The Consortium’s Heir by Benjamin_Jnr

Chapter 99

“West Atlantics Int’l?” The figure asked domineeringly.

Beads of sweat formed on Alan’s head as the figure asked. His aura was just too overwhelming, and

Alan felt like he had been submerged in a bucket of ice.

“Y-yes” Alan stuttered

There another was a brief moment of silence, and the figure withdrew his suffocating aura before he

finally spoke up

“Tell me more about this company”

Alan heaved a sigh of relief after the figure withdrew his aura before proceeding to tell the figure all the

details he knew about West Atlantics Int’l.

As Alan spoke, the figure listened with rapt attention, and by the time Alan was done speaking, there

was an indiscernible smirk on his lips.

“Interesting.” The figure commented

According to Alan, West Atlantics Int’l was a new investment company based in Capital city, and the

sole chairman was a young man in his twenties who was acquainted with Tyrell Sanders of the

Sanders Group

Perhaps, the young man had a very impressive background, which was why he could ignore the

Gillette Group and save the Chamberlains Corporation,

However, he was still too naive.

“Find another business group and give them your full support. Our plan remains the same.” The figure

ordered with a note of finality.

“Certainly sir!” Alan exclaimed enthusiastically

“As for West Atlantics Int’l, leave them to me.” The figure said cynically,

Alan nodded timidly at his words.

“You can leave now.” The figure said nonchalantly

“Yes sir!” Alan said fearfully before scurrying away from the room in haste. It was only when he was far

from the room that he breathed out a sigh of relief.

The figure was far too scary

Meanwhile, after Alan left, the figure grinned widely before speaking out.

“Investigate this young man from West Atlantics Int’l. The figure ordered

It was stranoe because there was no one in the room at first glance. So, who was the figure conversing

with?

“As you wish.” A hoarse voice sounded out of nowhere.

Just as the voice sounded, the shadows in the room shifted significantly and a figure cloaked wholly in

black appeared in front of the mysterious persona.

“Don’t hurt him yet. It will be troublesome if he is part of them. I just need you to monitor him.” The

mysterious persona said.

“As you wish.” The figure cloaked in black replied

“Good That is all Report back to me in two days.” The mysterious persona concluded.

This time there was no response from the cloaked figure, and the figure flickered blurrily before

disappearing from sight

The mysterious persona smiled sardonically. If the young man was indeed part of them, then he would

consider taking another decision

if he wasn’t then he would kill him.

[Reid Mansion

Inside the extremely luxurious Reid mansion, James Reid, Darius’ grandfather was inside his study

room,

On the brown mahogany desk in the study room, several picture albums lay on the table In James Reid

hands was another picture album.

The picture album had pictures of Tristan Reid, his son, his daughter-in-law, and Darius Reid, his

grandson, seventeen years ago. The three of them had beautiful smiles on their faces, and were

extremely happy

Unfortunately, both his son and his daughter-in-law were no longer alive, and he lost his grandson for

over sixteen years. Luckily, after years of fruitless search, he was finally able to meet his grandson

again

As he stared at the picture, his gaze slowly turned cold. Although the accident happened a long time

ago. it was still very fresh in his mind, as it was a traumatizing experience for him.

The autopsy and investigation said they died from a car crash, but James didn’t believe it. He knew that

there was more to it than met the eye

According to the police, the car malfunctioned, causing their accident, but it was quite unbelievable

because the Reid mansion’s staff always made sure that the cars were well maintained

Therefore, how could a malfunction be the cause of the crash?

James Reid in his anger and bitterness had expended a lot of resources to search for the truth behind

the accident for years, but he was unable to find anything related to the incident

This astounded James because the Reid consortium was an influential and wealthy conglomerate in S

country, worth trillions of dollars. The fact that they couldn’t find anything even after searching for years

meant that the people involved were no less powerful than them 1

If his speculations were true, then he needed to tread very carefully around them. One wrong step

could prove to be very costly for him,

While he was still contemplating about this issue, there was a knock on the door, jolting him out of his

reverie

“Come in,” James called out

The door opened slowly and Bruce walked in with a pile of documents in his hands.

“This is the report about the progress of West Atlantics Int’l” Bruce said politely as he handed over the

report to James

James collected the report and read through it. He had directed Bruce to keep track of West Atlantics

International’s progress and report back to him. He needed to see if his grandson could lead the entire

Reid consortium in his absence, because what he had shown him about the Reid consortium was only

the tip of the iceberg 1

By the time he was done with reading the report, there was a solemn gaze on his face.
