Davide eyes went round in fear, he was so scared that he immediately ran to hold Cassie. She was lying on the ground helplessly and not just that, her temperature was frighteningly high, she waa running a fever and he couldn't help but wonder what could've happened to her. He lifted her off the floor and laid her on the bed, she moaned and shifted slightly, her eyes opened up and a weak smile graced her face. Davide's heart ached as he saw her in that situation. He was very sad and scared for her. "What's going on Cassie?" He asked. She shook her head, "I'm just so tired". Davide turned to Zeta, "hurry up, get the maid, call a doctor". Zeta quickly rushed out of the room to do what he had just ordered. Cassie held Davide's face with her small hands, "I think you should go to your meeting, I'll be fine". Davude shook his head, "Avery can go fuck herself, I don't want to leave you". Cassie shook her head weakly, "let's not do that, I want you to divorce her, just to get everythi
"Davide cannot settle me except he has a secret safe with cash and if he does have it, then I'm not divorcing him".Avery's words kept replaying over and over again in Davide's head. He could not fathom why she was being so annoying. She obviously didn't love him and wanted to trap him in the marriage just because she needed his blood. Avery was after only that one thing and she was willing to sacrifice her freedom for such.Davide was angry, staring at the woman sitting before him, she had a devious smile on her face as she played with her hair, she was getting very excited over the fact that she had such a hold on him. She loved that she was in the position to determine Davide's life. She was strong enough to determine what would happen next in his life.Aver was smiling at him and also winking at Silas because the man sitting there was too handsome to be ignored. She was in the midst of two very attractive men and she could not pick one if she were asked to.Davide had skin almost
Avery looked between Derek and Davide, she was unsure of what was happening between them. As she looked at Derek more, she suddenly remebered where she had met him. When she had found out where Davide was saying, Derek had been there and he had calls Davide his servant.However, it wasnt afding up to Avery why Derek waa takingbit upoj himself to set his servant free. She wondered the sort of relationship that was going on between them. There were a lot.of ideas going though jer head but she had to keep herself grounded. To think of reality, every possibility.Her hand hovered over the envelope and it was temtping to her, she wantws to see how much derek really wanted to oay just to get his servant free from her clutches, she wanted to see how much Davide waa worth to Derek.So she grabbed the envelope and opened it, it contained a cheque. She smirkes when she read it over and saw the price written on it. It obviously excited her, the amount was huge but if he was willing to give out s
Derek tapped on Davide's face after dropping the bombshell on him and then he left with his guards.Davide couldn't stop thinking about what his uncle had told him. He needed to prove himself in this event, he was heading jt and he needed to make sure that everything was perfect and if everything was perfect, a lot of people will praise him and then Derek could proudly announce him as the heir.Davide was already seeing hiw everything woukd go. He wasn't happy about it. He thought he needed a lot to learn, he wasn't really confident in the few knowledge he had acquired and thought that he could surely do better. He felt tgar more time could shape him uo pretty nice but as it seems, Derek was in a hurry.And then yhere was also him saying Davide should get married to Cassie. He had not been able to stop thinking about Derek's words. Him and Cassie had only shared a kiss and he wasnt a child who didn't kmow that be was crushing on her. She was beautiful and it was expected of him to cru
Davide looked at Cassie quizzically, he couldn't think of a definite reason why Cassie would say something like that, to him, she must be feeling very delirious to say such a thing and it may be because of the fever. Davide was trying to understand her situation.He saw in her eyes the weakness and how she moved and ate the apples, he knew she wasn't in her right mind to even think of saying something kike that. Derek was his family and Cassie and Derek were more or less, friends and it couldn't be said that she didn't trust him. Their families had a lot of businesses together, making deals, signing contracts and it couldn't be done if there did not exist trust between them. So it was unlikely that Cassie knew what she waa saying when she said it."You must really be feeling sick" he placed the back of his hand against her forehead and as his hand came in contact with her, her eyes rolled to the back of her head and she passed out.Davide was immediately scared, he pressed the nurse'
Avery had seen them walking in, when she saw them, thwy hadn't realized she was there. She had heard about how good they looked togethrr and that was what prompted her to look at the entrance. She didn't exoect that the people her colleagues were talking about was her husband and his stupid mistress. Her blonde hair was in loose curls and her makeup was simple and it was all she needed to look exceptional. As she entered the room, it was like the lights shone brighter.Avery shook her head, she should not be praising the beauty of her enemy, she hated the fact that she couldn't laugh at Cassie for being ugly, thw woman was yoo beautiful and standing close to Davide like that, they looked like thwy fell off from a movie. Avery was infuriated. She hated how good they looked togethrr and how Davide was acting around the bitch.That was when Davide's eyes fell on her, she saw thw transformation, how his eyes suddenly grew cold and his smile disappeared after he saw her. Avery felt a pang
CH 73Davide had had enough of Avery. He had bee quiet ever since this conversation started because he believed that Cassie would do her magic and so far, she had been great. He coukd see that Cheryl was glimmering with the excitement of having her collection displayed at the event, he knew cassie had managed to convince her and now Avery was trying to ruin everything for him by bringing up their marriage.But of course, he wasnt going to sit back and ket Avery do as she wished. This was his business and he also had a say in their marriage."Please, Avery just drop it, are you forgetting that we're signing the divorce papers in a few days?"Avery was angry, she wanted to say so many thinhs to Davide, to twll him that he was insane and stupid but before she coukd open her mouth, Cheryl decided to speak up."And it doesn't even matter, Avery. The West empire is one of the biggest in the world. They are wealthy, they have connections everywhere and imagine my designs being displayed in t
Davide was perplexed by her request. He was keft speechless, he looked at Cassie who was snickering silently. Unlike Davide, she found the humor in it. She wanted to.kaugh but they were in a public soace so she had to put a pin in it. Davide however, was unable to say anything. Cheryl was looking at him like shendidnt just say the most brazen thing in the world. Davide didn't know how to tell her that it cannot be possible. She was looking at him with hopeful, round dow eyes that made her look very innocent. Davide shook his head. He had to say something but he couldn't say anything, his mind was going through all the possible ways this conversation would turn out and making a decision was getting very uncomfortable for him. He looked at cassie for help but yhe woman was only smilimg at him, putting her hands up intending that she wantwd nothing to do with the conversation. Davide reakized that he was left alone, betrayed by Cassie. Davide had no choice, he had tongibe her an an
