The heir and his heiress episode 43

THE HEIR AND HIS HEIRESS

(From a nobody to a Billionaire)

⚡Chapter 43⚡

Chris POV

I turned around as soon as I heard a male voice and surprisingly, it was Mr. Eduardo. This is really getting more interesting than I expected.

Kathryn called me to come here but she actually set me up with her dad. I always knew there was something fishy about her and I’m glad I found out before it’s too late.

“The last heir?” I asked feigning ignorance

“Ohh! I’ve forgotten that you won’t be able to remember anything. After all, your memory was completely wiped out” he said with a smirk

“I still don’t understand what you’re saying” I lied again

“Well, I think I will have to explain so many things today since this is going to be your last day on earth. I will tell you everything you need to know but first, open this safe for me” he said and two guys brought out a safe

I stared at the safe confusedly as they put it down before me. What is this? Does it also belong to my family?

“You need to put your blood in,side that small space so that the safe will open. I know you don’t understand why I need your blood so I’ll explain things to you briefly” he said, while I just stared at him without saying a word

“Your parents were the owner of so many companies and properties. They were the richest family and were the envy of so many people.

My family was the fourth in line and I couldn’t just sit and watch us fall behind everything so I came up with a great plan.

I got rid of your parents and everyone that could possibly have the right to their properties but I spared only you.

I regret sparing you but I guess it was worth it anyway. Only the blood of you or someone related to you by blood can open this safe so I want you to open it.

If you open it for me, I will spare you and let you walk out of this place alive. If not, you will die on the s₱0t” he concluded

As soon as he was done saying that, some men came out and surrounded me with guns and knives.

“Where is my sister first?” I asked calmly

“Your sister? Oh! You mean Dora? She’s dead. She died a long time ago. I didn’t really have the intention of killing her then but my beautiful daughter Kathryn, helped me in killing her. I wonder why that girl looks so much like me and even takes after me when we’re not even related” he mumbled the last part to himself but I still heard him

“What do you mean by she’s not related to you?” I asked

“You don’t get to ask me any question here. Just do as I say and leave” he thundered

“Why would I want to do that? I won’t open this safe because my parents specifically left it for me. If I’m to open it, then I would be the only one to see whatever is in it” I said

“It’s obviously money and probably some documents that are in it. Do you think there’s something special in it? Just open it and save your life” he said

“No, I won’t. I would rather die than open this safe” I said adamantly

“Fine then. I will fulfill your wish for you” he said and moved back

The men moved closer while I also tried to move back, but it seemed impossible because I was trapped in their midst.

Just when I was almost loosing hope, the door burst open and the guards I brought along with me, came in. Wow! I almost forgot about them. It’s good to be smart atimes.

“What were you saying about fulfilling my wish?” I asked with a smirk

“You! How dare you play a trick on me?” Mr Eduardo fired

“A trick? I should be saying that to you. Besides, I only beat you at your own game because of my smartness so how can you call that a trick?” I asked with an eyeroll

“Don’t spare him! Make sure you get rid of every single one of them” he s¢ræmed

“Alright then, let me see you try” I said and moved back

Even without the help of the guards, I’ll still be able to beat most of them but in the end, they’ll defeat me. Now that the guards are with me, I’m confident that we’re going to win this fight.

After some minutes of fighting, we were able to bring down all his men while he stared at us fearfully.

“Will you answer my questions now or should I make you?” I asked standing right in front of him

“I…I will answer your question” he answered shakily

“You said Kathryn killed my sister. Is it true or it’s a story made up by you?” I asked

“It’s true!” he quickly answered

“So, you’re saying my sister is dead? How can you be so cruel to kill that little girl? What did she ever do to you? I don’t think you guys deserve to be called humans, you are monsters!” I s¢ræmed at him with bloodshot eyes

“I didn’t kill her. Kathryn pushed her off the stairs out of jealousy. I only covered up her crime because she was still young and I already took her in as my daughter. I didn’t want a little child like her to suffer for her childishness” he explained

“That childishness led to the death of my sister. Anyway, that discussion is with Kathryn. What did you mean when you said Kathryn is not related to you?” I asked

“She’s not my daughter. I saw her in an accident and I saved her life. The other people were dead so I couldn’t ask anyone about her identity” he said

“Why didn’t you take her to the police station?” I questioned further

“She was just five years old back then and I thought I would just raise her as my daughter instead since I only had one” he said

“Okay. Enough about Kathryn! Hand over my parents properties and company documents to me. Without that, you are going nowhere.

You will be tied in this warehouse without food or water until you’re ready to hand it over” I said

“I would never hand over the documents to you” he said

“Okay then, you leave me with no other option. Tie him up” I ordered and walked out of the warehouse

The rest of the guards took the safe and put it in the car as we drove back to the mansion.

“Chris! What happened? Why did you return so early?” Mitchell asked as soon as I entered our room

“You’re supposed to be sleeping. Why are you just sitting and what have you been doing?” I asked instead

“I couldn’t sleep because I was bored and lonely. You haven’t answered my question yet, why did you return home so early?” she asked

“I’m feeling tired so I decided to take the day off” I lied

“Really? Are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?” she asked checking me out

“No, I’m fine. I will feel better once I get enough rest” I said with a small smile

“Alright, you should sleep then” she said while I nodded and went to bed

I don’t want to tell her what’s going on just yet. It has to be shocking to her and besides, I want to prove myself to her. She and her Dad has done a lot for me already so it’s time to pay them back. I opened the safe already and saw what’s in it.

*Flashback to thirty minutes ago*

The driver was driving towards the mansion already but then, I changed my mind and went to my old house. The house I lived before Mr Williams took me to his mansion.

“Take the safe in,side the house” I said to the guards

They helped me take the safe in and I asked them to wait outside. I shut the door and locked it from in,side after which I took a knife.

I don’t know why, but I’m curious to find out what exactly is in this safe. What could be so special about it that I even have to open it with my blood?

I cut my palm with the knife and put few drops of blood in the small space on the safe and surprisingly, it opened.

Wow! This is incredible! So a person’s blood can open a safe? I guess technology is more advanced than I imagined.

I knelt beside the safe and took out the document in it. There were also two black cards there with the password written on them. My parents even left black cards?

I’m sure the card belongs to Dora and I but sadly, Dora is no more. I won’t spare the Eduardo’s for taking my only sister away from me.

I went through the document one after the other and I discovered that five companies in America belongs to me while two belongs to Dora. Now that she’s no more, I guess I have to give everything that belonged to her to Mitchell. I can’t possibly take something that belonged to my only sister.

I locked the safe back and left it there in my house because I think it will be safer there. Besides, I don’t want Mitchell to find out about my identity yet.

I know she’s having difficulties with her company and I want to help her secretly. Once her company is well developed, I’ll reveal my identity to her.

*End of flashback*

“What are you thinking about?” Mitchell asked jolting me out of my thoughts

“Ohh! It’s nothing, I’ll sleep now” I smiled and closed my eyes

Kevin’s POV

I got a call from a detective friend of mine, saying that my sister might still be alive.

“How is that possible? She died alongside my father nineteen years ago right?” I asked confusedly

“That was what we all thought but the bodies found at that accident scene didn’t actually include the body of a young girl so I suspect that she’s alive somewhere. Is there anything about your sister that you know? Maybe a birthmark or something?” he asked

“She has a scar on her right shoulder and there’s a birthmark at the left side of her neck” I said

“Alright then. We will start searching now to see if we will find something similar” he said and ended the call

I don’t understand a single thing that is going on here. I thought she died nineteen years ago in that car accident so how come they are talking about a missing body now?

I think I should just overlook this because having high hopes won’t do me any good. What if she really is dead?

But on a brighter side, what if she’s alive just like the detective thinks? I need to get my act together and think straight.

Should I go to Mom and ask her about it? No! That’s absurd! There’s no way I would go to her for something like that.

I already hate her so much for causing the death of my precious sister and Dad. I can’t ask her any question. Who should I ask then?

I need to clear this doubt off my mind quickly so I can focus on other things. Diana means a lot to me and I can’t concentrate on any other thing if it’s about her.

Now that I think about it, I think I saw a scar on someone’s shoulder recently. It must have been among the girls I f**Ked.

Why am I even thinking about that? There’s no way Diana would have been a call girl. She’s has always been a decent girl since childhood.

Even though she was slow at learning, she had good morals and I’m sure she couldn’t have turn out to be a call girl.

It’s not only call girls that I slept by the way. I slept with top models too, but they all did it willingly except…… Kathryn.

Kathryn? Why would I even think about Kathryn now? Just because I had my way with her forcefully doesn’t mean she’s Diana. No matter how much Diana changed, her face won’t be completely different like that.

I don’t know why I’m having absurd thoughts right now. I think I need to do something to get my mind off this thought.
