You're not as smart as you think you are.
I know that it was you that had my cousin deported.
For that you will pay. This is just the beginning.
Shit, fucking Juan.
"How did he find out?" My teeth clench at the thought of some fucker betraying me and telling this scumbag that I had his fucking cousin deported.
"I'm working on finding out. Boss, that note was attached to Jorge." He glances at Jagger, whose smile has now vanished, replaced with his dark look.
"What do you mean attached to Jorge?" My temper rising as both Martin and Barney glance at the floor. "Someone better open their fucking mouth and start talking." I say through gritted teeth.
"Jorge's body was found at the back of the club last night. The asshole pinned that to his body." Jagger tells me, shaking his head as he does so. "Fucking tortured him Boss. There's scorch marks on his hands and feet. Ones I've seen before."
I know what he's telling me. The scorch marks tell us he was electrocuted. He may have been the leak but my gut is screaming that it wasn't him. That someone else ratted me out and there's only a select few that knew what my plans were, that was two of the men in this room, Jorge, a police officer, and the damn immigration officer. Someone spilled their guts and when I find out who, I'm going to sew their mouth shut and make them wish they were never born.
"Martin, find out who snitched." I tell him and he instantly gets to his feet. "Your sole duty is to find out who the leak is." He nods once and leaves the room.
I glance at Jagger, he too will be finding out. He's the only one I trust implicitly not to betray me.
"Barney, tomorrow morning, you'll be driving us to the airport. Lacey is flying out tomorrow."
His jaw tightens even more and if he continues he'll break the fucking thing. "Yes Boss." He too gets to his feet and leaves.
"What do you need Hudson?" Jagger knows me too well.
"Someone snitched. There were five people who knew that I set Arturo's deportation in motion. One of those people just left the room. Make sure he's not the one."
Shock registers on his face. "Boss, are you sure?"
"I'm not sure who I trust, so I need you to make sure that he's not betraying me."
"How do you know I wasn't the leak?" He asks and sounds insulted.
I smirk, "You're a lot of things Jag, but you would never betray me."
He looks confused at my comment but nods, "I'll find out for you."
I nod, "How's things between you and Sarah?"
He sighs, "She's making everything about Allie. Anytime I broach the subject of us, she changes it around to say how much Allie is going to love to see me. It's going to be a challenge getting her back into my bed. But you know me Hudson." He smiles widely.
"You never back down from a challenge. Now get the hell out of here, it's time for me to go and see my woman."
The fucker smirks, "See you tomorrow Boss." And walks out of the office.
Just as I'm about to get up off the chair, Dad walks in. "Son, do you have a minute?"
"Sure, what's up?" Mia's going to be asleep before I even get up there.
He sits down in the chair that Jagger just vacated. "I've come to realize just how great at being the boss you are."
I raise my brow, that's some admission. One I never thought he'd make.
"You're great at masking things Hudson, you had me fooled for years. I honestly believed that you were fine with the way things were between your mom and me."
I roll my eyes, fucking hell I didn't realize he was a moron. "You were the boss, respect is everything and while I was a soldier,
