Chapter 267

Romeo

Ricardo, Lucas and I waited in my office for the Jalis cartel, Noah came walking into the office just before 7 pm, “They are here boss.” “Let them come in.” A big guy walked into the office he didn’t greet any of us he walked in and inspected the office, clearly it was their bodyguard. He walked out and then these two average build guys walked into my office, I would never see them as cartel, never. I got up and walked to the one “Romeo Bianchi.” “Jose Jalis and this is my brother Migual Jalis.” I greeted both of them with a hand shake. “Please take a seat, can I offer you guys something to drink?” “Bourbon please.” Lucas got up and pour each of us some bourbon. “Thank you.” I said as he put it in front of us. I waited for them to each take a sip of their bourbon before I asked them,

“So you wanted to speak to me?” Jose was the one that answered “Yes indeed we do understand that Ricardo and Lucas will be in charge from here on out but we wanted to meet with you regarding the incidents with Sebastian and his cousin.” “Okay what about it?” “We don’t want things to go so far if you are not happy with something we do, in the future.” “Will you try to rat me out to the DEA?” “Off course not.” “Will you follow my wife and me and try to kill us? Will you fly 38 hrs. just to take your revenge and then take it out on my wife?” “Never.” “Well then you have nothing to worry about. I don’t know what is the word on the street but the only reason I killed Sebastian was because he send men after my wife and then he tried to trick me and set me up with the DEA. I would have never killed him if he didn’t do that. And as far as that fucking low life cousin of his was concerned, he wanted revenge he came to my wedding and shot me then he came to my honeymoon and tried to kill my wife and child. That is what happened. If you don’t do me wrong, I won’t do anything to you.” “Well obviously that is not the word on the street. The word on the street is that you got a bad batch of cocaine and that is why you took them out.”

“Yes, well I’m sure they don’t want to say Sebastian was actually a snitch.” “No, they won’t say that. So, we are good?” “Like I said you deliver the goods when and where we ask you, stay in your lane and I’ll stay in mine it’s as simple as that.” “As simple as that?” Migual asked “Yes as simple as that as long is you don’t try to kill me or sell me out to the authorities, I’m good.” “Well then we waisted a trip to Las Vegas.” “Not exactly while you are here, I want to talk about this price you gave Lucas $30K is a bit much per kilo, don’t you think?” “It is what the rest of our buyers is paying.” “Are they going to take as much as we are?” “What do you mean?” “I’m taking 200 kg with every delivery that is 6 million on your price I suggest a price of $25K per kg it leaves you with $5 million every time I buy.” “We didn’t know you are going to take that much at a time, I’m sure we can make a plan.” “Well then in that case, here is a few chips go and enjoy yourself at one of my casino’s, Lucas and Ricardo will go with you. If that was all you wanted to know?” “Yes, we would prefer us speaking about a problem and not killing us.” “Like I said stay in your lane and nothing will happen.” Jose got up then Migual followed “In that case it is going to be a pleasure doing business with you.” “I’m sure the feeling is going to be mutual just please I don’t want my wife in danger anymore so I’m stepping aside and giving this part of the business to Lucas and Ricardo speak to them about everything.” “We will. Thank you for your time.” “Sorry you wasted a trip.” “None since you gave us something that is worth it.” He showed me the casino chips. “Enjoy it.” “Good buy Romeo.” “Good bye Jose, Migual.” When they left, I went to sit in my chair leaning back, I couldn’t believe the story that was running around in Mexico. But if people are scared of me, I’m not going to complain they need to be, but it is like I said if you stay in your lane, I won’t do anything.

I started to think about my wonderful wife Jenn and the fact that she wanted to go to the club, maybe I should organize something for her for next Friday after the opening of her bakery, then all the stress will be off her and we can relax at the club, it’s what she wants and besides when she starts to show she won’t want to go anymore which will suit me, I’m doing this time for her. I immediately phoned Jared, “Romeo you still alive?” “Yes, just a mistake.” “If you say so. What can I do for you?” “I want my room available next Friday stocked and ready.” “No problem I’ll do that for you, you want some champagne in the room?” “No just my choice of bourbon and water lots and lots of water.” “I’ll stock your room for you.” “Thank you, Jared.”

When I put the phone down, I grabbed my jacket and walked out of my office to find Noah waiting for me, “You want to go to the casino boss?” “No home please.” He didn’t quite understand but I wanted to surprise Jenn like she surprised me this morning and it was still early enough to do just that. Besides Jose and Migual is Lucas and Ricardo’s problem from here on out.
