    Lorenzo’s POVBack at the lab, the guard showed me the list of men who had visited my brother. As expected Isabella came to say goodbye to her son, then some members of his country club. “why did you allow members of his country club to see him?”“they said they were very close friends. They were just two of them.”“I know that. Do you allow just anyone to walk in on an investigation especially people who are not related to the person?” “I heard they were good friends of the captain.” the guard shrugged.“hm”I looked at the list again and saw Dr.Andre.“this man isn’t family.” I said pointing at Dr. Andre’s name.“he came as a consultant.” the scientist chirped in.“consultant??”These guys have got to be kidding me.

The long table in room had silver wares displayed on it and the most beautiful chandelier hung down. It looked better than the one in the pent house. “wow! It looks and smells delicious”“well, wait till you try it.”Pablo opens the dish for me. I must say these two put in the effort to treat me well.“thank you, pablo”“the pleasure is mine.” he said pouring me a merlot. I hope Elena doesn’t suspect I am with her key card. She leaves the dining room to the kitchen and comes back with desert.“ohh chocolate cake”“i thought you would need it after everything today” She is so kind and considerate. “awwww, thanks. I could really use a chocolate cake.”After my mom’s news. And Elena doesn’t look like she is looking for the key card. “do you have any idea when Lorenzo would be back?” I asked as I cut through the grilled meat set before me.“no.”“what a

    “Why did he tell us to leave the study? It was dirty and needed some cleaning.”“Ava, it’s not easy for some people to process grief. That was his father’s study”Shit Ava. How could you be so insensitive? However I saw something in that study that looked like people I see in my dreams. Those group of people and that man. I know Lorenzo is in the bloodline of the mafia, were they his family? Oh my God I need to figure this out.I drummed my fingers on my head.
