the Gold Group.

"I see.” Darius replied calmly, despite the shock he felt. “I’ve toldyou what you wanted to know now. I
hope you''ll fulfill your promise." Hector said between gritted teeth from the other end of the phone.
“Rest assured. I''ll keep my end of the deal." Darius smiled and replied, before disconnecting the phone
call. After disconnecting the phone call, Darius interlocked his fingers, rested his chin on his fingers and
fell into deep thoughts. The Gold Group was Capital City''s thirdrgest business group, with a
worth in the billions of dors. Of course, the Reid Consortium could easily crush them, but Darius had
not considered this option. The Gold Group targeted West Antics Int''l, not the Reid Consortium;
therefore he would go against the Gold Group using the strength of West Antics Int''l, not the Reid
Consortium. This discovery put Darius in a bind. The Gold Group had deep roots in Capital City, and a
huge amount of influence, otherwise they wouldn''t be the thirdrgest business group in Capital City.
West Antics Int''l clearly had no way of going against the Gold Group with its current level of strength.
As for Sterling Corporations, Darius had never considered them his opponent. The tax evasion crime
was just the fastest way to crush the already crumblingpany. Although he promised to destroy
some evidence of Hector''s tax evasion, it was not enough for Hector to escape punishment from the
law. Tax evasion was just one of the heinous crimes Hector hadmitted to save hispany. By the
time the police were done with their investigation, his other crimes would be brought to light. By then, it
would be useless even if the remaining evidence were not handed over to the police. The real
opponent now was the Gold Group. They were the only opponent worthy of his time. He needed to
work twice as hard to take them down without the Reid consortium''s influence. As Darius'' eyebrows
were furrowed together as he was in deep thoughts, Erin watched him intently. There was a hint of
admiration, respect and awe as she looked at him. When Darius received the text message the
previous night, he immediately called the Director of BNC news station, the news station that reported
the false news about him. When the Director discovered the identity of the caller, he was ovee
with fear and shock. To be honest, BNC news would have not gone against West Antics Int''l,
especially with such a measly attempt if it were not for the influence the Gold Group had in Capital City.
They were just a news station. How could they hope to go against an influential conglomerate group
like the Gold Group? Therefore, when the Director heard that the caller was the chairman of West
Antics Int''l, he quickly adjusted his attitude and expressed his apology towards him. Even though
Darius was a bit annoyed at the effects and damages BNC news station brought to hispany, he
chose not to pursue it. The news station was a vital weapon in his hands, and if used appropriately, it
could crush his opponents easily and thoroughly. Darius then disclosed his information regarding the
Sterling Corporation''s tax evasion crime and advised them to broadcast it the following day on their TV
station. Because the director was already anxious to please Darius, he quickly epted his offer.
Furthermore, he could see by the quick rise of West Antics Int''lin Capital City that West Antics Int''l
would only grow to be a very powerful force in the near future. As for how Darius managed to discover
the well hidden documents and evidence about Sterling Corporations tax evasion, no one would expect
that Hector''s secretary would be the one to sell Hector Sterling out. Darius wasn''tcking funds, and
when benefits were involved, especially mary benefits, there was no way a secretary to the head of
an already dwindlingpany would not be moved. For a sum of $1 million, Hector secretary sold him
out quicker than anyone could expect. While one million dors was nothing of note to Darius, to
people like Hector''s secretary, he would be able to livefortably in another city for the rest of his life.
The rest of the events were smooth sailing and happened just as Darius expected, which led up to the
current turn of events. If Erin wasn''t here, she wouldn''t believe that such an borate n happened in
the conference room. In just a single night, Dariuspletely cornered the president of Sterling
Corporations, and discovered the identity of the business group targeting him. Her respect for Darius
shot up exponentially after this episode. Of course, Darius did not think that he did something so grand
and impressive. The main reason his ns went ording to n was because Sterling Corporations
was already on itsst legs. All he did was trigger a series of events that would have "happened sooner
orter without the Gold Group''s intervention. Darius raised his head and sighed slowly. He didn''t have
a wink of sleep the previous night, so he was extremely fatigued after everything. He stood up from the
chair and stretched slowly. Even with the dark circles underneath his eyes, and his roughed up hair, he
was still extremely attractive. "You should go back and take the day off. You need to rest." Darius said
softly to Erin. Erin was about to refuse his order, but when she saw the firm look in his eyes she
changed her mind and acquiesced to his order. She nodded softly and left the conference room.
Darius'' eyes shone with appreciation as he looked at her retreating figure. She also didn''t have a wink
of sleep and stayed with him until he resolved the issue hispany was facing. He was extremely
impressed with her attitude. His thoughts soon shifted back to the Gold Group, and a frown appeared
on his face. They were his greatest headache now. Darius sighed once again. With hispany''s
current strength, there was no way he could take down the Gold Group so easily. Nheless, he
already had the upper hand in the next sh with them. He already knew who was behind the attack
on hispany, but the Chairman of Gold Group had no clue about Darius knowing he orchestrated
the attack, thus giving him the element of surprise. All he needed to do was bid his time. They had
be enemies the moment the head of the Gold Group bared his fangs at him, and their conflict was
unavoidable. He only needed to ensure that by the time they shed, West Antics Int''l would be able
to totally crush them.
