Earlier that day
There was a knock on the door to Mars investigation and Matty didn't even look up. "Mr Mars is busy!" Matty said. "Not here to see him, I am here to see Ms Mars, she here?" Matty now looked up and raised her eyebrows, she find herself looking at a man she knew was not here for a case of a cheating spouse. "So it was you following me!" Veronica asked as she came out from the kitchen with a cup of coffee. "How have you been Hector?" She asked. "Busy, you got a minute?" He asked and she nodded. "First of all, sending him a letter was not the best idea, it was better than nothing, but you could at least have told him to his face!" Hector said. "Who? What?" Matty said. "Matty, I think you should go and buy some coffee, we are almost out!" Matty looked a bit offended, but she actually got up and left.
"Yes, I know. You may not believe me, but I know." "So you should get your ass over there and talk to him, because I need him back incharge! Without him I have way too much shit deal with!" Hector said and Veronica didn't get a chance to answer because Hector was actually to busy. "The shop got shot at yesterday, fucking Fitzpatrick we think! Then there is a woman who rented a small ass office space next to the shop, I wanna know why she is there, don't trust her! I also assume there will be no charge attached to this little favour since we kinda save your ass!" "First of all, you need to breath!" She said. "I don't have time, and I am not Weevil, I don't get off on having a flirty banter with you!" Veronica nodded. "Got the address for the space?" She said and he mumbled it out. "Is that an office, it looks more like a worn down drugden!" She said as a picture popped up. "And it used to be, and that I didn't mind! Here's my number, just call when you got something! Or, come by!" He said and then he went up and was about to go. "What does Weevil think about all this?" She asked and that was a question Hector was not in the mood to discuss. "What does he think? I have no fucking idea! But from his reaction, he doesn't care! Now, I got shit to do!" Hector said and left the office, Veronica could hear him starting his bike, and as soon as she did Matty came back. She had no coffee, so she had probably been outside, trying hard to listen.
"Um, I am guessing he is in the PCH, and who did you piss of?" Matty asked. "He is and I actually really screwed something up, so that yelling I had coming!" She said. "Are you admitting to a mistake?" Matty asked. "I guess, don't get use to it!...Oh…" Veronica then said. "What?" Matty asked, but Veronica was not gonna answer, she was deep in her reading.
