I nod. Turning to Helio’s bodyguard, I say, “Get Magnolia. We’re not leaving this meeting until we’ve discussed this with her present.”
Even the damn bodyguard knows who to listen to, because he doesn’t question his master, making a move to turn out of the room.
“No,” Jackson says suddenly, his voice strong and firm. “I’ll do it. I’ll go get her.”
He doesn’t leave us any choice—he’s storming out of the room before anyone has time to stop him.
I turn back to Helio. The goddamn bastard needs to learn that his daughter has a place in his business, and I get a feeling that whoever this hitman is thinks that Magnolia is some precious flower that Helio wants to protect, when really I’ve seen enough of the family dynamic between the Castillos to know that Helio could care less for his daughter.
She’s invisible to him.
I try to calm myself, but I have a feeling that the next couple hours are going to be a fucking try of my patience.
