That’s it The driver slowly lowered his weapon, watching Elijah’s eyes, and seeing no trace of fear or anger inside them, he took a step forward toward Elijah and spoke, “I am nowhere related to you or this person that wants you dead. Hell, I don’t give a shit about this whole situation. I am in this for the bag, and if you think you can buy your life back, I am down with your deal.”

“Buy my life back,” Elijah snorted before saying, “Sure, let’s see it that way.” The way Elijah looked unbothered by their threat had them even more confused, and the driver hesitated for a moment before putting his knife back into his belt.“ Alright, okay. We’ll do it your way. Now please, get inside the van.” “Nah, it doesn’t work that way,” Elijah stated bluntly, pausing as a taxi suddenly came to a stop right by them. “Our ride is here.” “He’s getting in a freaking taxi, Lex!” One of the men whispered firmly to the driver.

“I can see that!” Lex exclaimed. “And you think that he has the money to out pay Texan?!” “I can fucking see that we got played, Alan! You don’t need to shove it in my face!”

The fact that they were acting like Elijah wasn’t two feet away from them made Elijah struggle to guess these guys’ Iq and rethink his decision to work with them.

Impatient with Elijah and the others’ delay, the cab driver honks hard making all ten men glare at him.

“What’s your next move?” Elijah asked.

Lex gave him a sideways glance, thinking hard as he glanced at the other guys, noticing the looks that they were giving each other. He then cleared his throat

and spoke again, “So where exactly do you guys stay?” At twelve o’clock, the cab brought Elijah and the others to Silvershore hotel, and then the van made a stop right by it in the parking lot.

“Good.”

Lex hesitated and then he said with a straight face,“ Teddy wants to know how much is our cut on this job?” “He’s at it again with dumb questions?” Texan blurted out with a nervous laugh. “Actually, not of us find it dumb, except you, Texan. So, how much is our cut?” “…Well, you guys know that I have the others to pay, so it’s going to be…
