"Marina was the sweetest girl I have ever met. She had light inside of her and she always shared it with everyone else." The brunette stared at a random spot to where the light landed, a small smile forming onto her face as she thought of the only fond memory she shared of Marina.
Once upon a time they had been close; for the past years they had done nothing but argue. Now that Marina was dead, Eleanora couldn't help but to feel guilty. Perhaps if someone had been there for her - a friend she could confide in - she wouldn't have ended up like she did.
"Why did the two of you argue?" The detective questioned, pulling Eleanora away from her train of thought. She looked up at the inspector who observed her closely; from next to her the advocate her parents had hired - one that was also close to her family - shook his head to stop Eleanora from answering the question.
"It isn't a secret that we didn't get along." The brunette remarked, more to her lawyer that to the inspector. "Marina never cared about anyone but herself. She always put her friends under the fire, only so that she could save herself. She acted if she was superior to everyone else, as if she didn't want the money or the luxury she had."
Letting out a small chuckle, she continued: "The funny thing is she never did anything against it. That's why she was a hypocrite, and that's why we never got along. I might be a bitch, but I would never do what she did to my friends, or to my family."
Letting out a small breath, Eleanora didn't even notice how angry she had gotten. She understood completely that what she had said could easily be describe as hatred towards Marina, yet she couldn't stop herself. Her every word was laced with venom, something that the detective easily picked up.
"Did Marina knew you and Samuel were seeing each other?"
Eleanora answered the inspector with a glare; her friends had shared their annoyance towards the detective with her. She now understood clearly why they thought of her as a nuisance in their lives.
"Marina was busy with other things to notice me. Or Samuel for the matter." She replied rather quickly. Yet another thing the detective wrote into her little notebook.
"Did she know about you and Nano?" She continued, not taking her eyes off the book. Only when Eleanora didn't answer she raised her head, raising her eyebrow as to encourage Eleanora to answer.
Inside, the girl fumed with anger; from outside, it looked as if Eleanora was simply thinking about her answer. There were not a lot of people who knew of her hookup with Nano - the two guilty parties of course; Eleanora vaguely remembered she had told about her rendezvous to Carla. Either she told about it to someone, or she told about it to the detective. Another option was that Nano himself couldn't keep his mouth shut and had to go brag about sleeping with a millionaire.
"Eleanora?" The detective forced her to stop her theorizing and to give her an answer, rather sooner than later.
"I don't know. There wasn't anything between me and Nano. We slept together before Samuel even came to Las Encinas." She replied truthfully, yet it seemed as if the detective didn't believe her. The last thing Eleanora wanted was to prove her innocence, since innocent she indeed was. The girl desperately wished to be at home in a bath, sipping on a good red wine without any care in the world. Yet deep down she knew things would never go back to normal, and the only thing now she needed to do was to be there for Guzmán.
For it was him who needed Eleanora the most - no one else mattered right now.
"Are there any more questions, or can I go now?" She demanded to know, a little too aggressively than she intended. The detective nodded in reply; Eleanora didn't waste no time in the room, and quickly left, her lawyer close behind her. The girl had no positive feelings towards the detective, but the brunette knew someone would be arrested any time now.
