The Consortium's Heir

The Consortium’s Heir By Benjamin Jnr Chapter 76

The students all sucked in a cold breath when they arrived at that conclusion. Such conclusion m eant that Darius was even more impressive than they thought. It was very unnerving that such a brilliant figure was frolicking in the university as a poor and wretched fissure!

Darius on the other hand was still glaring at Luke with unbridled hostility. He didn’t care a single bit about Luke’s apology. He wasn’t a saint or a martyr, so how was he supposed to forgive some one who came afterliis life? II was simply an irreconcilable action!

He was also having a hard time believing that Luke was truly remorseful for his actions, Perhaps he was only willing to beg for lenjency because the protection of the Erihal Group would be non existent if the Erihal Group went under.

“I’m sorry, but I cannot help you out. I have no idea who is behind the targeted actions toword th e Erihal Group, therefore there’s nothing I can do.” Darius said coldly.

Even though he was itching to beat up Luke, he reigned in his anger. He couldn’t just attack Luke out here in the open, especially in front of his fellow students.

He was also being honest with his answer; and was even willing to go as far as put his difference s with Luke aside that moment. Even if he had come to the conclusion that his grandfather was b ehind the bankruptcy of the Erihal Group, it was still a deduction. He couldn’t really tell unless he spoke with his grandfather and confirmed his deduction.

“Please! I’m sorry for my crimes!

Please save my family!” Luke begged loudly. He had completely discarded his pride and humble d himself before Darius in front of the student body.

When Darius saw how sincere Luke’s plea

was, he had a complicated expression on his face. Even though he was feeling aggrieved and boi ling with rage at Luke’s attempt to take his life, he still had human empathy. Seeing Luke in such a miserable state made him feel a little bit sorry for him.

Darius however didn’t reply to Luke’s plea. He instead turned his back and started walking away f rom Luke. He still needed to confirm if his grandfather was the one behind their downfall before he decided on what to do next.

“Look at him. He looks so pathetic.” A student gossiped when they saw the pathetic state Luke w as in.

“Hmph! Serves him right!” another student chimed in. She did not feel the tiniest bit of pity for L uke, not after reading through his crimes he committed on the internet. They were just too vile!

Luke raised his head from the floor and looked Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

around. He saw that Darius had ignored him completely and left him there, completely disregard ing his plea for mercy.

Luke confidence level was severely hit at Darius’ actions. He in fact was not the least remorseful f or his actions. Not even one single bit! The only reason he was here was because his father had informed him of how dire his situation was and yelled at him greatly.

As a result, he swallowed his pride and came here dressed shabbily in order to earn pity points. However, he did not expect Darius to not even spare him a single glance at all!

He looked around once more and saw that majority of the students were looking at him with co ntempt, pily or indifference. Luke couldn’t stand that. Even if they were not students of Lockwoo d University,

they still had peers and friends there. As such, his shameful situation would definitel y be broadcasted around the whole Lockwood University!

Luke clenched his fists as he glared at the ground. He had never been so humiliated in his life be fore. In the end it was all Darius fault!

If it weren’t for Darius, he would have had his way with Helen.

If he had gotten his way with Helen, he wouldn’t have to make use of his father’s bodyguards. If he didn’t make use of his father bodyguards to severely injure Darius, his grandfather would never have gotten involved.

ved.

If his grandfather had not gotten involved, the Erihal group will still be very much alright. They wouldn’t have been in danger of bankruptcy.

If his family wasn’t in danger of bankruptcy, he wouldn’t have to kneel before Darius for mercy.

In the end, it all boiled down to Darius. Darius was the one who was responsible for him and his f amily misfortune. As if to make matter worse, he had even set Luke up to be ridiculed by the rest of the student body!

Luke’s pride and ego couldn’t deal with such blatant display of disrespect. Since

Darius had refused to help him and his family, he had nothing left to live for. With his family business going bankrupt and

no one to protect him, he would spend majority of his years behind bars. It was an outcome he I east desired.

There was a crazy glint in his eyes. All this had happened because Darius existed in the first place . If he didn’t exist, then none of

this would have happened, and he would still be on top of the world like before.

Since that was the case, it would be better to take care of Darius

right then. As such, he fumbled in his pockets

and brought out a knife before getting up from the ground and dashing towards Darius. He was aiming to kill Darius.

The students who were mocking Luke all let out frightened screams at his sudden action. Their screams reached Darius ears, and coupled with the foreboding he felt looming over him, he turned back in time to see Luke running with full speed at him with a knife in his hands!
