So I suppose I’m the one responsible for turning her into the mastermind of The Adjusters. Her work as the head of that team demanded exacting focus, from planning their elaborate stings to keeping her entire crew in motion. Elle had become quite the professional.
And now I had the mastermind of The Adjusters coming down to Los Angeles to help me out. This could be very helpful. I’d be happy to run my plans by her to see if I’d missed anything. In the meantime, I had something important that she could help me with: find those fingerprinted drugs. I intended to get them back, one way or another. Bea did not get to use those drugs against me for the rest of my life.
“Say, would you happen to know where Bea’s storage locker is? I’d like to make a withdrawal.” Hale had hacked into a number of Bea’s accounts, but he hadn’t found any payments to a storage locker yet. It wouldn’t hurt to try other options.
Elle was no help. “Beats me. She never trusted anyone with that information. But if you do find it, let me know and I’ll help you clean it out.” My sister may have stayed in touch with the nefarious F.M., but I was glad to see she had no loyalty to her.
“You’ve got a deal. And thanks for coming down. I may just need your help.”
“You definitely need my help.”
