“Sometimes I’d wake up at night and wonder what color it was. Money. The root of all evil, yet necessary. Rent was still due, so I had to get back to work.

Stalling my earnings. That’s what he was doing. Slimy creep. I couldn’t get out of him the reason why my cases had to coincide with Jagger’s and who...se idea that was, but figured Jagger had some kind of gag order on Fabio—even if he owned the business. Jagger didn’t work for Scarpello and Tonelli Insurance Company, but being Jagger, he seemed to have influence wherever he went.
