The West's Secret Heir Chapter 109
Beatrice stared at the gold wordlessly. Well, it wasnt kike anyone was in the house with her that she could say anything to. She didn't know what to think or what to do. She thought of calling Avery but she didn't want to disrupt whatever she had going on.She knew her daughter wasn't so rich that she could just acquire gold bars through legal means and from the amount of gold in the bag, jt was surely not a legal business. Beatrice was heartbroken. She wanted to ask herself where she had gone wrong but then she admitted that regarding Avery, she never actually did anything right. She had not been a good mother and only now was she trying to make a difference, to be a better person, a better mother, but the time was already too late. Avery had lost her daughter and her husband and if the cause of those unfortunate situations could be traced, it would be found that she had been the one responsible for it.She was the only one responsible for what she had done. Nobody could be blamed

The designers all looked at themselves, they had heard rumors about Davide before: how he single handedly took over the project of the anniversary event and making it the biggest one yet. They heard that all the ideas came from him, he was the "idea man" and also a very intelligent manager. He was literally the best of the best.They heard him now, prior knowledge about hik made them feel like they could trust him. He gave nothing, no reason in particular why they should trust him but all they needed was information about the past. He had embarked on a terrible journey like this one and he had come out victorious, maybe he could really make such products like that.Davude watched them, saw the doubts crossing their faces, saw how they looked at one another wondering if they should trust him. He also saw one of them stand up, "I don't think this will be a success and I don't want to do something that will yield no profit, I'm sorry but I cannot do this" she said and then walked out o

Davide looked at Mr Lee enigmatically. He didn't know what Mr Lee expected him to say nor did he know what he wanted to say. All he was feeling was his heart pounding against his chest. One could say that he was overreacting but Davide thought otherwise. He hadn't realized this until he found himself in this minute, looking at Mr Lee numbly, the realization dawned on him that he had regarded Mr Lee as a friend. He had thought that the doubts he had about him had drowned that feeling but the heaviness in his heart was proof that it wasnt so.His throat was dry, he swallowed but there was nothing to swallow, *what do you mean?"Mr Lee on the other hand was quiet. They both had been quietly staring at each other, they both had words swarming their minds. The buzzing was loud, however, Mr Lee could hear his own thoughts despite it. However, it was quite contrary for Davide.He was drowned by those words, those questions, they were stinging him, he had nowhere tk run, he had no escape jus

Mr Lee nodded his head, affirming that indeed Davide had read the numbers correctly. There were so many things that this has proved and at that moment, Davide wondered if he could actually absorb the information that was being communicated to him without falling apart. Someone was out there, sensing this amount of money just to push drugs."So, who sent the money?"Mr Lee clicked his tongue and a smile graced his face, "that's where there has been some fuck up," he said, "the money was transferred by someone called Michael Davis".Davide frowned, that sounded so put together, like an alias, "you're sure there's someone named Michael Davis who has over a hundred thousand dollars sitting in his account comfortably?" Davide asked.Mr Lee wore a confused look on his face, "what do you mean?"Davide shrugged, "did you guys look up the owner of that name? Any social media account?"Mr Lee shook his head. He had left certain stones unturned and this one was one of them. All he wanted to do

Beatrice had been traumatized by what she had seen in her daughter's room. It had been so bad that she needed more blood than she usually did. She was worried, thinking about what Avery could've gotten herself into. She had thought she brought up Avery to be a woman of power and legality, she made sure she gave Avery the best, even though she had been a horrible mother, she still had to give herself some credit.But as it seemed, she was more of a bad mother than she thought. She had made her daughter into this, she pushed the only person that could have brought out the best in Avery out of her life just because she had been jealous and now, she had this life."Mom?"Beatrice glanced at the direction that voice came from. On seeing her daughter, all that she had been thinking came to a temporary pause. She smiled."What are you doing here?" Beatrice asked.

As it seemed, when Avery had gone shopping, a job came in from the fax machine. It had the details of a woman on it. And there were also very specific orders to make sure she didn't survive whatever Avery had planned for her.Unfortunately, her mother had found the thing she was desperately trying to hide from her. She had guessed that the spot that she would be tossed in upon her mother finding out about what it was that she was up to wasn't going to be a favorable one. And she was right.Avery just calmly walked over to the counter and dropped the bag on it. She was trying too hard to keep her cool but she was scared, she couldn't deny the fact that this was one of the few times where she was not able to salvage the situation.Before she could speak up and say something about what was going on, Beatrice beat her to it."Is the gold in your room payment for this crime?"Avery's heart skipped a beat, "you saw the gold?""Of course I did, what did you think sent me to the hospital?"A

Avery was sitting on her bed going through the paper that made Beatrice lose her mind. She had no idea who this victim was but from experience, she coikd deduce that the person had a sort of rekationship with Davide. She was ordered to make sure that the girl sidnt survive, that meant, she was expected to kill her. She was going to be a murderer.She knew that there was no way se coukd possibly escoae this excoet she yold Davide about it. But seeing that shes been followed and somewhere in her house, hidden oerfectly was a camera that was keeping tracks of everything she was doinh. She had to make sure that if she was going to tell Davide, she had to be very sublte.She folded the paper that had the name Andy Lee, spelt out.When the morning came, Davide received news from yhe designers, apparently out of the thirty desisgners that were in the company only twelve decided to embark on such a journey wuth him. The numbet was more than he expected, and he was really thrilled by that.He

Davide hadn't noticed his assistant who was standing at his side. He was more focused on the designers. He hadnt eveb seen the interaction between Lisa and that certain blonde. His eyes were pinned on the designers who were all introducing themselves to him, hoping that they coukd all get very familiar with each other.Upon meeting them did he reakize that kosy ofvthem were queer and it made him feel very lucky because these kinds of people wrre quite confident in their style and that confidence was reflected in what they produced."Lisa had told us a bit of what you need us for, but we'll like to hear from you directly. She said you ran into some trouble?"Davide didn't know if he coukd trust them with the truth, he turned to the man on his right for help ans that was when davide aaw how low Mr lee's head was drooping and thw wierd look in his eyes.On instinct, he looked towards Lisa and that was when he saw her in the warm embrace of another woman.

Davide and Mr Lee decided to check on the designers. The car ride had been silent, upon the discovery they just made considering Avery and even Mr Lee himself, one would believe they would be talking non stop about it but surprisingly, they weren't.They were both silent. Keeping their thoughts in, wondering if the other would like to talk. "How do you feel?" Mr Lee broke the silence, "you've been quiet, it makes me anxious".Davide chuckled, "I'm just thinking about what happened"."You have a suspect in mind" it wasn't a question, it was more of a declaration because it was the truth. These past few days, Mr Lee could say that he knew Davide to a extent and he knew that Davide had been thinking about this since Avery had said itFor Davide to have been told that he knew who the person was, his thoughts had not been able to settle, the erraticness of his heart was what shut his mouth up. He could not voice how he was feeling, where was hurting or would he come up with what to do abo

Cassie and Avery were no doubt excited about this. Seeing that Avery knew a lot about fashion and knew a lot of designers, Cassie decided that in this secret mission of theirs, Avery was going to be her assistant."I think it'll help tremendously if we were to leave the country". Avery said.Cassie, Davide and Mr Lee looked at her in confusion. They couldn't understand how this would help, they couldn't see it from her point of view.Avery recognized the confusion in them and only smiled before further explaining: "I know Cassie would be the last person they would think to search, but she will still be on the list, they know you guys are together and that Cassie is obviously on your side. So the best way to ensure that they don't find out about this, is to do this in another country".Davide nodded his head, "you're right," he said. "Leaving the country is a good pla

Mr Lee sounded so broken as he talked about his father. When he had told Davide about his family, he never really went into details about anything, only sliding over the surface as he spoke about the things his parents had put him through. He didn't talk about the punches, about how he had to defend himself against them, about how he had felt to see the man he called his father, the man he was supposed to love, the man that was supposed to be his hero turn into his greatest adversary. He never spoke about how those punches destroyed him, he only talked about how his mother's words broke him acting like the effect of his father's actions had not in any way affected him when in actuality it had made him less of a person. He had lived with the trauma, he had received abuses, punches from people just because it felt natural. But he was an adult now and he knew nothing about fighting back. He could not fight back because he was broken, he had been made less by the most important person to

Davide's heart was beating against his chest violently like drums at a carnival as he waited impatiently for Avery to say what she wanted to say. He was anxious, he wondered if Avery was confident in her own answer, if she really believed that she knew the person.He figured that if she really does know who it was that had come for the gold, then he would know that person as well. Sure, Avery did know a lot of people that he didn't know but the list of suspects was reduced to the people that Avery knew who also knew Davide. This attack, this hate was only against him. It was too strong to be said that It was targeted at the people that were around Avery. This person was coming for Davide directly and so he must know them.A fear gripped his heart, he had known for a while now that the person who was plotting against him in such a way was an acquaintance or even a friend, but being met with facts that proved his deductions had been corr

It did not cross Avery's mind that that was a question she should be asking a perpetrator who was clothed in black clothes. She was, however, anxious and also very scared. The physique of the person was tiny, they looked short and for some reason very curvy.Avery kept scrutinizing the person as the two of them stayed in the same position, eyes focused on the other. Avery wss unrelenting, she was not going to back down, she had been trying her hardest to atone for her sins and now that it seemed she really didn't need atonement the least she could do was give back what she had taken. But this person was going to rob her of that chance.It was highly impossible that Avery was going to let them.The person's eyes darted around the room, possibly looking for an opportunity to escape, but it was unlike it seeing that the room was messy and the only way that they would be able to escape was to jump over heaps of clothes or maybe fly, and it was very impossible that the person could fly.Av

The car ride was silent. But it was mainly because they both just got in. Avery wanted to say a lot of things to him but they mostly just circled around the words: "Thank you".She didn't know where to begin, his eyes were on the road as he drove, she wondered if she was the only one feeling this way. It wasn't so hard to guess that he was just being nice, he just pitied her. Though she felt that maybe it was more than that, maybe there was something else but she couldn't really say. She didn't know how to start the conversation. She didn't know how to start telling him thank you.Mr Lee however was more nervous than she was. He was sweating in places he didn't think existed. His heart was beating very fast and he was surely in need of a conversation.He wanted to talk to her about what happened, however, he was worried that maybe she would get the wrong idea, it was mainly that he wanted to talk about when the depression started, when she started to feel like there was nothing holdin

Cassie had not been expecting that Davide would suddenly ask her that question and especially at a time that really wasn't conducive. They had just more or less had a slight misunderstanding, they were still regulating being a couple. This was the first relationship she had ever been in. And although for Davide it was different, he had even been married but this was all new to her.She had had flings in the past, she had had one night stands but never a relationship. She loved Davide, truthfully. She had always loved him and when he came back into her life, it had been an earth shattering effect on her. She did imagine how it would be like to get married to Davide but it was still so soon. It was too soon for her. "I know you might think that I'm crazy that I'm making a very hasty decision but if everything goes south with this then i want to have the experience of being married to you before I die" Cassie shook her head, "you're not going to die." She had wanted to deflect, probabl

I don't care," Avery said, "I don't care if I die, I have nothing, I have no one in this world anymore. I only bring pain so yes, let them exterminate me. I have lived a fulfilling life".Mr Lee's heart lurched at those words. He was the only one other than Avery who had ever found himself at that place in life where he couldn't bother himself to stay alive, the time where he had just left the hospital. Then it had dawned on him that his mother would prefer that he was dead. At that time, he actually wanted to die, he didn't know what he was staying alive for. His family didn't want him, life was too hard, nothing was going his way. He really wanted to die and get it over and done with.He related quite well with what Avery was feeling and he pitied her because he knew how hard it must've been on her to make that decision that she didn't care. She was being brave but also very suicidal. He recalled the conversation he had with Davide, looking at her, he could see the shadow of that wo

Cassie got serious, she adjusted in her car and then looked around to the people who were with her."An address came to my phone" she said, "it said I would find the person who tried to kill my mother there".Avery's heart skipped a beat. If she had been holding a glass of anything, that glass would've fallen down, scattered, never could it be glued together again.She didn't need a professor to let her know that those people had discarded her. Since she didn't have anybody they could threaten her with, now they wanted to do away with her. Avery wanted to laugh, she shook her head slightly, her mother left her, her daughter did and now even these people wanted to leave her. Avery felt like she was no different from a used tissue, once she had served her purpose, she was thrown away into a waste bin.This was the waste bin she had found herself. She was also kind of happy that they didn't try to kill her, rather they wanted someone else to send her to prison. "And of course I didn't
