Chapter 219
Rachel
I walked to Massimo office, I found him with his hands in his hair. He looked totally defeated and I didn’t like it one bit. “Massimo?” He looked up at me “Bella” “Are you okay?” “I seriously don’t know. The Hamptons police is harassing Francesca they trying to connect your kidnapping to the Ricci’s burn down house. We need to go down there tomorrow and set them straight, tell them what they want to know.” “Okay we will sort that out tomorrow and Lizzy’s ‘body’?” “That’s sorted out, Luca’s connection will get another body basically the same age and put that in her report.” “Okay so we sorted Lizzy out, we going to the Hamptons tomorrow. What about the reporter?” “We can’t do anything to him at the moment. Frank is going to call him in for questioning. Then we’ll know what he knows.” “If we have a plan for all the problems, why are you looking defeated Massimo?” “Because no reporter can be that clever, we always cover our tracks always, that means he has an inside source, whether it is from my side, Damon side or Edcardo, Costa or Romano’s side but someone is talking.” “We’ll sort this out Massimo if the reporter has a source he’ll have to tell Frank, then we’ll know for certain, hopefully he will tell Frank where he found him then we can track down the mole like that.” “Thank you, Bella,” “For what Massimo?” “For telling me we will sort this out and being logical at the moment whereas I just want to kill the whole fucken lot.” “No Massimo we can’t just go around killing innocent people.” I smiled at him. He walked around his table and gave me a big hug. “I love you so much Rachel Marchetti.” “I love you too.” Then his phone rang he looked at the screen and said “The real estate agent” “Marchetti speaking” He put the phone on speaker “Mr Marchetti my client said if you make it 4.1 million cash, he’ll sell.” “We’ve got a deal.” “Good I’ll get the paper work started.” I jumped up and down “At least some good news today.” “At least.” “Massimo I was thinking and I know it’s not top priority at the moment but what if we can buy the dining room, living room and TV rooms furniture. It looks like the furniture was made for that house.” “I’ll phone the agent back and asked her Bella.” “Only when you have time Massimo as I said it’s not on top of our priority list at the moment.” “I’ll see what I can do.” “I’m going to tell Lizzy the good news so long.” “Okay Bella.” I walked and went looking for Lizzy, I found her in the living room. “Lizzy, I have good news, Massimo said you will be declared dead as well so nothing to worry about.” “Oh, that’s a relieve. Thank you, Rachel. Rachel is it possible for Davide to take me back, I’m very tired.” “Nonsense you staying here until you get on that plane tomorrow. You can use the room you used earlier.” “Are you sure?” “Off course I am.” “Thank you, then I’m going to lie down for a bit.” Lizzy went to sleep and I went to the kitchen to make Massimo and me something to eat I knew he won’t get something himself. Especially when his like this.
Massimo
Everyone has called except Damon. I decided to phone him maybe he didn’t see the news yet. “Massimo” He answered. “Damon, have you seen the news yet?” “No, we’re on our way back from Florida, we took Nikki home.” “Oh yes, I remember.” “What’s wrong?” “There was a whole segment about the fire at the Ricci house apparently there is a reporter that dig into the matter and the NYPD is looking into the case. The reporter said he knows who the mafia families are and he knows who is the head of them. He also said Ricci was pulling away and that the rest retaliated.” “Fuck Massimo, what now?” “Frank is going to question the reporter and probable take the case back from the NYPD. The thing is, he can’t be hostile towards the reporter. We need to know what he knows Damon. I guess I don’t even have to tell you Ramano, Costa and Edcardo are not happy.” “I can only imagine.” “They want to get rid of the reporter but we can’t do that, it will bring more heat. Then there are also the Hamptons police that is harassing Francesca, they wanted to know if Rachel’s kidnapping and the fire that was on TV has anything to do with each other. Rachel and I are going to them tomorrow.” Fuck Massimo, how did they put 1 and 1 together?” “I have no idea. But I’ll bet my whole fortune it’s that young officer making waves.” “What do you need from me?” “Just watch your back Damon. I’m telling you that reporter has someone his talking to. We always cover our tracks someone is talking to the wrong people.” “I’ll do that and keep me updated.” “Will do Damon.” As I finish the call Bella walked into my office with a sandwich and an espresso. “Ah thank you sweetheart, I didn’t realize how hungry I was until know.” “I knew it Massimo.” “Where is Lizzy?” “She’s tired I told her to use the guest bedroom to sleep. I also told her she will be sleeping here tonight. I hope you don’t mind.” “No Bella I’m good with it if you are?” “Off course or else I wouldn’t have offered.” “You are a remarkable human being, Bella.” “No, I’m not Massimo.” “Anyone else would have crucified her for her father’s sins, but not you.” “You neither Massimo.” “But I didn’t go through what you went through.” “It wasn’t her fault, let’s leave it there. What time is her flight tomorrow?” “9 am, I’ll let Davide take her and then you and I can go and sort the shit out in the Hamptons.” “Can we stay a night?” “I think that’s a good idea Bella maybe more than one night. It would be good to be out of the city at this point.” “Great. And the house deal?” “We could do everything from there no need to be here for that.” “I think it will do us both good. And it will give me time to process what happened there as well.” “I haven’t even thought about that Bella, you sure you’ll be okay?” “I love our house in the Hamptons Massimo, I won’t let them keep me away from it. I just won’t.”
