Leander walked out of his office with Steve's gun. He had managed to stop Steve at the last moment. After assuring Steve that he will protect his family, Steve opened up about some things.
He said only a little. But that is enough.
Steve said that there are rumors that the don killed his cousin Russo because he disagreed with what happened in Abenney that year. But he made sure to let Leander know that they are only rumors and that he never believed that.
Steve also added that after Russo's death, the don was very gracious to their family and even gave a tidy sum of money to Russo's daughter. That money helped them with cancer treatment. Otherwise, they might have sunk into debt.
Maybe Steve is too scared and too loyal to say much. But Leander knew it is not a simple rumor if it survived this long. He remembered attending Russo's funeral and his grandfather talked about how much of a loyal man he was.
There should be something more.
