The Consortium’s Heir By Benjamin Chapter 171

Chapter 171

Darius heard the woman’s breathing speed up even more, showing her nervousness. He looked
pleased with himself, and he stood up straighter. “I’m also guessing that she’s quite pretty and has
blond hair. She’s probably also wearing a white lace mask.”

The woman heard this. She wondered how he could tell what her hair was like from this angle and
whether she’d accidentally left a strand behind. She was so focused on this train of thought that she
didn’t register what he’d said about the mask.

By the time she did, it was too late. The curtains before her were suddenly drawn, and her mind went
blank.

It was good that Darius had prepared for this situation–the woman let go of the window and started
falling from the twenty–eighth floor.

Fortunately for her, Darius caught her and dragged her back up into the office. The sudden rippling of
his muscles made his brand–new shirt tear open.

When the woman fell to the floor, her chest pressed against his bare arm, and her top was extremely
low- cut. She learned this trick through her experience as a thief–if she were to get caught, she could
pretend to be someone’s lover and buy herself some time to escape. It had worked like magic in the
past.

However, she never expected to actually have physical contact with anyone. She was quick on her feet
and learned how to run away as quickly as possible. This was why it had never occurred to her that
something like this could happen. Now, she felt both angry and sad.



Someone had touched her where they weren’t supposed to, and it was only right for her to give them a
tight slap in return. Unfortunately, this wasn’t something she could do at the moment because Darius
was the one who’d saved her from falling to her death.

There was no way she could treat her savior like that. She tried to think of her next move.

To Darius, however, the woman was probably so terrified that she didn’t know what to say. When he
saw how dazed she was, he said, “So, what do you think? I’m a pretty good guesser, aren’t I?”

An ugly look crept onto the woman’s face because he was right. She couldn’t accept it and didn’t know
what to say.

Darius continued, “Since you don’t know where to start, I’ll go first. You took the plaque in my office,
right? Your first move should’ve been to remove it from your pocket.”

The woman didn’t know how Darius knew about this. Her fear grew, and she remained silent. Until now,
she still couldn’t understand how he’d caught her.

Of course, there was no way she’d even be able to guess the true reason. Her teacher was from a
mysterious land, and she refused to believe that there was anyone better than her in terms of noticing
and controlling one’s breathing and actions.

When Darius saw that she remained unmoving, he reached a hand toward her pocket.

She tried to dodge him by curling up in a corner, but to no avail He took the golden plaque out of her
pocket and looked down at her.

At the same time, Erin held her phone up to record what was happening.

She said, “I’ve already looked into your background, Doris Gray. We know your modus operandi–you
pretend to be involved with the men around to buy yourself time to escape. After finding out what you



do, we put in place a series of traps to counter your every move. There’s no way you’re going to get
away this time.”

Doris could tell what a hopeless situation she was in. She got to her feet, no longer looking terrified.
She said, “You’re right, and you’re also very smart. In fact, you guys are the smartest people I’ve ever
stolen from. It’s too bad that even the almighty Reid family can’t stop me. I’ve still managed to steal
something from you, and as long as I want to, I can leave with whatever I’ve taken.”

Darius smiled. “You’re absolutely right, but the fact that you’re still standing here before me shows that
your curiosity got the better of you and made you fail.”

Doris had to admit he was right. There was nothing she could say to refute him. She looked at him and
said tentatively, “Since you already know everything and have evidence of me being behind this, you
should get someone to escort me out of here. At least, that’s what everyone else would do.”

He continued to smile, then crossed his arms and listened to her speak.

This was her first time being treated this way in the eighteen years of her life, and she said, “I have to
say that there’s something dangerously charming about you, and it attracts me. And that’s why I’m
going to give you a chance.”

Erin didn’t expect to see yet another woman vying for Darius’s attention right before her.

She couldn’t help but feel bitter, but there was nothing she could do about it.

Darius was both amused and surprised by Doris‘ words. “Are you trying to distract me and catch me off
guard so that you can escape?”

Doris was disappointed. This was the first time a man had ever piqued her interest, and she’d been
blunt with her intentions. He didn’t believe her, though.



He sensed her disappointment, so he said, “There’s no need to be like that. It’s only normal for me to
think that way because of your actions earlier.”

She could sense that he was trying to cheer her up, but it didn’t really help.

Erin could tell what Darius was thinking as well. She said, “Sir, she’s never done something like this
before. Also, the first time she got caught stealing was two years ago, when she was sixteen. She used
this exact same method with her victim at the time, and he accepted it. He even tried to make a move
on ner.”
