“You know he has another woman, yet you claim not to know who she is? Johnson…” I trailed off.

As expected, Johnson seemed to relax. He sighed in relief and surrendered, “Sure! Chlo, just tell me what you need. I’m all in.”

“I want the concealed financial reports and the recent list of major clients,” I said firmly.
