Mi Amore

Chapter 19-Grayson

I groan as I wake up from a fairly good night's rest.I wake up and go shower for work.I wear my classic work clothes and walk downstairs.Once I get downtown I am met with a pale Sergio"Bonjour Chef"He says."If you're constantly sick, why are you here?"I ask more rhetorically."There's a mole Chef"He says.Much to my shock, I have a feeling I know who it is.

I nod and say, "Fair reason."I gesture for Sergio to follow me.I walk to my garage and unlock my Jesko.I get in the car and wait for Sergio to get in.Once his in, I start the car and speed to Bartholomews apartment.I open my door and walk up to his apartment and knock on the door."Enter."A deep voice rumbles.I open the door and see Bartholomew in black slacks and a white dress shirt."Bonjour Chef,"he greets."Bonjour Neveu,"I say.

"Need anything?"He asks."Mole in the system,"I say, shocking him."Want me to hack?"He asks."No,but you need to come with us to my club,"I say.He stands and straightens his shirt.I signal them both to follow me.We walk to my car and get in.I start the engine and speeding to my club.I park and walk in.As we walk in I see a drunk Anastasia and a few other girls with her.I walk straight upstairs to my office and sit in my chair.Sergio and Bartholomew walk in and sit on the couch opposite from my desk.

"We need to see Robert and check for any suspicious activity in him before anyone else."I say."But what about everyone else in our Mafia,we can't have someone with our information,"Bartholomew says."What about - gunshot. A gunshot cut Sergio off as I stand and go to the glass showing the whole of downstairs.I see everyone is gone, meaning we can close early.I signal Bye and Sergio to follow me."Let's go to Robert,"I say as I sigh.We get to the car, and I speed to Robert's warehouse.

Once we get there, a guard stops me and says, "No visitors."I chuckle, looking at the guard trying to act tough.I push the guard aside, and we walk to Robert's office.Once we get there, we see the musty Robert Radisio, a  man so skinny you swear he was a twig."Ah, Mr Da La Renta."He greets.I nod and sit to the chair opposite his."I hear we have a mole now, Radisio. You know what I do to dishonest and unloyal people."I say."Y-Yes Chef...I need to do something quickly, please excuse me,"he stutters."You were supposed to scare him, not make him piss his pants, and Im gonna go take a smoke,"Bartholomew says.

I shrug and fix my silver cufflinks.The heavy metal door is opened, revealing two women, including mon amour.Her eyes beam with anger and fury, and that black dress she is wearing isn't making it better.I get up to speak to her when Sergio jumps in front of me,but I didn't doubt his decisions.Anastasia steps forward and kicks him in the torso.Sergio trys to throw a punch but she ducks and punchs his stomach.Sergio slightly curls over at the pain and she takes the chance and elbows him.He instantly collapses to the ground.She takes his gun and walks up to me.She points the gun at me as I grin and take her wrist.She shoots my arm as her friend mutters something that has her bolting.

They leave the room, leaving me and an unconscious Sergio."GRAYSON MOVE LETS GO,"Anastaisa shouts as she hauls Sergio over her shoulders before sprinting out the room.I follow her, not knowing what happening.Just as I make it outside the warehouse blows up and I realize that Robert wanted us dead.Anastasias drops Sergio to the floor and limps over to her friends leaving me frozen in spot."I feel a bit dehydrated, yall,"her soft voice rasps."Let's go home."Her friend says."Definitely,"her other friend suggests as she calls a taxi."Yall, I dont think this is normal,"she said, leaning against a SUV.Robert was dumb when it came to this because his warehouse was in the middle of the city.

They got in the taxi and sped away like they were never here.I dig for my phone in my pocket and call Bartholomew."Hello?"He answers."Get back to the warehouse.Now."I say before hanging up.I glance down at Sergio, who just woke up."Get up,"I demand.He drags himself up and shakes his head slightly.I dig for my car keys and open the car just as Bartholomew rounds the corner.Sergio stumbles to the backseat and gets in.I get in the drivers seat and start the car just as Bartholomew drops in seat beside me.I speed to his apartment and park when we get there."Au revoir,"he says and walks towards the building.I nod and speed away.

Once we get home, I glance at the backseat and see Sergio knocked out cold in his seat.I shake his knee as he wakes up"Go to sleep Sergio,just not in my car"I say as I get out the car.I walk to my room not bothering to eat and change into grey joggers and take out my first aid kit.I treat my wound and go to bed
