CHAPTER SIXTY-SIX

Still waving, Natasha watched her new best friend enter his car and left. That was the last. She found a chair and slacked onto it, rubbing her feet from the pains that kept coming from there.

"Why do you think Luca came?" Lorenzo asked Matteo.

"To mock you and show that he isn't afraid."

"That has to be the only reason. Did you do what I asked you to?"

"Yes. Like you suspected that this will draw him out and he foolish took the bait. We had everything in place. It will only take a while before we get what we want." He turned to Natasha and back to Lorenzo.

"Vladimir was so fond of her today, I must say. Do they know themselves?"

"No. It was surprising but entertaining. So filling to watch."

"Yeah. We have to leave now."

"Yes. What about the result?"

"It will be out by morning."

"Okay. Get the car ready and let us go home."
