He felt Bugsy was too impulsive, and this was exactly why. He might even pass him up to officially run the casino after this. All Bugsy ever truly wanted. It all depended on the fallout.
He ran a hand down his face. “Not happy. He gambled with my future, Big. Made me throw the dice, let that decide whether I was in or out of Paradiso’s future. If the dice would have landed a breath the other way, I’d be banished to New York. New York!”
No one could ever accuse Giordano Capitani of fitting in in New York. He was Vegas through and through.
“What happened after you rolled the dice?”
He sat back in his chair and closed his eyes. “Marriage.”
“To who?” Since his eyes were closed, I grinned some. “And when?”
“To whom has been taken care of. As of when?” He opened his desk drawer and produced a gold wedding band. “Done.”
“Who is she?”
A knock came at his office door. He told whoever it was to come in.
She looked between us. “Oh. I’ll—”
“I remember you.” A shit-eating grin came to my face. She worked at Dynamic.
“I remember you too. Is Leo here?”
I told her where she could find her, and when I turned back to Gio, he looked like his face had been drained of blood.
“I’m truly fucked.” He drank down the rest of the whiskey.
It would take Gio time to accept this. He was an eternal bachelor and had one of the hardest heads I’d ever encountered. But I thought marriage was going to be good for him—eventually.
I poured myself a glass of water. “You’re in a new club now.” I tapped my glass against the bottle and said, “Saluti,” before I downed it.
