Her figure started trembling in fear as she was feeling her legs were getting weak. She tried to loosen his grip on her wrist but it was like if he was made of pure iron.
"Y-you can't touch me like this. This is w-wrong. Leave me- Ahh"
But he alrea...

IVAN'S POV:
Within few hours, we were back. I thought it more salutary to keep the discussion in my office. I already called Chris and he will also come there within some time. Since it's already 3:am of the night the area was darkly calm and quiet. So I dropped Anna in the mansion first. She was dug deep in her slumber, So I decided not to wake her up otherwise, she will start crying again.
She cried almost the whole journey. And afterward, she fell asleep.
She placed her on the soft mattress of our bed and covered her with the warm quilt she spontaneously gripped tightly while in her slumber.
"Sleep well, My sleeping beauty,"
Placing a soft peck on her right cheek, I decided to leave the bedroom not to disturb her dormant anymore.

"Now tell me everything, to the point," I asked, Chris, sighed leaning on the couch closing his eyes for a millisecond. I know he must be tired. After doing work for the whole damn day, everyone gets tired to their death.
But, the matter is important.
It is not someone ordinary, who died. It is Eleanor. She was the closest person to me when I was all alone. and her sudden death didn't seem to be cloudless to me. I need to drill deep wholes to find out about the happening.
There is something that is hidden behind these clear shades.
"We found her hanging with the ceiling fan. Eve is highly traumatized by witnessing the sight with her bare eyes," Chris sighed.
"How can it be?"
"Ivan,"
"It's not even that cloudless that we are thinking,"
"I know, I've already told you that something is hidden," Chris said.
"hmm, What about the autopsy?" Ivan asked making Chris nod. He took out something from his jacket placing it on the table sliding towards Ivan's direction.
"According to this report, some blisters on her neck were found, and also a high dose of sleeping pills was taken by her before she died,"
"What?"
Ivan was shocked by Chris's statement. Without any other second delay, He quickly opened the envelope unwrapping the autopsy report to read it. His eyes darkened with the analysis as Chris could sense it.
"There is something wrong, for certain," Ivan hissed whether Chris nodded in agreement. "I told our men to check Eleanor's apartment. If they get something, it could help us to clear the ambiguities," Chris said.
