Chapter Seven Stringing Me Along
She is very anxious for the moment. Trying to think of the proper words for her husband. She didn't know how to proceed.
She decided to sit at the kitchen counter waiting for him to come back.
Coming back out of the nursery. He could sense her anxiety for the moment. Something must of happened at the precinct in order for her to be acting this way.
No matter she will tell him. When she's actually ready. But as it turns out after seeing him. She starts to explain the entire situation. As Castle stands on the side listening to her entirely.
She sees Castle's facial expression across the way. Not knowing what to make of it for the moment. While taking a deep breath before going on with the rest of what Gates had said.
After giving her say to him. He would be thinking of of different options on the general of the story. He was in need to know the whole picture. Meaning checking into the back ground of his life, police activity. The works! Including any illegal activity on his part. Including enemies he might of made during the past ten years and recently.
Anything out of the ordinary. He would check with his under-ground sources. Mostly with the mob ties. Even though its been awhile. Even though he just might speak with his friend about any loan shark looking to get even with a few of his clients.
Right away he called Dino Scarpella. Using the number that was given to him on the business card.
She wasn't liking this one bit. Castle having to be calling Dino of all things. Hopefully this time around. Things will turn out for the better.
Secrets was the key point for the matter right now. And keeping it away from Internal affairs.
When Dino picked up the phone from his office. Going over the books with his daughter. Their relationship between each other had grew stronger with the help of Richard Castle.
Picking up the phone and seeing Castle's telephone number come up on the caller I.D. Something must be up in order for his friend to be calling at this time of the night.
Dino told his daughter to please leave the office. In order to speak with Castle in privacy. She agreed. While walking out into the hallway to meet up with her husband.
After a ten minute chat. Richard Castle had a better understanding of what's been going on. Plus the fact. Dino will be coming over to his loft with-in the next 20 minutes. Since he doesn't trust a number of his organizational people to give the final piece of the information.
But for now. Kate Beckett had checked on Reece for the final time. Along with any plans to have him watched in case she needs to go out into the field to investigate further.
Castle would be down stairs waiting for his friend to arrive. Even though for only a few minutes. He would be driving himself this time around.
When Castle saw the black SUV pull up to the curve. Dino pulled down the window to give him the final piece of the puzzle.
"You will find him there at this address. Not that he will tell you the truth. Even though some of his own people had betrayed him inside of the prison, for where Rollins was being held on the charges."
"So it was all a fraud in order to get Rollins to come up with the rest of his funds?"
"For the most part. Yes Castle. Good luck with getting Rollins cleared and his history with Inspector Victoria Gates." He says before handing him photos taken ten years prior. "These are the only known copies. I suggest you burn them Castle in order to keep Gates name out of the investigation for good. The only mistake of her life. She'd to live with until now."
"Does her husband know of this affair?" He asked in quiet.
"No. But I have a feeling. Inspector Victoria Iron Gates just might depending on the outcome of this case. Good luck. My friend. We are now even with your debt to me."
"Thanks." Shaking his hand before he places the window back up on his vehicle to head back to the night club.
