Chapter 55
The Consortium’s Heir By Benjamin Jnr Chapter 55
Darius drove his car at top speed as he wanted to arrive at Eve bar as soon as possible. He was naturally breaking the speed limits as he drove, which drew the attention of various traffic officers to him. However when they saw the customized license plate and the expensive looking sports car, they turned a blind eye to his high speed. Such a person would definitely have a powerful identity. As long as he didn’t get involved in a road accident, they could overlook his misgivings.
After one hour of driving at top speed, Darius finally arrived at his destination. The outside of the bar was already busy, with the loud music from inside the bar echoing outside the building. There was a long queue of people waiting to enter, showing that the bar was a popular one. When Darius pulled into the parking lot with his sports car, his arrival naturally drew a lot of attention “Wow! Such an expensive sports car!” A male in waiting in the queue said. The moment the bouncers saw the expensive looking sports car, one of them instantly walked up to the sports car. As bouncers who had worked here for a bit of time, they knew that anyone that could afford such an expensive car was not a trivial person. The owners would most likely be heirs to powerful business empires, companies or families; therefore they enjoyed being treated differently from other people. When Darius alighted from the sports car, the females suddenly had hearts in their eyes. So handsome! Darius, having completely embraced his wealthy identity was a complete spec of a male. The females were blushing deeply as they looked at Darius while the males had expression of jealousy on their face. Not only was he handsome, he was also very rich! The world was not a fair one indeed. “This way Sir.” The bouncer said, before guiding Darius to the bar through the entrance meant for VIPs.
Soon enough, they were inside the building. Darius tipped the bouncer generously before making his way to an unoccupied table. After ordering a bottle of the most expensive wine available, he sat down and started looking around. The bar was loud and rowdy, and stank of alcohol and sweat, but Darius
wasn’t bothered. He only had one purpose for coming here anyways. Once he accomplished his purpose, he would leave.
Darius spent the next thirty minutes looking around the bar while waiting for the arrival of . Erin Chrysalis. Just when he thought that she wasn’t going to show up today, Darius finally caught sight of her.
She was dressed in a sensual black gown that was a bit exposing, with her hair completely white under the dim lighting in the bar. Her entrance garnered the attention of many men who were lusting after her. However Erin rejected all of their advances and ordered a drink Sure enough, as soon as her bottle of vodka arrived, she started drinking immediately.
Darius watched her empty the contents of the first bottle of vodka. He couldn’t help but applaud her alcohol tolerance. He would have been knocked out by a single bottle of vodka if he were in her place. His alcohol tolerance was very bad after all.
Twenty minutes went by quickly. Apart from her emptying the contents of the bottles and the occasional disturbance from the males who wanted to drink with her, nothing else happened.
Darius wanted to talk to her, but couldn’t find a way to do so. He was afraid of having his intentions misinterpreted by her. If that happened it would be very difficult to recover from. First impression mattered a lot after all.
He was still thinking of how to approach her when two men came over to her table. Due to the loud music blasting from the speakers and the distance between them, Darius couldn’t hear what the conversation among the trio were all about. After a minute he noticed that Erin had a pissed expression on her face. He guessed that she said something mean because a few seconds later the two males who walked over to her table had angered expressions on their faces. The trio argued for a few more minutes before leaving her table in anger.
Darius saw this as his opportunity to approach her. However before he could make his own move, Erin got up from her table and started walking towards the exit after leaving the money for the drinks on her table.
Darius was shocked at her actions. The reports had clearly stated that she usually spent 4-6 hours in the bar before leaving. However what was this situation? Barely thirty minutes had gone by and she was already leaving. Darius cursed under his breath before getting up from his chair and hastily chasing after her. He had to achieve his objective today.
He walked as fast as he could, but inadvertently lost her in the crowd. By the time he exited the bar, she was nowhere to be found.
Darius sighed. He had no choice than to come back again tomorrow. He had hoped to complete his business and hire Erin to be his personal assistant today, but it seemed that wouldn’t be the case anymore.
Disappointed with the outcome, he started making his way towards his Bugatti. He had only covered a small distance when he heard a loud scream.
Darius debated whether to ignore the scream or not. The surrounding was very dark after all with little moonlight. It was not uncommon for some couples to get steamy during such days. Perhaps that was the source of the scream.
After debating internally for a few seconds, curiosity got the better of him and he decided to check it out. If it was what he thought it was, he would leave immediately. He was not a pervert after all.
Having come to a decision, he walked towards the source of the scream. However the sight he encountered was the least of his expectations, and was one that filled him endless anger.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
