902 Words
Domenico hold a torch, Matteo reported back to him, we've searched the whole area, no one sees her.
He stood staring at the ship, that means she went missing on this ship.
The ship!, Matteo looked surprise.
Gather the boys, let's cheek the ship again, he climb onto the ship looking around carefully, he stopped where he found the blood in the afternoon, the blood stain is gone.
What is it?.
The blood is gone, someone has cleaned it.
The person must have something to hide, Matteo said.
The girl, tell them to stop searching and get into the water, she could be down there.
They've been under the sea for hours, I don't think she's there.
They must not stop, Domenico looked at Matteo, tell them not to stop until she is found.
Alright, he responded in a grumpy manner, he mumbled to himself, am tired guarding all day now this, I need a rest.
One of the boys brought out Gabriella's corpse carried on his shoulder up to the ship, he placed her body on the cold floor, Laura's eyes met her wide open eyes looked away in a jiffy.
Matteo looked surprised, she really is dead.
Domenico bent down trailed his eyes on her body spotted the wound on her stomach, she was stabbed to death, he looked up at Laura avoiding his eyes, something happened this afternoon.
Matteo cut in between his words, we found her that's what we needed, whether dead or alive, throw the body back in the sea, he ordered the boys.
Domenico glared at him, no one makes the order while am here, we take her back to the hideout with us.
What for?, Matteo flared up, she’s just a mule, no one special, just toss her back in the sea and we are free of this.
Don't make me repeat myself, the boys carried her body to the car put it in the truck, Domenico held Laura hand, you will tell me what happened here.
Am telling the truth, I don't know what happened, we were together but all of a sudden she disappeared, Laura thought to herself, if I say what I saw Antonio will not hesitate to kill me just the way he did to Gabriella.
Barbara stood on the terrace speaking on the phone looked out the gate, she hung up immediate she saw Alessia's car coming in rushed down to the door to stop Alessia from entering.
Good morning Barbara.
Barbara smirked, what good about the morning, you were here late last night and here you are this morning again.
I have something important to report to Alessandro, let me in.
No I won't, go and wait for him in the office or wherever you meet, this is my house and I will let whoever I want to let into my house.
Alessia laughed at her, In case you forget, am his secretary and I have the right to come in this house whenever I feel like it, you just his mistress forcing yourself on him.
Shut the f**k up, am his mistress so what, at least he looks at me but he will never look at you so stop wasting your time and find someone who loves you.
Take your advice and find someone who love you as well because you won't last with him.
Get in here Alessia, Alessandro speaks on a low but dominating voice.
Alessia eyed Barbara, she stepped aside for her to enter glared at her as she walked in.
What is it?.
What is wrong with your phone?, I kept calling but no respond.
Am sorry, someone must have touched my phone, he looked at Barbara, tell me, what is the matter?.
The girl was found dead in the sea, we thought she ran away but it turns out it is not.
She is a disposable element, what the cause for alarm in that.
Alessandro, this is not a simple matter, I would have thought the same but, Domenico said she was stabbed to death, so her death is not ordinary. maybe we should start asking Barbara here who else was on the ship yesterday that we are not aware of.
What stupid question is that, you know everyone that was on that ship including my friends.
Just give her a straight answer, who else was there?.
What is going on with you two, you saw everyone, didn't you?.
Have you been able to get hold of Antonio?.
Not yet, maybe I will check his house.
Look who's missing me this early in the morning, Antonio speaks as he walked in.Where thee hell have you been?, Alessia flared up at him.
Relax, what your problem?, I was at home all night.
Gabriella is dead, Alessia yelled to his face.
What!, how's that possible?.
Exactly, if you had been available last night we would have done something.
Okay fine, am here now so stop shouting at me, I will find out what's going on.
You better do, Barbara cut in between his words, because our dear Alessia here wants to hold me responsible for what happened.
I will, it was your party.
Bitch, Barbara raise her hand to slap Alessia, Alessandro grabbed her hand from the back to stop her, she looked at him furious snapped her hand away and stormed out of the house.
Antonio go with Alessia and find out what happened.
