All Chapters of Unmasking the Heiress: Chapter 841 - Chapter 850

"Are we... safe now?" David's voice was tinged with disbelief as his eyes fluttered open.Celina's worried face was the first thing he saw."You okay?"He clutched her hand, eyes wide, as if he needed to check her over to be sure she was really all right.Celina nodded hard. "I'm fine, we're both fine!""Thank goodness you're fine."David finally relaxed, his mind slowly piecing together the memories before everything went black."Yeah, I remember now, we were in trouble, and then there was a gunshot… Someone saved us, didn't they?"As Celina nodded, David felt a wave of gratitude. To think that in a foreign land, someone had the courage to pull them from the jaws of danger."Who was it? We need to find them and say thanks."Celina looked lost for a moment. "I don't know who it was. You were bleeding everywhere, and Ms. Evangeline's people came to get us. It was all so rushed, I didn't see..."Her voice trailed off as she remembered the slender silhouette.That figure…A f

David gestured dismissively, his eyes quickly scanning the room, landing on Evangeline, Celina, and Roslyn.Those three were Evangeline's inner circle, the ones she trusted implicitly. If they were solid, so was he."There's a Bennison among us in Gordon Group, and it's very likely Alex.""Alex?" Roslyn could not hide her shock."Alex is Walter's older brother, right? Gordon Group is part of his empire. Why would he want a deal like the Southern Crownlands diamond mine that's bleeding money? Mr. Zimmer, are you sure you're not chasing shadows?"Roslyn had her doubts, and so did Evangeline. However, after David filled her in with the details, she was almost certain—there was a 90 percent chance Alex was the mole.Alex, with his knack for playing long games and a grudge against the Gordon Group that went way back, saw his golden opportunity.To him, seizing control of the company was all that mattered. Who cared if it seemed like a bad deal at first? He was smart enough to turn th

"Okay, have you set up a time? If it's good for you, I can come over right now."The people David arranged were highly reliable. When Evangeline got to Gordon Group, a security guard handed her a USB drive, no questions asked.Sifting through hours of security footage was like running a marathon with her eyes. When she did not even know where to start looking, it was more like a wild goose chase.David had to make a guess based on a tip-off from Walter to pinpoint when someone had inked their name on a contract.Celina watched over David, glued to the computer screens, while Evangeline and Roslyn took on the video vigil.Roslyn watched Evangeline's eyes go bloodshot from the strain and felt a tug at her heartstrings. She wanted to just power down the computer and call it a day. However, she knew that would only leave Evangeline more crushed than ever…Little did Evangeline know, she and Walter were like two sides of the same coin, caught up in the same task at the same moment.W

Could it be that Evangeline's efforts were hidden somewhere in that 10-minute-long video?Walter might have left the company, but he was not out of the loop when it came to its affairs.The moment the USB was handed over by the company staff, someone had filled him in.He was so intent on watching the entire video that he ignored the report.That report had come in less than 36 hours ago.With so much footage and no exact time to go on, finding the man in white was like searching for a needle in a haystack. To identify a suspect in such a short time was extremely difficult.Someone must have been glued to the screen, watching the footage around the clock to have edited that clip so quickly…That person could not possibly be the injured David, nor could it be Celina who was caring for him.David's voice was still talking in the background."As of now, we've identified the man in the video, he is... Alex."Alex, Walter's own brother, was the last person anyone expected to be ca

When Walter looked up again, he was a man transformed.That enigmatic grin, those deep, unreadable eyes—David could tell, the boss was about to make his move. He could not wait to see what was going to happen next!"Mr. Walter Gordon, don't you think Mr. Alex Gordon rushed back to the company a little too eagerly?"They were not in any rush. However, Alex, who had strutted back into the company like he owned the place, was about to have his world rocked.Only the video they held could show that the contract Gordon Group had with the Southern Crownlands government was not signed by Walter himself.So, if Alex did not get his hands on that video to prove the contract with the Southern Crownlands government was a no-go, he was stuck playing by the rules, or else he would be coughing up a fortune in fines.Walter scoffed. "Man, I've been biding my time for years, and now that I've got a shot at getting back in the game, you think I'm going to relax?"David gave him a knowing look, b
