Scarlett's POV:" You really wouldn't like me to repeat myself Scarlett because if I do you won't like the consequences that follows,"There was no escape route now and I knew that I was indeed in trouble. I could feel the heavy pound of my heart as I tried to come up with a lie in a way that I was sure he would believe me.Basically, he had been the one to drag me into his room since I was standing at his door contemplating if I should go in or return back later even though he had specifically given me five minutes to meet with him. Eventually, he showed up at the door as though he had sensed my presence and gripped my arm and pulled me in.His question now was something I couldn't find an answer to...well I couldn't tell him that the reason I left was because I was nervous...it sounded ridiculous and stupid, knowing the kind of person he was, he would definitely hang my neck if I ever told him that. " I..."" Aren't you ever better at anything than faking or trying to come up with l

" Are you done? Queenie?"I heard Jones' worried voice calling from outside. I hurriedly wiped off the stain of blood from my ear, wiping my face altogether before drying it with the towel I found here.It wasn't long after we left the beach that my ear had begun to bleed again. It was a good thing Jones didn't get the chance to see it so basically I had to find an excuse to use to be able to get away from him and I was glad I succeeded.Now here I was, wiping the blood away and flushing it down the sink. I walked out of the bathroom, earning a sigh of relief from Jones who dashed over to me, the concerned look in his face couldn't be hidden, that look of his...it touched my heart." Are you okay? You took longer than I expected,"I smiled." Yes, because it was unexpectedly stronger than I expected. You know, that stuff...I had to push them all out with all my strength, it was_"" What!"I chuckled at his now confused face." My poop,"With his expression, I could tell he looked surp

Scarlett's POV: I opened my eyes to see the sunlight reflecting into the room. I found myself lying on the comfy bed, Jones was nowhere to be seen. I sat up on the bed and when I did, I felt a terrible headache practically knocking me out. I winced in pain until I was able to recall everything that had happened from last time. From the drinks, to emotional talks and confession of feelings and then to his room where he showed me a painting that he made out of heartbreak. He basically offered it to me and I collected it without any disapproval. We had somehow fallen asleep.As I looked around I heard some whispers coming from the living room. It didn't sound like Jones, instead it sounded like some angry lady who had been robbed of her money or something. I got up from the bed and hastily walked out and got into the living room where I saw Jones with a brunette lady. Quite tall with a body like that of a female athlete. My presence seemed to be acknowledged because she stopped talking

Scarlett's POV: Dead! I gasped with my hand covering my mouth. My ears widened as if they were set on fire by the unexpected news that just left Sonia's mouth. My tears continued to roll down and I sat there in a cloud of shock. I couldn't even say a word. Sonia still had the phone placed on her ear. Her face was flushed from her crying and tears. This was tragic! I cannot believe it. Sam was dead? But how? When? Where? Why? And if it was true that he was dead then what could possibly be the reason behind his death or maybe there was a mix up somewhere. Maybe he wasn't dead, it could just be a random guy who was found dead and he happened to bear the same name as Sam and then coincidentally Sonia's number happened to be the same as his relative. Damn! What was I even saying, it doesn't even make any sense. Dead or not we needed to see for ourselves." Okay, I'll be there," Sonia said and hung up. I stared at her and saw the pain in her eyes, those eyes of hers reflected pain, nothing

Scarlett's POV:We got to the inspector's office where I saw Sonia sitting across from the inspector. The inspector looked up at us the moment we walked in and so did Sonia. I saw how bloody her eyes were, even the make up she had on her face had been messed by her tears. The inspector saw us and sheepishly smiled before gesturing to any of us to sit down on the seat across from him which was next to Sonia, well I did the honor by taking the seat. He stared at me and his smile increased." Can I please see the body?" I requested but my request was declined by the inspector who negatively shook his head before leaning forward to me." His body was taken away a long time ago, it's at the morgue," he replied. His voice sounded like an alto-like voice, deep yet calm. I nod my head at his response. So that literally meant that Sonia had followed them to the morgue which was probably at the hospital." Well then, I need to know if this is authentic or not, I need verification, enough proof t
