Chapter 104

Twenty Five years in prison

Frowning Bryan rubbed his temple with his index and middle finger, and then let out in anger at Joey‘s remarks, “Get out.”

A look of disbelief fell over Joey, who started to laugh hysterically at the request.

“Out?? What the hell is wrong with you?… You are seriously choosing that… over me!” Joey shouted, pointing at him accusingly. “This is bullshit man!!! I trusted you!!”

“Fuck off, Joey!!” Bryan screamed back at him.

“That will not be necessary.” Elijah casually said, making everyone turn to look at him, stunned by his comment

Calmly, Elijah walked past the two, sat down on the black leather couch, and crossed his legs over the other, looking Joey directly in the eyes and adding, “You are desperate for money, ain‘t you?… The ego of one can be very blinding. So you can either sit and let‘s talk or walk out. Your choice.”

A look of reluctance covered Joey‘s face as he clenched his jaw shut tight, and then he scoffed, mumbling, ‘What can you offer me?”

“Nah, it doesn‘t work that way… Try the other way around.” Elijah said calmly, staring at him with a blank look

“What can I offer you?!”

“Good. You are getting the hang of it.”

As a sense of arrogance and pride took hold of Joey‘s face, he puffed his chest and said, “Delphi Oil Co. is one of the top three companies in the state, and our products sell well and fast. And our company also has some pretty damn decent sales internationally…”

“Okay, so if you are that successful, then why are you so desperate for my money?” Elijah asked plainly, folding his arms over his chest.

A scoff escaped Joey‘s lips as he raised an eyebrow at Elijah and mumbled beneath his breath, “What money…”
