The Consortium's Heir

Chapter 210

Kate bowed at Darius with the utmost respect just then. "There’s nothing much I have to repay you. Regarding the company's shares, I'll contact my dad and discuss things clearly with him. Also, my dad previously gifted me two companies within the entertainment industry. While I can't do much, I can give these companies to you."

Both Darius’ brows raised.

He was very much surprised by the generosity of the woman before him, so he asked, “What do you want in exchange for giving me those companies?"

Kate did not expect Darius to react so candidly. Nevertheless, she knew he had likely agreed to her request then. After sighing in relief, she answered,” I hope my dad can have a better experience at the detainment center."

Darius’ hand that swiped at his laptop's touchpad froze.

He looked up at Kate, examining her serious expression before grinning. Yet, his grin was not because he was happy.

"You think," he suddenly said, ‘That your father can’t contact you because I had someone lock him up at the detainment center?"

Kate gritted her teeth. She was unable to maintain her polite smile anymore. “Indeed, that’s what I previously believed before you asked me this.”

Gulping, she forced her body to stop trembling and added, "But it seems like I've mistaken things. I'm sorry."

She immediately bowed again, asking, "Can you please tell me where my dad is now? And how do I contact him?"

Darius' lip quirked upward, indicating his sudden interest. He rubbed his chin before replying, "Your father got arrested by the authorities for speeding on the highway because he wanted to rush to Elizabeth’s aid. According to our country’s law, there's no way for you to reach his phone now unless you know where the authorities are holding your father. If so, you can head there and
