The Consortium's Heir

Chapter 122 (West Atlantics Int'l, Capital City) Darius' eyes shone when he heard Hector’s answer. The Gold Group! Darius had never expected that the person who was behind everything was the head of the Gold Group.

to go against an influential conglomerate group like the Gold Group? Therefore, when the Director heard that the caller was the chairman of West Atlantics Int'l, he quickly adjusted his attitude and expressed his apology towards him. Even though Darius was a bit annoyed at the effects and damages BNC news station brought to his company, he chose not to pursue it. The news station was a vital weapon in his hands, and if used appropriately, it could crush his opponents easily and thoroughly. Darius then disclosed his information regarding the Sterling Corporation's tax evasion crime and advised them to broadcast it the following day on their TV station. Because the director was already anxious to please Darius, he quickly accepted his offer. Furthermore, he could see by the quick rise of West Atlantics Int'lin Capital City that West Atlantics Int'l would only grow to be a very powerful force in the near future. As for how Darius managed to discover the well hidden documents and evidence about Sterling Corporations tax evasion, no one would expect that Hector's secretary would be the one to sell Hector Sterling out. Darius wasn't lacking funds, and when benefits were involved, especially monetary benefits, there was no way a secretary to the head of an already dwindling company would not be moved. For a sum of $1 million, Hector secretary sold him out quicker than anyone could expect. While one million dollars was nothing of note to Darius, to people like Hector's secretary, he would be able to live comfortably in another city for the rest of his life.

If Erin wasn't here, she wouldn't believe that such an elaborate plan happened in the conference room. In just a single night, Darius completely cornered the president of Sterling Corporations, and discovered the identity of the business group targeting him. Her respect for Darius shot up exponentially after this episode. Of course, Darius did not think that he did something so grand and impressive. The main reason his plans went according to plan was because Sterling Corporations was already on its last legs. All he did was trigger a series of events that would have "happened sooner or later without the Gold Group's intervention. Darius raised his head and sighed slowly. He didn't have a wink of sleep the previous night, so he was extremely fatigued after everything. He stood up from the chair and stretched slowly. Even with the dark circles underneath his eyes, and his roughed up hair, he was still extremely attractive. "You should go back and take the day off. You need to rest." Darius said softly to Erin. Erin was about to refuse his order, but when she saw the firm look in his eyes she changed her mind and acquiesced to his order. She nodded softly and left the conference room. Darius' eyes shone with appreciation as he looked at her retreating figure. She also didn't have a wink of sleep and stayed with him until he resolved the issue his company was facing. He was extremely impressed with her attitude. His thoughts soon shifted back to the Gold Group, and a frown appeared on his face. They were his greatest headache now. Darius sighed once again. With his company's current strength, there was no way he could take down the Gold Group so easily. Nonetheless, he already had the upper hand
