Into the Abyss--Chapter 8

... to Raleigh. I had to call Rocco and see what he had been able to find. "Hello, Frank. I'm guessing you have been served already." "That's right, Rocco. The server caught me right after I returned from work. Susan was in her glory when it happened, so I told her to gather her things and get the hell out of my place. She's gone now. Rocco, do you have anything for me?" "Frank, I've got a ton of stuff for you. Are you sure you want to hear it?" "Everything, Rocco. Don't hold anything back from me, because it couldn't possibly get any worse." "Okay Boss, you've got it. First of all, it seems that Susan has been having an affair with Mr. Martin Woolf. You ever hear of him?" "Yes, I have. Who in Raleigh hasn't heard of him? Isn't he a big-time attorney back there?" "He sure is, Frank. He's a big-time divorce attorney, handles the A-list clients in the Southeastern United States. Frank, they've been an item, albeit on the back burner, for over seven years. He's not representing her, by the way. He arranged for a friend of his to take her case. He can't afford the publicity if it got out about them." "Seven years? Jesus, she was fucking both of us for a year before she cut me off." "Well, every time your wife was away from the house for more than a few hours she has been with Martin Woolf.

By my count they have had, on average, six of these little romantic weekends every year." "Jesus, Rocco. I've been a fool." "Don't beat yourself up about it, Frank. She covered her tracks pretty well, even going so far as to include one of her best friends in the lie. If you ever asked, this woman was prepared to lie to keep the truth from you. She's good, Frank, but not good enough to keep it from me. You know that I've got friends and informants everywhere, including South Beach and the Bay Area." "What do you mean, Rocco? Have you been checking up on things out here?" "No, Frank, but it seems that during her first visit out there she hired a local guy to find out about you and your girlfriend. A real shady character, from what I can gather. This guy found out that you were seeing that Lucy gal. And he knows about the three-way arrangement as well." "Rocco, are you telling me that he found out about Megan?" How was he able to do that?" "Frank, I can't prove anything, but I think he may have paid her for information. She needs the money and I think he's preying on that to gain information about your relationship.. Susan's plan was to catch you in an unsavory situation and use it to up the ante on her settlement demands. She has no idea that I was able to learn all of this, though. I'm forwarding ...
