Chapter 33: Tony Was No Different
Marcella looked at Henry. He was silent; he was disgruntled and tried to stop Randy from speaking but he was not refuting Randy’s words. The other men too tried to silence Randy. None of them told him that he was lying.
Randy was telling the truth.
Marcella pressed her lips.
She looked around. Mark Paulo and his men were nowhere to be seen. She didn’t know where they went. But this was better. She cleared her throat and stood straight. Now is not the time she can be discouraged. She needed to be strong.
"What else?" Marcella asked Randy. She wanted to know everything. She needed to process all the information.
"It’s about The Codex... Is there a Codex, Bambi?" Randy asked.
Marcella let out a deep breath. "You guys are watching me?" she asked.
Randy was disappointed that she didn’t answer his question about the codex. "Yes, Bambi. For years it’s... Tony took charge after the don’s death. He’s~"
"The attempt on my life recently... Was that related to the codex?" she interjected Randy. Her hands unconsciously ended up on her abdomen. Tony helped her a great deal that night; at least he pretended to.
"We don’t know. We almost had the guy. But Tony... He killed him before he named names. Bambi, I think Tony got a hand in the attempt on your life," Randy said. His eyes had lit up by now as she was listening to him.
