The Consortium’s Heir By Benjamin Jnr Chapter 33
Chapter 33 When the manager of the Dragon Lord‘s Imperial Residence heard Mr. Bruce‘s threat, she
waspletely taken aback. He had repeatedly informed her that an extremely important guest would
be arriving and that she should treat him with the utmost respect, but she had no idea that the guest ha
d already arrived. If she had, she would have dropped what she was doing and attended to the guest i
mmediately!
Even though she was the manager of Dragon
Lord‘s Imperial Residence, she had witnessed how Mr. Bruce treated those who were obviously superi
or to her. If Bruce could treat the people superior to her like ants, how important was the person who Mr
. Bruce himself had referred to as an extremely important guest?
without any dy the manager stood up, picked her phone and ran out of her office. She had to make
amends for her actions no matter what otherwise she
would have to face the brunt of Mr. Bruce‘s anger!
Meanwhile, in the lobby of the Dragon Lord‘s Imperial Residence, the receptionist was ring at Darius
with great contempt. She found his attitude to be unbelievable.
Darius certainly appeared to be a well–to–
do person now that he had changed his poor clothes for very decent ones, but his
outfit was still considerably below that of the people who usually visited the residence; therefore he was
no one important in the eyes of the receptionist.
Now such an unimportant person had demanded a meeting with the manager of this imperial residence
, like as if he owned the ce. To make matters worse, he had not even
booked an appointment with the manager yet!
As if that wasn‘t enough, the shameless stranger had made a phone call demanding the person
on the other end of the line to inform the manager of his
presence and tell her to meet with him. He even added that he was in a hurry!
She couldn‘t believe the level of shamelessness one had to have to pull off such a stunt. It was beyond
herprehension. There was simply no way this stranger could be so important that the manager
herself would have to meet him in person. Besides, she had seen several people who were important
and she was sure that this stranger was not one of them.
She was about to call the security personnel to chase Darius out of the building when someone rushed
into the lobby.
Darius and the receptionist both looked in the direction the person wasing from. The receptionist s
aw that the figure looked very familiar but she
couldn‘t tell who the person was because of the distance between them.
Only when the person approach her did the receptionist recognize who she was. It was none other than
the manager of the Dragon Lord‘s Imperial Residence herself!
The receptionist was stunned! They rarely saw the manager of the Dragon Lord‘s Imperial
Residence except at official events and ceremonies involving the residence. What was she doing here?
Wasn‘t she supposed to be preupied with matters pertaining to the residence?!
The manager rushed up to where Darius was and the receptionist standing behind the counter

and asked in an urgent tone. “Has someone named Darius Reide here to look for me?” the manag
er inquired, staring directly at the receptionist. “Darius Reid?” the receptionist asked. She had certainly
heard that name before. Almost immediately, Darius‘ handsome face popped up in her mind. It was
as if Darius was reading her mind, because as soon as his face shed through her mind, a male voice
sounded in the lobby. “That would be me.” Darius spoke up, Darius spoke up, his gaze drifting to the m
anager.
The manager instantly turned to face Darius. The moment she did however, she was rendered speechl
ess.
Mr. Bruce had mentioned an important guest therefore she expected the guest to be someone who was
either middle aged or older than Mr. Bruce himself. However that wasn‘t the case! The guest she was t
old to entertain was someone who looked to be in his early twenties. That wasn‘t the only thing. Not onl
y was he very young, he was very handsome too!
The manager immediately bowed her head to Darius. Now wasn‘t the time to be smitten by his looks. T
his was someone who was unreachable to her and also someone she had to please at all costs.
“Wee to Dragon Lord‘s Imperial Residence, Mr. Reid. It‘s an honor to meet you sir.” The manager
said in a very polite tone. “Hm. Are you the manager of this residence?” Darius inquired casually.
“Yes sir. I am the manager of this residence.” The manager answered as politely as ever.
Darius nodded lightly. The receptionist on the other hand wasn‘t finding the
situation interesting at all! She knew that she was in deep trouble!
The moment she saw the manager rush into the lobby looking very flustered just a few minutes after Da
phone call, she knew that Darius was no ordinary person. After all, no ordinary person could make the m
the Dragon Lord‘s Imperial Residencee down so quickly!
The receptionist immediately turned to Darius, a pleading expression on her face. She hoped that Dariu
“What do you mean by that, Mr. Reid?” the manager asked, moving her gaze away from the receptionist
Darius smirked.
“Well, I told the receptionist here thirty minutes ago to notify you of my presence, but she
didn‘t. She was also very rude to me, a visitor here. If she treats other guests here in this manner, it wou
The manager‘s demeanor instantly changed when she heard Darius‘ question. She shifted her gaze bac
asking in a dangerously low voice. “Is this true, Miss Maureen?”
