Chapter 911

Hank could barely contain his excitement as he accepted the friend request from someone with the username "Scalpel." Creepy name, sure, but he'd seen stranger. They were officially connected now.

Jason leaned over and gave Hank a quick rundown. "Don't message him first. Wait until he texts you. You're supposed to be a woman right now-remember, this is about making money. Just focus on playing your part and don't worry about whether or not it's actually Harry. We can't risk you slipping up."

"Relax, Jason. I've been memorizing all those scripts you gave me. Trust me, men know men. I can handle these guys-piece of cake." Hank's confidence was obvious.

He and Jason had worked together on scams like this before. They knew each other's rhythm, and had gotten pretty good at it.

Jason took a sip of his drink, then added, "If he asks you out tonight, don't go. Not yet."

Hank grinned. "Got it-play hard to get."

Jason smirked. “That's right. And see if you can get him to up the price."

Hank fired back with a voice message, using an app that made him sound like a sultry woman: "Oh, honey, I'm not that easy."
