Chapter 182
Massimo
“Good evening officers, how can we help you?” “We need to speak to Mrs Marchetti.” “Whatever you want to say to her you could say to me.” “Fine” the one officer said. “Mrs Marchetti could you tell us what happened?” Bella looked at me then at the officers. “As you could see officers my wife is still traumatized it will be appreciated if you come back tomorrow, or better never.” “Mr Marchetti we can’t not come back it’s our job.” “This is actually an FBI matter officers.” “How? They have no jurisdiction in this kind of case.” I didn’t know what to say but then Frank walked into the room. “Massimo sorry it took so long. Officers how can I help?” “Who are you?” “I’m the FBI agent that has apparently no jurisdiction here.” Frank answered them. “Why exactly is this an FBI case.” “It’s above you pay grade.” Frank said. The officers didn’t like that at all. “Fine, but we still need a statement from Mrs Marchetti.” “I’ll send you one, don’t worry about that, which precinct are you from? Because this crime started in the Hamptons if anyone is getting a statement it would be the Hamptons police station.” The one officer tried again. “We would appreciate a statement agent.” “Give me your card and I’ll send you one,” Frank said. The officer gave Frank his card and they left. “Thank God” “Don’t thank Him yet Massimo, what the fuck happened. Sorry for my language Rachel.” “No worries Frank.” “What happened Frank was, we were in the Hamptons on holiday, the Ricci’s send men after us everyday, low life drug dealers, we took care of them.” “I didn’t want to know the last part Massimo.” “Fine.” “Then the night of our wedding they send more than one vehicle, the guys went outside and chased them away. Two days later Rachel and Dani went to town and my men and Damon’s men were injected with sedatives. Damon gave Dani a gun to take with because we both where scared something would happen. One of the guys tried to take Dani but she fought back while another took Rachel and gave her a sedative as well. Dani shot at the car and that’s it.” “Is there any evidence lying around with these men?” “No there was just 2 unfortunate accidents the other were taken care of.” “Again more information then I needed Massimo. Then how did tonight happen? Obviously, you didn’t go alone?” “No, we attack the Ricci’s compound from four directions. Do I want to know who was with you?” “I don’t think so, we did however find five girls that was held against their will and the ledger of who the other girls were sold to.” “I’ll need that.” “After we made copies, you could get it.” “And the girls?” “I don’t know I rushed Rachel to the hospital, I’m sure they were taken to a safe place, I’ll get the information for you.” “And all the bodies at the Ricci estate?” “It looks like a gas leak everyone will be burned inside. Nothing for you to worry about.” “Anyone still alive?” “One but you not getting him, he’s having his balls for breakfast.” “Who?” “Anton, Ricci’s bodyguard. He will also be the one that raped Rachel so you can’t expect of me to give him to you.” “I do understand Massimo, but I’ll be more careful if I was you.” “Those to officers smelled something fishy.” “You know I’m always careful Frank.”
Rachel
I was lying in bed listening to the officers and Massimo that didn’t want to give them information, I did understand why I just didn’t know how we were going to get out of this. But then Frank walked in and put the officers in their places. I didn’t want to speak to anyone about what happened, not to mention the police. I knew Massimo will take care of Anton. While Massimo spoke to Frank, I realised in this life it’s not safe for me to live with my head in the sand. I needed to know what was going on at all times. Yes I saw the men leave at our wedding but I just didn’t want to know why I also remembered Damon asking Dani to speak to her before we left. That’s probable when he told her about the danger, it was so bad he gave her a gun. “What did you tell the Hamptons officers?” “Not much, I did slip that my wife was kidnapped and they did make an issue about it at least I knew one of the officers so he deflected and said we gave enough information, but I think we would have to write a statement for them to.” “Okay I’ll come around when Rachel is discharged then we can write a statement for both stations something that will please both of them.” “Thank you Frank” “Don’t thank me Massimo I need something in return.” “I’m giving you the ledger as well as five girls that were kidnapped what else can I possible give you?” “I want to ask Anton a few questions, I’m sure he was more involved in everything as what we think.” “You can interview him but, in my basement, and he will not get out of there alive do you understand that, Frank?” Massimo asked him very persisted. “I do understand Massimo.” Frank said his goodbyes and Massimo told him he’ll let him know when I was discharged and when he could interview Anton. When we were alone, I asked Massimo “Did Dani really had a gun with her?” “Yes, Bella she actually shot two guys one in the leg and the other one was with you in the vehicle.” “Oh my God Massimo. She was acting a bit strange in the bakery and at the florist but I just put it of that she was not into that kind of thing. Meantime she was also looking for danger.” “Yes sweetheart.” I started to cry again “I’m so sorry I was a brat Massimo; I’ll listen to you from now on. I’m really sorry I put everyone’s lives in danger.” “Don’t cry Bella I should have insisted.” I half snorted “That wouldn’t have worked Massimo I was set in what I wanted to do.” “Then I should have locked you in the room.” That’s not funny Massimo.” “Sorry sweetheart I didn’t think.”
