Love in the Limelight novel Chapter 535

Hank cast a disdainful glance at Chad's blustering entrance, "Cool it, man. Take a seat. The Boss hasn't even spoken yet. Can you stop flailing around like a damn fool?"

"Come on, Hank, you're missing the point here. Look at the crap that joker's spitting. Does that sound like something a decent person would say?" Chad tried to retort, but Hank grabbed him before he could continue.

Astrid rolled her eyes at Chad, "Can we cut the chatter and actually get something done for once?"

At Astrid's words, Hank and Chad knew it was game time.

It had been ages since they'd been in the field doing the Boss' dirty work, and the adrenaline was kicking in hard.

Astrid glanced at Chad and drawled, "Fetch my gear from the company's safe room. I'm gonna need it."

"No way, Boss, are you stepping in?" Chad was practically bouncing with excitement. "Seriously, Boss, for a guy like Jay? You really need to get involved personally?"

Astrid explained, "If Jay's managed to stay off Elio's hit list this long, it means he's either got something up his sleeve or someone's got his back."

"Do you think a slick operator like him is just gonna wire the cash because we asked nicely in an email?"

"Would you bet he's gonna want a meet-up?"

No sooner had she finished her prediction than the ping of an email alert sounded.
