Your future might depend on it
Liam frowned. He was really prepared to leave because now the risks far outweighed the rewards but this last move by the mysterious prisoner was a checkmate. He could no longer simply ignore what she said. Now she also held some power in her hands.
"What do you mean by deteriorating? I feel just fine." Liam shrugged, trying to play dumb. He wanted to get as much information as possible from this strange person, but how could it be so easy to trick someone like her?
The woman simply chuckled and did not entertain him with any further information. Liam waited for a few seconds but this was clearly a moot point. "Fine. I will come in and get it but you have to give me more information about this treasure first," he cautiously said.
"Heh. You don't trust my word. Then how could you trust anything I say?" The woman cackled in a shrill voice, mocking Liam. Now that she had all the power in the conversation she did not hold back.
