Chapter 539
“Where is he?!” Avery demanded coldly as she stood in the living room.
David signaled his underlings with his eyes, and they immediately went to fetch Wesley.
Moments later, Wesley was dragged out by two men in black.
Avery’s entire body stiffened as she could not believe her eyes.
Wesley was bloodied and covered in bruises. There was not one spot on his body that was untouched.
David shrugged, then explained, “You should thank me, Mis Tate. If I didn’t catch him in time, this idiot would have already jumped off the cliff and turned into a rotten corpse!
“Jump off the cliff?!” Avery thought.
There was, in fact, a cliff outside the mansion.
Wesley actually tried to jump off of it!
Did he rather throw himself off the cliff than reveal her identity or continue being tortured?!
Tears instantly rolled down Avery’s cheeks.
“Wesley!” She rushed over to Wesley and held him in her arms. “Wesley! I’m sorry! It’s all my fault!”
Wesley did not move a muscle and was unconscious.
Avery sobbed with him in her arms, then quickly pulled herself together and snapped, “Get me a first aid kit right away!”
David shot a look at his underlings, and they immediately fetched over a first aid kit.
Avery pushed through her heartache and tended to Wesley’s wounds.
Once she was done bandaging him, she glared at David with reddened eyes and said through gritted teeth, “Get your men to take him to the hospital! Right now! Immediately! If he dies, I won’t help you with anything even if you kill me!”
David impatiently waved at his underlings.
“Okay!”
The jet landed in Bridgedale after a ten-hour flight.
At that moment, it was eight in the morning in Bridgedale.
Hayden and Layla were the first to notice Mike in the bustling arrival hall.
Elliot saw Mike’s haggard and gloomy face.
Were things really that serious?
The entourage got into two separate cars.
Elliot’s Adam’s apple bobbed in his throat, and he could not help but ask Mike, “What’s the situation right now? Avery..”
“Wesley’s at the hospital. Let’s go see him first!” Mike said as he cut Elliot off mid-sentence, then added irritatedly, “Those f*cking b*st*rds! We need to get Avery out of there as soon as possible!”
