Chapter Seven
"So what your telling me. Michael Smith is back again involved with another conspiracy. Only this time it involves deputy mayor Thomas Randall?" He says with a aloofness in his voice. "But why you, Kate as the go between with the exchange of information between you, him and Inspector Victoria Gates?"
"That's my question as why, Rick. And believe me. I don't like to be put into this position. But if we're going to find you just what exactly is going on. It just reminds me too much of what Susan and Seth had gone through, but only much bigger on the government level."
Castle had gone behind the kitchen counter. To see if she was hungry after being silent again. "Actually I am hungry. I don't care what you make, as long it's edible."
"You wound me, Kate. But I will whip up something to your likely." He says with a wry smile for his wife.
"And besides. I am waiting for another call from Smith for the next location for tomorrow. Since he had another one of those secret meetings from a source. I assume works in the deputy mayor's office."
"No doubt. Knowing Michael Smith and the way he operates from over the years." Castle replied having started heading for the frig to take out the needed items to make a Chef salad with Chicken, cheese and assorted other items to spark up his wife's pallet.
It was at this particular moment. When Beckett's cell phone had gone off having left it on the kitchen counter. She jumped with her fray nerves hating to be involved as the go between.
She goes to pick up the cell phone. She answers. And before she could say a word. He tells her to meet him once again at the usual under ground parking garage at three p.m. in the afternoon, and don't be late. He said quietly before ending the call quickly to go about what ever business had going on for that particular moment.
When she looked up at her husband from behind the kitchen counter. She had one of those strange looks. She was mostly worried.
"That was Smith again. I am to meet at the usual spot of the under ground garage in the afternoon. I will need to call Inspector Gates, and advise her of this meeting."
"Would you like me to come with you. Just in case there is an problem with the meet?" He asked softly.
"No Rick. Your only spook him. And we can't afford to screw up the investigation at this point. It's a sensitive subject for when it comes to the mayor's office and it's personnel."
"Very well then Kate, I will keep my nose out of it for now. However. I am telling you now. If the situation warrant's that I have to intervene into this matter. I will. Understand?"
"Completely. Rick. Now come on make that food, you were supposed to be whipping up for me." She said with a gleaming smile.
The exchanged of emotions between the both of them were astonishing. Having gone through so much together the last eight plus years.
