**The night of Liam's disappearance**

"I've already said I'll call the police if you two ask me one more question!" Liam announced.

"C'mon Liam," Harry snapped, "cut to the chase, we know you did it. Where's my sister?!"

"Fine," Liam sighed as he went behind the cabinet, "I am the reason she disappeared."

"I fucking knew it!" Eleanor breathed, angrily.

"Wanna know what I did?" Liam eyed them and let out a sadistic laugh.

"What?" Eleanor asked as she gulped heavily, knowing nothing good can come out of this.

"Wait a minute," Liam showed them a finger and put his other hand under the cabinet.

"What are you doing?!" Harry screamed as Liam brought out a gun and held it with both hands, pointing it at them.

"Are you crazy?!" Eleanor was astonished.

"You wanted to know, you'll know," Liam smirked, "but won't live to tell anyone."

Harry and Eleanor nervously looked at each other as Liam neared them, not putting the gun down. Instead, he pulled the trigger.

"Your neighbours will hear," Eleanor tried to reason.

"This gun is silenced, I barely have neighbours and the house is also sound-proofed." 

Eleanor jerked her head in defeat and Harry's hands started sweating. Liam laughed at their agony and neared them, tip of the gun almost touching Harry's chest.

"She found out, about me and Sophia, she said she was gonna divorce me," Liam started. "But that meant all we had in our joint account would be divided and I couldn't let that happen. So I killed her."

Harry and Eleanor gasped at that. Tears were rolling down Harry's eyes as he looked at Liam with fuming anger. Eleanor saw red, she couldn't believe Liam had the audacity to say it so nonchalantly. 

"Yep," Liam shrugged. "I took a metal wire I keep for self-defense purposes in my pocket and strangled her from the back when she turned around to answer her phone. Let's say, she never picked that call up."

Eleanor breathed heavily as she remembered she had called Gemma to ask if she was coming over or not and Gemma didn't answer. She didn't care much and thought Gemma was busy. It pained her to think Gemma was probably struggling for survival while she was preparing dinner. She hoped she understood the seriousness that night. 

"I packed her in a plastic garbage bag and buried her deep into the woods," Liam finished. "That's it. No one's ever gonna know."

"You bastard!" he whispered angrily, "you fucking killed my sister!"

"And now, I'm gonna kill you," Liam announced.

"YOU KILLED MY SISTER!!" Harry screamed at Liam and lunged at him. He tackled him to the floor as the gun flew out of his hand. 

Harry was quick to get up and grab the gun. Liam slowly got up and raised his hands to his head. "Harry, you can't do this," he challenged.

"Harry don't!" Eleanor ordered but Harry held the gun with both hands and aimed at Liam's heart.
