If only he loved me too novel Chapter 10

Pain, regret, guilt and many more emotions were overwhelming within me as I stood before a huge box where laid Dimitri or his completely crisp burnt body. my hands shook as I placed it on top of the box, tears fell down my cheek continuously and I wept in helplessness.

"I'm so sorry," I whispered in a thick voice, doctors made me wear a mask and a special suit because the cause of death was the fire. I leaned my head on the box and cried " I'm so very sorry, Dimitri, I wish it was me and not you" I wept for a long time before I was forced outside the morgue by Oliver.

"Did you find it?" I asked desperately with tear stain on my face, Oliver looked stressed and avoided the eye contact. "The guy I told you about, Peter something. he was at the party and the accident site" he sighed and rubbed his face exhausted 

"I've gone through every footage of the party and there is no one like you described, Erika" he explained painfully, I knew he didn't believe me because they think and the symptoms show that I'm going through PTSD but that's not the whole story. 

"Oliver you need to believe me, I saw him, he was there at that night, he hit my head with a gun" I almost yelled out "I know what I saw," I said leaning on my wheelchair, tears of desperation escaped my eyes and I'm too tired to control it "I know" I whispered closing my eyes.

Oliver kneeled and held my hands in his "I believe you, Erika, I do but we don't have enough or any proof that the guy was at the party or was at the site" he tried convincing me, I nodded in understanding 

"I know," I said trying to make my words seem convincing 

"Good," he said standing up and looked at his watch "I have got to go, but I'll be back in an hour and besides your mom and Vennassa will be here soon," he said and wheeled me to my room, he carefully picked me up and laid me down then connected the IV drip. "I'll be back, " he kissed my forehead and looked at me sympathetically "Do you want something?" he asked me and I smiled

"I need my phone and my Laptop with wifi connection," I said, he nodded and left

Just because he didn't find anything does not mean it's not there, I'm gonna find him and when I do, he's gonna pay.

It's been hours and I'm still going through every bit of the footage and still not able to find anything, but I know it's there somewhere I just got to look for it. I've also contacted one of my friends from college and he agreed to help, he hacked into the security cameras from all around the accident site, and I have hacked into every news, social media, and paparazzi's pages to try to just get a little glimpse of  Peter, I'm not sure if it's his real name but whatever. 

I tried looking for the bartender that served us that night as well but he's a ghost now, no signs of him ever being there. it all seems to be like a setup and nothing is in sync everything happens to be in a perfect alignment like someone from the inside is involved but who can it be? 

"Did you find anything?" I asked Lucas, my friend, from college on the phone, as I kept scrolling on my computer

"Yeah, I've mailed it to you, you need to see this," he said and disconnected

I opened my main and clicked on the recent one from him, I frowned staring at the photo, it was of me and Dimitri at the party, my heart clenched painfully at his perfect smile but I have to get a hold on myself, contrarily in the background stood Peter staring at us from behind and there stood Margret beside him, she wasn't looking at front but I knew it is her because I never liked her. I swear if she has anything to do with Dimitri's- Dimitri's Death, I will personally rip her to shreds. 

 I picked my phone and called Lucas "We need to take care of this quietly, no one can know," I said 

"Are you sure you want to do this?" he asked hesitantly
