The Consortium’s Heir chapter 61
Chapter 61 With the issue of his personal assistant sorted out, Darius could finally rest easy. Now he
wouldn’t have to worry about his workload. The only thing he needed to do was sign the important
documents that needed his signature and leave the rest to Erin. His sleep that night was a peaceful
one.
The next morning Darius woke up earlier than he usually did. His one week leave the university granted
him for being the highest contributor at the charity gala was finally over, and he was resuming school
today. 1
As he prepared for school, Darius wondered how his classmates would behave when they saw him
now. He had checked the class main chat on his messaging app a few times so that he could be up to
date with the happenings at school. During the few times he checked, he saw that they had mentioned
him a lot of times.
The events at the charity gala had spread to the majority of the student body. Details of how Darius
arrived in a very fancy sports car, outbid both Pearl and David and became the highest contributor in
the charity gala had spread so much that there were now different and exaggerated rumors in tandem
with the truth.
There were also several rumors about Darius himself. As someone who was known by the student
body to be a very poor student, his sudden elevation to one of the richest students in the university was
very shocking. In all honesty, it was quite unbelievable.
There were many speculations about how he suddenly became so rich. Some said that he had gotten a
high paying job; after all he was quite brilliant, while others said that he had gotten a rich woman to
sponsor him by offering her special services. This was also quite believable, as Darius was incredibly
good looking and attractive.
There were also other bizarre rumors and speculations, but they were all off the mark. Despite the
rumors and speculations, there was no changing the fact that Darius Reid was no longer a pauper.
Darius took his shower and had his breakfast before exiting his apartment. On his way down to his
private garage, he did not forget to send his grandfather a message, informing him that he had finally
gotten an assistant to help him out. After confirming the message had been sent, he got into his Bugatti
and drove off. The drive to the university was a quick one. After thirty minutes, he parked his car neatly
at a parking space close to where his lectures were being held. It was not that he didn’t want to drive
his car to the lecture hall. He just didn’t want to deal with the crowd that such a conspicuous car would
gather at the moment. He was already running late for class, and he arriving in such a fancy car would
inevitably cause a delay that might result in him missing the class.
The lecture hall was only a two minute walk from the parking lot, so Darius was sure that he would be
able to make it in time before the lecture started.
As he walked, several people turned to look at him. Darius looked completely different from his past
self; therefore they couldn’t tell where they had seen him before. Darius noted their stares but paid
them no heed. When he got to the lecture hall, the rowdy classroom instantly fell quiet. Unlike the
onlookers Darius met on his short walk to the lecture
hall, his classmates were different, as they instantly recognized him at once.
Unlike before when they would start gossiping and making snide remarks about Darius, it wasn’t the
case this time. They all stared at Darius apprehensively. His status had been greatly elevated in their
eyes, so they knew that they had to tread carefully with him now. Darius didn’t bother about it as he had
long gotten used to receiving stares. When he was still a pauper, he had no friends among his
classmates. They all avoided him because he was poor. Now that he was rich, they still avoided him,
but for the opposite reason now. They found it hard to approach him now that he was wealthy for fear
of offending him.
Darius walked confidently to his seat and sat down. Their wariness would only last a while. Soon
enough, they would get over their shyness and start wanting to be his friend not because they liked
him, but because of the benefits they could get from being his friend. It was how life was.
The lecturer came in at that moment, signaling the start of the class. Everyone finally stopped stealing
glances and focused on the lecture. As intriguing as Darius’ rise to wealth was, the lecture still took
priority over him. Darius would not hand them certificates after all.
The rest of the school hours passed peacefully. Soon enough, it was 1 pm, the time his lectures for the
day ended. Darius was certainly pleased with how the day went. He was on his way to the parking lot
when his phone abruptly rang. He checked the caller ID and saw that it was Marcus, his former
roommate and friend who was demanding a video call. A warm smile appeared on Darius’ face before
he accepted the call.
“Hello Darius!” Marcus voice sounded excitedly from the other end of the phone.
“Hello Marcus!” Darius replied just as excitedly as Marcus.
“It’s been a while man! I’m sure you’ve forgotten about us! You’ve been so busy heh? No more time for
US. Is that it?” Marcus asked playfully, but Darius could hear the undertone of hurt in his voice.
Darius sighed inwardly. Indeed he had been so busy the past week that he completely forgot about
everything else. The only things that were on his mind were his work and getting a personal assistant,
therefore he felt very guilty when he heard Marcus’ accusation.
“Of course not. How could I forget about you?” Darius denied immediately.”
“I’ve just been very busy this past week, which was why I was unable to call or text. I’ll make it up to
you guys today. I promise.” Darius pleaded.
“How would you do that? Oh I see that you are close to your department building. Did you attend
classes today?” Marcus asked.
“Yes I did. Didn’t I promise to take you all out for a meal? Well I’m very free now. What about you?”
Darius asked.
“Oh. I’m free now. Rudd and Greg are still busy, but they will be done in a few minutes. We can meet
up and have that meal today.” Marcus affirmed.
“Alright. Wait for me there. I’ll come meet you now.” Darius said.
“Okay. We’ll be waiting.” Marcus replied happily before disconnecting the call. Darius smiled warmly for
a brief moment. He thought about driving his car to meet them, but
decided against it when he remembered that his car was a sports car with only two seats. There were
three of them, including him making it four. There was no way they would be able to fit into his car.
Darius sighed. He had indeed made a slight blunder when choosing his cars. Out of excitement, he had
forgotten that a situation like now might come up. He might have to get another car that was very
convenient and spacious soon. After all, he couldn’t keep driving his fancy sport cars to every
destination he went. With that thought, he turned and began walking toward his three closest friends.
