Putting the Band Back Together
Chapter 9
The phone rang again. This time, the number wasn't blocked. This time Reddington was too fast for her. He snatched the phone from her to answer himself. He put it on speaker phone.
Liz used the phone Reddington had to call Aram. “Aram, I need you to triangulate a location for the number calling my phone NOW. Alert the team and call me back as soon as you have a location.”
“I'm sorry, Raymond, but it had to be done.”
“Why Dembe?”
“I told Elizabeth - it all goes back to Kate. I should have done something to stop you. To make you see reason. I didn't and now this is how I must atone.”
“By killing me?”
“Yes.”
“If you were the one that poisoned me, why did you take me to get help?”
“I didn't expect it to be like that. For you to be in so much pain.”
“Then why not just shoot me - put me out of my misery?”
Dembe didn't have an answer for that.
“You are my brother, Raymond. I loved you - I still do, but someone has to put an end to you. Raymond, I am coming for you.”
Please do.” Reddington responded. “In fact, let me give you the address.”
There was a click as Dembe again hung up the phone.
