The Consortium's Heir The Consortium’s Heir By Benjamin Chapter 182

Chapter 182

"You know, that reminds me-I was there when it happened. Pearl definitely detested Darius, but here
she is, coming to university with him. It must be because of his sudden wealth."

"I would never have expected her to be someone like that. She's the third prettiest woman in our
university!”

Aman standing silently nearby suddenly said, "I have a different point of view. If even someone like
Pearl's starting to hang around him, just think about how rich he really is!"

Darius stopped walking and put a hand in his pocket. An ugly look crept onto his face. He didn’t
understand why Pearl had fled earlier, but he now did. Once rumors started flying around about them, it
wouldn't be an easy feat to prove their innocence.

However, the matter with the Gillette family had yet to be resolved. He couldn't act like he didn't know
what was going on. So, he amplify his voice to the point that everyone present could hear him. “I’m
chasing Pearl.

We're not officially together yet, but I hope you don't spread misinformation."

After that, he turned and left without a care. As for the three guys that had been speaking earlier... they
were left squatting on the ground with their hands clapped over their ears, looking ashen. They’d never
heard such a deafening sound before. Even now, their ears were ringing. It was as if they were
suddenly caught in a vacuum.

Actually Pearl didn't leave. She was waiting for her grades. So, she heard Darius utter words she never
thought she’d hear him say. He was chasing her? In her wildest dreams, perhaps. Of course, she knew
he was only saying that to protect her image so the other students wouldn't think badly of her. The



meaning behind his gesture only moved her more. Now, he would be the subject of their gossip, which
he didn't seem to think about.

She was about to tell Darius this when he said, "There's no need to worry about whatever's going
through your mind right now. It doesn't bother me, and these things won't affect me. You're different,
though."

Pearl’s mind went blank after listening to his words. She didn’t know how this would affect her and
looked at him in confusion.

His expression was gentle as he said, “It's nothing much, really. It's just that all others chasing you will
disappear because of me."

Pearl looked happy. She wanted to tell him that was exactly what she wanted, but he didn't give her a
chance to speak. "If anyone's willing to treat you as well as they used to under such circumstances,
you can actually consider accepting them.”

She didn't expect Darius to say this and was taken aback, unable to speak. On the other hand, Darius
had already turned and left. All she could do was stare at his retreating figure. She didn't say anything
to keep him here because she could tell he wasn't too happy already.

When she saw him like that, she suddenly found it hard to breathe again, and her expression turned
cold. It was only then that she realized she truly had feelings for him.

At this moment, Darius was already reaching the classroom. There were three minutes left till class
started, and he had plenty of time to get there. As he thought about this, he continued to walk to the
classroom.

By the time he got there, most people were already there. However, no one was sitting in the front row
because today was the day the professors would speak to them about their dissertations. He walked to



the front row and picked a seat that was right in the center. This showed how confident he was at the
top of his class!

He had just arranged his books when the bell rang. He looked up at his professor, as he always did.
This time, however, the professor looked furious. Of course, this was the only thing the other students
could see.

He could sense that the professor’s anger was faked. Guilt and regret were concealed under the rage,
which was made even more obvious when his gaze landed on Darius. At this point, Darius started to
suspect something was up. He even had an idea of what would happen next.

When the bell stopped ringing, the professor slammed his laptop on the desk, and the students
watched with bated breath.

"Darius Reid, stand up and answer my question.”

Although Darius had already expected this to happen, he still didn't feel too comfortable. He got to his
feet and smiled politely despite the professor's bad attitude. "It’s been a while, Professor Plinsky. How
are you doing?"

After Darius said this, he could sense Professor Plinsky’s guilt increasing. However, it was still well-
concealed. "Darius, I always thought of you as an exemplary student. I never expected you to
plagiarize someone else's work! I read the paper that you submitted in the wee hours of the morning
many years ago. Though you changed some of the data, there's no denying that you still committed
plagiarism."

Darius frowned. Now, he'd figured out what was going on.



Ward Plinsky was an outstanding professor, and he was very strict when it came to anything scholarly.
In the past, when Darius couldn't turn up for class because he had to work, Ward would never penalize
him. He would even send him the relevant materials to catch up. All of this only made what was
happening at the moment even weirder.

Everyone gasped and started whispering among themselves.

"My God! I can’t believe Darius actually plagiarized someone's work! He's always been at the top of the
class.”

"I bet it's because he's starting to neglect his studies now that he's rich. When he was poor, he was
always very punctual for class. Once he became rich, he started playing hooky.”

"Money really does change people. Wait, I'm rich too.” This elicited laughter from the people sitting
nearby.

Darius ignored their laughter, focusing his attention on Ward. "Professor Plinsky, can we talk about this
in your office after class?”

He believed Ward had probably encountered something he couldn't resolve, so he was left with no
choice. Darius felt that he could probably give him a hand.

If Ward agreed to his request, he could act as if nothing had happened. However, Ward turned him
down. ‘There's nothing to argue about when it comes to plagiarism. The truth is what it is.”

Darius noticed that he couldn't look him in the eye as he said this
