The Devil Within (S1)

Chapter 17

Hanna cried like her life depended on it. Seeing Amaara leaving the world was a dread of a sight to witness for her.

Elenora stayed silent and kept staring during the funeral.

"Where's her will? She must've known or was it a sudden death?" Tom asked nudging Hanna.

"I have no idea- I just went to her room in the morning and saw- I-" she broke down as Tom comforted her. "It's okay, we'll check her room once, maybe she knew."

"But how so sudden?" She cried more.

After the funeral, Elenora went straight towards her room and shifted her stuff upstairs to Amaara's room.

"Can I help you?" Hanna asked, her voice broken and her condition seemingly depressed.

"I consider you as the owner as ma'am has left, and you're her sister." Hanna said.

Elenora slightly nodded, "Just wanted to shift here with my sister."

Hanna nodded in understanding and helped her, but her gaze haulted on a letter on the bedside table, it was Amaara's will. She hurriedly opened it up and Elenora, unwillingly acted a little surprised. "What's this?"

"A will. Seems like she knew." Hanna quickly opened it and read it. According to the will, everything was now under Elenora's ownership, the bricks and mansion.

Elenora glanced once at Hanna and sat down on one of the couch.

"Amaara died!?" Taehyung asked surprised.

Josh gulped and nodded. "It is apparently not a murder and a natural death, and everything is now under Mrs. Kim."

Taehyung gulped a lump in his throat as his mind processed the situation. "It is not a natural death, Josh."

Josh frowned, "How do you know sir?"

"It's a murder." He chuckled.

Franz groaned and punched the wall multiple times and threw a glass, breaking it in extreme frustration. "She was fine and breathing a day ago and all of a sudden she died!?"

The man who delivered the news stood like a statue but trembled seeing the rage.

"Abduct her! Bring me that woman now! No matter how you do it! I need her!" He yelled at the man.

"S-sir- but it's impossible, she has a lot of securit-"

"I said, I. Need. Her. Now." He gritted and emphasized each word, making the man shiver in fear.

"I'll get the team right into it." He gulped.

"And make sure no one dares to touch her, take female staff with you." He warned.

"Yes sir."

Franz dialed a number, his eyes burning and his heart thumping loudly, after everything was going smoothly, how did Amaara even die!?

"Jungkook man, care to explain the actual fuck I just got updated on?" He grumbled as his chest heaved.

"I didn't go to the funeral because I am not ready to face Elenora...yet, but honestly speaking, Amaara was just fine a day ago, I myself don't get it." Jungkook spoke from the other side of the phone.

"I am doing things in my way then." Franz hung up the call as he brushed his fingers on his temples.

"This is deeply fucked."

The breathtaking woman back hugged the man standing while busy on his phone. "I missed you." She said, her voice low and soft.
