This was the kind of opportunity she could only dream of.

"Okay, I agree to your terms. Now, give me the antidote," she stated.

The man nodded.

But Quincy couldn't help but chuckle.

"Look here, buddy, you're not a kid anymore, right? I mean, even if I hand over the antidote, there's no way I'm doing it for free! After all, I spent ages working on this thing..." Right now, she was in dire need of cash.

Paying off her classmates required money, and if she wanted to get on the good side of Everett's friends and maintain those relationships, she'd need even more cash! Plus, she had already asked her dad for money so many times that he was barely willing to support her anymore. If she asked again, he might cut her off completely.

At this point, Quincy needed to secure herself a safety net.

The man snorted with laughter, not too surprised by her opening bid.

"Alright, spit it out. How much do you want?"

"Ten million."

"Why don't you just hold up a bank?"

Quincy patted his shoulder, "Come on, man, your words, not mine. You said you're into Dorothy, want to be with her. I'd say ten million for a shot at Dorothy is a steal, wouldn't you? Or is this all just an excuse, and you've got other plans?"
