53- To Begin Again (Part-1)

Pacing back and forth with cigar in his one hand Alejandro Galitzine was counting on FBI to break in anytime soon.

"You trust her?"

He asked his son who was standing at the side watching his dad cool and calm in such a tension. Nicholas shook his head in disagreement because that was the truth, he couldn't trust Hannah who was now arrested.

"Ofcourse how can you trust that bitch who shot Camila without letting us know." He replied now taking seat on a sofa. "They would be in their way."

"What should we tell them?" Nicholas asked.

"Nothing!"

"Nothing??" He frowned in confusion.

"Yeah nothing.....we have nothing to tell them..that's what we would've done if we were innocent right?"

"Yeah but We are not..Hannah probably is a living evidence. "

"You forgot Diego. "

"I-" He didn't know his father was upto.

"Look they are witnesses of our illegal deeds but Camila is the real witness of the murder and someone who could stand face to face to me..someone who's a real challenge for us and someone people will easily gonna believe in a second and we won't leave with anything in hand."

"I don't understand. "

"Sometimes I doubt you are my own blood.." Alejandro spat. "We can't escape but we can delay the case. We can take stay orders from court by using our influence..I mean my influence."

"And what will we do in that time."

"Make sure to put Camila to death."

"But."

"She owns half the shares I know but we have no other choice..either keep her alive and spend the whole life in jail or kill her and spend the rest of our lives owning 50% of shares. What should we choose? You tell." He asked his son.

"First option but if she didn't survive already we would not have to work."

"Exactly!! That's why we'll have to drag this case to act upon our next strategy."

"Sir!"

Alejandro turned to pay attention towards his man.

"What's the news?" He asked directly.

"Ma'am Camila came to senses. She's alive."

"Shit!" Nicholas cursed.

"So now we just have to act upon our plan." Alejandro said. "sorry sweetheart, I loved you but you were unfortunately just like your father."

           ........................................................

A smile instantly came on his face as soon as he heard that Camila opened her eyes. Now passing through the emergency ward, he was feeling like he was finally going to heaven. He saw Camila's limp figure laying on the bed with her eyes closed and moved closer to her.

"Is she sleeping?" He asked the nurse standing there writing something on her pad.

"No she isn't..she's still under affect of drugs so she is dizzy." The nurse told. "I'll go and leave you alone." She added smiling at him, as she grabbed her folder and moved outside.

Shawn gently took a seat on the bed near her body and grabbed her one hand in his own while he used other hand to move her hair locks away from her face and tucked them behind her ear. She stirred a bit but didn't open her eyes.
