The door clicked shut behind Mervis when he finally got out of the appartment, leaving Tess to look around by herself. She was begninng to thing doing this favour for that spinless jackass wasn't a bad thing. 500k was a lot of money, and it was going to be hers free and clear.
Free and clear once two men were dead.
But that was the fun part.
She found the transparant blouse tossed up onto a shelving using and as she pulled it down she started to laugh.
Tess had forgotten about the camera the apartment's owner though she was too drunk to remember. Well, he was partially right. Probably was going to try to blackmail her or sell it on the holovid. Not that she cared.
But now, lifting the camera from its place she hooked it up to the apartment's vidscreen and played it back. Nothing to shocking or unexpected, but as she sped the playback forward the grin on her face widened when she got to the part where Mervis entered the picture.
Every word recorded, ever image captured, she couldn't help but think of the possibilties. What would happen if someone from Danfe Midis' operations were to get ahold of this information? No, that wouldn't be good. Would cause too many problems for the Family and she would most likely find Meschi or Brahle waiting for her in some dark alley.
But what would the little schmuck's wife think seeing him in such a compramising position with a half naked woman?
Pocketting the vidchip from the camera she slipped the blouse on and grabbed the pile of information from the bed.
Perhaps when all this was said and done, she and Mrs. Mervis Somir would have to have lunch...
