Chapter 17: Shock
Marcella stopped a taxi and got in. Aiden got in with her. Marcella couldn’t care less. She gave the address of Paul Romano’s residence.
Paul Romano’s house was on the Upper East Side. The traffic tested her patience. But Aiden’s voice irritated her more. He’s been asking her for the past thirty minutes if she had any idea about this and that. He didn’t stop questioning her although she answered "Don’t know" to all of his questions.
She didn’t know if he was being an ass purposefully or if he was that dumb. She wanted to push him into the traffic just to stop hearing his voice.
But she didn’t have the luxury to go to jail now. She has to see her sister.
"Is this a good idea to visit Paul Romano? That guy didn’t let you visit your sister when she was alive. He’s not~"
"I know. Will you please shut up?" She snapped at him.
Aiden waved his hand in a surrendering motion. ’Don’t get mad. I’m just worried for you..."
Marcella felt bad for snapping at him seeing his apologetic face. He must have work and yet he is here to support her. She would be better alone, but his thought counted.
Ah, it’s Aiden. He probably has his own agenda. But he’s here, right?
Marcella’s head hurt as she contemplated. She couldn’t trust Aiden but she didn’t want to be nasty to him when all he did was try to be supportive.
