186 Sisters 1 (2/2)
”Second Miss.”
Aura suddenly called out to her and showed her an article on the tablet.
Alessa took a minute to scan her eyes over the texts. When she finished, a frown was on her face, and she stared alternately at the two. The content of the report was about a party held two weeks ago. When she thought back to it, it seemed everyone who was involved in today's series of events had participated there.
So her sister wanted to use that party as a common intersection between those who would have died and been injured? Wasn't Amelia being so thorough in this? Alessa hoped that woman breaks some expensive ornaments once she learns that the most important goal of her plan failed.
”This is just so insane. When did someone die in that event? Who's taking revenge against me again? Who is this Helena Larson and why is this report saying that it's me who orchestrated her death in front of many people just because she 'allegedly' threw a cup of red wine at me?”
The famed actress wanted to laugh at the ridiculousness of this made up story.
”Aura, please track down who put up and cooked up this ridiculous article and file a complaint against them. If it has to be brought to court, then so be it. Investigate this woman too. How come she's suddenly being linked to me when I can't even remember her face or name?”
She shook her head at the same that Aura nodded.
Alessa then inquired the thing she badly wanted to know.
”Did you manage to find out where he went after going out of my house? He is poisoned by then.”
Her face showed pain when she recalled the state he was in when he dashed out of her unit. It was only after his figure totally disappeared from her sight that she remembered the toxin was not only mixed with that lust-provoking drug but something more deadly.
'I'm stupid for only remembering now. Before he left, he kept reassuring me that he will be fine.'
Alessa really wanted to cry. She knew he was way more than capable. He's her pillar of support ever since that fateful day when he stood up for her against the demon-like director who wanted to suppress her when she was still a powerless newbie. That man became distant when popularity also caught up with him, even faster than her, still, she dearly loved him. What if he dies due to that, and he was merely putting up a stupid brave front?
”I should have gone after him. I should not have left him to go alone. It's me who caused him to be grazed by that dagger.”
Diaz and Aura exchanged knowing looks. It was the woman who decided to speak up. ”Second Miss. Actually, we only managed to track his car three hours ago which he parked in a hotel at West Alina. However, we can no longer locate him after. We, don't know what happened. But we're sure that he didn't go to any hospital or clinic within the city since we checked each of those along the way through our devices.”
Diaz followed up hesitantly, ”... To be honest, before arriving here, we tried to phone the guards where his penthouse is located. They said they didn't see him or his car arriving after he left around midnight. When Aura and I knocked to his door, there was also no answer. He could be there merely ignoring us. But since you said he's poisoned, there's a bigger chance that he's out seeking professional help.”
Silence reigned over them for some time.
Until the sole man in the living room chose to break it.
”I think we should ask for help from Miss Silver. I hate to admit this, but anyone from her information team is more capable than Aura and I combined. Miss Silver should have no problem helping us out with this since you're her artist, Second Miss. Mr. Meyer as well.”
Alessa was quite taken aback by the sudden suggestion. She looked down for a few seconds, her mind wondering to that another woman who could intimidate her so much more than her evil half-sibling. Sofony Silver, current acting CEO of Ever Victorious Corp., and owner of Starlight Entertainment, a woman of greater appearance and beauty than her, was someone she quite... envied and felt jealous of, for being as close to him...
In the end, she calmed her heart down and did as suggested. Picking up her phone, she dialed the Silver Princess' assistant's number and requested to speak with her.
Shortly after, when Alessa was done telling her purpose for the phone call, she listened to a very melodious voice which could even push Sofia's down the second place.
”.... Hmm. Chris Meyer's whereabouts?”
The next words transmitted to Alessa's ears shocked her to the core. ”I know it's quite bad to put it like this, but am I really the one you should be asking that? Aren't you supposed to be the last person he was with last midnight?”
”...”
