So, starving her for three days or even offering her a fortune wouldn't make Quincy give away the antidote. Not even if it meant the downfall of the entire family.
Unless she no longer wished to live.
"Saving your family isn't something that falls within our negotiation. I'm under no obligation." He said.
"True, which is why I propose an additional month of Ms. Sanchez's antidote in exchange," Quincy bargained.
Everett paused, "And if I refuse?"
"What can I do? It's not like I can just take it by force. At most... I just won't supply the antidote anymore." There are very few things in this world that could threaten Everett. Quincy had finally found something that could leverage Everett. She wasn't about to let go; she intended to exploit this threat to its fullest. "Mr. Lopez, are you willing to lose Ms. Sanchez?"
"If anything happens to Dorothy, I'll make sure you experience a living hell."
"Saving my family would barely require any effort on your part, Mr. Lopez. The money is trivial to you, and in return, you get an additional month's supply of the antidote. It's a good deal."
Quincy's logic in her words was clear, signaling her confidence in winning.
After all, the all-powerful and high-flying Everett happened to be an infatuated man. If he could bear to lose Dorothy, then what truly could threaten him?
Sure enough, after a few seconds of silence, Everett spoke, "How much?"
"I'll have my father contact you."
As Quincy finished speaking, Everett was ready to hang up. He didn't want to hear that voice for one more second.
