Jovani wanted to end the call the moment he realized who the person was. Except, they wouldn't let him. Or rather, they said enough to keep his attention just as his finger hovered over the button to end the call.
"Now, don't be so tetchy. I know that we don't exactly have the best past between us but I did call for a specific reason. A few things that I think you will be interested in. The princess's brother woke up, I'm sure you'd like to know that."
Richard made sure to draw the other in carefully. Jovani wouldn't willingly talk to him unless he would benefit from the conversation. Richard bit down on the fork to catch the rest of the mashed potatoes before they could fall back down on the tray as he waited to see if the other would take the bait. The nurse gave him some useful information. All of which he wouldn't be so quickly to divulge to the Vedova Nera boss. At least not without getting something out of it in return.
