The Consortium’s Heir by Benjamin_Jnr

Chapter 115

The moment they heard the robotic voice, all of them turned to look at Darius in shock. They could not

believe their eyes at all.

The young man was actually able to pay $270,000 without batting an eyelid. This meant that he surely

had more than that amount with him!

Vera, Director Yul and the onlookers in the hospital stared at Darius with a new light. Anyone who was

able to bring out such amount of money on a whim was certainly someone impressive.

Vera’s eyes shone with admiration as she looked at Darius. That moment, Darius was the most

attractive person she had ever seen in her life, and his position in her heart soared drastically.

Being the wise person she was, Director Yul immediately understood what Darius’ action meant, so her

attitude took a complete 180 degree turn.

“Pardon my rude behavior earlier. I was totally at fault.” Director Yul said meekly and shamelessly

Darius didn’t say anything to her and merely arched his eyebrows. Director Yul saw through his

intentions and swiftly moved to obey them.

“Miss Vera and Miss Emily, I am sorry for my rude behavior earlier. I hope that you will find it in yourself

to forgive me.” Director Yul apologized sincerely. Moreover, there was no hint of hesitation in her

actions

Both Vera and Emily were rendered speechless at the sight before them. Although Darius had proved

her wrong by paying the medical bills, it was still in question whether Director Yul would actually

apologize to them.

After all, no one knew how much Director Yul valued her dignity more than Emily. Yet the fact remained

that she swallowed her pride and dignity to apologize to them despite the obviously glaring status

between them; and so decisively too showed how highly she rated Darius.

When Darius saw how shameless she was behaving, he let out a wry smile. Indeed, if she didn’t know

how

have such a shameless attitude, there was no way she would be able to become the Director of the

best hospital in the district.

“Are you sick in anyway?” Director Yul asked Darius straightforwardly after apologizing to Vera and

Emily

“I am not.” Darius replied flatly.

“Why are you here then?” Director Yul asked relentlessly.

Darius sighed at her relentless attitude. Just as he was about to respond to her, a nurse approached

him and spoke audibly.

“Mr. Reid, the patient is awake.”

Darius nodded and started walking decisively towards the old man’s room. Director Yul stood still and

watched as Darius left hurriedly. She wasn’t bothered about his hasty retreat. He would still visit the

hospital frequently after all. There was no way that they wouldn’t meet in the future.

She then turned to Vera and spoke sweetly.

“Now that your medical bills have been taken care of by the kind gentleman from earlier, you can be

rest assured that your mother will receive the utmost care from us at Serene Hospital.”

Vera could only nod lightly at Director Yul’s abrupt attitude change. However she was glad that it was

beneficial for her mother’s treatment.

Meanwhile, Darius walked swiftly towards the old man’s hospital room. When he got there, he only

knocked once, and without waiting for a response, he pushed the door open and entered the room.

The doctor who performed the surgery on the old man was present in the room when Darius entered.

He glanced over at Darius but hastily removed his gaze a second later and continued writing on his

note.

Darius didn’t notice anything strange about the doctor and therefore didn’t respond to the doctor’s

presence. He instead walked over to the old man on the bed. The old man looked extremely weak at

the moment, and it was as if he was mustering all his strength just to stay awake,

“Are you the one who hit me with your car?” the old man asked weakly.

Darius sat down on the chair beside the old man’s bed and grabbed his weak hands.

Yes I was. It was a grave mistake on my part; but don’t worry. This is the best hospital in the district

After a few days, you’ll be back to how you were before.* Darius answered cheerfully.

“It’s alright. I don’t blame you.” The old man said weakly.

Darius was about to speak again, but the doctor suddenly interrupted him.

“That’s enough. You can leave now. He is still injured and recuperating.” The doctor said firmly

Darius was a bit irritated at the doctor, as he had barely spoken with the old man, but he couldn’t refute

his words. The old man was indeed extremely weak now, and it would be detrimental to his recovery if

he kept speaking to him.

In the end, he obeyed the doctor’s instruction and waved the old man goodbye before exiting the

hospital room,

Seconds after Darius exited the room, the doctor kept staring at the door with a complicated gaze. He

then sighed helplessly before continuing to jot on his note,

After Darius exited the hospital room, he suppressed the frustration he was feeling at the moment and

went to the car wash. By the time he arrived, the blood stains in the vehicle had been completely

washed off by the staff there, and the Mercedes Benz looked as good as new.

Darius paid the staff at the car wash accordingly and tipped them generously. He then drove back to

the Reid mansion in a hurry.

When he arrived at the Reid mansion, he handed over the keys to the bodyguards there and walked

straight to the bathroom. After taking a long shower and changing into a new pair of casual wear, he

exited the room and headed to his grandfather’s study.

He had barely descended the staircase when he heard his name being called out.

“Young Master Reid.”

Seconds later, Bruce appeared at the edge of the stairway. He was dressed as immaculately as ever;

and there was a file in his hands.

“Please don’t bother yourself Young master Reid. Your grandfather stepped out for some important

business, and he won’t be back today.” Bruce announced courteously.

A slight frown edged itself on Darius’ face, before he asked back.

When will he be back?”

“He didn’t give me a specific date yel, but if I were to make an estimate, presume he would be back in

two weeks tune” Bruce answered politely

The frown on Darius lace became more prominent His grandfather had suddenly embarked on a

business deal suddenly, and furthermore, he would not be available for two weeks, yet he didn’t bother

to inform him.

He was confused at the sudden development, but there was nothing he could do. After expressing his

gratitude to Bruce for the information, he returned to his room.

He had barely sat down on the sofa in his room when his phone rang. He checked the caller ID and

saw that it was Erin. Surprised, he picked up his phone and answered the call.
