The Consortium’s Heir Chapter 242

Borisin followed Darius.He had his own thoughts about this but couldn’t put them into action.

On the other hand, when Edward heard Darius say his name, he flung Lyon aside without hesitation to go to him.

However, the moment he had his back to Lyon, Lyon suddenly pounced on him and wrapped his arms around Edward’s leg.

He started wailing, “I know I’ve made many mistakes, but I hope you can forgive me this time.”

Edward shook his leg.

Lyon was clinging to his leg so tightly that his blood flow was restricted.

He took a deep breath and forced out through gritted teeth, “Let me go, or I swear I’ll never forgive you!”

Lyon slowly released him.

Edward moved away and gave him a look before heading to Darius’ room.

He was greeted by a shocking scene, making his eyes widen—Borisin was gripping Darius’ hand tightly, and he was crying.It was the complete opposite of his usual cold, steely image.

Edward didn’t know whether he’d been hiding this from them from the start or whether this was a new development, but he knew this was wrong.

His shock only lasted for a few seconds.



After that, he ran over to Darius.

Darius didn’t expect Edward to show up at this moment.He let out a sigh of relief and was about to ask Edward to take Borisin away when Edward made quick work of him.

Borisin landed on the ground face- first.

Edward said calmly, “Mr.Reid, he’s taken care of.What should we do next?”

Darius sighed.

“Why don’t you see whether there’s anything abnormal with his body? When he brought me to the scene earlier today, I suddenly lost control of my emotions and lost a portion of my memories.I still haven’t recovered them.”

He pressed his temples.

“There’s a sort of drug that does that,”

Edward spoke without hesitation.

“I researched something like that when I was working at a lab before this.The project was dropped when we were almost done, though.All the researchers were sent home, so none of us had the core formula.”

Darius leaned against the window with his arms crossed, his fingers tapping lightly on his arms.

“Is there any way to prove that this drug is the same as the one you researched earlier?”

When he finished his words, he saw Edward pull out a needle and draw blood from Borisin’s arm.

Edward looked up at his words, traces of excitement in his eyes.



“Sir, Ican find out what’s in his blood by testing it right now.That way, I can see whether the components are identical to the drug I researched.If the main components are the same, we’ll pretty much be able to tell what’s flowing in his blood now.”

Darius wanted to ask more questions, but his gaze landed on Borisin’s arm.There was still some blood seeping out of the wound, but no one bothered to do anything.

Of course, neither would Darius.He sat down and pinched the bridge of his nose.

Too many things had happened today, and it was hard for him to cope.

Edward looked at him and knew that this was probably an aftereffect of the drug.He stood up and walked over to him, pulling out a set of sharp needles.

His gaze landed on the back of Darius’ head, and he said, “Sir, if you’re still feeling unwell, I can give you an injection or two.”

Darius saw the needles in his pocket and shot to his feet so quickly that Edward almost saw double.

Edward watched as he jumped over the desk, and his jaw dropped.

“Sir, there’s really no need for that.”

He slowly lowered the needle and put it back into its box.

Darius let out a sigh of relief.

Edward continued, “This is a treatment method from that mysterious country, and I’ve tried it on myself before.It works like magic, and I do it to myself regularly.”

Darius didn’t know how to react.



After a moment’s silence, he changed the topic.

“Why do you think an experimental drug from your lab would appear here?”

Edward’s expression turned grim.

“I don’t know, sir.I feel like we’ve ended up in some sort of maze, and it probably started from that woman’s appearance.”

Darius closed his eyes and leaned back.

“Someone seems to be leading us by the nose, and we’re in a passive position.We have to end this as soon as possible.”

Before he finished his sentence, his phone started ringing.He opened his eyes, glanced at it, raised an eyebrow, then answered it.

“Bruce.”

Bruce sounded anxious.

“Sir, I inadvertently learned that your trip to Almiron City isn’t going too well.If you need any help, please call me immediately.To the Reid Consortium, nothing means more than your safety.”

This time, Darius didn’t hear his grandfather’s voice on the other end of the line.

It made him feel a little uneasy, so he asked, “Bruce, where’s my grandfather?”

“I’m fine.You only need to worry about yourself.”

James’ voice wasn’t as anxious as it usually was, but it was very grim.



“I have a gut feeling about this, and I think I have some evidence to prove that they’re about to carry out some inhumane experiment.We don’t know what exactly is going on yet, though.”

Darius and Edward shared a look, immediately thinking of the villa.

Darius rubbed his temple and sighed.

“Grandpa, I think I know what’s happening.”

James’ hand clenched the phone tightly.

This was followed by Bruce’s horrified exclamation.

“Sir, your hand!”
