David Wyatt : Secret Billionaire Heir 71
David came back to the apartment before the rest of them. Since he was so early, and they were going to be late, he took out the time to prepare some food. When he was done, he ate his own and kept it there to be put in the microwave later. He went into his room and spent hours working on his laptop. He walked back to the kitchen to take a drink, there he found Ethan. Ethan was working on his laptop too, but he barely looked at David. David frowned slightly, he wasn't imagining it, his friend was holding a grudge against him. Despite that gut feeling, he still swallowed his pride and cleared his throat. "What's up, man?" He nodded at him, as he opened the refrigerator. "Hey." Ethan sounded as cold as ice, his voice heavy with reluctance. David also noticed that Ethan was munching cookies and having a soda, he wasn't eating what he prepared for him. "Did you see the pasta I kept in the refrigerator?" David asked, seeing only part of the door was touched. "Not hungry. Dre wou

It was raining so sparingly, that David wasn't in a hurry to get to where he was going. He had a cigarette in his hand, which he smoked as he went, but somehow wasn't quenched by the rainwater. It was a busy evening, the cars honked around and the pedestrians trotted around the street. David walked past people, sometimes avoiding bumping into them by a hair length. He got to Stefanie's studio apartment and he knocked on the door. The rain gave way and started to fall in heavy drops. He tossed his cigarette away and knocked on the door, harder. Hope she wasn't doing anything stupid. Finally, the door opened. Her hair was in a messy bun and her eyes were red from crying too much. Her lips quivered when she saw him and she let herself into his arms. "I'm sorry." She croaked. "I know that Rosie hates me, but it's you I'm more apologetic too." David held her and walked into his house. He shut the door and held her face in his hands. "There's nothing to be sorry for." He smiles a

That wasn't what Nick was expecting at all. He thought it was going to be hard to convince David to give him what he wanted, but David was offering it on a silver platter. He first laughed, he didn't want to even believe that David was serious, and not trying to mess with him. "What is this, some kind of reverse psychology, or some shit?" He chuckled. "Are you messing with me?" "No, I'm not." David stood his ground. "From what I see, we both want two things. Why is it bad if we trade to get what we want?" Nick aggressively rubbed his jaw, he looked at Natalie. Although she was kind of a dumb girl, she knew that something wasn't right with this deal. "He is lying, it is not balanced at all," Natalie said. "He has come to trap you." "Speak of only what you know, Natalie," David warned her. "I don't have the time or patience to play any trapping game with anyone." Nick was watching him as if he was looking for the quickest sign to see that he was lying. He saw nothing. When he s

David didn't realize that morning had come. He would have continued sleeping, if not for Dre that barged into his room and shook him away. "David, wake up! You have got to see this!"David stood up, his body wanting to go to sleep. His eyes were heavy, but he rubbed life back into them. Dre was nudging him, pushing his phone into his hands, David was confused about what was going on. "It's barely morning, Dre." He complained. "Just give me five more minutes, I promise to give ear to whatever it is that you want." Dre wasn't listening, he didn't stop shaking his friend. This was a very serious matter that couldn't wait. "It's about Dominic Ford! It's very terrible, you have to see this!" That was what David needed for his eyes to fly open. He was fully away in a flash and was up to his feet. He was by the window, scrolling through Dre's phone. The article was a few minutes old, it was very fresh news, but that didn't dampen the graveness of it. Dominic Ford's recent act was th

David was staring with wide eyes, this wasn't what he was expecting. "Is this a joke?" He asked her, clearly it had to be. "No, sir, it's not." She said, "Because whose genius idea is this?" He laughed. "Why am I supposed to take the fall for a man I have never seen in my life?" "That man is your father," She reminded him. "And this is your company here, you have to do it." "No." David dropped the file on the table. "This is crazy, I am not going to do it. Did you see the crowd? I am not standing in front of those angry people to apologize for something that I didn't do!" He was about to walk out of the door, but Rosie stopped him with a hand on his chest. "Do you realize what you are doing?" She asked. "I need to be ready in an hour."He shrugged her off very aggressively. "I don't give a fuck!" He yelled. "Since it's so important to you, why don't you do it?!""Stop it, David." Her lips were thinned, she didn't want anyone to hear them, but he was screaming. "Call your bos

David was startled to see her, she was the last person that he expected to be there. He pulled her into the room and shut the door immediately. "Stefanie, what are you doing here?" He asked, visibly worried for her. "I saw the news, I saw how angry the crowd was and then Dre called me," She said. "He got your text and contacted Ethan and me, we are going to get you out." David's jaw dropped to the ground, he couldn't believe that his friends would risk their life trying to save him. "Stefanie, you can't be here." He sighed. "It's too dangerous." "Yes, I agree, I shouldn't be here, but neither should you. If they feel they can throw you in front of an angry crowd of people, they must be stupid. We are getting you out of here." David wanted to say something else to her, something to tell her how impossible her bright idea was, but he heard someone walk up to the door. He pressed Stefanie to the wall and held his hand over her mouth. He mouthed for her to keep quiet. "David,

David regretted it all, at this point. His life was better as a loser. Yes, he got bullied and maltreated a lot because he was poor, but at least no one had to die for him. He didn't want his friends to die because of him, no he would rather die for them. "Let them go, Gary." David sighed. "You have me, you can do whatever you want with me, but let my friends go." "Your friends know the truth, we can't let them live." Gary reminded him. "Remember the servants that saw your face? Remember the worker that knew your identity? They were all killed, that's exactly what's going to happen to your friend." David's heart tightened on hearing that, he shut his eyes as if to get rid of those painful words. All he saw were bad memories, he was right there when Rosie killed those workers, and he was also there when they took Wendy away. Maybe this was all coming back to haunt him because he didn't do enough to save them. That's why his friends now have the same fate. "Please." David's voic

The crowd went absolutely crazy when David announced that to them. The protesters wanted to kill him with their screams, while the journalists were trying to climb over the soldiers so that they could speak to him. Even with that, it was like everything was muted and in slow motion to David. He was looking from one side of the crowd to the other, all he heard was his heart banging against his chest. Strong hands pulled him away as the flashes from the cameras almost blinded him. He was taken into the building and the guards shield him from unseen danger. They continued that way until they pushed him into a room. David found himself with Gary and Rosie again. Gary had his head against the wall and was hitting it with his fists. Rosie was walking to and fro, her right index finger in her mouth. Something about the misery he had caused them was so appealing to him. He laughed, slowly at first, until it was a fit and he was holding his belly.Rosie was looking at him as if he had

"Hey!" Stefanie took out her gun.Normally, she would have aimed it at Stefanie, but she knew that it wasn't her doing, so she aimed it at Lucinda. Tears were streaming down Stefanie's eyes, her hand was shaking, but the gun was still pointed at him. "I'm sorry." She sobbed. "I don't want to do it, David, she said she is going to post everything about my past life." "Just do it." He told her with a still face. "Go on, do it!" "Don't say that!" She cried. "Please." "I have the flash right here with me, Stefanie," Lucinda called after her. "If you don't do what I want, I will ruin your life!" "You have the black card, it has more money than anyone has seen in your lineage." Rosie hissed. Lucinda looked at her and laughed. "If it isn't his lap dog speaking." Lucinda mocked her. "How do you feel? You are right behind him all the time and you think that he is not going to fuck you up really soon?" Rosie wasn't fazed, the gun was still pointed at Lucinda, one word from David and s

Stefanie couldn't understand why Lucinda was smiling even though she had just told her that David ruined her life. She kept down the plate of food, she was now very sure of the fact that it was definitely poisoned. Lucinda noticed this, but she just laughed it off. She picked up the remote control and changed the channel immediately, she had put on a comedy show and was laughing hysterically with the audience. Stefanie was watching her as if she had gone mad. "David took your home?" She swallowed. Lucinda stopped as she looked at her. "What, you think that I am lying or something?" She frowned. "No, that's what I mean, what I am trying to say is that he never said anything about this," Stefanie said. She was trying her best to show Lucinda that she wasn't trying to be offensive. Lucinda crossed her legs as she looked at Stefanie, her eyes piercing through her soul. "You think David Wyatt is a saint, don't you?" She asked. "What?" "You think he is a saint, I mean, that's ho

After watching the CCTV footage in the cafe, Rosie and Tommy left again. Tommy drove while Rosie sat beside him, deep in thought. "So what do you think happened here?" He asked. "And where did she go?" "We saw her break the black card after she made the withdrawal, she could be anywhere at this point." Rosie sighed. Tommy glanced at her, but he kept on driving. "If the black card is only given out by David Wyatt, maybe there should be ways to find out how much she withdrew, maybe it wouldn't give us an idea of what she wanted to use the money for." "Withdrawals made with the cards can be tracked, that's why they were specially made. For untraceable transactions." She said, Tommy faced the road as he kept going, it seemed like there was so much on her mind. "Hey." He said to her, "Don't worry we will find her." "I don't know, Tommy, I have a very bad feeling about this." She confessed. He saw how worried she was, so he took her hand and gently squeezed it gently. Firstly he

The cameras showed Stefanie leaving, but no one saw her walk out. She wasn't dragged out, she went out of the building without anyone forcing her. That fueled the possibility of her actually running away, which made David even more angry. He was so disturbed that Rosie took it upon herself to dig even more into the situation. She spent the night at the office alone, reviewing the CCTV videos. A coffee to keep her eyes open and her brain alert, she kept watching the videos again and again. She noticed that Stefanie came out holding her phone very close to her chest like she didn't want anyone to take it from her. "Strange…" Rosie got closer to the screen of the computer. Stefanie was looking around too like she wanted to make sure that no one was looking at her. She finally got out of the building and into a taxi, the taxi didn't have a plate number and the driver wasn't seen. "Son of a bitch…" she muttered. She heard a knock on her door and her ears stood up like those of a

It was like a joke, she was there for one second and she was gone for the next. It looked like a joke, everyone went from wanting to kill David to looking for Stefanie, it was like she disappeared into thin air. Nothing was coming forth, not even after they looked at all the cameras and found nothing, it was a worrisome situation. After she had been missing for twenty-four hours, the police were invited. It was a sight to see, everyone stopped when the chief of the police came to see David personally. He walked into the building with his guards and they marched to David's office. David was waiting, his hands behind his back and a very worried look on his face. "Mister Wyatt? I am the chief of police, Frederick Lawson, I will be handling your case." "Hello, thank you for being here. Please let's talk in my office." David led him in and the door was shut tight. It was just David, the Chief, and Rosie, no one else was there. The chief took off his large hat and placed it on h

Even David didn't realize that his mother was going to be there, given that he didn't invite her to the "party." He knew where to look, Rosie was looking as guilty as a pickpocket caught in the act. "You call my mum!" He looked at her. "Rosie, is this you having a death wish?!" His mother rolled her eyes as she placed a defensive hand on Rosie's shoulder. "Imagine what would have gone wrong if she didn't." His mother said. "Maybe you should be thankful to her." She looked around at all those pointing guns at her son, but her face froze immediately. "Antonio." She called. Antonio dropped his gun even further as he slapped his face. "Don't tell me that Alexa is his mum!" Now this was David's turn to be confused. The Grand Master was looking at them with a smile on her face. She didn't really come here to save anyone, she didn't care that much, she only thought it would be fun to watch. "Thanks for calling me, Rosie," Alexa said. She took a step forward, she examined the situ

Finally, almost at midnight, Lilian and Antonio arrived at the office. There were no extravagant billboards, no sign to show that it was David's place, everything was turned down. Lilian texted David very quickly to make sure that he knew they were there. Antonio got out of the car, he couldn't stop looking at the huge building. "Wow, this is so beautiful." He said. "Whose place is this?" "I didn't research that, but Dominic Ford's son will be here, there is supposed to be a dinner party." She said, "Oh, I see." He said. "We somehow were able to get seats." "Nothing better than having front seats to watch that fucker die." He muttered. Lilian smiled as they walked into the building. David planned this very well, there were people there to meet them and they were led up to the first floor, then the terrace. Antonio stopped when the beautiful scene met his eyes. The beautiful lights, the beautiful decorations, the nice, huge table, he was blown away by it immediately. "Wow,

Rosie's eyes almost popped out of her socket when David told her about the new development. "Wait, please, wait a minute." She held up her hand. "Are you trying to tell me that you, willingly, invited her Uncle– who wants to kill you? – to come to see you kill yourself?!" "Exactly, that's just about it." He nodded. She puffed out her mouth and held her hands behind her neck. "David, I mean this in the most respectful way, what the fuck?!" "It's high time I get this settled," David said. "I mean, how long am I going to keep playing this game with him?" "How do you intend to kill yourself?!" She asked. "That man may be retired, but he is still very dangerous.""We are all dangerous people, aren't we?" He asked. "Maybe, just maybe, I will be able to have a civil conversation with him, but if not, I will die." "You can't die!" She rebuked him with horror in his eyes. "You are the owner of a trillion-dollar business empire, you can't die!" David looked at the pen in his hand. Black

It looked like it took just a twinkle of an eye and David was on the plane with Stefanie. He couldn't leave her alone in the town, she looked sick and he didn't trust her uncle. As they sat in the plane, they were flying through the night. They were sitting a few seats from each other and no, it was not because they got into some kind of argument. It was because she was dozing off and David laid her on the chair to give her as much space as she needed. She never really slept off, her eyes were half shut, and she was looking at David through the half-shut lids. He looked worried, the way he looked out of the window, even though it was nothing but darkness out there. She felt her heart worry for him, whatever was in his head right now that was making him worry so much. She knew how much he cared for Gary, the man was like his father – but David wasn't going to be caught saying that. She shut her eyes again and said a small prayer to God. For David's sake, let Gary be okay. She
