The Consortium’s Heir By Benjamin Jnr Chapter 119


    Chapter 119 Erin and Zack both felt chills run down their spine as they looked at Darius who had a


    smileon his face.


    Although he was smiling, his gaze was extremely frightening. "Zack, bring methe list ofpanies that


    backed out from the projects we''re supposed to invest in." Darius suddenly said. Zack jolted from his


    thoughts in shock before hurrying away to obey Darius'' instructions. Secondster, Zack returned with


    a pile of documents in his hands which he then carefully handed over to Darius. Darius collected the


    documents and read through it, and just minutester, he gave his verdict. "Remove Terra


    International, Venus Inc., and Sky Industries from ourpany''s database." Darius issued an


    unexpectedmand. "From now on, West Antics Int''l will not have or entertain any form of


    business with these threepanies." Darius concluded with a tone of finality. Both Erin and Zack


    looked at Darius in astonishment. They didn''t expect his sudden decision at all. It was way too rash!


    Darius cklisted threepanies with worths in the hundreds of millions of dors, and also had


    a lot of power and influence in Capital City. Even though West Antics Int''l had far more money as a


    starting capital, the fact that thepanies were more influential than West Antics Int''l in Capital City


    did not change, as such power and influence was not something that West Antics Int''l could just build


    in a day. Working with them would be extremely beneficial, as West Antics Int''l was still a rtively


    newpany. As a result, Erin and Zack were both taken aback by Darius'' sudden decision to cklist


    the threepanies. "Mr. Reid, isn''t this too hasty a decision?" Zack asked tentatively. Erin kept silent


    as Zack questioned Darius, which meant she thought the same thing as well. Darius looked at Zack,


    who had a panicked expression on his face, and Erin, who had the same expression on her face


    despite her efforts to hide it, and smiled slowly before speaking. "Terra Int''l, Venus Inc., and Sky


    Industries have backed out from a total of seven projects which cost us quite a lot to acquire, including


    the Swallow park project; and about four of these projects have already been set to bepleted in the


    next four weeks." "Their backing out has left us several holes for us at West Antics Int''l to fix. It will


    be extremely unwise to continue to work with them in the future, regardless of their status and influence


    now." Darius exined slowly. However, Zack wasn''t convinced with Darius exnation, and gave hisAll content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    reason. "But Mr. Reid, thesepanies only pulled out of the projects because of the false rumors that


    the news channel spread. If we contact them now and exin the situation to them, I''m sure that they


    will request to rejoin the projects." Zack argued. Darius sighed slowly and looked at Zack. Sure


    enough, Zack still had the experiences of being the head of a third ratepany deep rooted in him,


    and it clearly affected his way of conducting things After managing a colossal technologicalpany


    like Nix Inc. for some time, Darius knew how these bigwigs thought. He knew that the only reason they


    partnered with West Antics Int''l was because of the seeminglyrge capital they had. It was hardly a


    secret, as bigpanies like theirs had their way of discovering things. Even if they didn''t know the


    exact amount West Antics Int''l capital was, they knew that it was big enough to give them a solid


    foundation in Capital City. As such, they were only with them for the benefits. They had no intention of


    helping them out if they encountered any crisis, as this was shown by the fact that the threepanies


    pulled out from the projects without hesitation the moment they encountered what could be called a ''


    small issue. They couldn''t even wait for Darius, the chairman of thepany, to issue a statement


    concerning the issue before backstabbing them. While Zack might be a bit overwhelmed by their status


    and influence and overlook this action of theirs, Darius won''t. There was no room for partnerships with


    companies like them. As for Zack, Darius believed that soon enough, when West Antics Int''lgrew to


    the level he expected it to, his mindset would surely change. Not everyone could easily adapt to the


    difference in status, and it waspletely normal for Zack to behave the way he was behaving now.


    "Just do as I say. I''m sure you''lle to understand sooner orter." Darius said calmly, without


    exining any further to Zack Although Zack was far from satisfied, and believed that they should still


    maintain their partnership with the threepanies, Darius was still his superior; therefore there was


    no way he could disobey him. He could only carry out his instructions, regardless of his thoughts about


    them. Zack exited the conference room to carry out Darius'' order, and now only Darius and Erin were


    left in the conference room. Darius slowly stood up from his chair at the head of the table and walked


    leisurely to the window in the conference room. Capital City was a very big and sessful city, with


    various luxury vehicles speeding past the road, and several office workers rushing about after a long


    day at work. Erin watched in silence as Darius watched the bustling city from the window. She couldn''t


    help but admire his side profile. Even though Darius was still dressed in his casual wear from the Reid


    mansion, the serene and tranquil aura surrounding him didn''t diminish one bit. He looked incredibly


    noble from that angle. Darius continued watching the bustling city from the window even after twenty


    minutes had gone by. By this time, Erin was already getting impatient. It was already veryte in the


    evening, yet Darius hadn''t made any move. After another ten minutes, Erin could no longer bear the


    silence and Darius inactivity. Just as she was about to speak up, a loud ping sound echoed in the silent


    conference room. Darius brought out his phone at that moment, and read through the message. The


    moment he finished reading the message, a chilling smile broke out on his face. 2 Now that his ns


    had finally been sessful, it was time for his opponent to have a taste of his own medicine.
