"On June 1st around 9:30 pm, you entered the school swimming pool, Marina was there. You have quarreled and the tone has gone up between you. Then you caught the trophy and you crushed it with all your strength on her head. She's not dead right away, which means you've abandoned her. As she emptied of her blood."
Alba would have liked never to return to this famous police station. Unfortunately they had apparently found the culprit and they had gathered all the suspects in one room for the big revelation.
She could see Guzman and Ander side by side on the side of the room while Polo was behind them on a chair away from the others.
It was enough to catch her eye as she focused all her attention on him in suspicion. She could turn things around and turn around, she was sure he was the only one to have seen Marina alive in last.
Evidently she couldn't speak of her doubts to anyone. It would only blame her and she was too cowardly to risk self-incrimination. It was simply impossible for her.
"That's the conclusion we arrived at. And the most important thing is that it's the version of the facts that the judge will remember. You know, you would save us a lot of work if you told us where the murder weapon is. The trophy."
Suddenly Polo got up from his chair, leaving Alba to do the same, just to see Carla rise in her turn at the sight of the arrival of the chief inspector of the investigation. She could suddenly feel her heart pounding against her ribcage as she followed the inspector's path to Nano.
"It's him." Announced the inspector to the two men accompanying her leaving Alba to jump between the chairs by shaking her head with the intention of intervening. Unfortunately Niccolò hastened to restrain her by whispering to her to remain calm."We arrest you for the murder of Marina Nunier."
"What are you saying ?"
"Hold him!"
Alba's eyes widened before forcing Nicco to catch her with a stinging look over her shoulder." It's not him ! I know it ! I saw it !"
"What are you telling ?" Barked Nano fighting against the police officers in disarray and rage."I asked you to repeat!"
"Take him away! "
"What did you just say ?! Look me in the eyes and repeat that! "
"We have two witnesses. Alba and your little brother. A mobile. In the message she didn't want to go with you anymore. That's why you killed her."
Alba immediately brought her hands to her lips as she watched Nano struggle to join his brother in the hope of pleading his innocence with him."Samuel! Samuel you know I would never hurt her, huh?"
"Take him away! "
"I could never have raised a hand on her! I loved her !"
"They killed her because of the watch. The usb key contained plenty of evidence of her father's shenanigans and a million was asked for it. But these people don't stop at nothing. They even assaulted my family."
Alba stepped forward as Niccolò finally released her, visibly shocked by Nano's arrest. She walked to the end of the seat range she had been sitting on before she followed Nano's back away.
"Marina was watching the watch so they killed her for having it. It's one of those little kid of rich. The Marquise for example she had too much to lose."
"We didn't find a watch. Neither the slightest trace of blackmail."
"I threw away the phone with which I called the father."
"You would have proof of what you say?"
"Yeah obviously. I need proof to accuse these bastards."
"Do you have something to say for your defense?"
"Yeah. Go fuck yourself dirty cop !"
Alba took a deep breath as she dragged her suitcase down the tiled entrance to the villa before finally pushing the front door to make her way under the hot Spanish sun.
She paused as she stopped in front of the lustrous black Mercedes supposed to drive her to the airport before taking a last look at her parents' villa. She took a deep breath as she swallowed before turning her attention back to the driver as he walked around the hood to stand beside her.
"Can I take your luggage, Miss. Montonìa?"
"Thanks Andrée." She agreed, letting him grab her luggage before reaching for the back door.
There she found Niccolò already on the back seat with his phone in his hands. He immediately lifted his eyes from his screen to look at her, leaving Alba on his side.
She look as Andree climbed behind the wheel before glancing at Niccolò at his request."You're okay ?"
"Yeah." she replied coldly as she turned her eyes toward the front of the car before lowering her sunglasses over her eyes as she resumed with determination.
"You know what they said : if you're going through hell, keep going."
