Chapter 82 - 82

As soon as Ian got the information from Camilla, they all went back up to their own rooms. Leon and John lived on the same floor, the one below Camilla and Ian.

When they stepped out they all agreed to talk about what Marco would have to say to Ian once he had spoken to the older assistant.

At first Ian was hesitant to contact Marco on a weekend, but John reassured him that Marco didn't care. He normally worked weekends too.

"The man barely has a life." John said. "I really hope that our boss isn't that demanding. I mean okay it isn't the CEO's fault it's Marco's too. He doesn't do weekends or days off, he just keeps working."

"Plus it's not like Marco needs the money." Leon said as he shook his head.

"Yeah, Marco comes from a wealthy family, as a matter of fact he is related to the Chan family, the ones that own Saints Hospital!" John said as he told Ian and Camilla more about Marco. "But from what I heard he once had a fiance, I don't know what happened but I don't think they broke it off."

"Okay, enough gossip from you." Leon said as the elevator doors opened to their floor. He quickly grabbed John by the back of his shirt and dragged him out of the elevator.

"Don't forget to give us a call what Marco tells you what you're supposed to do next!" John called out as the elevator doors closed behind them.

Ian and Camilla both couldn't help but laugh at how silly John was acting. It was incredibly entertaining to watch how he and Leon interacted.

It seemed that they had already known each other for quite a while, since neither seemed uncomfortable in the other's presence. 

"So what do you plan on telling your sisters?" Camilla asked as the elevator doors opened to their floor.

"What do you mean?" Ian asked as they stepped out into the hallway.

"I mean, it will be a shock to them to find out the horrible things Manuel did to you?" Camilla asked with a frown.

She really didn't want to mention it anymore because she could see how much Ian had suffered at that man's hands.

"My sisters have always known what I've suffered from Manuel." Ian said as he shook his head. "They aren't children, they watched as I got rejected from every university and every scholarship that I applied for. They heard every rumor in school and they even got called names on my behalf."

"So Sam and Karina were also victims of Manuel?" Camilla asked.

"Come." Ian said with a nod as he opened his door and invited Camilla in.

"You're back!" Sam said excitedly as she and Karina ran over and hugged their older brother. "Did you deal with him?" She asked.

Camilla was surprised to see the sudden shift in Sam's expression. She was no longer the happy and energetic girl from earlier. 

Her eyes seemed to burn from anger and hate as she asked her brother if he dealt with Manuel.

"It's in the works." Ian said with a shrug as he sat on the couch. "Camilla got to see first hand how despicable he and his sister are." 

"Mica." Karina hissed.

"You guys knew her?" Camilla asked in a surprised tone.

"Mica bullied us all our lives, well at least when we weren't rich anymore." Sam in an angry tone as she clenched her fists and looked away. "She was the reason I almost dropped out of school."

"I hope you and Ian deal with her." Karina added as she took a seat next to Ian.

"Oh, right, Ian there was something I learned that you might find interesting." Camilla said in a scheming tone as she joined the siblings on the couch. "I learned it from Mica."

"Okay, shoot." Ian said as he listened to Camilla.

"I found it odd that the person they were planning on meeting had the same name as a new friend of ours from work." Camilla said with an intrigued look.

Ian already had an idea who, but he wanted to hear it from Camilla herself. Maybe there were other employees of the Reyes Group that were involved with the underworld.

"A new friend of ours?" Ian asked. "Who?"

"Seth Dean." Camilla said with a proud grin.

"And how is Seth involved with them?" Ian asked.

"Well it seems that Manuel wants to join the Dean Family mafia, or at least do business with them." Camilla began to explain. "According to Mica, Seth is the new head of the Dean family and that if they managed to impress him they would be made for life."

Ian couldn't help but laugh at Mica's assumption. He knew the truth, and it was time Camilla found out too. After all, he had agreed to have dinner with Seth as the restaurant the next day.

"So, what do you think?" Camilla asked Ian as she waited for his response. 

"Okay, don't get too pissed, but I've known since last night that Seth, our officemate Seth is the next head of the Dean family mafia." Ian revealed. 

Camilla was shocked at his words, she thought the man simply had the same name as the Seth they knew. Her mind was blown to hear that it was the same person.

"So Mica was right?" Camilla asked.

"A little." Ian replied with a shrug. "Seth the reluctant heir to the head of family title, and I don't think someone like Manuel or Mica could impress him." Ian said with a laugh.

"Will you tell Seth?" Camilla asked. 

"Yeah, tomorrow, we will have dinner with him." Ian said nonchalantly.

"Wait, what? How? Where?" Camilla asked in rapid succession.

"Calm down, Seth lives here in Solaire Towers, he invited us to have dinner just to catch up. He knows who we are and who we work for. It will be nice having someone know for a change." Ian said as she shook his head.

"Ooohh, can we come?" Sam asked her brother. "I want to meet a real life gangster." She said with a grin.

"No, you will go home tonight. And Seth isn't a gangster, gangs are different from the mafia." Ian explained as he recalled his conversation with Seth.

"Whatever they seem to be the same to me." Sam said as she rolled her eyes at her older brother.

"Don't you have a call to make?" Camilla asked as she looked at Ian's phone on the table.

"Fine." Ian grumbled as he picked it up and walked to the side.

Ian searched his phone for Marco's number and as soon as he found it he pressed the dial button.

After one ring Marco picked up the call.

"Hello, Ian?" Marco asked.

"Marco, sorry to call you on a weekend but there is something that came up." Ian said in a hesitant tone.

"Work or personal?" Marco asked.

"Personal." Ian said shyly.

"Wow, you really don't waste any time." Marco said with a chuckle. 

"You heard?" Ian asked.

"No, I just have an idea." Marco said in a confident tone. 

"I'll send you an address, come over, bring Camilla if she wants. Tell me what you guys know and we'll come up with a plan. Be here in an hour.." Marco said as he dropped the call leaving Ian stunned and confused.
