The Consortium's Heir

Chapter 151

Darius had a stoic expression on his face as he stared at the man scared beside the table filled with delicacies, and although he couldn’t look at luis grandfather’s expression now, he could guess that he had the same stoic expression.

Maxwell Finn was relatively landsome, and although he was old now, Darius could tell that he was a playboy in his younger days, and it wasn’t hard to tell where Michael Finn got his impressive looks from.

Although Maxwell Finn might look harmless right now, he could be more cunning and brutal than his son. They had the same blood after all.

Maxwell Finn stood up as a sign of respect and welcomed both Darius and his grandfather to the table.
