Chapter 781
The woman, whose eyes were bloodshot, stared at Darius in despair as she lay on the floor, panting anxiously. All Darius did was smile at her before straightening up. He didn't push her because he knew she didn't have answers to most of his questions. With that thought in mind, he turned and left the office without hesitation. Owen watched him, then sighed and followed him. He told Darius, "Once upon a time, I was also jealous of Professor Plinsky for having such an excellent student. This was before you became my student, of course." Darius slowed down and stopped but didn't say anything. Owen continued, "No matter what happened in the past, know that you've come out on top and become an outstanding person. I hope your attitude toward your education doesn't change in the future."Darius nodded, to which Owen smiled. "Alright, that's all I have to say. Go and do what you have to, but remember to come for class tomorrow." With that, Owen returned to the office, putting his hands behin

After some thought, Darius concluded his current apartment was a little on the smaller side. He figured he probably need a four-story house to accommodate all of them. Though the Dragon Estate was luxurious and provided excellent service, it was a little far from campus. Besides, he was about to start his internship soon and needed to get a new place anyway. At this thought, he sighed.Pearl stood beside him, watching him carefully. "You might've agreed to me moving in with you, but you don't seem to be too happy now."As her words fell, Darius held up a finger and wagged it. "No, you need to get your facts right. I didn't agree to you moving in with me; I only agreed to let you stay in my house. That's all."Pearl blushed at his words, then waved her hands vigorously. "No, that's not what I meant! The words came out wrong."Darius chuckled and said, "Alright, that's enough joking." He put his hands behind his back and exhaled. "My apartment, the Dragon Estate, isn't large enough to

Pearl followed Darius into the realtor's office. His car was luxurious enough to attract attention, so all eyes were on them as they walked in. Almost as soon as they stepped inside, Darius was surrounded by sales girls. "Sir, the units in Zone A are under my care, and it has the best environment in this whole development," said one of them.Another piped up, "Yeah, right! Your units are right beside a stinky sewage line. Have you seen the number of pests around there?" She turned to Darius with a smile. "Now, the units under my care are right next to the neighborhood's management office. You don't have to worry about your safety at all."Darius sighed at the squabbling. He waved a hand and said, "I think I'd like some peace and quiet for now, thanks." Before he could continue, Pearl said, "Our employer has yet to decide which area he's interested in, so we still need to walk around and take a closer look before reporting to him." Darius raised an eyebrow at this, then smiled when th

The man didn't know what Darius meant but knew that his smile was creeping him out. He cried, "I'll have you know that my family's one of the most prominent in Ashweir City. You've humiliated me, and I'm furious right now! Do you want to appease me?"Darius resisted the urge to burst into laughter when he saw the man's forced bravado. He nodded and said, "Of course."The man lifted two fingers. "Firstly, take your foot off me. Secondly, give the beauty beside you to me. Regardless of whatever's happened between you two, I'll still welcome her into my arms!" He looked at Darius. "What say you? Simple enough, right?"Darius' smile widened. "Very simple, in fact. But I'm gonna say no."Floyd Davis stiffened. Then, he roared, "You've crossed the line! Who are you? Tell me your name! I swear I'll make you disappear from Ashweir City!" He wriggled around in agitation.Darius smiled. "I can tell you who I am, but before that, I want you to stop wriggling. It annoys me, and I don't think you

"He's also the Reid family's heir." As the chief bodyguard's words fell, Darius imagined how Floyd would react. Would he continue insulting Darius without a care, or would he refuse to believe the chief bodyguard? To his surprise, Floyd did the one thing he hadn't imagined—he looked at Darius earnestly and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Reid! Everything that happened is my fault!" His gaze turned expectant.Darius' lips twitched as he retracted his foot. Since Floyd had apologized, he could let the matter slide, especially since Floyd hadn't done anything unforgivable. In fact, he'd been quite polite toward the other women. Darius waited for Floyd to scramble to his feet before sitting on one of the nearby couches. "Now, talk to me."Floyd stood before him like a secretary reporting to his boss. Without the slightest hesitation, he said, "It's the chairman of Dream Investment Group. He called me earlier and said you were heading to my realtor's office. He wanted me to cause trouble for you."D

Darius patted Floyd on the shoulder. "You're one of the smarter people I've met recently."Floyd scratched his head and chuckled. "Well, I genuinely respect and admire you. I even went for an interview at West Atlantics Int'l when it was first set up, but I didn't make it through."Darius' lips twitched at this. Since setting up West Atlantics Int'l, he'd met several people who'd scored interviews but failed to get hired. He pushed this thought to the back of his mind and smiled. "Well, now that we've resolved this, there's only one thing I need of you now—get me that business plan."Floyd beamed and immediately turned to leave. After taking a few steps, he turned back and said to the employees who'd been watching the show, "Get the manager. Look at how long the commotion's been going on, yet he isn't even here!" The employees shuddered at the obvious anger in his words, but they couldn't do anything—the manager wasn't around!Floyd frowned when he didn't see anyone budging. No one ma

Obviously, in her eyes, Darius didn't have the money to purchase such an expensive house. Her disdain—or perhaps it was her desire for revenge—even made her forget Floyd's instructions to give Darius a unit for free. Although Darius would've ultimately paid for it, he didn't appreciate the sales girl's attitude. He narrowed his eyes in displeasure but didn't do anything. Instead, he nodded and said, "You can continue showing me the other units."The sales girl frowned and snorted. "You're such a funny guy, sir. We need to know what you're looking for before we can show anything to you. Otherwise, we'll just end up in this very situation where I show you a house worth three hundred million, though you obviously can't afford it. It's a waste of my time, and I, Alexis Brenner, refuse to do that."Pearl frowned at this. "If my memory serves me right, your boss told you to give Darius any unit he wanted for free."Alexis stared blankly at her for a few seconds, then quickly regained her co

The employees whispered among themselves at Darius' words. He smirked and crossed his arms, leaning against a table leisurely. Alexis couldn't take it anymore. She shrieked, "Listen up, Darius!" She turned to face her colleagues before continuing, "Our manager promised to marry me, so you should all think carefully about how you treat me!"Darius raised an eyebrow at this. He didn't believe the manager's words for a second but couldn't control what these employees thought. To his surprise, they all believed Alexis. He frowned, trying to think of a way to end this farce, when a young woman dressed in a janitor's uniform said in a small voice, "I can give it a shot."When she stepped forward, Darius suddenly sensed overwhelming fear in Alexis. She screeched, "What are you doing? What do you know? You're nothing but a janitor, so do what you were hired to do! This has nothing to do with you!"Darius crossed his arms and watched her scornfully. "I think everyone can sense how terrified yo

"She's a poor thing, and I really want to help her. What can I do for her?" Pearl said. Darius smiled at this and glanced at the janitor, whose face was red as tears rolled down her cheeks.As Pearl approached her, she dropped to her knees and grabbed Pearl's sleeve, crying, "I can't thank you enough for your offer, but that's not what I need help with. I…I wanted to ask whether you could help with my brother's medical fees. My parents are the ones who should be dealing with it, but…" She trailed off and started sobbing.At the mention of medical fees, Pearl nodded without hesitation. "Of course, I can. Give me your bank account number; I'll transfer the money to you within ten minutes."The janitor's eyes shone before thanking Pearl and Darius profusely. "Thank you both for your help! If my brother makes it out of the operating theater, I'll carve a statue of both of you and put it on his bedside table so he'll never forget about you!"Darius' lips twitched at this. This was the wors

Darcy smiled as she spoke. It looked like one couldn't believe everything they heard—Darius could purchase a house worth three hundred million, yet rumor had it he was living in squalor.Darius seemed to know what she was thinking and rubbed his nose awkwardly. It looked like he had yet to return to the Reid family when Darcy was forced to drop out temporarily, so her impression of him was still stuck on him being poor. He shook his head and smiled but didn't say anything. Darcy led them to the person who handled the signing of contracts. She was waiting for them and rubbing her hands expectantly. When she saw Darius, she smiled brightly, almost revealing all her teeth.Darius found this amusing and couldn't help smiling faintly. He sat down and put his credit card on the table. When he pulled his credit card out, he heard the woman standing opposite him gulp. At the same time, her eyes practically glowed as she gazed at him. Darius shook his head. "Alright, hand me the contract so I
