The Consortium's Heir

Chapter 240 

Borisin scoffed at him.

"Aren’t you worried there’ ll be a repeat of what just happened?"

Darius’ temples throbbed, and it got on his nerves.

He rubbed them lightly and said, "What’s there to worry about? You’re still alive, aren’t you?"

When he returned to the hotel, he saw a bunch of people crowding around the entrance.He stayed in the car and focused his attention on them.

Sure enough, he heard an obnoxious voice ring out, saying, "Look, this is what you get for offending me! That dumbass Darius, his lackeys, and mistress haven’t shown their faces here anymore, have they?"

"Of course! As expected of Lyon! Man, who does that fucking Darius, or whatever his name is, think he is? I'll teach him a lesson the next time he shows up here!"

The people in the car frowned.

After all, Darius had lost some of his memories for unknown reasons, and this wasn't good news to them.

Also, Erin was worried that it had something to do with his health.She’d seen how much effort he’d put into his work and studies.

Just as she was worrying over this, Lyon showed up again.

"I’ll give him this—he’s a lucky bastard.All those pretty little ladies are falling over themselves to be with him—even that receptionist!"

Erin’s eyes widened.

She hated the way Lyon talked about Darius, and she forced out through gritted teeth, "It looks like we went easy on him before."

Edward nodded.

"Yeah, you're right.Earlier on, I didn't want to go overboard because we had yet to figure out things here, but there’s no need to hold back this time."

Borisin, who was seated in the passenger seat, couldn’t help his lips from twitching.

He'd seen how terrible Lyon looked before— his arm, leg, and even collarbone had been broken.

Was that their definition of "going easy" on someone? If they really wanted to teach him a lesson, would he still be alive? He cleared his throat at this thought, and everyone turned to look at him.

He sighed and looked at Miguel.

"I want you to stay with them until they leave Almiron City."

Darius wasn’t bothered by this.He was more annoyed by the fact that Lyon was out there bragging mindlessly.

"You guys don’t even know how gorgeous those women trailing Darius were!"

This was followed by mindless catcalling and howling from his lackeys.

He narrowed his eyes and asked frostily, "Did you guys hear that?"

Borisin didn’t say anything.

Things had changed now, and he was the one who had to try to figure out what was going on.

Edward and the others didn’t need to consider this, though.

They nodded and said, "Yes, sir."

Darius sighed.

"Erin, correct me if I’m wrong, but this hotel has a baseball field, right?"

Erin immediately knew what he wanted to do.

"Yes, sir.I know where the baseball bats are kept."

Borisin turned to glare at him disapprovingly.

"You’re being too rash! If you get yourselves locked up because of this, even I won't be able to help you."

Darius’ voice was colder than ever as he said, "Officer Martinez, you’re making it sound like we’re more than acquaintances."

Borisin met his gaze.His eyes were deep, endless pools of darkness, and they made him feel like he was sinking into nothingness.He quickly turned back around and laughed awkwardly.

As he tried to think of something to ease the tension, Darius said, "I hope this doesn’t happen again.Regardless of our relationship, I won’t let you off the hook if you do this again."

Borisin shuddered and widened his eyes in fear.

"Y-you know who Tam?"

Darius scoffed.He didn’t say anything.

The driver parked the bus at the hotel’s entrance.

The crowd at the entrance turned to look at them.

When Borisin saw that Darius didn’t move, he said to the driver, "Just drive on in."

To his surprise, Darius said, "No, there’s no need.You can hang around for a while, though.I'll probably need to go to the detention center with you later."

Borisin was lost for words.

After some thought, he realized there were no alternatives.

He couldn't stop any of these people.

The door opened, and Edward was the first person to step out.

Bridget was right behind him.

Lyon had been in the middle of his bragging, and the sudden appearance of a bus distracted him.

Just as he was thinking about how he would vent his anger, the door opened.

He stood with his hands on his waist and looked arrogantly at the people getting down.

He didn't believe for a second that this was someone he should fear.

The next second, he paled when he saw who it was.

He subconsciously balled his hand into a fist as he placed it on his leg.

Suddenly, he remembered how much pain he’d been in and released a tormented cry.

Darius put his hands behind his back and looked at Lyon.

"It’s too bad for him that I don’t plan on letting him go."

Borisin’s lips twitched. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

"I might be able to help you out if they sue you for damages, but I can’t do anything about paying your bail."

Darius waved a hand.

"I have nothing but money.There's nothing to worry about, though.The most I’ll have to pay if they sue me is three million.That’s not even enough to buy half a car.What does it matter?"

When Borisin heard how casual he sounded, he couldn’t help rolling his eyes.

Erin looked confused, but she didn’t say anything.

Darius would tell her about it if he felt that she needed to know, so she took a deep breath and turned to look at Lyon and his gang.

Only a few minutes had passed, but they were all already lying on the ground.

"Darius, I'll show you how much my life is worth!"
