Chapter 217
Rachel
“What? Where is she?” “She’s at the club.” “In one of your dungeon rooms?” “Yes Bella, but don’t be so upset, she taking care of.” “Please tell me she has a toilet and not a bucket to pee in. That was so degrading.” “Bella please don’t be upset, she’s got books, proper bedding and gets food every day.” “Why are you keeping her so long? Are you going to kill her?” “To tell you the truth Bella, there was so many things going on I totally forgot about her, but my men didn’t so don’t worry and no I’m not going to kill her or I would have done that already.” “Then what are you going to do?” “She’s getting a name change, so we working on passports and social security number and card, then I’m putting her on a plane to Paris with the understanding she never sets foot on American soil again.” “And how does she feel about it?” “Very happy actually she thanked me for setting her free, but I think it’s more than that, apparently see tried to run away from home when she was 18 but Ricci and his men caught up with her in Paris. I think that is why she chose Paris.” “Does she have cloths?” “No Bella only the cloth’s on her back.” “Well then I think when you done with the paper work you should bring her here we could do some on line shopping or go to the shops.” “You can’t take her to the shops Bella, her father had a lot of enemies and they would do anything to see her dead as well, that includes the other mafia families. That’s one of the reasons she’s still in the dungeon.” “Then why are you letting her go?” “I’m not going to punish her for the sins of her father, she didn’t have anything to do with what they did.” “You sure?” “Positive Bella or I would have killed her already.” “Then bring her here after you done, she can’t leave with just the cloths on her back.” “Bella are you sure?” “Yes, Massimo, I’m sure.”
Massimo left for the office, I got ready for my guest and went to my study ready to look at some furniture and look for inspiration. I like the furniture that was in the house already it looked like it was especially made for the house. I also love the TV rooms set up and the coaches in there it looked cosy and homely. I wondered if the owners will sell us the furniture in the lounge, TV room and Dining room. The rest will be easy to manage. My office I want to copy and paste what I have here. I loved my office. And Massimo’s office we could get the interior designer for and the rest of the rooms. I should make a mental note to ask Massimo about buying those sets of furniture. I made notes of what I wanted in the gym, library, bedrooms especially the baby’s rooms and nursery. Then I sat back and stated questioning myself. Am I really ready to have a Ricci in my house to entertain her to help her buy cloths, to let her sleep here tonight, because that was my plan. I heard the elevator doors open and realised well it’s now too late. Ready or not she is here. Massimo walked next to her and Davide behind her. Massimo was looking at me with eyes that asked ‘Are you sure’ so I just knotted. “Bella this is Ricci’s daughter.” “Hi, may I ask your name? I’m definitely not going to call you Ricci’s daughter the whole day.” “Just call me Lizzy.” “Then welcome Lizzy.” “Let’s get you something to drink.” Massimo gave me a kiss and whispered in my ear “I’ll be in my office if you need me.” I just gave him a kiss back. Davide was hovering in the kitchen. “Davide you can leave us, I’m sure she won’t harm me.” He just looked at me. “Davide leave.” He walked to Massimo’s office probable to go and tell him I chased him away. “So, what can I get you?” “Espresso please.” “True Italian” “Unfortunately it’s in my blood.” “Anything else?” “No, I had breakfast thank you.” I made her espresso and she was looking at me the whole time. I was getting uncomfortable. “Something wrong?” She pointed at my face “My dad did that?” “No Anton did.” “I’m so so sorry Rachel.” It sounded like she was sorry for more than just my bruised face. “It’s over let’s not think of that.” “Why am I here? If you don’t want to tell me how fucked up my family is?” “You had nothing to do with that according to Massimo, you here to get a proper shower or bath and to do some on line shopping, you can’t leave for Paris in that.” “I don’t have money yet, that is what Massimo is busy with know.” “It’s fine I’ll pay.” “I can’t let you; my father and his goon mistreated you and you want to buy me cloths, I can’t.” “Yes, you can, if it makes you feel better you can pay me back but first drink your coffee and go take a bath, I’ll give you something of mine to wear in the mean time.” “I don’t know what to say.” “You don’t need to say anything.” She drank her espresso then I took her to one of the guest bed rooms to take a bath. I could see the smile as soon as she saw the bath. “I might be here a while” she said. “No problem, I’ll go to Massimo’s office and find out how his doing with your money issue. When you done, I’ll be in the living room.” “Thank you, Rachel.”
“Everything okay Bella?” “Yes, everything is fine, she’s taking a bath and then we going to do some shopping.” “But she doesn’t want you to pay for it?” “How did you know?” “She told me she doesn’t want anyone’s money; she’ll rather have nothing.” “That Italian blood” “What do you mean by that Bella?” “Just that you are proud and don’t want any handouts.” “That is true. “I told her she could pay me back when you get her money sorted.” “Did she agree to that?” “Reluctantly, but yes.” “Good, I’ll have her bank cards here in the morning everything is sorted, she’s a very rich women know.” “How did you do it?” “Rather not asked Bella, but I can say it’s all from her father’s accounts.” “At least his going to look after his daughter in death.” “That’s the least that mother fucker could do.” I walked out of Massimo’s office just to find Davide standing outside the door where Lizzy is. “Davide what’s going on?” “Sorry Rachel, I’m responsible for her if something happens to you while she’s here boss will kill me.” “Nothing is going to happen Davide.” “I hear you Rachel but for my own sanity can I keep lurking in the back ground please just until she’s on that plane.” “Fine Davide put if you hear she’s coming out don’t let her see you, I don’t want her to feel like a prisoner.” “Okay Rachel. I’ll try my best.” “That’s all I’m asking.” I went to the living room and put the TV on, I channel hopped and ended up on the news channel, something immediately caught my eye. “Massimo!” I screamed.
