"What else can the organization do with us? Keep you and me around to expose all their secrets?" Rhea chuckled.
Mike asked calmly, “Then why are you desperately trying to find them and walking into a death trap?”
“Of course not. I’m seeking hope because I don't want to die. Now I’m giving you a second chance to cooperate with me by offering you a way out too. Do you understand?” Rhea looked somewhat proud.
It was as though she was his savior, and he should be grateful to her.
Mike did not mince his words and asked directly, "Just by relying on Cameron Rollins?"
"Yes, him, among others. I just want the organization to see my potential," Rhea paused and continued, "Of course, everyone has shortcomings. I don't have your wealth and worldwide connections or your network. So there are some things only you can do."
Mike said deeply, “Once I find the organization’s whereabouts and connect you to it, you’ll kick me aside like garbage.”
Rhea chuckled softly. "Of course not! I told you. Everyone has shortcomings, and you complement mine. So you are my suitable long-term partner in this collaboration, not garbage."
Mike analyzed her words calmly, not swayed by her words. “The organization’s resources are probably more than mine! Besides, even if you’re willing, how can you ensure the organization will keep me?”
Rhea shook her head and replied, “Since I have bargaining chips, I have my methods, too. Do you know how not to be abandoned or be a discarded pawn in the long run?”
Mike slowly shook his head as he looked into her eager eyes.
