Chapter 211: Walking Into A Trap
"Let’s not talk about anyone’s wife or mother-in-law," Lionel gladly took the mediator role. "Unless Kastello has something related to the Vitale family..." he asked.
Leander looked at Nicholai and he had gone silent. Nicholai probably didn’t expect him to talk back without using his gun. He does want to shut Nicholai forever, but it’s not prudent to do it right now.
Nicholai mumbled something and walked to his seat. With a glass of tequila, he settled.
Leander scrolled through his phone. He then showed a picture to Nicholai. "It’s Tabitha Bruno with Vito Vitale in one of your properties."
Nicholai squinted his eyes. "It looks old... when was it taken?" he asked. "Is that my dad in the background...?"
"It looks at least two decades old," Lionel gave his input. "Where did you get it?"
"My grandpa had it. He said this probably is the reason the Vitale family is here. I don’t think my grandfather has any more details to add. He did say that your mother-in-law was loose and tried to connect with any man with influence even after her marriage with Bart Bruno although she had a daughter."
Leander said in a flat tone. His grandfather said that it was one of the reasons he didn’t approve of his marriage with Helena back then. He didn’t know why his grandfather didn’t mention it then or even when he talked about the Vitale family.
But he sent this picture to his phone.
It seemed like an excuse to Leander. His heart was unsettled as he had doubts that his grandfather was not doing enough to protect his wife. That was the reason he arranged this meeting when his grandfather refused to sit for a meeting of the three families of the South.
"Even if that was the case, why is your wife marked?" Nicholai asked.
Leander looked at him blankly. He does not know the answer to that question either.
