The Consortium’s Heir by Benjamin_Jnr

Chapter 58

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 largely came from the benefits she would receive if she signed the

contract.

A monthly salary of $10 million, an already furbished apartment, a car of her choosing, and various

bonuses and add-ons! It was understandable why Erin was so shocked. Even her former job as the vice

president of Numbers Int’l didn’t pay her so much money!!

Erin looked at Darius warily; as for him to offer her such a job meant that all the companies that were

listed in the documents belonged to him. Just how powerful was he that he was able to obtain ownership

of these companies? She couldn’t help but shiver. His identity was too scary.

“I’m sure you have gone over the details by now. I cannot certainly handle all these by myself, which is

why I need you to assist me.” Darius said.

Erin looked at him even more warily. Since he was so rich and powerful, he would surely be able to get

anybody he wanted to work for him. Why did he have to be bent on making her work for him? There was

surely more talented people than her that he could choose, so why her?

Erin however did not voice her complaint out. She was planning on rejecting the job offer before, but not

anymore. Where else would she find a job that paid so much money? This was a very great opportunity

for her. She would be insane to miss out on this. She still had her ailing parents to take care of after all.

“I await your response.” Darius reminded Erin.

Erin looked up from the documents before smiling at him. “It’ll be my pleasure to work for you, Mr. Reid.”

Erin answered. This was her ticket to stardom. Although she didn’t know what aspect of her intrigued

Darius, she was glad to have caught the attention of a big shot. She vowed to dedicate herself to fulfilling

all of his demands until he regarded her as indispensable to him.

Darius was very satisfied with her response. After a series of ups and downs, he finally got himself a

capable assistant. It was very fortunate as he was resuming lectures the next day. With Erin at the wheel,

he could now manage to focus on his education. He needed his degree

after all.

“Alright. Please sign the contract so that we can get started right away.” Darius said.

Erin was confused about what he meant, but signed the contract anyway. She passed the contract to

Darius after signing it. Darius then put his own signature on the contract before putting the documents

away.

“Get dressed. Your clothes are in the wardrobe. They got stained yesterday so I ordered for them to be

washed and repackaged.” Darius said before exiting the room.

Erin sighed and walked over the luxurious wardrobe. True to his words her clothes looked like they were

just bought from a clothing store.

She wore her black gown and styled her white hair. When she took a look in the mirror after she was

done, she blushed lightly.

For a 27 year old, she was incredibly stunning. Her white hair made her look more like a movie star and

not an office worker. She had flawless skin and an hourglass figure. Coupled with the sexy black gown

she wore, she was sure to turn heads wherever she went.

Not long after, the door opened and Darius walked in. He was dressed in casual wears, but his tall and

muscular figure with his attractive features made him stand out.

Together the duo made their way to Darius’ private garage. When Erin saw Darius’ two sports cars, she

was stunned.

They looked so expensive!

She was sure that she would have to work for a whole year at Numbers Int’l before she could afford such

a car.

Darius got into his Lamborghini, and Erin did the same. Darius then sped out of his garage. After driving

for over twenty minutes, he parked neatly at a store. It was a high rated clothing store, one that not just

anyone could enter. As they had high price tags on most of their clothes, it was mainly reserved for the

wealthy.

The people at the store were all shocked when they saw the Lamborghini drive in. It was by far the most

expensive car to visit the store that day.

They were even more shocked when both Darius and Erin alighted from the vehicle. “Is he a movie star?

He’s so handsome!”

“Look at the lady with him too. They must both be movie stars!”

“Yeah. Otherwise how would they be able to afford such an expensive car?”

Erin was not used to such attention as she rarely had to deal with crowds, so she subconsciously

cowered behind Darius. Darius thought nothing of it. He had been poor since when he was young,

therefore he was already used to people pointing fingers at him. Now that he was rich, the only thing that

changed that the expressions on their faces changed from disgust and shun to admiration and envy.

Darius led Erin into the store and started picking out various outfits for her. He had looked into her

background and knew that she had sold inajority of her properties to have some little cash, therefore she

didn’t have much outfits left.

Erin was very touched by his gesture. She knew that everything in this store was very costly, but Darius

still brought her here to shop. It was a very heartwarming gesture. She vowed once again to do her very

best in her work

Darius, unaware of the loyalty his action just earned him continued picking out various outfits. As his

personal assistant, he couldn’t allow her to be dressed in subpar outfits. It would only dent the image he

had built for himself.

Thirty minutes went by with Darius picking out outfits. Erin joined in from time to time to give her input on

his choices. They finally finished selecting various outfits and went to the counter to pay.
