Just as I said it, someone knocked on my door.
“Oh my God, Remy. Someone’s knocking at my door.”
“Really? You should probably answer it.”
“But what if…”
“You’re gonna want to answer it.”
I got up keeping the phone to my ear. Approaching the door slowly, I leaned in and looked through the peephole.
“Remy,” I said flinging the door open and throwing my arms around him. “How did you know I was here?”
“I told you to go somewhere people wouldn’t look for you.”
“And no one goes to Jersey?” I asked sarcastically.
“Not willingly,” he joked.
I laughed and swatted his arm.
“You came here.”
“That just shows how in love with you I am,” Remy said with a smile.
“You love me so much you’re willing to come to Jersey.”
“It’s a love song that writes itself.”
I laughed. “But seriously, Remy, what happened?” I asked ushering him in and onto my couch.
“It’s over,” he told me as he stared into my eyes.
“Really? Armand’s going to jail?”
Remy paused. “Weeeell…”
“What?” I asked feeling my heart drop.
“What I can tell you for sure is that there’s nothing that can stop us from being together.”
“Eris?”
“She’s now on our side?”
“And Armand?”
“He’s agreed to leave us alone in exchange for me not destroying his world.”
“So, you blackmailed him?”
“Pretty much,” Remy said proudly.
“And how does Jimmy feel about not being able to put Armand away?”
“He doesn’t like it, but he thinks it’s because he gave us faulty information. I told him that only the cleaned ledger was in the safe and I’ve made arrangements to give it to him.”
“But, you found both ledgers in there?”
