The Secret Heiress Revenge

Chapter 6

Cherry’s POV:

“Take me to her? Do you know what you are saying? How did you get to know me?”I said while he stood surprised.

“Let me introduce myself to you. My name is Richard Kingsley. I have been working for your mother as her secretary for the past twenty years now. She told me to come and get you after looking for you.”

“We have been looking for you for so long . Your mother is the CEO of the L’Avogue group of companies. I don’t know if you have heard of such.”He continued.

“Are you telling me that I still have a mother? Who is she? Why is she looking for me now? How dare she abandon me?”I spoke out of annoyance.

“Calm down, Sophia or should I say Cherry? Sophia was the name given to you by your mother before your adopted parents gave you the name Cherry.”

“I hope this is not a dream because I don’t understand why my biological mother would abandon me and come back to look for me after twenty eight years. This is just insane! So what about my Father?”I looked at Richard again.

“Ms Cherry, I guess it’s just best you enter into the car with me and allow me to take you to your mother to get all the answers to your questions.”I entered into the limousine without thinking twice because I needed answers to your questions

I needed to see the face of the man and woman who abandoned me. I was taken into a very large mansion. It was so big and luxurious. It was bigger than Leonard’s mansion. As I stepped out of the limousine, Richard guided me into the house.

It was so beautiful. I never imagined myself being the daughter of a billionaire. If my parents had not “disposed” me away; I would have lived the best life I should have lived. I would not have even gotten the job of being Leonard’s Secretary or even getting married to the bastard.

After this thought, I was having I had to let go of them and concentrate on what I came there to do. I came to confront the woman who had claimed to be my mother.

Richard opened the door to a very large room. As he opened the door, I saw a lady in her middle age sitting in a wheelchair facing the window which could not make me look at her face properly.

“Ma’am, she is already here,” Richard calls out her attention. The woman turned her back to face me. We both looked into our eyeballs. I gave her a very strong frown. I was not there because I was happy to meet her. I had to wait for her to greet me first and I made sure she saw the strong frown on my face.

“How are you dear?” she said trying to bring out a smile on her face. “My name is Emilia L’Avogue.”

“Excuse me, Ma’am. I would love to leave you both.”Richard said taking his leave. She moved closer to where I was ,moving with her wheelchair. I noticed how pale her face looked as she got closer to me.

“Why did you abandon me?” I spoke with anger.

“I can explain my dear. It all happened a long time ago. I have been trying to look for you for the past fifteen years now. I tried to get your information from the orphanage you were dropped.But found out you had been adopted.And the information of those that adopted you were not given.”

“Why did you drop me at the orphanage the first time,” I asked impatiently.

“I got pregnant with you when I was fifteen years old. I gave birth to you when I was sixteen years old . I was not ready to have a child at that time. My parents wanted me to get an abortion but I refused because I did not want to lose you. As for your father, he did not want to also lose you. He was my boyfriend way back in high school. Unfortunately, I just found out that he had died thirteen years ago.”

“My parents made sure I had nothing to do with him because he was not from a rich family. The doctor that wanted to help me to get an abortion said it was impossible for me, that it might cost me my life. That was how my parents approved of me keeping the baby.”

“After I had given birth to you, My parents gave you out for adoption. I thought that I would be able to get you back after I had graduated from college.”Tears began to fall out of her face.

“I went back to the orphanage and found out that another family had adopted you. I did not mean to abandon you, it was because of my situation.”Tears began to fall out of my eyes and I ran towards her to hug her, we both cried profusely.

“I still have something to tell you” I was not expecting her to tell me something at that instant.

“I have three months to live. I have been diagnosed with blood cancer and I don’t have much time to live. I want to give you all of my properties as an inheritance. I heard you studied Human Resources Management and you would know how to manage my wealth.

“What? Why is this happening?”We both continued weeping. I thought to myself why I would have to lose my real mother just three months after her death? I felt life was not fair to me. Which family member was I going to rely on when things get sour? It is still unfortunate for me because my real mother would not get to meet my unborn child.”

After her death, I had to travel out to London to monitor the companies in London. It was already five years that I had spent in London. My twins were already five years old. I could take care of them properly. I had the resources to get them all the things that they needed as the new CEO of the L’Avogue group of Companies.

I knew I had to come back to Los Angeles because that was where felt like home. I would not say London was horrific,but Los Angelos was a place that was no place that felt like home.

LEONARD POV:

It had already been five years since I had lost Cherry . I have tried looking for Cherry but there was nowhere I could find her. Somebody had told me he saw her on a flight going to Spain. I went there to see her but she was not there. My life seemed miserable and my heart was filled with guilt.

All the money I had could not take away the burden that was in my heart. I kept wondering what if she had remarried or how her living conditions could have been. I would not want to lose her to any other guy. I remembered the awful words I had told her on the night of the incident.

If I was patient enough to tell her what had happened. We would have gotten the correct result. I can not believe that Vivian tried to ruin my reputation. She accused me of r****g her. I was so happy that she couldn’t provide any evidence for her to prove what she had accused me of or else that would have been a salt to my injury for the public to know. The media had already found out that I and Cherry had already separated. What is more worse than being accused of r**e?

CHERRY’S POV:

Finally, I have moved back to Los Angeles. I have to take care of this business successfully and also my kids. The company had a business partner that I was going to meet that day.

“Good day, Ms. L’Avogue” I am the CEO of the company that wants to partner with you.”A tall handsome-looking man said. He had a blue hazel eye,a muscular figure and a blonde hair

“Good day, Mr….” I felt ashamed for not remembering his name.

“It’s Patrick Harper. But you can just call me Patrick.”

“Oh my God, I am so sorry for not remembering. I have got a lot of things on my mind .“

“It’s nothing to bother about. I want to ask you if you are not busy this Friday night. Maybe we can have a dinner date.”

“Oh my God, Mr Patrick, I will be very busy,” I said with a timid face.

“It’s just business. You know just business talk.”He said friendly with a smile.

“I have to attend to my kids, Mr Patrick.Maybe next week. I am so sorry.”

“I get you, you don’t have to emphasize too much.”

“I guess we would have to speak some other time,” I said rushing out of his sight.
