The Billionaire's Heir: Loving the Son of a Murderer Chapter 48: The Final Confrontation
Heather's POV20 minutes earlier"Heather, I knew you were trouble, but I have to admit you surprised me by showing up here."Heather is relieved by that statement from Liam. It means that she has not been moved to another location and is still at the warehouse address she sent to Casey and Tommy. She tries to focus on that relief rather than the fear that is threatening to consume her as she is at the mercy of the man who killed her mother."I guess I should be proud to have caught you off guard Liam. You don't mind if I call you Liam, do you? I have a feeling our relationship is about to enter a whole new level, as you torture me for information. Besides, you're my future father-in-law which basically makes us family," Heather says with confidence, trying to throw Liam off. Liam walks right up to her and grabs her by the neck. As he chokes her he pulls her up so her toes barely touch the ground. Heather starts to panic as she is unable to breathe. Liam's face is all she can see and

Heather's POVHeather rushes into the elevator as the door is closing, slightly breathless."Hey, Heather! Where are you rushing off to this morning?" her colleague Mark asks. "Oh, I have been summoned to the executive floor to meet with the COO immediately. What about you Mark? Who is in desperate need of IT help first thing in the morning?" Heather responds, hoping the light conversation will keep her nerves in check."Someone in Marketing is having a meltdown because they cannot access their presentation. Nowhere near as exciting as you having a meeting with the heir apparent," Mark says with a laugh."I don't even know why he would want to see me. I have never met Casey Sullivan let alone been in the same room as him." Heather doesn't bother to hide her confusion. "Well, maybe you are part of his plan to establish himself in the company. He has only been here three months and most people think he is just a yes man for his father. Having his own people could be good for our futur

Heather says with a laugh."I may have had a couple of glasses at happy hour. My boss demanded the whole department go as some kind of bonding exercise. Completely ridiculous, but it means free drinks and I am still home by seven to hang out with my best friend to hear all about her day at Evil Incorporated," Lucy says with a smile on her face.Heather is so lucky to have a best friend that has supported her through the good, the bad, and the mundane ever since they met in middle school."First, the whole company isn't evil. I don't think so at least. And second, today was a big day. I finally have full access to Sullivan Solutions' financials for the past two years. It does mean I have a long night of work ahead of me, so just the one glass of wine for now," Heather responds, wanting to share the good

Heather's POV"Hello, Heather. It is lovely to see you again." Casey is waiting for her as the doors to the elevator open onto the executive floor. "It's good to see you too Casey. I was surprised you wanted to meet so soon," Heather says respectfully."I want us to be on the same page with this investigation. Also, I thought it would be good to get to know each other better and ease any concerns." Casey casually states."Concerns?" Heather worriedly asks."If the press finds out that there has been someone stealing millions of dollars for years on end completely unchecked then there would be significant and possibly irreparable damage done to the company," Casey boldly states his greatest concern while a threatening undertone that Heather understands immediately."Casey I have no interest in running to the press with any of this. My career is just starting and I do not want to be known as the girl who turned on her employer the first chance she had. Discretion and loyalty are import

Information that could destroy the company and the family if it ever went public! How could you be so– so stupid as to bring in other people before bringing this to me? I am the first and only person you come to when there is a problem connected to my company– Do I make myself clear?"

The Billionaire's Heir: Loving the Son of a Murderer Chapter 47: Searching
Casey's POV"Are you sure this is the address Heather sent you? It's just a warehouse," Aidan asks, confused."Yes, I'm sure. This is the address. We figured out that dad owns several different warehouses in the city. He bought them all with different shell companies to keep anyone from tying him to the properties. We just didn't know which one was being used for the upcoming weapons sale. Heather said she was going to try to determine which one they were using. This is the address she gave me and I trust her," Casey says, trying to remain patient as he gives his brother a brief explanation.Part of Casey is furious with Heather. His father has made it clear that he is threatened by Heather, but she keeps moving forward with the investigation. Since Liam threatened to frame her for the embezzlement she has been all the more determined to take him down. Casey understands, and he feels just as outraged. He wishes she would have waited for him to go with her."Casey, I don't see any indi
The Billionaire's Heir: Loving the Son of a Murderer Chapter 46: Kidnapped
Heather's POVFreezing cold water hits Heather's face and thrusts her into consciousness."I knew you were trouble, but I had no idea you were this much trouble," a female voice speaks from behind Heather.Heather ignores the voice and takes a moment to try to figure out where she is and what is happening to her. She feels her entire body shivering. She looks down and notices that her feet are bare and she has been stripped of everything but her bra and panties. "Ignoring me won't work! You have no idea what you have stumbled onto you ignorant whore. I know you must be desperate to stay close to Casey, but going after his father is not the way to do it," Meredith Dillon sneers as she walks up to Heather and pulls at her hair for her to look up. The pain in Heather's head is making itself known. Whatever was used to knock her out certainly left its mark. She can feel blood dried in her hair and congealed at the base of her neck. However, she cannot worry about that injury right now.

Casey's POV"Casey we have to talk about dad. I don't know what is going on, but he has completely lost his mind!" Aidan says as he bursts into Casey's office. Casey had been trying to focus on his work in an attempt to keep himself calm. It seems that idea is futile as he has spent most of the morning worrying about Heather. Now, his brother is coming with more problems."What is happening now? And just tell me the facts, Aidan. I don't have the energy to deal with your dramatic embellishment," Casey says wearily. "Dad is telling the entire public relations department to prepare for a major press conference in three days. When I asked him what it was about, he told me he is going to announce that he uncovered a major plot against him and that the individuals involved stole millions of dollars from the company. He assured me that the accounts will not be missing a single cent by the time we hold the press conference. Also, he says there will be several high-profile arrests and I sho

Heather's POV"Casey, what are you doing here?" Heather asks as she opens the door.Heather is shocked to see Casey at her door. He looks absolutely shattered and is unable to talk. She guides him through the doorway and sits him on her couch. Casey seems completely detached and Heather knows something terrible must have happened. She looks out the door to check for threats or anyone watching, but she does not see anyone. After closing and locking the door, Heather returns to Casey. She can tell that whatever happened has messed with his mind. He is staring off into the distance and his breathing is becoming erratic. A panic attack is building. "Casey, talk to me. I'm worried," Heather says as she rubs her hands up and down his arms. When he is unable to respond, Heather turns to the methods that have helped with his panic attacks before."I'm here, Casey. You aren't alone. Remember the breathing exercises we have been working on together. You are safe with me in my apartment. When

Heather's POV"What the hell are you doing in my office?" Heather says her voice raised with anger.Liam Sullivan just smirks at her in response. She just endured lunch with Casey and his mother and sister. Now she finds Liam sitting at her desk."This is my company, Ms. Winters. I can go wherever I like, including your office. I should say especially your office. Since you are overstepping in your efficiency review," Liam's voice is cold as he speaks.Heather is instantly terrified. She knew Liam could figure out that she is investigating him, but she convinced herself that she was safe. Her mother was killed because she was a witness who saw too much. He could just as easily kill her. However, she has to remain calm. She doesn't know how much Liam knows and cannot afford to give anything away."How is it I am overstepping, sir? I believe everything I have done has fallen within the directive given to me by your son," Heather says, keeping her voice even.Liam stalks around her desk
