Chapter 33 His end

“It’s been a week since the tragic end of the Winston group’s heir, Harry Winston. His death was

accompanied by the Winston group declaring bankruptcy after the anti-money laundering

commission seized all their assets.”

Tessa furrowed her eyebrows, anger surging through her at the mention of Harry Winston on the

He was the talk of the City. All his illegal businesses had come to the surface and how he used prohibited drugs in his pharmaceutical company was exposed.

Michelle clicked her tongue and folded her arms as they watched the news in the visitors’ lounge at the company.

She wrinkled her nose in disgust and said, “It is true what they say. You can never know someone completely until they show you their true colours Who would have thought Harry was a hardcore

criminal?”

Tessa sighed and replied, “He was so sincere that I would never place him as someone who would do such a thing. I was so grateful that he helped Mom get better. Who knew he would turn on my kids and kidnap them? I feel so guilty that I made them trust someone who hurt them.”

It had been a hard week for Tessa. Having someone she trusted betray her like that was like a punch in the gut.

She recalled how Aaron warned her about him. By that time, she found it hard to believe that Harry had purposely approached her. Heck, even if he had, he had helped her mother so she didn’t

think much about it.

However, human trafficking was a very serious crime. And to make her marry him, Harry orchestrated a plan to kidnap the triplets so that he could play the hero.

Tessa’s heart ached when she recalled the last conversation she had with him before he jumped off a cliff.

~FLASHBACK~

The children spent some days in the hospital. Both Tessa and Aaron stayed with them. They took care of them together, alternating between feeding them and giving them baths to regulate their temperature.

By this time, the news was out there. Aaron had spread the news of Harry’s crimes to make everyone know he was a wanted criminal.

Their parents soon found out about the kidnapping, so they visited the kids at the hospital.

Elena, Edmund and Aaron were all chatting with the kids so Tessa excused herself.

She hadn’t talked to Edmund since that day when he told her Aaron would marry Serena Staying in the same room with him was making her feel uncomfortable.

A bodyguard followed her as she went up to the roof to get some fresh air. When she reached, her phone suddenly rang

Tessa’s heart jumped to her throat when she saw who was calling.

It was none other than, Harry Winston.

The man who was wanted for kidnapping, murder, human trafficking, tax evasion and many other

crimes.

Anger surged through Tessa when she recalled how weak her kids had been. The doctor said they might not have woken up if the drugs had stayed in their system.

Filled up with fury, Tessa picked up the call and snapped, “You sure have some nerve, Harry. How could you? The kids liked you! They called you uncle! They trusted you! How could an adult who was supposed to protect them do such a thing?! Are you even human?”
