Chapter 84
(Dragon Estate, Dragon Lord‘s Imperial Residence)
Darius woke up later than usual. He had worked late into the morning the previous day, which was the reason he woke up later than usual. Fortunately, he was able to complete all of his work because of his all nighter.
By the time he woke up, it was already mid noon. He then performed his morning routines which included his martial arts and meditated.
As Darius practiced his martial arts, he noticed that his moves were even more fluid than before. It was as if they got better and more powerful with each practice routine, leaving Darius utterly confused.
He had no idea that his grandfather had used an ancient potion to heal him of his injuries, and it was the golden potion that improved his physical prowess and made his martial arts moves stronger and more powerful than before.
Darius didn‘t think much about it, and took a quick shower when he was done with practicing his martial arts.
IS
He was having his breakfast when his phone rang. He checked the caller ID and saw that it was Bruce. He then answered the call.
“Hello young master Reid.” Bruce said respectfully.
“Hello Bruce.” Darius answered.
“I‘m calling to remind you about the business gathering in Ashville city. Do you need me to send someone to pick you up?” Bruce asked politely.
“No. I’ll be attending on my own.” Darius replied. “Thank you for your worry though.”
“Certainly young master Reid.” Bruce answered bitterly. He could only accept his Darius‘ decision.
Darius then disconnected the phone call. He knew that Bruce was probably following the orders of his grandfather, but if he agreed to Bruce‘s request, then his grandfather would go way over the top, and it was something that Darius didn‘t want.
He was still eating his breakfast when another call came in. This time around it was from Erin, his personal assistant. Darius answered the call immediately. They conversed for some minutes before Darius disconnected the phone call.
The reason Erin called was because of a document Darius overlooked. Darius asked her to e mail the document to him. He was about to disconnect the phone call when something flashed
in his mind.
“Wow! It‘s really him! It‘s Mr. William Jung of the Jung Group in the flesh!” an excited voice exclaimed. It wasn‘t only him that recognized William Jung, because as soon as he alighted from the car, several voices cheered loudly. The journalists and reporters all started taking pictures at a rapid rate, since it wasn‘t every day they saw wealthy and prominent figures like William Jung
As he walked, a flag representing his status as a VIP was raised. Every VIP who attended was prepared to show something off to present their identity and business.
SHOW
William Jung was all smiles as he waved to the crowd under the protection of two bodyguards, before stepping past the hotel lavish doors.
After his arrival, several other VIPs which included celebrities as well started making their appearance.
Numerous luxury cars flooded the scene, with a lot of top businessmen and celebrities already present. By this time, everybody was bubbling with excitement. The journalists and reporters were particularly busy taking pictures. After all, most of the VIPs were flaunting their luxury cars and wealth to show how powerful and wealthy they were; and as how they arrived would be published in the papers the next day, none of them wanted to look inferior to anyone.
The crowd‘s excitement seemed to suddenly escalate as a very dazzling sports car, unlike any of the previous ones, arrived at the scene.
It was very shocking to say the least. Although most cars present were very luxurious, none were as luxurious and spectacular as this sports car!
While everyone present were still reeling in shock about the car, the doors to the car opened, and a young man alighted from the vehicle.
