Love, Money, and Lies (A Series of Secrets 2) Chapter 11
Instead of being at Jimbo’s Steakhouse BBQ for a few hours, they stayed until eight o’clock in the evening. The time had gotten away from Margo because she ended up having a better time than she thought. It was great to watch Bruce play with the kids there along with Keisha. Margo and Lana had a nice chat. Then Alec, Margo, and Bruce played softball with a few other guys and teenagers. Bruce walked Margo to her door. She unlocked it and turned around to face him. “Thank you for taking me to the barbeque.” He grinned. “I told you you would have fun.” “I did, and I hadn’t played softball since I was in high school. You were the hero of the team with that homerun that won us the game.” There was a twinkle in his eye. “I’m glad that I helped the team, but the reward of that kiss you gave me was better.” “Oh, I’m sure my kiss and the three other women’s kisses right after was great for you,” she remarked. She had given

Margo was excited about her trip to Monte Carlo. First, she had to catch a flight to Dallas. Then she, Bobbi, and her boss were going to be picked up personally by the filthy rich billionaire who was their host. And if Margo wasn’t excited enough, the billionaire was going to let them fly to France with him on his private jet.Luckily, Anthony had finished one of her post heist personas, and he and Aaron thought it would be a good idea to show at least one legit trip on her fake passport.Margo was checking things off her list when her doorbell rang. She couldn’t imagine who it could be. Her question was quickly answered when she opened the door.“How come you didn’t tell me you were leaving town for the weekend?” Bruce asked.Her mouth dropped open. “It was a last-minute decision, and how did you find out so quickly?”“Last minute, huh? Then how come Lana and Alec knew before I did?” Bruce asked as he walked past her into the house. It looked like he had just gotten off w

It was a few days before Thanksgiving, and Margo was only a few inches away from creating a virus that was stable, spread to all twelve Federal Reserve locations, could extract and transfer funds to various locations at once in a hurry, and could lay dormant until 11:59 p.m. on December thirty-first. She also had three couples who were interested in buying her house. She had placed an ad on a for-sale-by-owner website in September. However, Margo didn’t place a for sale by owner sign in the yard because she didn’t want her neighbors or friends to know. They would have asked too many questions, plus Bruce would find out. She had to disappear without a trace. Margo had also been slowly selling some of her household things on eBay. She had sold both bedroom sets in her guest rooms in October. She kept the doors closed to those rooms so Bruce wasn’t any the wiser when he spent the night. Her mind drifted to Bruce. During the past few months,

Lana Murphy Peterson had outdone herself with the Thanksgiving meal. A twenty-pound turkey, homemade rolls, green beans, cornbread dressing, and corn were on the dining room table. Corey and Lacey Smith, Alec, Keisha, and Bruce had complimented Lana on the meal. Lana had two choices for dessert, a sweet potato pie and a strawberry cake with white, cream cheese frosting. Bruce had pieces of both. He wasn’t shy, especially when it came to food. After they ate, they went to the living room where Alec poured them champagne. He said that he had a big announcement to make. “Does everyone have full glasses?” Lana asked with a smile. “Yeah, girl,” Lacey said. Lacey was a black woman who had auburn hair. Margo had spotted a few years ago that she wore weaves. Not that it was a big deal. Lacey’s hair looked good. Corey put his arm around his wife’s shoulders as he held his champagne glass. He was a white businessman who mad

Four dark-colored Dodge Charger Hellcats were parked under the overpass across from the building. Everyone was already there when Margo got to the factory. Morris was a little surprised to find out that she was in the life, but he nodded his respect and listened as Aaron went over the full plan. He had also clued Morris in on how to communicate over the burners. At one-fifteen a.m., Bobbi, Aaron, Morris, and Anthony deployed to the Hellcats. Margo already had her computer up and ready to go. Anthony and Morris, along with two guys they had met on the street, had boosted the cars from a Dodge dealership earlier that evening. It was easy, and they got away clean because it was closed for the holiday. By the time the dealership opened tomorrow and discovered them missing, the cars would be destroyed. They were small vehicles, but they were fast enough to escape the cops just in case something went wrong. They were all linked on a conference call setup

Bruce woke up to running water, a ringing phone, and a headache the size of a mountain. He groggily looked over at the clock. It was six a.m. Margo was in the shower. Bruce snatched the annoying ringing contraption and answered it. “Yeah,” he answered hoarsely. “Sorry to rustle you awake from one of your ladies’ beds, Styles, but we need you, Peterson, Soros, and Calcutta to report to SunBeam Savings and Loan as soon as possible,” Blanchette said. William Blanchette was supervisory special agent and his boss. “Why?” he asked huskily as he placed his hand on his throbbing head. The water in the bathroom stopped. “SunBeam was robbed last night. They drilled right into the vault,” Blanchette said. He opened his eyes more. “You’re shitting me?” “I wish. Damn crooks can’t even take the holidays off,” Blanchette said with resentment. “I had promised my daughters that I would spend the day with t

Bruce and Alec drove to the Dodge dealership at nine-fifteen. They walked through the doors. “Well, well, Bruce Styles,” Carmen drooled out. “Long time, no see.” Alec looked at him. “Hi, Carmen. How’ve you been?” “Okay, until today. My father is flipping out. We got robbed yesterday. He just got off the phone with the police.” “That’s why we’re here, ma’am,” Alec said. He had no idea who Carmen was. Bruce had met Carmen a few years back when he went looking for a new vehicle. He didn’t like anything in the lot but Carmen. They had gone out a few times. At one point, Carmen was on Bruce’s top-ten list. “What? This is official business?” she asked. “That’s fast,” Lance Davidson said as he walked out of the office. “I just got off the phone with the cops.” “We’re with the FBI, sir,” Alec said and flashed his identification. “FBI? What in the world are you g

It was December fourteenth, and Margo had done it. She had created a virus that could do everything they needed it to do, and it would lay dormant until December thirty-first. Plus, she had sold her house. The new owners had responded to the discrete ad she had placed in the paper last month. They wanted to move in after the New Year, and the best thing was they could pay cash. No fuss with a bank about a loan. Margo had given away some of her clothes to charity. She had to travel light after the Federal Reserve hit. Margo got off the elevator in Bruce’s apartment building. The poor thing had been working overtime for weeks, trying to figure out who robbed SunBeam Savings and Loan. He and Alec were also working on two other cases. Bruce couldn’t tell her too much about them because they were classified. But from what she gathered, the FBI was still stumped concerning the bank robbery. Guilt had pained her concerning the bank heist. Normally, she did
