Chapter 154
Rachel
I almost got a heart attack when I got out of the elevator and saw Massimo with all the blood on him. When I was sure Massimo was okay, I asked the doctor if there was anything I could do for him, he asked me for hot water, I rushed to the kitchen and got him some hot water. Then Massimo, Luca, Marco and me went to the lounge. That’s where the shit hit the van. Massimo informed me the bullet was meant for him and that he killed Ricci Jnr and send him to Ricci Snr, that was why we had such a nice 2 weeks, he also told me Ricci Snr phoned him and threatened him, but Massimo didn’t find it important enough to tell me. He did tell me there where things we need to talk about in the New Year and I accepted it, but really a death threat, I would say that is important information. The helicopter ride back to the Hamptons was a very occurred, Enzo was lying on the floor between us, I was holding my dress in a death grip and Luca was holding Massimo’s suit I guessed. I didn’t look at Massimo once, I knew he tried to get my attention more than once, but I was way to angry at him. I know the bullet could have hit him and I’m very grateful for Enzo in taking the bullet for Massimo, but I was still angry. This was something he needed to tell me. For fucks sake we’re getting married in 4 days and he kept such a big secret from me, someone wants to kill him. I could feel I was starting to cry. Massimo gave me his handkerchief, I just took it without looking at him, I wiped my tears and wanted to react like a child and give it back to him but I decided I’ll try and behave like a grown up, no matter how big of a tantrum I wanted to throw right now. These pregnancy hormones are getting to me. The tortures 45 minutes where over and we landed at the house in the Hamptons. Massimo got out and hold out his hand to help me out. I wanted to refuse but with my dress in my arms I couldn’t refuse. I took his hand got out of the helicopter and started to walk towards the house. Francesca saw me approaching, wanting to take the dress from me. “I’m good Francesca, Enzo might need your help more he was shot, just ask Massimo what you should get ready.” I said nonchalant I could see Francesca was a bit in shock then she ran to Massimo. I didn’t look back I walked straight to one of the guest rooms and hanged my dress. Then I went to our room and got dress in relaxing cloths. I went to the kitchen and made myself some hot chocolate, it felt like my bones where getting cold after everything that happened. Massimo walked into the kitchen, “You want some?” I asked him without looking at him “No thank you. Aren’t you going to speak to me?” “Not yet” “Then when?” “When I feel like it Massimo, when I feel like you will listen to me, when I think you’ll understand what I’m saying and understand why I’m so angry.” “I’m listening Rachel.” “Well, I’m not talking yet.” “Fine” Massimo said irritated at me. Then he walked out of the kitchen. I took my hot chocolate and sat in front of the TV. For some reason the TV was on a news channel, I shouldn’t have put the TV on. The whole incident was on TV, how Enzo jumped in front of Massimo. The news said “Shooting on 5th Ave in broad daylight, victim is an unknown male, shooters still on the loose.” “Massimo!” I screamed. He came running into the lounge, “What’s wrong I thought you not speaking to me” “Look” I pointed at the TV. The scene repeated how Enzo jumped in front of Massimo and the high light was running on the screen again. “Fuck” Massimo said. Then I just burst out in tears, I was sobbing “Hey sweetheart” He approach me slowly “You could have died Massimo. You could have died.” I repeated over and over sobbing. “Rachel, I didn’t” “But you could have Massimo and you didn’t think it was imported enough to tell me about the threat. If it wasn’t for Enzo, they would have shot you.” “I know sweetheart, I’m so sorry I didn’t tell you; I see now it wasn’t the right decision.” “You only saying it because I’m crying Massimo.” “No sweetheart I’m not. I should have told you.” “You right you should have, if Enzo wasn’t with us.” “Sweetheart he was, let’s not think like that.” He picked me up and put me in his lap holding me and rocking me like I was a baby, I felt like one. The footage was scary as hell.
Massimo
I’ve never seen Bella so angry at me, the way she just walked away from us when we got out of the chopper. I found her in the kitchen but she still refused to talk to me. I walked to my office preparing to phone Damon and Frank when I heard Bella screaming from the lounge. When I ran into the lounge, I asked a bit sarcastically “What’s wrong I thought you not speaking to me” “Look” she pointed at the TV, there on the TV was the scene where Enzo jumped in front of me taking the bullet that was meant for me and the high light was running on the screen saying, ‘Shooting on 5th Ave in broad daylight, victim is an unknown male, shooters still on the loose.’ “Fuck” That’s when Bella lost it and started crying, sobbing repeating, it could have been you, it could have been you. If it wasn’t for Enzo, I knew it would have been me, but I’m definitely not going to say that. Then she said “If it wasn’t for Enzo, they would have shot you.” “I know sweetheart, I’m so sorry I didn’t tell you; I see now it wasn’t the right decision.” “You only saying it because I’m crying Massimo.” “No sweetheart I’m not. I should have told you.” “You right you should have, if Enzo wasn’t with us.” “Sweetheart he was, let’s not think like that.” I picked her up and put her in my lap holding her and rocking her. When she finally calmed down, I asked her “Will you be okay if I go and make a few phone calls Bella? I need to sort this shit out.” “I’ll be okay Massimo, after everything I’m dead tired I’ll probably fall asleep.” “Okay, I’ll just be in my study.”
I walk to my study and before I could phone Damon, he phoned me “God Massimo you okay, how’s Enzo.” “I was just about to phone you Damon, I’m fine, Enzo got hit in the side luckily it missed all the organs.” “What happened Massimo, why are you guys back in the city?” “We had a few errands to run, we’re back at the house now.” “Was it the Ricci’s?” “Yes Damon” “Fuck, fuck, so I need to be careful?” “I would definitely recommend you not going out in the open at the moment Damon, especially with Dani.” “I understand Massimo, but why is it on the news?” “you know the people and their damn habits of recording everything. I’m going to phone Frank now and find out if he could do something, but I probable need to phone mom and dad first.” “You probable should.” “Damon by the way, the gathering on New Years Eve will be formal please.” “No problem, Massimo, regards to Rachel.” “Will do Damon, but I’m sort of in the dog house.” “I can only think.” “Cheers.” Then I phoned my mom and dad and told them everyone is okay and Enzo will recover we didn’t need to worry about him. I also convinced my mother to come to our ‘Party’ New Years Eve, I was quite impressed with myself. As I was about to phone Frank a loud scream came from the lounge. “Fuck Bella” I ran to her.
