The Consortium’s Heir By Benjamin Jnr Chapter 77
Darius was incredibly shocked at Luke’s action, but he recovered very quickly. After drinking the golden
liquid, he had received a tremendous boost to his physical attributes and hisbat pro wess also
received a drastic power up.He quickly leapt back beforeunching a powerful kick to Luke’s wrist. The
kick was incredibly po werful, dispossessing Luke at once. The kuile fell from his hands andnded a
safe distance from Luke.Everyone present breathe in a sigh of relief at the turn of events. They thought
that Luke would b e sessful in luis attempt, but luckily Darius was well versed inbat, therefore
thwarting Luk e’s murder attempt.Darius stared at Luke with unchecked hostility. One look at himn and
one could tell that he was incredibly furious!He was a fool to have ever felt an iota of sympathy towards
Luke. He thought that the dire situation his family was would make him remorseful of his actions since
he was the one who put them in a difficult situation in the first ce, but it was far from his
expectations. Not only did he not feel any form of remorse at his crimes, he was even bold enough to
try to take his life in broad daylight!Darius red at Luke. His re wasvery bone chilling, and it sent
shivers down Luke’s spine, who was on the receiving end of the att ack.This was the second time he
had tried to take his life. It was indeed true that a leopard couldn’t c hange his spots no matter how
hard it tried. It was the same for Luke; he couldn’t change his vile character no matter how hard he
tried.Darius now understood why his grandfatherhad made the Erihal Group on the verge of
bankruptcy. If he didn’t show that he wasn’t someon e that should be trifled with, his foes would keep
trampling upon him.If he had taken care of Lukewhen he found him trying to force himself on Helen,
none of this would have happened in the fir st ce.Luke on the other hand was now panicking greatly.
Now that his attemptto end Darius’ life had failed, he was in an even direr situationthan before. Darius
re was even more soul piercing, sending shivers offear down his spine. Before Luke could even get
a grip of himself, a blinding pain assaulted him his cheek. Darius had punched him right in the jaw!Luke
screamed loudly and fell to the floor in pain. Darius had no idea that his physical attributes had
increased tremendously, so his punch was incredibly powerful. It was so powerful that it alm ost broke
Luke’s jaw.Darius was about to continue his assault on Luke, but loud sirens sounds started echoing inAll content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.
the distance, which made him halt his actions.A quick witted student had called for the police when
shesighted the knife in Luke’s hands. This action hadundoubtedly saved Luke’s life, as Darius would
have definitely killed him if it weren’t for their arrival.1.3More than three police cars arrived at the scene,
creating a loudmotion. The second the poll ce cars arrived, several policemen alighted from the
cars.They walked over to where Lukey on the floor with handcufis in their hands.“Mr. Luke Eribal,
you are under arrest for the attempted murder of Mr. Darius Reid. This is necess ary to allow the
prompt and effective investigation of this offence and to prevent escape. You ha ve theright to remain
silent, anything you Sey can and will be used against you in the court ofw.” The policeman said as he
handcused Luke,The Erihal Group had finally gone under, meaning that therewas no longer any
protection for Luke He was no longer under the shelter of his father’s influenc e and it was finally time
to face the repercussions of his actions.The police men arrested Luke and took him into their custody.
Darius was very aggrieved at the way the events yed out. He wanted to release all the pent up
anger he harbored towards Luke , but was unable to do so now that Luke was in police custody. No
matter how aggrieved he was, he had no choice but to ept it.After Lukewas arrested by the
policemen, everyone finally left the lecture venue. However, the events that happened undoubtedly
raised Darius’ status in their hearts, especially after he defended himself properly against Luke’s
murder attempt. There was no doubt that this would be broadcasted aro und the whole
university.Thenext day went on as usual for Darius. He meditated, practiced his martial arts routine,
and took a quick shower. He was about to have his breakfast when he received a phone call. He
checked th e caller ID and saw it was his personal assistant Erin. Seeing that, he quickly answered the
phone call.“Hello, Mr. Reid.” Erin said. Without wasting a single minute, Erin went straight to the point.
Now that Luke was in police custody to pay for his crimes, and his father also in custody to face the
repercussions of covering up Luke’s crimes, the whole Erihal Group was in shambles.So many of the
company workers had resigned, and the few left were also thinking of resigning. Erin then suggested
that Darius purchase the whole Erihal Group now that they were at an all ti me low from the two Erihal
brothers, and then revive thepany in his name.Darius thought about it and saw that it was indeed a
great idea. As such, he gave Erin the permis sion to go ahead with her idea.Erin thanked Darius
beforedisconnecting the phone call. Darius let out a small smile after the call disconnected. He was
d that he had gotten himself a personal assistant with great foresight.The acquiring process was very
smooth and waspleted in less than a day. In the end, Darius bought the whole Erihal Group from
Luke’s brothers for 20 billion dors. He was bei ng very generous, as the Erihal Group wasn’t worth
that amount with the crisis they went throug h The brothers quickly agreed to such a huge sumof
money. After all with such a huge amount, they would be able to live the rest of their lives without any
worries.Darius then named thepany ‘West Antics Inti.’ and handed over the management to Erin
after signing all the documents.Luke was now convicted and would most likely be spending the rest of
his years behind bars. He h ad also acquired his father’spany. Although he didn’t get to take
matters in his own hands, th e fact that Luke was being punished for his crimes was enough for him.
