The Consortium's Heir

Chapter 118 [West Atlantics Int‘l headquarters, Capital City.)

The atmosphere in the company‘s regal building was dull and tense. The workers were all moving about their daily activities with gloomy and forlorn expressions, unlike the usual bustling attitude they had previously.

The employees were not to be blamed however, as they had already seen the negative news about the chairman of their company. They were seasoned employees, so they knew how detrimental the effects of such news could be to their company.

The higher ups, such as Erin and Zack, were more depressed at the situation at hand. The company was still a very new one, so they were feeling aggrieved about the current turn of events. If their chairman was unable to resolve this issue, then it would be a huge setback in their already laid out plans.

The news had been embellished greatly by the media, so it had succeeded in creating a false impression about the chairman of West Atlantics Int’l.

The public didn’t know the full details regarding the accident, and they only believed what they were fed by the media, so it was understandable why they hurled insults and looked down unfavorably on West Atlantics Int‘l.

While Erin and Zack were at a loss on what to do, Darius arrived at the company. After parking his vehicle, he entered the building and headed straight to Erin‘s office.

It had just been less than an hour since she called him last, yet he was already present at the company. She couldn‘t imagine how fast he must have driven to get here so quickly.
