Chapter 5 : She is not that innocent

This time...there was no room for negotiation. All she needed is to get those guys and make them suffer the same fate as Lyla.

" She is dead? who killed her and why are you only telling me this now? ", Alain might not know Lyla personally, but for a fact he knew that he and Esme were inseparable. So it was painful for him...because it must be more painful for Esme to lose her only friend.

" I just found out and called you. The police have also got involved in the whole matter, So whatever we do now...we have to be careful ", Esme explained.

And Alain was just silly shock. If police was involved, there's no way they should try anything funny.

" If the police is involved, I think we should let the fund out the real murderer of Lyla, that would be best for everyone ", He said.

But Esme doesn't think the same as him, she shook her head. " I don't have any faith of the lawful fools, they can do nothing right. Even if they are to find the real murdered, what punishment fo you think that bastard will get? lock up in jail for three years or maybe five years? and then he might get release...I don't want him to spend his days with such a ease. I must punish them myself ", She was cleared.

As a daughter of the mafia, it doesn't give her any room to trust others rather than herself, she is very skeptical and realistic.

" Alright! wait for my news ", Alain understood and asked her no question after that.

" Be quick " , Esme hung up the called after saying so.

Esme didn't stay there any longer and left to her new place, she was sad and needed some time to get over this pain.

Even though Joseph was investigating the surrounding, he didn't get any good feeling from Esme.

" Marlyn, keep me update with that woman. She doesn't give me good feeling. Until we don't find the real culprit, keep her in the suspect list ", Said Joseph as he looked at Esme's retracting figure from the window.

Marlyn eyed the retracting future but to be honest, she found nothing abnormal about Esme.

" Boss! your instinct are pretty high. I didn't find anything suspicious about her...she looks innocent ", Said marlyn what she had in her mind.

" Things are not as they appear on the surface. Keep an eye on her ".

" I understand ".

Esme returned to her new place, dejected and looking at the sky as to what and when things went wrong.

After returning to her room, she just laid there, thinking about the moments when she was with Lyla and reminiscing in her own pain, tears rolling through her eyes but there was no voice to those tears, she was silent and had no expression on ber face. As if...she was a doll who had no emotions left.

" So many promises...and all are incomplete. Just when I decided to tell you who I am, you left me. You know? I got kidnapped in your stead, went into the monster's den and killed them all...just for you. But just when I decided to uncover myself in front of you, you didn't wait for me. It's funny, right? yeah...it must be ".

Who knows what was going on in her mind, shading tears and laughing like a psycho, but without any emotions...it was surely a big blow to her.

She was so upset that she didn't even realise when her eyes fell down, she fall into the abyss.

Only when her phone started ringing nonstop, did she woke up from that abyss.

" Who's this? ", She picked up the called while in that half asleep state.

" Esme! It's me, Alain. I have found out who went to meet Lyla before her death. It's Daug...Lyla's ex boyfriend ".

It was Alain on the other side of the phone. The moment she heard the news, she recovered from the sleep state and sit straight, blood boiling when he mention that jerk.

" His address? ".

" No one knows where he lives. But I know where you can find him. Daug always goes to Millan Bar every Friday, and today happens to be the Friday. He goes there to hook up new girls...", Alain gave out all the information he got from his sources.

" Millan Bar...alright. Thank you for helping me... bye ".

A place where all the high class and rich place gather, also the place where jerks and bastards prefer to go...Millan Bar.

Esme smirk devilishly, blood boiling in her heart but still had that smile on the surface for decoration. " Daug, see you soon...".

She clenched her first in anger and left into the washroom.

After an hour,

She arrived at the Millan Bar, standing outside and looking around.

Just for tonight....she was dress up nicely. Full face make up to hide her face, super revealing clothe, and those high heels. Today...even if a celebrity is to see her, he will fall for her. So Daug was no big deal.

Just as she was about to entered, Alain pulled her on the side.

He was dress up nicely as well...

" Alain? Why are you here? ", She asked him as she was stunned to see him here.

" I am here to keep you company. Haven't you heard this before? Partners in crime...".

He joke around.

" Don't play with me. I need no company, go back ", Esme was pretty rough with him, telling him to return without any empathy in her words or face.

She didn't wait for him to say no and pushed him aside and went inside. After getting in, her eyes were constantly finding Daug...

But one thing she needed to assure was...her face.

One of the advantage of coming to this bar was...a persona doesn't need to reveal his identity. On the entrance, there was a fancy table. And there were masks on it. Esme grabbed one and walked towards Daug.

The moment people spot her, they started whispering between each other and looking at her hot body constantly...

" Why do you come here every Friday? ", A man asked Daug.

" Hey handsome...".
