The Consortium’s Heir By Benjamin Chapter 157

Chapter 157

The manager cautiously shot a sideways smirk at Darius before lowering her head. “My apologies, but I
can’t recognize the brand of his clothes as it doesn’t seem well known. However, his clothes do look
expensive.”

Darius could tell the former’s tone was full of mockery. That was when a confident voice said on the
other end of the call, “If an article of clothing has no brand, it must be a custom piece. I doubt someone
that capable would show up at our casino. Likewise, there’s no way this poor little boy would ever be
acquainted with someone so wealthy.”

The situation seemed like a joke to Darius, who kept silent the entire time and kept his hands in his
pockets. Even so, his frosty eyes sent chills down everyone’s spines. Darius eventually reached out to
knock on the table twice before retorting, “Aren’t I supposed to grant your business more wealth
through my patronage? Why did no one welcome me? Instead, you left me out here alone. Is this how
your fancy casino treats its customers?”

Upon hearing his words, the person on the call flew into a rage and thundered, “Listen here, you little
punk! Our casino would never allow you, someone impersonating a member of the Reid family, through
our doors! As for your friend, you can only save him after putting the five million dollars on this table.”

Darius’ hands returned to his pockets as his eyes narrowed. “What are you talking about?”

He did not believe the words of the person on the phone. After all, he knew Rudd had excellent control
over things, so it did not make sense that the latter would have such a massive funding gap.

Darius’ rage was growing at that point. Even so, he could not do anything since he had yet to see Rudd
in person. Thus, he flashed them a blank look while asking, “How did he end up owing you this
amount?”



Roaring laughter came from the phone right then. Even the manager was chuckling.

Meanwhile, Darius was the only one whose expression did not change.

Moments passed before the manager placed the handset back onto the telephone, ending the call.

Only then did Darius raise his head to meet the manager’s gaze.

The latter smirked. “You’re already at our casino. Why else do you think your friend owes us money?”

As Darius had expected, the other party’s reason was the first thing he ruled out. He was unfazed since
he knew such an excuse was a lie-Rudd would never gamble. With that in mind, his eyes narrowed to
slits as he slammed the table. “If what you said is true, you should accept my patronage, not refuse it!”

The manager acted against what she truly felt, chuckling at Darius. “Indeed. Unfortunately, we don’t
believe you. We think you’re lying and pretending to be rich. While speaking, her eyes pierced Darius
like blades, revealing her disdain toward him.

“So that means you guys are after a life today, not money, huh?” Darius asked plainly before raising
three fingers. “I’ll give you till the count of three to reconsider.”

His declaration rang out. It was so loud that everyone within nine feet of the casino entrance heard his
words, causing the scene to plummet into silence.

Never had the manager witnessed this before. The utter stillness around them meant she needed to
handle the matter well. Otherwise, there was no way she could bear the consequences. Thus, she
looked over at Darius, her gaze hardening with determination. “We run a casino. All we want is money.”
—

Seconds of silence passed, and she added firmly, “The portion that is owed to us, of course.” Darius
nodded, “Time’s up. That’s the final count, and I’ve already been very patient with you.”



That was when the manager’s gaze settled onto Darius’ wrist, and her eyes instantly lit up. She knew
the watch on his wrist was a limited-edition piece. It was worth 50 million dollars, and only ten existed
worldwide. Those facts alone indicated Darius’ wealth and status.

Panic overtook the manager’s senses at that instant. She began to fear the consequences of her
actions earlier. After all, a man like Darius was not someone she could afford to cross.

Sadly, her behavior had utterly pissed off the young and handsome magnate before her.

Her phone then rang.

When the manager heard who was on the other end of the line, her every muscle trembled with fear.
Saliva pooled in her mouth, causing her to purse her lips and frequently gulp. hoping to drain all the
fluids. All she could do was stay on the phone call.

The voice from the other end communicated clearly as before. “I’ve seen the man’s watch. Check his
bank card now. If he has enough funds to gamble here, let him in and get someone to keep him
company all night. Should he refuse to let you check it, or if he doesn’t have enough funds, kick him out
at once.”

With that, the caller abruptly hung up.

Darius had overheard the entire exchange and spoke up before the manager could. “I heard your
superior’s request, but I still have a question.”

The manager began questioning the truth behind Darius’ words after seeing how cooperative he was.
Still, she could not do anything about her doubts, so she maintained her usual smile.

Contrarily, there was something more menacing in Darius’ expression. “I’m curious. What will happen
after you verify my identity? What’s the price you’ll pay if I turn out to be who I say I am?”



By that point, the manager was dumbfounded. No one had ever spoken this rudely toward her, much
less threatened her. Regardless of how she felt, she knew there was only one option, as all eyes were
on her.

The manager looked up at Darius, certainty filling her gaze. “I’ll remove your friend’s debt entirely on
behalf of the casino. Also, I’ll give you five million dollars’ worth of betting chips as a gift to use in the
casino.”

“I want five million in cash.” Not a trace of hesitation came from Darius, whose hands were still in his
pockets. “Your demands are going a little too far,” said the manager, her face contorting with rage. “I
don’t think I’m going out of line compared to my friend, who managed to rack up a debt worth five
million dollars at a casino, despite never gambling in his life and having great discipline.” The manager
noticed how much Darius was praising Rudd. Given the onlooking crowd that seemed to believe
Darius, the manager had no choice but to nod. “I accept your demands.”

Moments of silence passed. The manager became insecure, thinking her response did not have the
frightening effect she wanted. Hence, she added, “Our casino has operated for a hundred years! We’ve
never been wrong at evaluating others’ wealth!”

Subsequently, she reached out to Darius. The fear she felt earlier vanished as she stated loudly,
“Please hand me your bank card at once. I’m a very busy person.”

The onlookers around them then snapped to their senses and realized where they were. A few of them
even began discussing the matter at hand.

“Does this guy even have a bank card to hand over?”

“I think I saw him taking out a black toy card -”



Darius’ piercing gaze suddenly snapped over to the last person that spoke. That made the person
choke on his words. It was as though an invisible rope had tightened around his neck.
