Preparation for D-Day (3)
"Nami-sama!" Sebastian shook her awake. She groggily opened her eyes and yawned, wiping her apparent wet eyes.
"What's the big deal...? I was sleeping."
"You were thrashing and crying about. I had to wake you. I apologize for that. Would you like some water?"
She nodded. As she drank the water, she recalled the day when she confronted her aunt about the possible foul play in regards to uncle's death. Even though she did not clearly say that she killed uncle, it was obvious that she had a hand in it. Because of that, she began to fear for her life and for her foster family's lives.
"Sebastian."
"Yes, Nami-sama."
"Do you think there is a possibility that aunt had a hand in my parents' deaths?"
Now that she thought about it, her aunt did act strange and antsy around her for some time. It was only when she graduated from high school that her aunt started to act confident and became even more annoying. Her uncle's death left no traces and even if there was one, it wasn't enough to persecute her aunt's family.
A criminal who tastes the pleasure of committing a crime and succeeds from their actions will most likely do it again for their own convenience and desires. Knowing aunt's personality, that was a huge possibility. Even though she couldn't get me killed, she knew that just eradicating my parents was good enough. Unfortunately for her, I wasn't going to give her a chance to manipulate me this time.
[Not anymore.]
"There is a possibility. Would you like me to look into it?" Sebastian might be a domestic worker for my family, but he was also an expert in information gathering and was in charge of a huge intelligence network. There was nothing that could hide from him if he so chose.
"We only have 6 more days. Get it done before aunt arrives. Also find any dirt on my aunt and her husband. If you can, tell me if there are any conflicts between aunt and her son as well. Bring me all of the evidence and if you find any solid evidence that shows that my aunt had a hand in killing my parents... Bring me the strongest prosecutor and police detective you know of on the day my aunt arrives. Money won't be a problem."
"Understood." Sebastian took out his cellphone and walked out of the room.
"Maria."
"Yes, Nami-sama."
"This will be a long-term mission. However, if you can get it done quickly, that would be for the best."
"What are your orders?"
Nami handed Maria a small note. "Here are a list of names of our major stakeholders and shareholders. I want you to figure out their weaknesses and any important background information that they are trying to hide from us. Do the same for my grandparents." Her eyes narrowed. "My grandmother and grandfather are awfully suspicious for not helping me during this time of need. Something is fishy and I need to find out what it is. Is that clear?"
"Yes. I shall get it done immediately." Maria bowed before walking out with the note in her pocket.
Keep the reviews coming! :D
