Your Gold Digger is Actually A True Heiress by Vera Fiore

Chapter 87

Meanwhile, on Asher’s side.

Vanessa had her throat slit by the guard assigned to watch her at the facility. She died instantly,

The killer was quickly subdued by other personnel at the facility.

Before Asher could arrive, the murderer had already died, blood flowing from his seven orifices

When Asher reached the basement of the facility, Vanessa was already covered with a white sheet, lying in a large pool of blood.

The man with blood streaming from his eyes, ears, nose and mouth lay in the blood pool next to Vanessa.

The man was Gary, one of the operatives who worked for Asher at the facility,

Lucas, the facility manager, stood beside Asher, trembling as he explained: “Sir, Gary and Robert were on duty tonight. Gary, apparently acting on someone’s orders, suddenly attacked Vanessa, His strike was swift and precise, hitting a vital spot. Robert tried to intervene, but it was too late.”

Asher’s brow furrowed deeply as he stared at the horrific, vivid pool of blood on the floor. His voice betrayed no emotion: “Someone wanted to silence her permanently.”

Lucas wiped the cold sweat from his brow and suddenly dropped to his knees. “Sir, I await your punishment!”

Asher spoke dispassionately: “What’s done is done. Call the police.”

Lucas looked up. “But sir, if we notify the police, we could be charged with unlawful detention…”

Asher’s cold gaze flicked toward him, and before he could speak, Lucas quickly added: “I was responsible for unlawfully detaining Vanessa. I’ll turn myself in.”

Asher’s lips tightened as he contemplated the dead man with blood seeping from his orifices. “Who does Gary have in his family?”

Lucas replied: “He’s forty, unmarried with no children. His only family is his elderly mother, who’s in her sixties and in poor health.”

“Where is his mother now?”

Lucas was startled. “This happened so suddenly, I… Sir, I’ve been negligent!”

Asher’s expression darkened. “He was clearly coerced. His mother is likely already in their hands. I fear the worst has happened. Lucas, you’ve disappointed me greatly…”

Lucas bowed his head. “Sir, I’m prepared to accept any punishments

Asher’s eyes frosted over. “Someone knew about Gary’s family situation and used his mother as leverage to threaten him. It seems this perpetrator..”

Lucas looked shocked. “Sir, are you suggesting.?*

A cold gleam flashed in Asher’s eyes. “We have a mole among us. Have someone else handle the confession. You focus on getting to the bottom of this.”

Lucas nodded gravely. “Yes, sir!”
