Chapter 241
Massimo
I was still lying in this sterile room with Bella lying half on top of me and Luca and Marco standing at the door. Apparently, all our stuff has arrived. “Paul find out if we can go and lie in a guest bedroom, please. I’m tired but it looks like Bella is to.” I said without even waking Bella. Luca came back and said the house keeper will take us. “Marco, can you carry Rachel please.” “Off course boss.” As soon as Marco picked Bella up, she screamed, “Put me down, I’m not leaving Massimo.” “Bella, relax we going to the guest bedroom, Marco is only carrying you there.” “Sorry Marco it’s fine I’ll walk.” He put her down and she tried to keep me upright and walk me to the guest bedroom. The house keeper opened the sheets for me and Bella helped me into the bed. The housekeeper then went and closed all the curtains it look like it was night time. “Thank you” Bella said. “No problem, boss said all the curtains will be closed in all the rooms no one will know in which room you’ll be in.” “Thank you. Luca!” I called when the house keeper was out. “Is everyone okay with staying here?” “It’s the safest place for you boss so none of us has a problem with it. Marco and I will make turns standing at your door during the night you have nothing to worry about.” “Little Nick won’t harm us I just want to make sure you guys are okay.” “We are boss.” “Can you send Davide and Aldo back to the Hotel and tell them we will pay for the window.” “It’s already being taken care of boss.” “Okay thank you.” Luca left us and Bella helped me to get comfortable. I was so exhausted I think from the anesthesia that when she pulled the duvet over me, I immediately fell asleep. I woke up later I wasn’t sure how long I was sleeping; Bella was also still sleeping. I’m sure the shock wasn’t good for her and that probable made her tired. I tried to move but every time I moved; I felt the pain shooting through my shoulder. I wanted my phone I needed to see what was going on. The second time I moved Bella woke up. “Massimo lie still you going to hurt yourself.” “I’m fine Bella. Where’s my phone?” “I don’t know I’ll ask Luca.” Bella walked outside and asked Luca for my phone, when Bella came back into the room Luca came with her. “Here’s your phone boss but Little Nicks people did some digging on the dark web apparently there is chatter that you are dead and New York will be up for grabs.” “Fuck I guess Little Nick has a plan?” “Yes, boss he wants you to stay “dead” until tomorrow’s meeting. He wants to surprise Bernardi and the Cartel.” “I understand his reasoning but what happens in New York?” “Little Nick is busy with that as well he said you just need to get your strength back for tomorrow.” “Fine but I need someone’s phone I need to call Damon and tell him what is going on Luca we can’t have him in the dark. He needs to keep everyone under control if something leaks out.” “Use my phone Massimo it would be normal for me to phone Damon if you were dead.” “Okay Bella” “Luca get a scrambler first, I don’t want anyone to trace this call especially not too Little Nicks house.” “Okay boss.”
A few minutes later Luca came back with the scrambler. I connected it to my phone and dialed Damon’s number. He answered immediately. “Rachel are you okay. Where are you, I’ll come and get you?” “Damon it’s me are you alone?” “Fuck M…” “Don’t say my name are you alone.” I could hear him walking then a door closed. “I’m alone. What’s going on Massimo. I almost had a heart attack when Ghost gave me the news. I didn’t want to believe it.” “I don’t even know where to start Damon, I was shot that part is true but, in my shoulder, the head of the Mafia here in Sicily is helping us.” “Where is Bernardi and who wants you dead?” “Bernardi has been thrown out by the Mafia here in Sicily Damon, this whole cartel thing is a ploy for him to get into New York but it seems Bernardi doesn’t know who his dealing with because it’s the Cartel that is trying to get rid of me. Before I knew Bernardi was thrown out I cleaned Italy and made a very good alley there that will help if the Cartel starts up again in any town in Italy. I told Bernardi that and he was furious he kept on telling me then the Cartel will take Sicily and I told him I’m not giving the cartel any territory in New York. Sicily have 95 Mafia families I’m sure they can keep the Cartel out. He didn’t like it and, on our way, back from his house the cartel followed us and tried to kill us. Needless to say, we killed them and burned them in the car. That is where Little Nick came in. He came to see me at the Hotel and I had to tell him everything Bernardi told me then I heard everything was a lie.” “Fuck Massimo, now it makes sense what is happening this side to.” “What’s happening?” “You know that reporter that is making a fuss about the Ricci’s and all the Mafia families and me off course that wanted them dead because we retaliated?” “Yes, what about him?” “His been following me, Ramano and Edcardo but not Costa. We had a small meeting to tell Costa we assume the mole will be in his organization. But what I didn’t tell the others was that the reporter that is calling himself Armand Wasserman was actually born as Fernando Bernardi. Ghost dig deep to find out all the information.” “So, what you telling me is a Bernardi is going around pointing finger at us with the hope they can get rid of us and then Bernardi can take the whole of New York for himself?” “That is what I’m telling you Massimo.” “The Mother fucker.” “What are you doing with the reporter?” “We all got restraining orders against him and Frank is going to leak to the press about the human trafficking and the kidnapping. He’s going to make the Ricci’s the villains and try to squash the reporter story like that.” “Fine, I need to be dead till tomorrow after the meeting if anything happens in New York or anyone calls you just tell them you don’t know we can’t have the families starting to fight about territory that is most definitely not theirs.” “I thought the meeting was scheduled for Friday.” “It was just another thing Bernardi changed since we’ve been here.” “I’ll phone you tomorrow after the meeting and tell you what to do with the reporter.” “Okay Massimo please be safe.” “I will be, thank you Damon.”
