As soon as the door to the plane opened, Remi, Gabriel, and I sprinted to the town car. Just as Lincoln had promised, he’d sent his car, and David stood with the door open.

“Mr. Eastwick is awaiting you at your wife’s home.”

“Thank you, David, it’s good to see you again. How have you been?”

As anxious as I was to get to Bethany, it didn’t mean I had to be rude by sitting in silence. He’d been Lincoln’s assistant and driver for as long as I can remember and had become a good friend to me over the years.

“Good, Mr. Rizzuto. It’s been very quiet around here with you and Ms. Bethany away. Glad to see you’re back in town.”

“Good to be back, my friend. Though I’ll only be here for a short time. My wife will be staying for a bit, though, I fear.”

“Your son has become quite the family protector and almost as controlling as you are.” David chuckled.

I laughed at the comment. Maybe it was taking a life or all the incidents up to that night that he couldn’t control that finally showed him the importance of being in charge. The necessity that he be one step ahead of everyone had him realizing authority was the only way to manage that.

It also made me realize that as hard as I’d tried to keep him out of the family business, he’d gained my traits over the years, making him a natural leader when the time came.

David pulled the car into the circle drive, stopping in front of the main entrance. Gabriel, Remi, and I had barely gotten out of the vehicle when the front door opened, and Jefferson stood with his hands on his hips, waiting for us to join him. I’d barely graced the top step before his tantrum flew from his mouth.

“Can you believe how reckless Mom is? What was she thinking? She could have gotten herself hurt and, better yet, where were you when all this was going on?”

“Good to see you too, son,” I said as I pushed past him and into the home. Why he thought I’d stop to answer his questions was beyond me. Gabriel and Remi followed behind as I made my way to the family room. There I found Bethany and Giovanna sitting with Lillian. Nicco and Lincoln stood by, watching over the women. However, upon noticing our arrival, they excused themselves.

“What do we know?” I asked once we were behind closed doors.

Lincoln was the first to speak. “Bethany reached out to Lillian
