Amirah’s Pov
“Say yes.. ” Paisley whispered and we heard a loud thud plundering down the floor the event was at the first floor so we could still hear what ever thud to the floor.
“What the hell was that? ” Paisley gave the camera man her phone and runs up to find out with a few of the crowd, I followed to see the most horrific thing.
“Fuck, that’s Regina.” Paisley screamed in terror to see Regina dead and lying in her cold blood. Some passerbys stopped in awe and horror while a few took pictures and recorded it, a few people on the top floor muttered taking pictures and recording it.
I took a clear look at her face, she looked like she was scared someone in this building killed her.
~~~~~~~~~~
Back in Nashville
The death of Regina was a shocking one, it was all over the news, Albanian prime minister’s daughter dies.
After the premiere Hunter insisted we flew back to Nashville probably it was an attack gone wrong and it happened when I was around so probably they wanted to kill me but sadly they killed Regina instead.
I know Regina isn’t a good person and she was horrible towards me but she didn’t have to die because of me, Paisley stayed in Romania for a while until she finished her contract and edit the shots for the video, she’ll be back in a few days.
I was at home eating ice cream I know I’m not supposed to ear probably when my life is in danger but you ain’t going to tell me not to stuff my face when I’m stressed.
I stride to the living room to see Hunter with Thiago and Kaleb, Hunter didn’t notice me he was too busy finding out who was responsible for Regina’s death and was worried they would come after me.
“What does the press says?? ” Hunter asked folding his arms, there were a bunch of other men in black it made me feel frail as the only female here.
“The media presses the act as suicide after you confessed on live tv to Amirah, they assumed she couldn’t handle the fact of not being with you and they know very well her scandalous obsession over you so she killed herself, if this is true then the risk of Amirah being in danger is deflated.” Kaleb said I stood idle, Regina didn’t kill herself if she did she wouldn’t have to that look in her eyes.
Of course she would have been scared but the fear written on her face when I saw it someone killed her and me believing that fact is a high level of me being the next victim.
“What does her father say ?”
“Her father said you use the confession as a distraction so you could kill her as revenge for him hiding Aarav and for she revealing Amirah’s identity and he knew his daughter would kill Amirah so you had to kill her first.” Kaleb said and finally Thiago noticed me and walks up to me bored.
“You’re back and you are eating ice cream when your life is in danger? ” he arches a brow and I nodded.
“Just because my life is in danger doesn’t mean I won’t eat.” I muttered as he rolled his eyes.
“I heard Hunter dicked you congratulations.” I cringed and dropped the plate from my grasps, my cheeks heat up and if I didn’t want attention before I got it now.
“Are you okay? ” Hunter asked Thiago snickered at me while Hunter made his way towards me, all eyes followed Hunter’s direction as he pushed my hair strand back.
“I’m.. I’m fine.” I stuttered falling my face to the floor to glass plate that was broken.
“Don’t touch that.” he stopped me and looks back at Thiago. “Clean this up.” he glares at him while I stuck my tongue out to Thiago, he rolled his eyes at me while I grinned in victory.
“Where is Regina’s body? ” Hunter asked Kaleb who was going through his tablet.
“They shipped it back here in Nashville, we have access to examine the body as far as now we know nothing.” Kaleb said.
“What about hacking the satellites or the cctv cameras can’t we get anything? ” Hunter asked almost hopeless.
“Surprisingly they blocked all information about what happened that night, who ever killed Regina is good and got away with pretty easily.” Kaleb said.
“There is only one person that can commit a crime and get away with it so easily.” Thiago mummered picking up the glass.
“Correct, my guess is your uncle Caine.” Kaleb suggested.
“Impossible my uncle is overseas hiding away from my wrath, he knows the moment he oversteps his boundaries I’ll kill him.” Hunter said and my thoughts landed on Alec, he killed 15 thugs without a trace, Hunter doesn’t even know.
I tried to shake off the thoughts but it all landed at Alec, maybe he wanted to kill Hunter but killed Regina by accident or something.
“Do you know something? ” Hunter noticed my worried expression and I froze at first and then shook my head.
“No it’s just a stupid thought.” I voiced as he nodded.
They went back to discussing while I thought more about Alec being Regina’s killer.
“I want to find out who killed Regina and I want the person dead.” Hunter told Kaleb and the rest of the men in black as they nodded, he walks up to me and kissed me on my lips, my cheeks mellows a bit.
“Take care of yourself.” he says before glaring at Thiago who was done picking up the glass.
“Stay with Amirah for today.” Hunter says and leaves.
“God I hate babysitting you.” Thiago groaned throwing himself back on his chair.
“I think I have an idea of who killed Regina.” I thought to myself quietly.
“Who? ” he asked.
“Where’s Regina’s mom residing? ” I asked
“London, why are you asking? ” Thiago grew curious. “Good let’s go to London.” I skipped like a 15 year old spoiled brat.
“You wanna go to London, that will take 8 fucking hours.” Thiago argued.
“I know but we can find who’s responsible for the death of Regina we just need to talk to her mother.” I said going up to pick my jacket, I was already wearing a dress. “Hunter Is going to kill me if I don’t bring you back.” Thiago groaned.
“So you better bring me back.” I stuck my tongue at him.
I had to wear a black mask because apparently I’m a big thing In London, can you believe delulus dug up my past pictures claiming I’m the daughter of the late secretary after finding out Hunter proposing to me in Romania, some think it’s fake because they claim I’m dead while others think I’m alive and are going gaga over the fact that I managed to get a billionaire.
Hunter doesn’t know I’m going to London but he’ll find out later we both boarded a plane to London to see Regina’s mother.
She was staying in her multi million apartment, we rang the bell and she welcomed us in.
She had her eyes on Thiago which I cringed at.
“Thanks for having us Miss..”
“Call me Campbell I like being referred to my last name.” she smiled hinting she was still single to Thiago.
“So what brings the heiress to my humble home.” I looked at her carefully and confused.
“Heiress? ” I asked confused.
“Don’t be so modest don’t you know your father was the heir to an empire before he died likely it was strangely on hold but since you came back you have the right to inherit everything.” I thought about the properties that’s what the lawyer was talking about an empire?
“to be honest I knew nothing about this.” I said and she looked amused.
“I shouldn’t even be surprised your father wanted to give up the empire and switch to politics, he didn’t approve of the idea of running an Empire worth trillion of dollars, your family is filthy rich I must say I’m surprised you didn’t even know about your origin, your sister was supposed to inherit it but since she died I think you are now the last heiress.” I thought deeply about what she said.
“How do you know about all of this? ” I asked as she shut me a wide grin.
“I just happen to get my sources from the right place.” she said handing me some bowl of cookies.
“Then you can help us find out who killed Regina.” her face turned sour on hearing Regina’s name, she searched for her packet of cigarettes, she lit a stick and started smoking.
“I’m sorry about the death of your daughter.” I thought of consoling.
“Regina had millions of enemies being tight with underground drug lords I can’t exactly pin point who would kill Delialah, she mixed herself with the gore and followed her father’s footsteps, she has slept with different underground mafia’s maybe something went wrong and she was a pawn in their game.”
“You know about the underlords? ” I asked.
“Sweetie my ex husband was underground drug lord, I was a trafficker who found herself in Nashville and had sex with him even though he was married, I baby trapped him my only luck was that he loved Regina he divorced his ex wife and I married him after Regina was born, he was always spoiling her she was 8 when she started smoking.” I swallowed back my shock as she puffed in another smoke.
“I lost my best friend the only one who cared about me to death, I tried mingling her with good people but at the end she had an obsession with the overlord of darkness, Hunter Dominiquez. What ever she did to get into trouble I tried my best to get her to live a normal life.” she said and me and Thiago shared each other looks.
“So you don’t have a slight idea on who killed Regina? ” I asked.
“I don’t want to point fingers, I didn’t have control over Regina’s life but she was always blinded by her obsession with Hunter I wanted her to live a normal life and I thought her previous marriage would contain, she is daughter and I will still weep for her but whoever killed her I wish wish them the same death.” she said I got up.
“I need to use the bathroom please.” she nodded and gave me directions to the bathroom while I locked myself in and pulled out my phone to call Alec.
I waited patiently until he picks the call both lines were silent none of us uttered a word.
“Have you heard the news that’s going viral? “I asked breaking the harsh silence.
“Regina’s death? What about it? ” he replied coldly.
“Did you kill Regina Hayles? ” I asked he went silent for a while.
“Are you going to assume I kill everyone now?” I could hear him snicker at me it disgusted me a bit.
“You don’t want me to know who killed my sister and I want to hear it from no one else but you Alec.” I said.
“I didn’t kill Regina good bye.” he hangs up while I flushed the toilet and washed my hands and head back to meet miss Campbell massaging Thiago, I took a pic to torture him later in the plane.
“Well thanks for your hospitality miss Campbell we’ll be on our way.” Thiago quickly got up and swiped my phone from my grasps probably to delete the picture.
Goodluck I put my phone on lock.
Thiago went out first and Miss Campbell picked up her tray of cookies, I was heading to the door when she pulled me and whispered into my ears.
“Be careful Amirah he wants you dead.” my heart sank down to my stomach.
“What? ” I muttered but she shoved me out of the house and shuts the door while I replay everything she said in my head.
“Who wants me dead? ” I muttered to myself.
