She made a desperate 999 call to police after allegedly being barred entry and seeing the brunette speed off in one of Mr Bush's luxury cars before discovering she didn't have keys to get back in.
Last night it emerged his alleged killer may have been laying in wait for the pair for several days after letting herself into the villa with a set of keys she had kept.
A source close to the investigation said: 'It is being treated as murder and police are hunting the dead man's ex on suspicion of committing this crime.
'They are probing the possibility she may have let herself into the property while the occupant was away and waited for several days for him to return.'
Mr Bush is believed to have run several businesses in Bristol including a pawn shop, a jewellers, a tanning and waxing shop, a limo hire firm and a wholesalers.

'From what I've heard the police are treating it as a terrible act of jealousy.
'I can't begin to imagine what the girlfriend must be feeling right now. She could so easily have been killed as well.'
Another added: 'Apart from the noise he made with his cars early in the morning, he was a good neighbour who never gave us any cause for concern.
'He kept himself to himself and wasn't around all the time. I've heard he had business interests all over the world

'The only woman I ever saw at the property was a pretty young blonde woman who was British like him.
'She was his current girlfriend. She must have been in her mid to late twenties.
'He kept a boat in the grounds of the house and he always drove nice cars. He had a Hummer which he had resprayed and I've also seen him in a Porsche and a Ferrari.'
Undertakers arrived at the property mid-morning on Saturday to take Mr Bush's body to Malaga for a post-mortem examination.
A sister of the dead man is understood to have travelled to Spain from Britain.
Police forensics experts are expected to start examining his house tomorrow.
The owners of the property arrived on Saturday evening to let police into the grounds so they could seal it off to unwanted visitors.
The terracotta-coloured villa - called Mar Antika - lies in a quiet residential street in an area called Cancelada between San Pedro and Estepona.
It is a two-minute walk from the beach in one direction and a dual-carriageway known as the New Golden Mile in another.
One local said: 'There was a fire at the house a couple of years ago before the current tenants moved in.
'Someone set fire to a caravan and BMW parked inside the grounds.
