Darius struggled to make sense of what his grandfather said. He was still yet to overcome the shock of finding the identity of his parents, yet his grandfather had dropped another bomb on him. He wondered how many times he would be surprised before he would be able to take a break.

 

“The Reid Consortium’s heir?” Darius asked.

 

“Yes, you are the Reid Consortium’s heir.” Darius grandfather answered.

 

Darius was shocked once again. As a student of Business Management, he naturally understood what a consortium was. It was safe to say that anyone who claimed to own a consortium was immensely wealthy!

 

What was a consortium? You only qualified to say you owned a consortium when you had more than 50% shares in all the affiliated businesses involved!

 

Darius looked at his grandfather differently. This revelation explained why everything here was so luxurious and why his grandfather butler was able to drive a car as expensive as a Rolls-Royce.

 

However, there was a major flaw with what his grandfather told him. Even if he was the heir to the Reid Consortium, why had he never heard of any company bearing the Reid name? The fact that he was poor didn’t mean that he was ignorant. He knew many of the top companies in the world, and knew some prominent consortiums too. In fact, David Lesley father was even in charge of one of the 5-star restaurants in the Mayflower District.

 

“Grandfather, you said I’m the heir to the Reid Consortium?” Darius asked.

 

“Yes, you are.” His grandfather replied

 

“But how come I’ve never heard of any top companies in the world bearing the Reid name? As a student of Business Management I’ve done a lot of research regarding top companies and I’ve never seen a company bearing the Reid name.”

 

His grandfather however sighed when he heard his grandson’s question. However he didn’t blame him. It was expected, as only the heirs to the Reid Consortium knew how much power and wealth they controlled.

 

His grandfather didn’t answer his question. Instead he stood up and walked over to the mahogany desk where several documents were littered. He picked up two of the documents and walked back to the chair he was seated before. He handed over the documents to Darius before speaking.
