The woman in black stared at him with contempt. "I feel like you are here to scam me."
"Ms. Blanche, why don't we sit down and talk? It's so cold out here." Sebastian was shivering.
"I'm not cold. If you want to talk, we will talk here." The woman in black could tell that he was freezing, but she did not care.
"Fine!" Sebastian turned around to face his bodyguard and shouted, "Go buy me a down jacket right now!"
The bodyguard immediately ran off.
"What's going on with Natalie? If she isn't feeling well, why would she ask to meet with me?" grumbled the woman in black.
"Ms. Blanche, I'm not trying to fool you. Something has happened to my sister. We are searching for her, but we haven't found her yet. All we found was her phone," Sebastian said. "My sister might be gone, but, all the same, we want to work with you."
"Work with me? Do you even know the nature of the deal that your sister and I have?"
"We don't, but you can tell me. Whatever my sister offered you, we can offer you double," Sebastian said. "We only want Ivy, and if you can help us find her, whatever you want, we will give."
The woman in black narrowed her eyes slyly as she studied Sebastian's face. It looked like she was considering his offer.
"If I remember correctly, you have no say in the Jennings family!" the woman mocked. "Get your father to talk to me, or there will be no deal."
