The Consortium’s Heir by Benjamin_Jnr

Chapter 79 Darius let out a helpless sigh at his grandfather's words before sending the company's address to his grandfather’s e-mail. There was

nothing he could do than to obey his grandfather's wishes.

He quickly exited the conference room with Erin following closely behind. He rushed downstairs and stood at the entrance to the building to

wait for his grandfather.

Just thirty minutes after he sent the company's address to his grandfather, three beautiful white Rolls-Royce cars pulled up outside the

company's building.

The bodyguards who escorted his grandfather alighted from the Rolls-Royce cars and opened the door to a Rolls-Royce car. His grandfather

and Bruce then alighted from the car slowly.

The bodyguards quickly surrounded his grandfather and Bruce, providing them maximum security from any security threats. Darius quickly

walked over to his grandfather and greeted in a polite voice.

"Grandfather! You didn't really need to come over here!"

However his grandfather just waved off his greeting. He didn't have time to spare for pleasantries.

"Take me to the conference room at once. We have a lot to discuss." His grandfather ordered.

Left with no choice, Darius could only do as his grandfather wished. He instructed some of the bodyguards who escorted his grandfather to

remain behind and guard the building while the rest of the bodyguards escorted them inside.

They then walked briskly to the conference room. On their way there, Darius noticed that his grandfather kept glancing around the interior of

the company. Darius could tell that he was very unsatisfied with the interior of the building, however Darius said nothing.

When they got to the conference room, his grandfather instructed both Bruce and Erin to wait outside.

Bruce instantly obeyed his instruction, and Bruce and Erin took their seats just outside the conference

room.

Darius and his grandfather then both entered the conference room. His grandfather took the seat at the

head of the table, while Darius sat close to his grandfather.

When they were settled in, his grandfather spoke up.

"I am really pleased with your foresight." His grandfather started.

"It didn't cross my mind to purchase the Erihal Group. It is indeed a wise move." Darius' grandfather

praised.

Darius blushed slightly at the compliments. If he were being honest he was just like his grandfather. He

had no intentions of purchasing the Erihal Group. If it weren't for Erin's timely advice, he would not

have considered it at all.

"Actually, grandfather, it wasn't my idea to purchase the Erihal Group. It was rather my assistant's

idea." Darius said. He didn't want his grandfather to misunderstand him, and thereby overestimate his

abilities.

Darius grandfather however had little reaction to Darius' confession. It didn't matter if

it was Darius idea or his assistant's idea. II took nothing from the ingenuity of the idea, "To be honest, I

wanted you to build your own company corliec Even though the Reid consortium is a very affluent

group, and you’re currently the consortium's head, you are still a university student for you to lead the

Reid consortium, you still need a lot of experience" His

randratier said,

Darius' eyebrow twitched when he heard his grandfather's statement. It showed how annoyed he was!

Who was il wlio abruptly made him the consortium's head the same day he wos found? It was his

brandfather of course!

Now his same grandfather was lecturing about experience!

When his grandfather noticed his grandson eyebrow twitching a wave of nostalgia hit him. He was also

a bit embarrassed at that moment,

When he had discovered his grandson was still alive, he was overwhelmed by a lot of emotions, and

therefore hurriedly appointed him as the head of the Reid consortium. However it just dawned on him

that he had made a hasty decision. Darius was just 2Ỡ years old and a third year university student.

There was no way that he would have the experience to lead the whole assois of the Reid consortium.

Even at that, he was glad that he had given Darius access to a few of the assets that the Reid

consortium owned. He was sure that Darius had garnered a bit of experience from the few months be

managed the assets, and that when he grew his company to become a titan in the corporate world, he

would be able to manage the whole assets effortlessly.

"Ahem. His grandfather couched lightly.

"I admit I was indeed too hasty in the past." His grandfather admitted remorsefully. "But I was just

thinking about the future of the Reid consortium."

Darius nodded lightly in agreement. He understood where his grandfather was coming from,

"I understand grandfather." Darius said quickly. He didn't want his grandfather to feel bad about his decisions,

"Alright. So what do you have in plan for your company?" his grandfather asked straightforwardly,

"I plan on creating an investment company." Darius answered steadily.

Hebad thought deeply about it and came to that conclusion. Since several of the assets he owned were already giants in different fields, it

would be self destructive to create another company and focus in that same field, but it would be a different case if he created an investment

group

If his company were based on investments, then they could dabble in many fields both locally and internationally, indearn profits by investing

in companies or projects with huge potential. It was a very solid design,

Darius' grandfather was indeed pleased with Darius' plans for his company. It was truly an inventive aspiration

"That's a great objective." Darius' grandfather praised sincerely.

"However, to start up an investment company, you need a lot of capital." His grandfather pointed out.

Darius fell silent at that. It was true that he needed a lot of capital to start up his investment group. While he was indeed very wealthy, he had

just used all the money he had to acquire the Erihal Group from Luke brothers. As such, he didn't have more than a few thousand dollars on

him.

His grandfather naturally knew about his situation, therefore he spoke up. "Don't worry about the capital. I'll give you a considerable sum as

capital." His grandfather said indifferently. Darius felt elated after hearing his grandfather's words, but before he could celebrate his small

victory, his grandfather's next words cut his joy short.
