Chapter 105
The Consortium’s Heir By Benjamin Jnr Chapter 105
Darius was both devastated and frustrated by the deaths of the police officers. He blamed himself for his slow response. He had no idea the assailant would be so insane as to try to kill everyone in the room as a last ditch effort. If he had, he would have done everything he could to save the police officers.
Many people who were present when the explosion occurred rushed over to Darius‘ apartment seconds later. The explosion was too serious of an issue to ignore.
They soon arrived at Darius‘ apartment. Meanwhile, several phone calls had already been made to the police department before they rushed over.
When the police officers checked their records and saw that they had already dispatched two police officers to the specified location, they dispatched a large number of officers to his apartment this time.
When the staff and visitors at Dragon Imperial Lord Residence arrived and saw Darius‘ room in such a sorry state, they all sucked in a cold breath.
It was as if a battle had taken place here!
They were even more taken aback when they noticed the three motionless bodies on the floor. It was then they suddenly realized that the cause of the explosion was far from simple.
Not less than five minutes later, a large number of police cars arrived outside the building and barricaded the entire Dragon Lord Imperial Residence, causing a commotion.
The police officers then rushed into Darius‘ wrecked room. They asked him to accompany them to the police station after seeing three motionless bodies on the floor of his room and the chaotic scene in his room. There, they would take his statement about the whole assassination incident.

They then barricaded Darius‘ apartment. Since the situation was a little frightening, they needed to look into it meticulously.
After that, the crowd dispersed with several questions in their mind. However, there was no one to ask what had happened, so they swallowed their questions and obediently left the scene.
[Primera Estate]
Inside the luxurious study room, the mysterious persona was leisurely reading through some documents in the study room while sipping a glass of wine beside him. However, his brows were furrowed in worry, betraying his leisurely demeanor.
It had already been four hours since he sent out the masked figure, Jabal, to incapacitate Darius and make him bedridden or a month. According to his previous report, Darius was not an awakened martial
Why then was he taking so long?
The mysterious persona closed the documents on his table and leaned back on his chair. He couldn‘t shake off the feeling that something had gone terribly wrong.
As he was still contemplating on what could have gone wrong, a loud sound suddenly blared in the room.
The mysterious persona jolted from his chair in shock the moment he heard the loud sound.
Impossible!
His heart was filled with dread the moment he heard the sound. He dashed over to a safe in the far
corner of the room and entered the pass code. By this point, no trace of his usual mystery or self– control could be found in his actions. He was absolutely petrified.
He opened the safe and brought out a small red box before opening it. There were originally five red circles in the box, but now, there were only four. The last circle had turned black.
The mysterious persona was completely stunned at that moment.
The five red circles were items used to monitor the safety of his personal bodyguards, and also make sure that they were unable to escape his grasp. No matter where they were, their location and well being would always be transmitted to him at all times Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
There were five of them, and each of them was an awakened martial artist with incredible combat skills.
As long as each of the five circles shone red, it meant that no harm had befallen the bodyguards and they were alive; but if any of the circles stopped showing red and changed its color to black, it meant that the bodyguard the red color belonged to had lost his life.
Of course, the circle which had turned black belonged to his fifth bodyguard, Jabal.
The mysterious persona couldn‘t make any sense of this. Even though Jabal was the weakest among the bodyguards he had, he was still an awakened martial artist and should be able to deal with Darius very easily.
How on earth did he lose to Darius who was not an awakened martial artist?
The mysterious persona sighed quietly and closed the small red box and stuffed in the safe back before locking it. He then walked over to the desk in the room and took his phone from the table before making a phone call.
The call rung only once before the line connected.
“Sir.” A deep voice sounded from the other end of the phone.
“Have you completed the mission I assigned to you?” The mysterious persona asked impatiently.
“Not yet. I just need a week more.” The voice responded politely.
“Round it off quickly and come back. I have a new mission for you.” The mysterious persona gave a commanding order and then abruptly disconnected the phone call without waiting for a response from the person on the other end of the line.
There was no need to think about it now. Since Jabal was dead now without him knowing the reason why, it would be incredibly foolish of him to take any rash action concerning Darius without further investigation.
What he needed to do was to lay low and wait until his reinforcement arrived. What he needed to do was stay quiet and wait for reinforcements. He estimated that his reinforcement would arrive in four weeks. Therefore, he just had to stay low for four weeks.
His gaze became cold as he leaned back in his chair, remembering Jabal‘s death. Because of a single person, what should have been a simple mission had become more complicated. He feared that if he didn‘t take care of Darius Reid soon, he would not be able to accomplish anything.
