Chapter 57
Erin looked at Darius with confusion displayed on her face. ‘Work for him?’ She didn’t even know who he was! As a matter of fact, she didn’t know how she got here. While she was still trying to figure out where the heck she was, someone appeared and without even offering an explanation, he candidly asked her to work for him. Erin wanted to curse at him, but considering the fact that she didn’t know him, and neither did she know this place, she withheld her curses. The man could be very dangerous and lash out at her if she misbehaved. The only reason she was a bit calm was because she was sure that the man bore no resemblance to the duo who wanted to rape her. Although it was a bit dark at the time of the assault, she still remembered the faces of the two men clearly. “Excuse me sir, but I don’t even know you, neither do I know what you do for a living. I don’t even know how I got here. How on earth am I supposed to answer your question?” Erin replied in an exasperated voice. Dar

When he saw her response, Darius smiled triumphantly. It was exactly as he had predicted. He inquired once more, this time in a confident tone.“So Erin Chrysalis, what do you think about working for me?”Erin didn’t answer him immediately. She was still stunned by the details in the documents and the contract offer that he offered. The documents contained the list of several companies that were globally acknowledged. As a former vice president of Numbers Int’l, she naturally knew several of the companies mentioned in the documents. The least of the companies in the documents was worth at least $30 billion, which was an astronomical sum! Even the nemesis of Numbers Int’l, Nix Inc. was listed in the documents too. Although she was extremely shocked by the companies listed in the documents, her shock reached a new high when she read the contract details. The contract stated that she was to help manage the several companies that were listed in the documents. However, her shock largel

“Erin! Is that you?!” Darius and Erin both turned to the direction of the voice. Erin in particular was surprised when she heard her name. The voice of the person sounded very familiar to her. She wondered who the person who called her name was. Soon enough the person came into their line of sight. Erin face instantly morphed from one of surprise to irritation when she saw the person. It was none other than her college classmate, Vanessa Floyd. Vanessa and Erin both attended a highly rated college in their district. Although it was a far cry from universities like Kingston University, which Darius attended, it was still a top university. Vanessa and Erin were both regarded as the goddesses of their college. Not only were they incredibly beautiful, they were also very brilliant book wise, as they came out with top results after every exam. However, despite being worshipped by both students and lecturers in the college alike, the two did not get along with each other. Vanessa most e

The rest of the afternoon was spent with Darius buying several things he deemed necessary for Erin.He contacted the Elle; the manager of Dragon Lord’s Imperial Residence and instructed her to direct him to a suitable apartment. Soon enough, Darius phone pinged signaling the arrival of the message. Darius took a quick glance at it before driving to the apartment.The apartment was a two hour drive from Darius residence. It was very luxurious and stylish. Although it was not as classy as Darius’ apartment, it had everything that Erin needed.Erin’s jaw dropped in shock when the agent in charge of handling the house told them the price for the apartment. It was an astronomical sum of $200 million! It was completely ridiculous.She was about to persuade Darius to look for a cheaper apartment for her when the agent’s phone pinged loudly.The agent showed the message to the duo, confirming that the transaction was a succ

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. 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 th

The walk to his friends’ location was a short one. After walking for five minutes, he got to his friends’ location. When he was still a short distance away from his destination, he caught sight of Marcus and Greg discussing. A smile unknowingly crept up on his face at the sight of his two friends. Delighted, he increased his pace and walked up to them. “Darius!” Greg exclaimed when he saw Darius. He was not present the time Marcus had a phone call with Darius; therefore he had no idea that Darius decided to hang out with them. It was pleasant surprise for him to see Darius. “What’s up Greg?” Darius replied; smiling heartily as he gave Greg a bro hug. “I’ve been alright man. We missed you. Where have you been?” Greg asked as he hugged Darius. “I’ve been really busy these past few days, but don’t worry. I’m free now. We can hangout for a while.” Darius replied pleasantly. Just as Greg was about to reply Darius, Rudd appeared in their line of sight and started walking towards them. H

A frown crept onto Darius’ face the moment he heard her scream on the other end of the phone. He didn’t need to be told that Helen was in danger. The last time they met was at the charity gala, and apart from the light conversation he had with her before the auction, he hadn’t spoken with her again. “Where are you now?” Darius asked calmly. He knew that getting her location was of paramount importance. Anything else could take back seat in the face of her location. “I’m at the VIP section, room 38 of HKN Diamond Hotel.” Helen replied in a shaky voice. “Please come fast. I’m in-” Before Helen could complete her sentence, the phone call disconnected. Darius gripped his phone tightly before releasing his grip. He let out a short breath before speeding out of the parking lot. As he drove at top speed, he connected his phone to the Bluetooth system of his car and made a phone call. The call rang once before the person picked up. “Where is HKN Diamond Hotel?” Darius asked curtly, goin

Luke was instantly intimidated by the intruder’s icy demeanor. Even still, he managed to regain his composure. He could not allow himself to be intimidated by the intruder. “What do you think you’re doing now?” Kris asked angrily, glaring at the intruder as he did so. Who gave him the keys to get inside the room in the first place? He had ruined the fun with his arrival just when Luke was getting to the good part. Darius was naturally the intruder. He had driven like a mad man on his way here, completely ignoring the traffic laws that were set in place in the country. If it weren’t for the fact that his car had a customized license plate, he would have had scores of traffic vehicles on his tail and even probably spend the night in a police cell. When he got here, he charged straight to the Manager’s office. Erin had done her job flawlessly and convinced the Manager to hand over the key to Darius when he arrived. The Manager had refused at first, but once he heard that the person de
