Caroline's Death

Bella was so frustrated to see the state of this place.

Bad thoughts about Alice swarmed her mind.

The woman's cries broke.

"Alice, are you all right!" Bella said as she wiped her tears.

"Where are you, Alice!?" Bella shouted as she looked around the room.

"Bella, be patient! You should be able to calm yourself down!" Felix said as he hugged the woman.

Meanwhile, Carlos checked the entire room. And lastly, he checked the bottom of the building, standing on top of the guardrail. And from that place, Carlos saw someone lying on the ground floor.

From his clothes and stature, Carlos knew the woman very well.

"Caroline!?" he shouted.

The scream made Bella and Felix flinch, then they immediately went to Carlos.

"Oh my! That's Caroline?!" shouted Bella.

"Let's hurry and help her!" Felix exclaimed.

The three of them ran and descended the fourth floor to the first floor. They're coming to you, Caroline.

Her body was on the bottom floor, on a different side from the entrance, so they didn't find it when they climbed the stairs.

***

They reached the bottom in fear.

Bella's body was shaking, Felix immediately calmed her down, while Carlos went straight to Caroline.

"Carol! Carol! Wake up, Carol!" Call Carlos to Caroline.

Of course, there was no response from the woman, Carlone was dead. The state of her body is also really very scary. Her entire leg was covered with wounds, and her head was also smashed. Caroline's eyes opened with her mouth hanging open.

Carlos couldn't contain his tears and regret. If only he didn't chase Alice anymore, then Caroline wouldn't be so reckless, and Alice wouldn't kill Caroline.

"Carol! I'm sorry, Carol!" Carlos cried as he hugged Caroline's body. While Bella was still crying with her limp body shaking.

"This is what I was afraid of, and the end happened too...." Bella hugged Felix tighter.

"My young sister became a murderer, Felix! How is it?"

"Bella, you have to think, after all, she is still your sister. And you still have to help her get back to normal!" Felix said.

"Yeah, but how do you do it, Felix? I'm afraid she'll harm me and my children. Even for Alice's whereabouts right now I don't know either?" said Bella.

"Well, let's find Alice!" take Felix.

"Then what about Carlos, and Caroline?" Bella asked, pointing at the two of them.

"I'm going to call the police!" Felix replied.

"What?!" Bella looked shocked to hear that. "If that's the way it is, it's the same as throwing my sister in jail, Felix!"

"Then what should we do next, Bella? Don't you feel sorry for Caroline? Are you going to hide her body?" Felix asked, "Caroline's parents should know when their daughter dies! They have to treat her body properly, right?" said Felix.

Bella could only be silent, what Felix said was true.

Bella was resigned when Felix pulled her hand and asked her to go find Alice.

Meanwhile, Carlos was still at the scene waiting for the local police to arrive.

"Where should we look for Alice?" Felix muttered as he focused on the steering wheel.

"Felix, we better go to my house now! I'm sure Alice is home!" said Bella.

"All right, Bella!"

Felix also obeyed Bella's suggestion.

And when they got to Bella's house, they immediately checked the condition of the house.

Incidentally, the house was very quiet, Diana and Daniel had not come home from school.

"Alice, where are you, Alice?" Bella called, she walked towards Alice's room.

But in the room, some of Alice's things weren't there, and the suitcase that Bella had seen this morning was also gone. Which meant that Alice was gone.

"Alice isn't here, Felix! How is it?" Bella asked Felix.

"God, where is she?" Felix also looked frustrated. He rubbed his face in a frenzy.

"Bella, do you still remember Alice's last words, regarding her wish to visit somewhere?" Felix asked.

"London!" Bella answered.

"You mean? Alice went to London?" Felix asked for sure.

"Yeah, that's right! Alice was talking about that town earlier!" Bella answered.

"Then shall we go there?" take Felix.

"If I go there, then what about my children?" Bella's asked.

"Ah, yes, yes!" Felix grabbed a part of her hair, "ah, how is this?"

Right at that moment Diana and Daniel arrived.

"Mommy, Uncle Felix. What are you doing?" asked Daniel.

"We're—" Bella cut Felix off.

"Diana, Daniel, come on inside! I'm going to order a quick lunch for you!" said Bella.

"All right, Mom!" said the two children in unison.

Bella and Felix again negotiate, to find the best way.

Because to go to London takes a lot of time. They had to make sure Alice was there. And if Alice wasn't there, it would have been a wasted trip.

And when Felix and Bella were conferring, suddenly a middle-aged woman approached them.

"Hello, good afternoon," said the woman.

"Good afternoon!" said Felix and Bella in unison.

"Can I help you?" Bella asked the woman.

"I'm a new resident in the house next door. And I want to deliver this food, as an introduction," said the woman.

"Thank you," Bella replied, looking down kindly and reaching for the food.

The woman who had just arrived looked around the room at Bella's house with a strange look.

"Sorry, anything else?" Felix asked the woman. Felix was curious about the woman. Moreover, the woman's appearance also looks different from ordinary people's.

She wore a black dress, with large round earrings, and her hands were filled with gold and silver bracelets. There are also bracelets made of special threads.

Her curly hair is flowing freely with a little embellishment of a scarf that is used as a headband.

"I feel a dark vibe here," said the woman suddenly.

"What do you mean?" Felix asked.

"Was there a commotion here recently?" The woman turned around to ask.

Felix and Bella looked at each other.

"We don't understand your question, Ma'am?" Felix said.

"Call me 'Madam Anyelir' I am a psychic. If you need my help, please contact me." The woman gave her business card to Bella.

"Okay, I'll go home first, yes," she said, bowing her head for a moment with a friendly smile.

Bella was about to stop the woman.

"Ma'am--"

"Shhh... just let it go!" Felix said.

"But she-"

"Bella, you still believe in prophecies?" Bella fell silent for a moment.
