The Consortium's Heir

Chapter 92

The next morning. Darius woke up much later than he usually did. This was expected, as he slept very late the previous day

He began his morning routine as soon as he woke up. He practiced the meditation techniques in the tattered book his grandfather gave him, before practicing his martial arts.

Once he was done with his morning routine, he took a quick shower to freshen up. After taking his shower, he had a waitress send his breakfast up to his room. He was almost done with his breakfast when his phone rang

He checked the caller ID and saw that it was Bruce who was calling him. He answered the phone call and put the phone on speaker

"Hello Young Master Reid " Bruce greeted the moment the call connected

"Hello Bruce Darius responded coolly.

"I have completed the in-depth review of Gillette Group I have also added the cause of the conflict between Chamberlains Corporation and Gillette Group to the review * Bruce said.

"Alright Thank you for your help Bruce" Darius said sincerely Even though he knew how efficient Bruce was when it came to matters like this, he was still surprised by Bruce's competence.

Moreover, he had even added the cause of the conflict between the two business groups despite him not asking for it it was a pleasant surprise as he was slightly curious to know the cause of the conflict "It's nothing young master Reid Bruce replied humbly

Darius hummed lightly in response to Bruce and disconnected the phone call. He then hastily finished up his breakfast before entering his study room

There, he would study the review that Bruce sent him in detail.

(Greenspring Residence]

Greenspring residence was a high end residence area in Almiron city, the city which the Chamberlains lived in

It was a luxurious residence area which was mainly built for the wealthy and affluent families in Almiron city The roads of the residence were neat, and the security in the residence was top notch, as each of the security guards were not ordinary people

with such impressive features and benefits, it was obvious as to why such a residence area was reserved for only the wealthy and affluent families in Almiron city

The Chamberlains were an example of such affluent family, as they could afford to live in Greenspring residence

Inside a beautiful villa along the streets of Greenspring residence, o large crowd was present in the villa

The almiosphere in the villa was very lense, and there were no smiles on the faces of the people present

The prople present were obviously members of the Chamberlain family, and the reason for the tense anyosphere was also very obvious

inchonany woje in deep trouble

A middle-aged man sat in a corner of the room, a tired expression on his face Although he was in his early forties, he seemed to have aged ten years and so seemed to be in his early fifties One glance at him and one could tell that he was going through a very tough time. He had heavy dark circles under his eyes, and his previously black hair was already turning white from stress He also looked very thin, as if he hadn't eaten for weeks, and seemed like he could collapse at anytime.

Anyone would be extremely shocked once they saw the pitiful looking man, as the pitiful looking man was none other than Liam Chamberlain, the co-founder of Chamberlain Corporation! As there was a crisis in the Chamberlains, every member of the Chamberlains was present, and of course that included Peart

The company he and his close friend had built from scratch to become this successful was in danger of running out of business. They were now being targeted by the powerful Gillette Group

The influence the Gillette Group had on Chamberlains Corporations was shocking to say the list. Just a week after offending them, four bank presidents had reached out to them. They demanded the Chamberlains Corporation to pay back the amount that was loaned to them immediately

The Chamberlains Corporation had borrowed over $10 million from each bank to ease their cash flow, and now that they were suddenly asked to pay back, it put them in a very precarious situation. If they paid back the loan now, they would be in danger of restricting their cash flow

Liam, why not call Mr Wilson and ask him to reconsider?" A female in her mid sixties asked Liam tentatively

She was Liam's aunt, and owned a small business company The success of her company was based on Chamberlains Corporation backing If her nephew lost his company, hers won't be so smooth sailing What do you mean by that Tara?!" Another family member rebuked Liam's aunt instantly

"But Jules. Tara started, but what was cut off impatiently by Jules

"No buts! The Chamberlains will never yield to someone so vile like Wilson!" Jules declared with a tone of finality

Jules, if we don't yield now, the Chamberlains will never have a foothold in Almiron city! Are you willing to sacrifice the sweat of everyone here because of your pride? Tanner, Liam's younger brother asked angrily

This isn't a matter of pride Tannerl Jules yelled back angrily

Sure enough, a heated argument soon broke out with everyone yelling at each other

Pearl watched everything with a stoic face, but her heart was aching with immense guilt and pain The once cheerful Chamberlains family was now al odds with each other because of her

It was safe to say that she was the cause of the conflict between the Gillette Group and the Chartberlains The reason was because a week earlier she was approached by a young man who was interested in her and invited her for a meal

She naturally turned down his invitation, as she didn't want to get involved with the young man Nevertheless, the young man had tried to coerce her to accept the invitation He even touched her in appropriate places as he did 00

Anpared, she slapped him twice and kneed him in the groin, before bealing him up ullerly hunulating hun in prince of many onlookers

prutyught that the matter would end that day byl never he wildest drearns did she expect that the

young man was the son of Wilson Gillette, the chairman of Gillette Group!

As a result of her rash actions, the Gillette Group had swiftly taken action against the Chamberlains Corporation, and now the Chamberlains were now in a precarious situation.
