The West's Secret Heir Chapter 90
Avery panicked and threw the paper away. She was scared, terrified, her mother was so precious to her. Though she hadn't been the best mother, there was no way Avery would let any harm come to her.She started to regret ever accepting the money because the only way she could get out of this was by paying back. However, she wondered if the person behind all these packages would even accept the money back.The last time, he had paid her with cash just so she would do what he wanted, and now, he was threatening her. She wondered to what extent he was watching her so that he could tell she had spoken to Davide. And it had also been days, why did this person wait?Did it really matter? What concerns her was that there was a possibility that her mother was in danger and she needed to go to her rescue. Avery didn't even realize that she had been crying out of fear. Or maybe it wasn't just fear, maybe there was something more.Oh yes, there was regret. If she had not hated Davide as fervent

Maybe it was the loose, unkempt ponytail, or the simple pair of sweatpants matched with a hoodie, or it was hee bare face, but Beatrice could point out that there was something very different about her daughter.Other than her appearance, she was also smiling in a way that Beatrice was accustomed to. The last time Avery smiled like that was years ago when she tied the knots with Davide. Up until now that smile was gone.Avery approached her wearing that sad but happy smile, she looked tired, she looked like she was carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders.Aveey crouched down by her leg and gave it a gentle squeeze, "hello mom"."Is this your daughter?" The two percent woman asked.Beatrice didn't know where the smile came from, but she was grinning from ear to ear with pride bubbling in her chest, she nodded her head vigorously."Yes, this is my daughter," she looked at Avery, "my only daughter"."Aigoo," the red haired woman said, "so you brought her up while pushing her t

Avery had no idea why the anonymous person would suddenly send her a fax machine, nevertheless, she took it to her house and plugged it in.To say that she was scared was an understatement, she was petrified. When she had rushed to the hospital and couldn't find her mother on the bed, she had panicked. She grabbed her chest and started heaving, almost losing her mind trying to find her mother in that single room. She knew how her mom felt about meeting other patients especially the ones of her age, her mom had a pride that was incomparable to another. She felt like the earth was her footstool and it was very funny given the fact that they weren't even that rich.When she saw her mom talking to the other women, she felt very happy. She listened to the women talk and the smile that was plastered on her mom's face. Avery had very much liked the sight, to her it was definitely picturesque. She loved her mom.Her mother who had lived by always pushing her to the edge, her mother that had

Derek was staring wordlessly at Davide. He had so many thoughts going on in his head, however he could not bring himself to formulate an adequate reason for the question asked.He casually bit into his chicken like he wasn't having a tsunami in his head."Because of protection, Davide. I can't love you like I lost my brother". He said.Davide felt his heart warm up, he never thought that Derek possessed this fear in his heart, this worry for him. He thought at the very least, Derek just acknowledged him as his nephew and there was nothing more to it. But as it seemed, he was quite precious to the man.Why wouldn't he be, he was the only thing that reminded Derek of his brother. Davide looked just like his father, except he took his mother's eyes and her skin tone. His father was much more tanned but it didn't matter. Anytime Derek looked at him, he remembered the man who grew up w

Davide had already been feeling quite anxious and Zeta suddenly showing up made him sort of angry. He had been planning his escape and what if she had caught him climbing out of the window, he knew she wouldn't just let it go. Like now, she was standing there and questioning him when she should be apologizing about barging in."What are you doing here, Zeta?" He asked.Zeta looked around the room, the reason she had asked where he was going was because of how he was dressed. She knew that by this time, Davide was normally in his pajamas and was either on his computer or reading a book. But suddenly he was dressed in black faded jeans, a black t-shirt and even wore a pair of sneakers. It was really something to pique her interest.She frowned when she saw the crease between his eyebrows, she had never met this side of him before. He seemed to be very angry about something and she knew it didn't just have to do with her barging into his room. She admitted that it was a wrong thing to d

Mr Lee glanced at Davide who just asked him a very weird question. To tell the truth, Mr Lee himself had no idea why he was doing this. Why he rented a car, why he was wasting his precious time driving in the city when he shoukd.be snuggled up in his bed watching movies or eating chips. But instead he was sitting next to this insufferable person.It couldn't be that he just suddenly started to like Davide, well, it actually was that. He never expected that the boy would be so easy going and so different from many other people. He didn't know where the envy and jealousy had come from before that made him hate the dude, but after spending a few days with him he started to see a side to the boy he never saw before.He realized this when he was buying coffee, his usual was black but he didn't know when he asked for another one from the barista, he had made a lousy excuse to himself that he was just being a good staff but then he went out again just to get food for Davide and then got hims

Avery was feeling all sorts of emotions. She couldn't name one of them but she knew they existed inside her. It's been a whole day and she never left the house. She couldn't even bring herself to take her bath. She couldn't eat anything, it wasn't as if she even propelled herself up to enter the kitchen to cook. Avery was quiet, only staring at the bag of gold on her bed. Underneath the state of angst, there was a feeling of emptiness.She felt unbelievably empty.It's been twenty four hours since she stole the gold. When she was doing it, she didn't know that she possessed such strength, stealth or even wisdom to pull off such a heist. Though all the information about the whereabouts of the gold and the time she should be there was given to her, she still had to rely on her ability to take what wasn't hers. She had seen the clothes of the workers moving the gold. They were simple and looked very humble. One of them kept talking about his girlfriend and the other one was painfully s

Davide couldn't recall how he had fallen asleep but when he woke up, he was still in the clothes he wore yesterday. He must've been so tired that he couldn't change out of his clothes.He groaned and looked at the digital clock that stood on his nightstand, it was fifteen minutes to seven in the morning. He didn't bother himself with rushing to get dressed.He was the boss, he could come in to work at any time.However, he was instantly reminded of the problem he was facing at work. Davide lost his will to live.With his face buried in the comforters of his bed, he groaned. He didn't know if he had cried last night but he was sure that his eyes were suddenly moist and the comforter was starting to get wet.His life seemed to be a rollercoaster of misfortunes. He couldn't place his finger on one time in his life that he was truly happy and not rueful. No, his life was quite pitiful.He didn't want to go to work. The problems would be waiting for him. He didn't want to leave to do wha

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
