Chapter 146

"I don't understand him..." I whisper when I get back inside the car.

I felt Piato look at me through the rearview mirror but I just remain my gaze out of the window staring at Gianni who's still standing in front of my mother's tombstone facing us.

I suddenly recall what Calcifer told me. He said Gianni didn't attend the last board meeting after his business trip in Russia. I don't exactly know what kind of business he went there, but Cal said that there is something odd with my cousin and he will figure it out and inform me.

I took a deep breath and my phone suddenly rang. Without a second thought, I pull it out from my clutch bag. Vicenzo's name flashes on the screen so I immediately press the answer button, afraid that I might worry him.

"Where are you?" He asks in a low controlled tone of voice without greeting me.

I bit my lower lip and hesitantly look at Piato who also looks nervous because of the sudden call.

"I'm on my way home now"
