Authors pov

"Oh my god... Where is the necklace..."

She said in panic and started looking for it.

Florina checked her bed, her bathroom and her whole apartment but she didn't find it. She was on the verge of crying now. She has risked her life for that, she can't loose it now.

"Where is it?..."

She ran her fingers through her hair.

Suddenly she remembered last night, sebestian and Vincenzo.

She checked her phone and went through her selfies of last night and she saw that necklace. It was there last night.

"Oh my god did I drop it there..."

Her mouth hung open.

Florina grabbed her purse and ran out of her room booking a cab to the club. She reached to the club and demanded to meet the manager.

"Please sir... That necklace is very important to me. My life depends on that."

She pleaded the manager.

"I have already told you miss... We didn't found anything like that. But if you want we can check the cctv footage..."

He suggested.

"Yes please..."

She said with a little hope.

They checked the footage of last night. When she was standing outside the washroom the necklace was around her neck. The manager didn't agree to show her the footage of the room where she met sebestian and she understood why. Showing mafia's personal meetings footage to outsider would probably cost him his life.

Florina saw herself running outside the room but her neck wasn't visible in it. She requested him to show the footage of the parking lot and she was quite surprised when she couldn't see Vincenzo anywhere. All the footage was already erased where she bumped into him. Finally the manager paused the video where her neck was visible.

Florina almost cried when she saw her neck empty.

"This is it miss... We would have find it if you had dropped it somewhere here but we can't do anything if someone has stolen it... I am sorry..."

The manager apologized.

"I understand... Thank you for your help..."

She said trying her hard to not cry in front of him.

"It's my duty... Have a good day..."

He said and walked outside defeated.

'Either sebestian has it or vincenzo... I was sitting on sebestian's lap and he was touching my neck, maybe I dropped it there and he picked it up... Or else it's Vincenzo, the way I bumped into him was quite nasty, I could have dropped it there and he picked it up... God! What am I supposed to do now... I am 80% sure it's Vincenzo, he has my necklace but how do I get it back.'

Florina called a cab and he was the same driver from last night. She asked him if he know where Vincenzo lives and to take her his place. His eyes widened but he didn't say anything.

He agreed and she got in.

"How do you know his address?..."

She asked curiously.

"I am driving this car for last 25 years. I know every inch of this city..."

He chuckled and she nodded impressed.

He dropped her a few minutes away from the villa and told her to walk from there and be safe. She paid him and walked towards vincenzo's house.

Florina's mouth dropped when she saw his house. The palace like mansion was standing proudly behind the big metal gates which had VR carved on it with big golden initials. The area in which his mansion was built could fit half of her town, it was that big.
