The next day I went to the college at the given time and went straight to the vice chancellor's office. Luckily, it was opened which saved me stress of having to break the lock or something.

I flipped the lights on to find my psychology lecturer, Mr Felix twirling on the swivel chair. He smiled at me causing the side of his lips to fold into light wrinkle.

It's just five years after i graduated how did he age so quickly? I wondered. "Mr Felix" I acknowledged and he stood up from the chair. "It's good to see you again my very wonderful student. You know why I always said you were my best student?" I gave no reply and let the silence speak for me.

"It's because you were the only one I saw using my course for its advantage, now look at you. Do you know how much the mafia organization under your power and allies of your father earn cause of your good works? Whenever I hear of it I always feel proud and happy to have been your psychology lecturer".

"Your compliment is well appreciated Mr Felix now over to why we're here" he cleared his throat and bobbed his head in agreement.

"Here" he gave me a gold key and paper that had a picture of a box sketched on it. "You'll find that in one of the rooms of the Delmontes"

"Repeat that" I needed to be sure my ears heard correctly or may be he meant another Delmonte. "You heard me perfectly Maja, Riccardo Delmonte's mansion is where you'd find a major part of what you're looking for. Good luck" he stood up and left the office

"Key, box, Riccardo..... fuck! I puffed out and ran my fingers in my curls. It seems like the end is only becoming more deadly as I get a hold of each clue.

"Get the jet ready, we're leaving at midnight" I instructed the pilot and left the school. I had about two hours before i left so I decided to pay my uncle a visit.

I rang the doorbell for the fifth time again before someone came to get it. The lady stared at me with confusion which mirrored my expression too.

Her brown orbs appeared to be very familiar but I can attest that I have never seen her before. She also did look familiar but finding the right image in my head to fit her face was difficult.

"And who are you?" Her thick Hispanic enunciation drifted into the silence of the night. "Martina's sister" her brows flattened in realization and she gave me a room to go in but before i did I scanned her properly and during my analysis my eyes caught sight of a petal tattoo on her neck with the number 8 written in it. The flashy green Ruby necklace on her neck also caught my attention and for me not to appear like a creep I complimented the art on her neck and the necklace.

She thanked me and without further reply I went in. "Maja?" Aunt Samantha was the first to recognize my presence but I wasn't in for her fake emotions so I asked for Martina, the major reason I came here

"She's up in her room" Elvis replied and I began making my way up the stairs following the direction I was given. I reached her door and without knocking i went in.
