The Consortium's Heir

Chapter 253

Alicia now looked like a strong career woman.

Darius locked eyes with her and was about to speak, but she suddenly ran in his direction.

It sparked a grin across Darius’ face as he knew Alicia was still the same, innocent girl at heart.

As he stood there and stared at her, his clenched jaw loosened.

All the while, Erin stood next to him.

She paid attention to his shifting expressions, bitter disappointment forming in her heart.

Yet, Erin did not verbalize her feelings or show them on her face.

She knew such things would often occur in the future, especially if she wanted to stay beside Darius as more than his secretary.

She needed to get used to him being popular among women.

Regardless, Darius did not have the slightest idea of what Erin was thinking, and neither did Alicia.

At that moment, Alicia had arrived before Darius and was formally bowing to greet him and Erin.

"Thank you, Mr.Reid and Miss Erin.I don’t know what kind of life I’d be living now if it weren’t for your help." Darius could tell she was sincere from her gaze.

Even so, he sighed for the longest time before replying, "But the way you handle things at work still needs improvement."Alicia became as white as a sheet when she heard that.Yet, Darius continued, "Because a woman entered my hotel room today with a key, and it happened without anyone realizing it."

Not a hint of liveliness showed on Alicia’s face.

Her gaze tremored as it struggled to meet Darius’ eyes.
