‘What the—actual—hell just happened?’ I asked myself blankly.
How had I gone from having a wonderful night with Elio to being straight dumped off at home all within a five-minute time frame?
It was all because of a goddamned phone call.
It didn’t matter how slick he thought he was on the phone with Leo before. I could tell from a mile away that what they were discussing was news pertaining to Antonio and Junior. I obviously couldn’t very well pinpoint the specifics, but for the past few months that was all that business was for Elio.
‘Does he think I’m an idiot to be that naive about what’s been going on?’
I’d told him time and time again that I didn’t want to be left in the dark about issues like these. I needed to know. I deserved to know what had been happening behind the scenes.
