Chapter 6
Remy watched Lizzy sleep. He knew he had to wake her up, but he dreaded it. The money Bancroft had slipped him last night was between him and his Lizzy. Giving it to her was going to cause some trouble. Not for him, he hoped, but when she hunted down Bancroft. That thought made him smile.
âWhatâs so funny?â He leaned over and kissed her. âThatâs a wonderful thing to wake up to, but from the look on your face, Iâd say youâre trying very hard not to tell me something. Why is that? I have never hit you. Tempted at times, really, but Iâve refrained. Just tell me.â
âRichardsonâs maker decided to turn over the money to Bancroft because he is the kiss leader.â She nodded but didnât sit up just yet. âYes, well, after he divided the money up the way he should haveâ By the way, did Kelly tell you that two of the wives had been sold to Richardson? Thatâs the most horrid thing Iâveââ
âStanley Remy, youâre stalling.â He grinned. âYouâre making me very nervous. Just tell me what sort of damage I am going to have to do to Bancroft for giving me the amount that is going to piss me off.â
âYouâre going to murder him, I think.â He handed her the envelope. âI have one as well. Not nearly as much as there is in that one. Cash is the way we usually dish out money like this. It makes it so we can spend it without having to explain how we got it.â
âYouâre babbling again.â She opened the top flap of the envelope and then closed it. âThere is a lot of money in here. Even if it were all ones, which Iâm assuming itâs not, thatâs a great deal of money.â
âItâs all hundreds and fifties. Yes, itâs a great deal of money. As I said, I have one too, as Richardson tried to blame me for making baby vamps and not caring for them.â She dumped the envelope on the bed after sitting up. âI like the way itâs all bundled up. It makes it easier to know just how much is there. Did you count it?â
âThere are two hundred bundles of one hundred dollar bills here, Remy. Thatâs two million dollars. There areââ She counted his hundred bundles. âRemy, there is over three million dollars here. We canât take that. What about the other families?â
âThey were all paid too. A million each. Other than the two families where the husbands sold them, and the family of the woman who only had her father left. He killed himself rather than face the world without her.â She glared harder. âPlus scholarships have been set up to help the victims and others. That makes it easier to explain to someone that a victimâs fund is where the money came from.â
âI donât want this.â He pulled the other three envelopes out from under his pillow. âIf thatâs more money, Iâm not going to be happy. I mean, I love having money, but not at the expense of someone being killed for it.
