The Consortium's Heir

The Consortium’s Heir By Benjamin Chapter 182

Chapter 182

"You know, that reminds me-I was there when it happened. Pearl definitely detested Darius, but here she is, coming to university with him. It must be because of his sudden wealth."

"I would never have expected her to be someone like that. She's the third prettiest woman in our university!”

Aman standing silently nearby suddenly said, "I have a different point of view. If even someone like Pearl's starting to hang around him, just think about how rich he really is!"

Darius stopped walking and put a hand in his pocket. An ugly look crept onto his face. He didn’t understand why Pearl had fled earlier, but he now did. Once rumors started flying around about them, it wouldn't be an easy feat to prove their innocence.

However, the matter with the Gillette family had yet to be resolved. He couldn't act like he didn't know what was going on. So, he amplify his voice to the point that everyone present could hear him. “I’m chasing Pearl.

We're not officially together yet, but I hope you don't spread misinformation."

After that, he turned and left without a care. As for the three guys that had been speaking earlier... they were left squatting on the ground with their hands clapped over their ears, looking ashen. They’d never heard such a deafening sound before. Even now, their ears were ringing. It was as if they were suddenly caught in a vacuum.

Actually Pearl didn't leave. She was waiting for her grades. So, she heard Darius utter words she never thought she’d hear him say. He was chasing her? In her wildest dreams, perhaps. Of course, she knew he was only saying that to protect her image so the other students wouldn't think badly of her. The meaning behind his gesture only moved her more. Now, he would be the subject of their gossip, which he didn't seem to think about.
