Waiting impatiently for someone to say something, Nikandr slapped Jackson on the back of the head and growled, “Speak!”
“Jesus!” Jackson groaned, rubbing the back of his head. When Nikandr reached for his gun and placed it at Jackson’s temple, Loverboy raised his hands in defeat. “Fine! I’ll speak. Just don’t shoot me!”
“I’m waiting,” I growled.
“Illyria had me file divorce papers a week ago. I got a judge to sign off on them. Your divorce will be final in thirty days.”
“Which judge?”
“Judge Matthews. Over at city hall. It’s too late. The courts filed the papers. You can’t stop it.”
I smirked. “That’s what you think. Rurik, call Virginia Stone. Tell her to make it go away today. If she can do it within the hour, I will owe her a marker. Then you and Aleksandr find this judge,” I said, getting to my feet.
Reaching for my coat, I walked around my desk as Loverboy quickly asked, “What about me?”
Putting my coat on, I looked at the smarmy fucker and asked, “What about you?”
“I just did what she asked!”
“You didn’t work for her. You worked for me.”
“I owed her!”
“You didn’t owe her anything. You owed me because I let you live after touching what was mine. I don’t give second chances. You know that. Goodbye Mr. Deveroux.”
Walking out of my office, I never flinched when I heard the retort of Nikandr’s gun going off. Vladmir fell in line right behind me as I left my house in upstate New York and headed back to the city.
I had a judge to see.
Walking out of the judge’s house, I headed for my car, climbing into the backseat. Vladmir, following as Aleksandr started the vehicle, driving away, Rurik sitting beside him.
“Call Dmitry and have the clean-up crew take care of the mess.”
“Mrs. Stone called. She’s taken care of the problem as if it never happened.”
“Good.”
“Montana called. He needs to talk.”
“He say why?”
“No boss,” Vladmir muttered. “Only that you would want to hear what he had to say.”
Sighing, I nodded. “Aleksandr. To Stone House.”
“He also informed me that Giovanni Valentinetti will be at the meet.”
“So, big brother has finally left his island,” I smirked. “Anything on Illyria?”
“No boss. Like us, every stone we’ve kicked over has resulted in nothing. Your wife has left no trail.”
“I taught her well.”
“Too well,” Vladmir groaned. “Look, boss, every Bratva organization around the world is looking for her. That’s not including the Mafia families. Now, Montana has entered his club in the hunt. She is the most wanted woman on the planet. There is no place she can hide. We will find her.”
“We need to find her first.”
“We will boss. You need to give us time.”
