Chereads / A Fortunate Meeting / Chapter 21 - Suspicions

Chapter 21 - Suspicions

"OH MY GOD!! Who killed them?" Lilly looked terrified.

Noticing her shaking figure Jordan quickly sprinted towards her and hugged her tight "Are you ok? Are you hurt somewhere?" He sounded concerned while checking up on her if she had any injuries, but luckily she was all fine.

He swiftly dragged her out of that place in a hurry to avoid running into somebody near such a horrible crime scene which would definitely lead to some misunderstandings.

They stopped at the backside of the same luxurious mansion where party was held, trying to catch their breaths. "I told you its not safe! Why don't you listen to me?!" Jordan raised his voice.

"Its ok! I'm fine" she attempted to calm him down.

"You don't know Lilly! What if something bad had happened to you?" He grabbed her shoulders while drawing her close, his face displayed nothing but dismay .

"I told you I'm fine" she whisphered before taking his hands off her shoulders while assuring him.

"You wanna go home?"

"Noo! We shouldn't! It would make everybody suspicious and more over this business party is very important to you. You got so many clients here, so we must stay here until the end" she uttered trying to explain him the consequences.

This was offcourse important to him but he didn't mind as long as its for her safety. "Are you sure Babe?" He whisphered.

She cleared her throat a bit "Yeah, come lets go back" she held his hand and dragged him back into the party hall.

"Woah! Look at this gorgeous lady right here" This statement made Lilly and Jordan to instantly stop in their tracks. Their attention followed the voice to see none other than Jay walking towards their direction with Blaze trailing behind him. Jordan huffed in annoyance, already knowing where this would end up and Jay's presence made sense because he was the CEO of the Evan's co-orperations.

"Wow Lilly! You look so beautiful darling" Jay complemented after eyeing her with a disturbing smile dancing on his lips.

As soon as the word 'Darling' left his mouth Jordan's blood boiled like a molten magma. His knuckles turned white but Lilly held his fists which were almost taking off to punch her ex. She tried to calm him down as she wasn't in the mood to see any bruised faces.

"Don't you even dare 'darling' me Mr.Jay Evans! *huffs*" she rolled her eyes and was about to leave while dragging Jordan with her but the next sentence that left Jay's mouth halted her.

"Why? You always liked it when I called you darling!" Jay was sure here to piss them off.

Thats it! Jordan couldn't take it anymore "I swear to god Jay, Just piss off! I'm trying to be as professional as I can since its not the right time for your shit like this!" Jordan growled at him while keeping his face straight since there were many figures around.

"Chill man! Looks like you got some bad temper" Jay sarcastically chuckled, playing it cool with a smug smile.

"I don't have a bad temper, I just have a quick reaction to bullshit!" Jordan spitted his words out anger.

"Nah dude! The real bullshit is you staying quite when other playboys try to hit on Lilly, I swear I wouldn't do that if I were you!" Jay raised his hands as if he was surrendering when he uttered his last lines with a little disgust in his voice.

Jordan smirked at his words. "I always stay quite while I do not so peaceful things. I already ended those bastard's chapters and I don't mind to draw the same fate to a sick psycho like you" He warned.

Lilly was a little troubled with Jordan's words but she shrugged it off since it wasn't the right place to talk about those things.

"Woah woah! You should be nice to a nice person like me Jordan" Jay exclaimed pretending to be innocent.

Jordan didn't get the chance because this time Lilly spoke with a sarcastic tone "Huh? You? A Nice person? Is that even a joke? I know! You are the one that set me up that day, inorder to destroy my relationship with Jordan ... You are a fricking two headed snake Jay. Stop spitting venom into everybody's happy lives!"

It would be a lie if Jay wasn't affected by her words. Back then when his parents were against him just like they are until now, Lilly was the one who stayed by his side and comforted him the whole time. The memories of the past with her turned his gaze into a soft one but his present was different because now Lilly was also going against him. The harsh reality stirred up his emotions and made him feel something which he couldn't express.He always thought about how people went against him but he didn't put the effort to think about how his behavior and actions made others to stay away from him because his ego always came in the way. His flooded emotions started turning into pure vexation.

"YES! Offcourse I set you up. I HAD TO!Because I want you back and I will get you back!" Jay declared his true intentions not caring about how outraged Jordan was.

Lilly chuckled "Oh! You want to date me again? But your face looks like you are just looking for a girltoy!" she smirked and turned towards Jordan "Lets go baby! " she walked away with Jordan, not giving a fudge about her awful ex-boyfriend.

Jay's heart throbbed hearing her calling someother man with names. His intentions was to provoke them instead but he was the one who got hurt at the end. Seeing Jay in such an awful situation Blaze who didn't dare to speak a word all long finally spoke "Just forget her! Move on and concentrate on our business Jay"

Jay sighed and shook his head "Its so hard to forget HER, when she has given me alot to remember"

Just like every weekend the girls gathered at Honey Jersey's house.

"Did you find any clues about Tony's death?" Lilly questioned officer Kunny Jones who was now busy in her thoughts while Honey was doing her chores.

"We found his wallet in sewage canal. It contained his cards and some money, they were all untouched so that means the murder wasn't about money. It must be something else" Kunny informed about all the things that had been happening about his death.

Lilly frowned at her statement. *If they want something else other than money, then what was that Tony had and the murderer needed?* She thought.

"Did you check his house?" Lilly asked out of curiosity.

"Yeah offcourse but still the same, it was untouched" kunny declared.

"Does that mean the crime took place before he reached home?"

"It would have been easy to declare that if his house was in a different area from his work company but its not the case here. Since both are in the same area we can't decide that without the proof" Kunny stated

Honey was keeping up with their conversation but she scowled at the last words.

"Speaking about the proof, why is Dean's co-operation hesitating to provide the CCTV footage of Tony's presence in the company?" Honey asked with confusion while she walked and sat beside Lilly.

"What? They hesitated? I didn't know about that !" Lilly was surprised.

"Yes, we sent a notice about that from our department for three times but to this day there is no reply" Kunny said .

"And any progess in investigation about the identity of the guys that were dead at the business party?" Honey asked reffering to the guys that Lilly and Jordan had found at the washroom. Lilly had already told them about everything that happened at the party.

"No information yet" Kunny randomly said.

Honey twitched her brows while carefully thinking "Something about the Dean's company is fishy!" she said with a not so sure tone.

"Sure it is!" Lilly uttered before biting her inner cheeks.

Kunny was confused "What exactly do you mean?"

Lilly sighed and stood up. She slowly walked towards the window and intensely stared at Jordan's house beside, on the other hand her friends were puzzled at Lilly's actions but they eagerly waited for her to speak.

"I wonder why the men that tried to attack me in the washroom carried weapons that are actually manufactured under the DEAN'S LABEL!"
