rolls–Royce Phantom Solid Gold series?! I just looked it up now on the internet!”
“What?! You‘re right!” “I heard that the starting price for those cars is 10 million dollars, and those are clearly customized so it will
definitely cost more!” “And they‘re not just one of them but six!”
“They also came with two very expensive sports cars too!”

“The owner must surely be some bigshot! There‘s no doubt about that!”
Darius who was right behind the duo discussing about the cars had a complicated expression‘ on his face. He looked around and
saw that several people were already beginning to gather around the cars now.
It should be noted that everyone who was a resident of Dragon Estate was someone high up in the societal class, so they had
seen their fair share of such display of wealth. However, the case
this time was very different.
The eight cars parked outside the entrance to the Dragon Lord‘s Imperial Residence were very expensive cars that not just
anyone could purchase. Not only were the cars expensive, they also gave off an imposing aura.
It was no surprise that they hung around to see who the cars came to pick.
When Darius noticed the crowd formning, he decided to turn away from it. He didn‘t want to be the focus of attention right now.
He decided to return to his house and call Bruce, asking him why he had made such a big deal about delivering his two cars.
However a loud voice echoed in the surroundings before Darius could even move a short distance from his current position.
“Young Master Reid! I have arrived with your cars!” Everyone immediately stopped talking and looked at the direction Darius
stood. Darius‘ eyebrows twitched when he heard his name. Bruce‘s yell had completely ruined his plan of staying lowkey and
avoiding attention. He sighed. Left with no choice, he turned back to where Bruce stood with Rolls–Royce and started walking
towards him.
