The Consortium's Heir

Chapter 12

at an expensive place like this. He looked like he couldn’t even afford a single item sold in the mall. The security guard scanned Darius over again before sighing. It was none of his business anyway. If he wanted to enter the mall he was free to do that. He was only here to quell all disturbances and maintain peace in the shopping mall. All that matter was that at the end of the month, he would receive his salary. Darius greeted the security guard stationed at the entrance of the building with a wide smile. The security guard nodded his head as a reply to his greeting, and then scanned Darius to make sure he wasn’t carrying any dangerous items on his person before granting him entry into the mall. Darius smiled at the security guard again before entering the shopping mall. Darius admired the grandeur of the interior of the shopping mall as he walked, before finally coming to a stop at the entrance to a famous clothing store, Louis Vuitton.  Darius smiled again before entering inside. The inside of the store really lived up to its designer name. Luxury was the right word to describe it. There were several types of clothing present, ranging from casual wears to luxurious wears. Darius was still looking at the various clothing when a sales lady rushed up to him. “Hello sir. How may I help you today?” The sales lady asked politely. She had found the customer first so she hoped that he would purchase some clothes. After all she always received commissions for each sale she made. “I’m here to purchase some clothes.” Darius responded. “Okay sir. Which type of clothes are you looking to purchase?” The sales lady asked. Darius looked around the clothing store for a few seconds before replying the sales lady. “I’d like some casual wears.” Darius answered. After careful consideration, he decided to buy casual wears. He just wanted to look good and presentable. Dressing in overly expensive clothes would only draw unwanted attention to him, which was something he didn’t want, at least not now. “Add some suits as well.” Darius remarked. He required outfits in case he was required to wear one for any occasion. After all, he couldn’t go everywhere in his casual attire. The sales lady smiled and nodded in affirmation before leading Darius to the sections of the clothing store where casual wears and suits were displayed. Together the two of them selected several casual outfits and three different suits. Darius was satisfied with the outfits the sales lady had selected. Although they were not flashy, they still exuded a bit of luxury. It was the type of clothes that you’d pay little attention to if someone wore the outfits on the road. The suits however were more luxurious than his casual outfits. They were all three piece suits, and they exuded splendor. Darius was very satisfied with the suits as well. Because the two of them had selected quite the number of outfits, as Darius didn’t have much outfits prior to this, they were both carrying a lot of shopping bags which the outfits were placed inside. Right before they got to the counter where Darius would make his payment, Darius bumped into someone, spilling some of the shopping bags he carried on the floor. Darius knew that he was at fault, since his eyesight was hindered due to the large amount of shopping bags he was carrying. However, before he could offer an apology to the person he bumped into, the person spoke up. “Hey! Are you stupid? Can’t you see properly? What kind of an idiot are you?!” the person shouted angrily. Darius frowned. He was not frowning at the insults directed at him, but at the fact that the voice sounded very familiar. He dropped the remainder of

here were nothing worth mentioning to him. He walked nonchalantly and leisurely to the entrance to the shopping mall. The security guard that was stationed at the door saw Darius walking towards the entrance and frowned. At a single glance, he saw that Darius was incredibly poor. He wondered what someone like him was doing at an expensive place like this. He looked like he couldn’t even afford a single item sold in the mall. The security guard scanned Darius over again before sighing. It was none of his business anyway. If he wanted to enter the mall he was free to do that. He was only here to quell all disturbances and maintain peace in the shopping mall.
