His soul-Chapter 299: Businessman VS Mafia

After a brief introduction Massimo finally knew the names of his guests this afternoon, with great composure Massimo managed to answer question after question directed at him. Flying hours and a lot of experience do not betray Massimo. It was the young policemen in front of Massimo who looked nervous when Massimo had started to speak.

"I just came back from England with my wife the day after tomorrow, after that we spent the night at the Hospital Clinic de Barcelona because my wife had digestive problems. The density of our bed activities while in London seemed to be the main problem, hmmm I think I have to be more understanding in the future, "said Massimo at length with a pretended innocent face answered Hugo’s question the senior police officer who still firmly refused to drink the alcohol that Massimo had prepared.

The faces of the twelve men in front of Massimo immediately brightened, surprise evident on their faces.

"Y-you’re married, sir?" asked one of the short private detectives sitting closest to Massimo spontaneously.

Massimo raised his left hand, proudly showing his wedding ring to Gina to all his guests. "Yes, I am."

"Didn’t you say that you were a man who wanted to live freely without the bonds of marriage, sir?"

"Yeah, you’re right. It’s just that all those principles just disappeared when a beautiful girl who was like a Siberian tiger came into my life, it seems that what people say out there about the influence of women on the world is very true. Because after my wife’s presence it felt like my world became more colorful."

Silence.

There was no response from the twelve officers who wanted to interrogate Massimo, now they feel awkward because they have been exploring the private life of Massimo who is enjoying his happy times as a husband.

"And this is my wife," said Massimo again, holding out his wedding photo with Gina which he had just taken out of his wallet. Keep photos in your wallet? Really, Massimo.

A policeman named Isak grabbed the photo Massimo had just pulled out of his wallet, and as soon as it was in his hands all the other cops approached him to look at the wife of a Massimo del Cano. But how surprised they were when they saw the photo that Massimo gave because the photo on Gina’s face had already been censored. Just looking from the neck down would certainly not be recognized.

"How, my wife is beautiful isn’t she?" asked Massimo innocently with an innocent face.

"Beautiful, your wife is beautiful sir. In this photo you also look handsome," answered Isak awkwardly, forcing himself not to laugh at the stupid question Massimo had just said as he returned Massimo’s wedding photo with slightly shaking hands. Afraid.

Massimo excitedly received the photo back, as soon as the small size photo was in his hands again Massimo was seen touching Gina’s face and smiling silently for a few minutes which made all his guests surprised at his strange behavior. Even Hugo, who normally wasn’t interested in other people’s lives, felt that the attitude Massimo had just displayed was not far-fetched. As a man who had been married for more than thirty years, Hugo believed that Massimo del Cano indeed had a soulmate, a girl who was called the Siberian Tiger by Massimo moments ago. Devil like a story in a fairy tale.

"Sorry, I’m talking about my personal life," said Massimo suddenly. "So how, where did our conversation stop?"

"Until you take your wife to the Hospital Clinic de Barcelona," Hugo replied quietly without changing his expression.

"Ah yes," Massimo’s expression immediately changed. "We had to spend the night there until we were finally allowed to go home last night and we woke up this morning at nine in the morning, all the bad news that happened at RedFox just reached my ears an hour ago."

"So you really didn’t know this was happening, sir?"

Massimo shook his head. "If you want you can see the list of patients’ names at the Hospital Clinic de Barcelona or if you are not satisfied you can also look at my travel notes from England."

"No sir, we don’t have to go that far," Hugo replied flatly.

"Sir..."

The words of the young policeman who had just spoken stopped immediately when Hugo looked at him, not long after that Hugo also invited his men to immediately resume their work because they felt that the information they wanted was sufficient.

When everyone was walking out of the room Hugo suddenly stopped in his tracks, looking at Massimo who was beside him.

"Have you had any problems with people lately, sir?" Hugo asked suddenly.

Massimo chuckled. "I’m too busy with my wife, sir. So there’s no problem with other people, but I don’t know if anyone wants to attack me."

"Life as a mafia is certainly not easy, is it?" quipped Hugo sarcastically.

Massimo chuckled at the words of the senior police officer who was the same height as him, or maybe a few inches shorter than Massimo considering how thick the soles of the senior police’s shoes were.

"For me being a mafia is not a job but a legacy that I have to preserve, after all I’m not really a mafia. I’m a businessman, sir."

Hugo pursed his lips. "Doing business by setting up brothels, gambling and so on will only be carried out by the mafia."

"But wait, all my business is legal. There is an official letter that I submitted to the local government. I am also obedient in paying taxes for this country. Otherwise, how could King Rafael often invite me to come to the palace," said Massimo slowly, deliberately using King Rafael’s name to use as a shield.

Hugo’s expression changed as Massimo had expected when he decided to bring up King Rafel’s name in his conversation with the senior police officer who had a clean image.

"King Rafael," said Hugo briefly meaningfully. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

Massimo chuckled amusedly, unable to hold it in slowly he wrapped his arms around Hugo’s shoulders and patted him gently. "Don’t worry, sir. I’m really clean this time, to be honest I’m also shocked and upset that there’s been a murder at my place of business. Dealing with those news eaters again makes me sick."

"Is this the reason you hide your wife’s identity, sir?" Hugo asked, suddenly changing the subject.

"Could be, my world is too dark and I don’t want my wife to suffer the consequences. Because of that my marriage is very private, I hope you can keep this a secret and convince your subordinates not to leak it everywhere because to be honest I’m not ready if I have to lose fans hahaha ..."

Massimo’s ridiculous answer made Hugo silent for a while, although MassimO laughed but Hugo knew that the words Massimo said were part of his true heart.

"I will help you find the mastermind behind this incident, Mr del Cano," said Hugo suddenly.
