Chapter 101 “Your boys gave me a hard time downstairs, Credo. I want all of them dead or removed.”“We apologize for the rough hospitality, Signore. They were only doing their jobs”“Their jobs? They are untrained and there are no excuses for that, Credo. The next time I come here,” he said, turning to Credo. “I don't want to catch any one of their faces”“Yes Signore”Credo stopped at the room where their meeting would be held. He knocked on the door.“Please inform 're della that Andrea Rodriguez is here”They waited for a few minutes before the door finally opened. Andrea entered but Credo returned to his duty post“Podrego! How nice to see you again”Podrego looked up from the cigarette he was lighting , his head tipping up slowly.“What did you say?”“Come on, Podrego. Really,? Were you really expecting that I would observe formali…”Andrea heard the swish sound of the sharp metal blade before it stabbed the wall behind him. A slice of the shoulder pad of his suit jacket fell to

Chapter 102The kitchen buzzed with the symphony of sizzling oil as Chef deftly maneuvered the chicken in the pan. The golden coat of mozzarella and potato flour crisped up enticingly, creating a sensory feast. The air was thick with the aroma of boiling ground ginger and garlic, a fragrant dance that embraced the entire kitchen.On the adjacent burner, Chef masterfully stir-fried an array of vegetables in a non-stick pan. With a flick of his wrist, he performed a culinary ballet, tossing yellow and red peppers, precisely diced liver, tender chicken strips, vibrant green peas, onions, and crisp beans. The ingredients melded into a harmonious medley, each piece contributing to the symphony of flavors.A kaleidoscope of colors greeted Chef's eyes as he surveyed the pan with pride. The vibrant hues of the vegetables created a visual masterpiece, a testament to his culinary prowess. Seasoning lightly, he approached the grill where parmesan chicken sizzled, already adorned with a decadent

Chapter 103
Chapter 103“Was it a stroke, doctor? Heart attack?”, Emilio asked.“I doubt. From the results of his last check up, he was in perfect health two weeks ago. What was the doctor's report at the estate clinic when you rushed him there?”“They didn't say much. Said they were running some kind of test. They stabilised him but he was too weak to open his eyes”“And now?”“He hasn't woken up within thirty minutes of him getting back”, Emilio said, a worried expression on his face.”The doctor sighed“We need to take him in.”The doctor managed to stabilize Vincenzo's heartrate which seemed to dangerously accelerate and descend. His hospital ambulance was already inside and Vincenzo was wheeled into it and taken to the doctor's private hospital.“Oh marito mio”, Maria said, wiping a tear off her eyes. “I know that wicked son of yours is the one who did this to you. But you just won't believe it".Andrea joined in the drama, comforting his mother slowly. The staff in the house all tried to co

Chapter 104“I'll have the blood test results compiled and mailed to the house”“Of course. When you can just let me know”, Andrea said, getting to his feet.“Any other update, doctor?”“That will be all”“For how many days is he going to be hospitalised anyway?”Andrea asked.“All things being equal, he should be good enough for home in three days”“If not?”, Emilio asked“A week”So they'd tried to poison Vincenzo? But for what exactly? Something wasn't adding up. Of course he'd been aware of their scheme - the results from the sample of the yogurt the other day was enough to convince him. He'd specifically been on the edge since that day, watching everything Father took. Maria must have noticed and gotten it to his room away from his surveillance. Were they trying to kill him? Nah. He highly doubted that was it. They were trying to create a scenario whereby he'd be the culprit of it all and so far, they thought they'd been really successful. That was all for drama's sake anyway.

Chapter 105The car hit the highway fast and so did Andrea's.“Slow down”, Andrea said as they came up slowly. The rain still poured down abundantly but its intensity had reduced."The guys are in position on the overpass when you reach mile marker 121. Take him slow and steady. As soon as we get a clean shot, this will all be over."Up ahead, brake lights flashed as freeway traffic slowed to a crawl. Emilio's sedan pulled to the shoulder to avoid rear-ending the minivan in front of it. The driver eased off the gas and stopped a few car lengths behind. "Perfect," Marco replied. “I have the car locked in”. He said, zooming in on the screen. “What's the car's description?”"Black sedan, tinted windows. Jersey plates - Frank Zebra Charlie 427.""Got it. I'm relaying that now..." Marco's voice trailed off as he spoke to his men.“Blue edan, tinted windows. Jersey plates - Frank Zebra Charlie 427. Can you see that, Credo?”Credo's neon eyegear searched in the dark. “I've got eyes on the t

Chapter 106“Power off”The smart Tv went off immediately. Andrea took the remote and threw it at his glass window.“Argghh!”“Calmati mio figlio(Calm down my son.). Take a shower. I'll call you when your meal is ready”His mother left and almost immediately his phone rang.“What the hell Andrea?! What was that? I thought you had the G.P.S in his car”“That wasn't the plan! You were supposed to chip the car's but you kept postponing it. I get outside and you talk about a totally different plan!?”“We aborted that plan a long time ago! Shit, you ruined things. You messed this up, Andrea”“Don't you dare pull the blame card on me! Your men weren't ready. Your whole team was wack! Your sniper couldn't even get a single shot. You could have killed him on target! You had him locked in!”“He wasn't even in damn car, Andrea!”“Oh shit!”The cab at the estate gate. That was the same cab he'd seen at the hospital. It was all making sense in Andrea's head. Emilio was never in the car. Emilio ha

Chapter 107“You fucked up the plan Andrea! You messed this up!” Marco shouted, banging the table.“Just shut the hell up, Marco. This is both our fault”“What the f…”, Marco said, charging angrily towards Andrea.“Ei, Calmati! Calmati Marco!( Hey, calm down! Calm down Marco)”Podrego picked up the cigarette that had fallen from his mouth.“Siediti! (sit down)!”, Podrego said, straightening himself on his seat.Marco did as his uncle said, his eyes red with rage. Andrea shrugged looking away, not willing to let his ego slip.“Credo, what happened last night?”“Yes, re della. We were positioned well, waiting for Signore Marco's signal. The signal came and we moved in. Jersey plates - Frank Zebra Charlie 427. That was the plate number. We got into the car - Ardio and I. But it was a set-up, re Della.”“Set-up?”, Podrego said, eyebrows raised, glancing from Andrea to Credo.“Emilio wasn't in the car”“They were in the fucking wrong car!”“You were supposed to chip the damn car, bastard!”

Chapter 108The district head was at the hospital that very next day, waiting patiently for the doctor in his office lobby.“Mr. District, you are here quite early today”“Yes doctor. Buon Giorno”, the district head greeted, rising to his feet and taking the doctor's extended hand for a handshake.“Buon giorno Mr district. I hope I didn't keep you waiting too long.”, the doctor said, taking off his tag to place the access card properly on the door.“Not at all Doctor”Both men entered the office.“Please, take your seat”The doctor took his own seat behind the desk.“Coffee?”, He asked, bringing out a small electric kettle.“No thank you, Doctor. I'm good”“Very well District. I know you are not a coffee man anyway”, the doctor said and the district head was a little amused“You know I've been on shifts all morning so I really need this coffee”“I see the exhaustion in your eyes, Doctor. There's no doubt”“Exhaustion is an understatement”The district head smiled as he leaned on his c

Chapter 109La Rosa D'oro Hotel and Suites.. Asher turned over the pages of the magazine, quite impressed by their structure and facilities. He had to admit; Italian people had a unique way of making themselves exceptional. Even his father's business was one of a kind. His father had created a complex but strongly foundational network which would last him years in business. Yet still he had the best tech brains on board to ensure that his businesses adjusted to technological trends and changes.Garfy was right to suggest they stayed in a hotel for the night. They had to reduce movement to the barest minimum for the next few days. Andrea and his mother were obviously more eager and much more desperate to see him dead.Shit!!.He hated that they'd been so close to getting him. He still hadn't figured out how they'd gotten that bomb in his car. If not for Garfy's quick observance, they'd have all been roasted by now. From now on, he had to be careful. He was in Vernice not America. Not b

Chapter 110Just as Emilio suspected, they had company. From his tinted glass window he spotted what looked like Maria's favorite ride, a metallic silver Rolls-Royce, parked not so neatly in the middle of the hospital compound with a couple of other convoy cars surrounding it. Garfy drove slowly, looking for a space to park. The hospital wasn't built with much outer space and so patients and visitors were usually made to park outside the hospital. But they were the Rodriguez - they couldn't park outside.Garfy eased the car into a corner just spacious enough. Gaius alighted first so he could get the door for Asher. Taking the jacket with him, he went to the other door and opened it. Asher got out and Gaius handed the jacket over to his boss.“Just hold on to it for me, Gaius. Thank you”“Yes Boss”The four men walked over to the entrance of the private section. Garfy, walking ahead, got there first and held the door for the others.“Oh Signore Emilio, you are welcome. Buongiorno Sign
