CHAPTER 64 - REBECCA ANDERSON
Nico became silent for a long time. The only sound the other person on the other line could hear was his breathing and the low humming of the air conditioner around him.

Maybe you pass him a message for me?” Marmie shook her head.“I am afraid not. I have not seen the boss for a week. Bruno was the one running the hotel.
