The more Gregg thought about it, the angrier he got. His family had been in business with the Martinez family for years, and this was the first time Louis had ever been so rude to him. Even Henry had always been polite to Gregg, but now Louis, a younger member of the family, was accusing him of things.
Feeling frustrated, Gregg grabbed his phone and called Bella, asking, "Do you know anything about someone named Dan?"
Bella panicked for a second. After a few moments, she tried to sound calm and pretended not to understand. "What are you talking about? "
Annoyed, Gregg said, "Stop messing with me!"
"I'm not," Bella said, acting innocent.
Getting straight to the point, Gregg said, "Maddie's hand is hurt, her face is bruised, and now she's in jail. All these things happened one after another, all because of that Alicia. I know you want to help Maddie, but can't you be a bit smarter about it? Don't make it so obvious!"
