Chapter 125
Rachel
After breakfast that was delicious by the way. Massimo went to his office to call Damon to invite them to our barbeque on the 24th and I went to my office to look for my files. I started to make an excel spreadsheet of all the families and their businesses. It would make it easier to connect the dots, because that one company on the Ricci’s list was still bothering me. Massimo stood at the door of my office, just looking at me. “What’s wrong Massimo?” “You look absolutely stunning behind your desk sweetheart.” “Well thank you, I love it.” “What are you busy with?” “I made a spreadsheet with all the families contacts and companies they dealing with to make it easier to cross reference.” “That’s a very good plan Bella, I’ll just have to ask Wolf to install a kill switch on your computer for if something happens. That’s why I had the hard copies easier to get rid of.” “But for what we’re doing now we definitely need a spreadsheet.” “Sorry Massimo I didn’t think about that, it’s just easier finding the problem this way.” “I totally agree Bella, don’t worry. I’ll get Wolf to come and install it Monday while your out.” “Okay Massimo, what will he do.” “He’ll install a kill switch in your computer. It’s on all our computers, if something happens he presses one button and it cleans all the computers on his network. That’s why it’s called a kill switch.” “Wow Massimo, I didn’t know something like that is possible.” “Anything is possible Bella. Now what do you need from me?” A list of all your clients would be useful especially the shell companies.” “I’ll send it to you know and all the new information from the families.” “Thank you Massimo.” He walked out of my office and within seconds I had all the information. I started updating the other families data, then made a folder for Massimo and that’s when it hit me a company called Epi trading as Cure I saw that at the Ricci’s as well. I made a quick search in my excel spreadsheets and there in front of me was the answer the same company doing business with everyone. I got up and went to Massimo’s office. I found him looking at the wall, where my office is. “What you doing Massimo.” “Thinking what we can do to open this wall, then we have one big office but not in each others space. It would make it easier if where working together from home. At the moment it feels like I’m not with you and I don’t like it.” “We could move my computer to your boardroom for today, I’m also missing you.” He pulled me to him and hold me tight. “Yes we can do that. But why are you looking for me did you find the problem?” “Yes I think I did, it’s a company called Epi trading as cure. Very forgettable name, it's not something that sticks in your head. And if I’m right I need Damon to check his records as well and I need all the I formation you have on Anton.” “What are you thinking Bella?” “I need to get everything before I tell you Massimo I want to be sure. And who can help me to find out who a shell company belongs to?” “We can contact Wolf he’ll be able to find out.” “Can I get his number or will you phone him?” “I’ll give you Wolf’s number and I’ll phone Damon.” “Thank you Massimo.” He gave me Wolf’s number and I went to my office. Wolf’s phone rang maybe one’s before he answered. “Hi Rachel.” “Hi Wolf, I’m impress that you have my number.” “Boss gave it to all of us. How can I help you?” “Massimo said you will be able to find out who a shell company belongs to?” “Yes I can. What is the companies name?” It’s Epi trading as cure.” “I’ll get back to you in the next hour.” “Wait Wolf there’s something else, I want all the information on Anton, the guy with the diamonds please. I don’t know his surname.” “No problem Rachel I have his information, I’m sending it to you know.” “Thank you Wolf.” “Talk later Rachel.” I immediately received the e-mail from Wolf with all Anton’s information. His surname was Geldenhuys, it sounded very South African. I looked through all his information and yes he was from South Africa born in Johannesburg. That’s probable why he wanted me away from the table he could hear my accent and he had something to hide. I should dig deeper into him, but not now, now I only want to know if he was in business with the same shell company. I couldn’t believe my eyes, there in black and white was Epi trading as Cure. Now I knew it was them behind everything. Massimo came into my office “You wouldn’t believe it Bella?” “Damon has dealings with them to.” “Yes, now tell me what you found. And what you’re thinking.” “Well if we could find out who this company belongs to we have the people that is threatening all the other families and why Anton said he’ll kill me or they will. He has dealings with them to. It’s in his background I got from Wolf.” “Is Wolf looking into this?” “Yes as we speak. How the fuck did we miss this?” Massimo was walking up and down in front of my desk. “It’s not a name that is rememberable Massimo and you for one didn’t have much to do with them I think you had one dealing with them a few years back, then you stopped. Obviously it doesn’t say in your records why you stopped.” “I’ll call Luca to come to your office, maybe he could remember.” He phoned Luca and when he put the phone down, it ring again. “Rachel hello.” “Rachel it’s Wolf.” “That was fast.” “It was actually easy. Do you have a pen I want you to right the name down.” “I’m in front of my computer I’ll type it.” “Okay, where is the boss?” “Standing next to me.” Massimo took the phone and put it on speaker. “I’m right here Wolf, Luca also walked into the office.” “Okay boss, Rachel type in CIRIC, I did, now make a new name with that tell me when you get it.” Massimo was getting irritated.
“Stop the riddles Wolf, who does it belong to?” I almost screamed “The Ricci’s”
