“Why would you go alone, Nyla?”
“Because I felt everything having to do with Cono and Gianney was my fault.”
“Baby, they’ve been after us for years. You were just their pawn to use and dangle in my face.”
“Can you forgive me?”
“Never was mad, but going off and doing things on your own is not an option.”
“I want to help.”
“No.”
“Vincenzo, I’m a big girl, I can handle Gianney, let me talk to him.”
“You already tried talking to Cono, and nothing came out of it.”
“It will be different this time.”
“How?”
“By having you there. By going as a team.”
“He’s held up at the cabin.”
“You caught him?”
“Before you passed out, we wounded him and got him locked up. He’s not talking, but we were able to search his place of business and his clubs. Nothing was found.”
“I might be able to help.” Shoving the covers back, Nyla reached for her purse and tensed up at the pain.
“What are looking for?”
“I need my purse.”
I picked it up from the nightstand and handed it to her.
Searching her bag, she removed her cell phone, scrolling through messages. “At first when I saw him, he gave me directions to his place of business.”
“Okay. We searched and didn’t find anything.”
“What if the numbers were to a safe?”
“Maybe, our tech team will need to descramble the numbers.” I groaned and started to stand to leave.
“Wait! I’m coming.”
“Nyla, you need sleep.”
“No, we need to get to the bottom of the bullshit together.” Grabbing a hold of her robe, she tightened it around her waist.
“One hour you can stay up with me, while I make some calls.”
After clasping our hands together, I stepped out of the room and strolled to my office. Most of the guys lingered around, on the phone, coming and going, while the guards stood on alert. My parents called all night, checking up on Nyla, wanting to be there, but I felt it would be too much—plus, her friend and my sisters-in-law hovering only kept her from resting.
“Sit here on the couch.” I pointed, watching her roll her eyes and slowly sit back with her legs kicked up under the pillow.
“While you make calls, I should have the guys search Gianney’s bank records.”
