Rico Bodasto Response

*sitting in my Bergen Hunt and Fish Club headquarters office, typing my response to Rico Bodasto's email*

Dear Diego,
I've played nice so far. I've spoken with both Tara and Richard Costanzio, making them a decent offer to purchase Tara's Hotel and Casino....... which they are ignoring..... If I don't receive a positive answer within the next 30 days........ I might have to do something drastic..... if you know what I mean....... Fires happen..... Consider this a Russian offer that you better not refuse.....

Regards
Rico Bodasto

Dear Rico,
I'm thinking over your offer of ten million dollars. You'll receive my answer shortly

You'll get an answer, Rico, one you will never forget

*picking up the short criptic phone message, that must have been from Vito saying o read the Atlantic City newspapers*

Looks like Vito succeeded.... and I'll owe him another ten grand.

Last night at the Hunt Club while I was chatting with Lindsay,we saw the Channel 2 news where Bridget Martin announced breaking news. It seems that Rico Bodasto, the owner of the Golden Nugget Casino in Atlantic City has died of a sudden heart attack. I couldn't get the smile off my face and Lindsay actually laughed at me.

While we were talking, I noticed Vito Colangello entering the Hunt Club on the security system monitor. Gino buzzed me saying Vito was there to see me. I asked Lindsay to wait for me downstairs and told Gino to send Vito up.

I waited at the door while Lindsay took the elevator down. A few minutes later, Vito came up and joined me in my office. I gave him the second payment for eliiminating Rico, another ten grand, and also said I'd make a gift of one of our Big Apple Escorts as a reward.

Vito just smiled, saying Gino was already handling that. I'm sure he had a nice evening with Fanny Janssen, a sexy brunette that sure knows how to please a man.

I went back downstairs with Vito and was surprised to learn that Lindsay had met Vito at the Four Seasons Club last week. The glances and smiles they exchanged told me volumes. Since I was headed for Lindsay's Manhattan Plaza suite, we took Vito with us and dropped him off at the Lexington.
