Elijah's face changed colors the moment he laid eyes on those photos.

"Mr. Ulbricht, we're partners," Isaac's patience had evaporated. "I've told you before, we're equals, not in a hierarchy."

Elijah had crossed a line by following him and exposing those photos to the Lynette family, breaking the principle of their partnership. Feeling cornered, Elijah admitted guilt. "I handled this poorly. It won't happen again."

"It better not."

But Elijah had once saved his life, prompting Isaac to show restraint.

As Elijah left, he kicked his henchman before getting into the car. "Who told you to leak those photos?"

He had people follow Isaac, but it wasn't to deliver photos to the Lynette family!

The henchman took the kick without a peep, "I thought you wanted to stir trouble between them—"

"Isaac is still useful. What good does it do us to antagonize him?" Elijah said, closing his eyes in the car. "Don't pull a stunt like this again." "Understood."
