Chapter 8
One of his guys spoke up. “Mr. Rothschild,maybe she’s still in the hospital? That hand was pretty fucked…”
Vincent suddenly remembered driving that blade through Scarlett’s palm two nights ago.
He pushed down the weird feeling. “Track her down. Whatever hospital she’s at, get those papers to her.”
His guy grabbed the envelope and headed for the door.
“Hold up.” Vincent stopped him. “After you find her, put a couple smart guys on her. She’s got a temper-might try something with Ruby.”
“If she makes any moves, snatch her brother. Kid gets roughed up if necessary. She’ll fall in line.”
Past midnight, Vincent went up to the penthouse.
This used to be his and Scarlett’s place.
The floor-to-ceiling windows showed off the whole city-neon lights and endless possibilities.
Scarlett used to point at half those lights and laugh about how it was all their kingdom.
He ripped off his tie in frustration, then heard soft sounds coming from the bedroom.
Was she back?
Made sense. Where else would she go?
But this was Scarlett-sneaking back here wasn’t surrender.
