TAINTED SINNERS
CHAPTERONE
Jack
“It’s a nice house,” Jimmy grumbles, peering up at the beautiful brownstone, the bricks glowing in the yellow light of the street lamps. I grunt in acknowledgment, staring down at the folder in my lap. “I bet it’d cover her debt if she sells it to us, Boss.”
“Good thing I don’t pay you to calculate the odds, Jimmy,” I say listlessly. “Do you think someone with this kind of debt, whether it's her father's or her own, can afford the inside of that place? No, it most likely needs a lot of work. Let's go in before you break out the money clip.”
“I only skimmed her file,” He replies, and I glance over as he grins saucily. “She’s got a nice rack.”
“Yeah,” I agree distractedly. I’m not interested in her looks; just about the fact that Heather Lewis owes a quarter million dollars courtesy of her father’s horrendous gambling habit.
The damn bastard even had the audacity to die before making amends. I'm sure I could have found a pricey, shady lawyer I had dirt on — there are numerous legal issues he could have handled for me that would have reduced his debt. “There is not much in here from before 5 years ago, though. This was all your guy could dig up on her?”
Jimmy hums as I hold up the thin folder, displeasure twisting my expression. “Nothing else?”
“Her mother died. There is nothing really from high school. The only thing I found that goes that far back is the obituary, but otherwise... it’s really unremarkable. Heather Lewis moved here after that, taking a gap year between high school and college. She worked at a pet store,” Jimmy shrugs.
“Normal stuff. She’s got no credit cards and a mountain of student loan debt, but she graduated with honors. Got a job at a nice, private elementary school. Honestly, Boss, I don’t know if she’s even worth going after. We should go after Frankie. He won’t be that easy to find, but we know he’s got money, and he’s not exactly in your good book right now, Boss.”
“We’ll see. You’re right, though. Keep up the search,” I slide the folder between the driver's seat and the center console before removing the keys from the ignition. Jimmy steps out of the passenger seat, and I close my eyes and take a deep breath.
“Weshouldgo after Frankie, but since I can’t find him fast enough, his sister will have to do.”
My whisper escapes through the crack in the door as I open it, and climb out. Heather Lewis' brownstone is large, regal, and expensive, just like the others on this street. However, there are no flowers in the front beds. When I go inside, I'm sure there will be some damage that she can't afford to repair.
But that's fine. There are various non-monetary ways to repay a debt.
