"You know I one day had the dream of living a quiet life, of having a vast estate, but to step away underrated as it is now. No. gabe. Callaway ruled over me like we had nothing to do with him, thinking I was just a subordinate he could suppress, because he had a woman with him and got a position because of his family. I who work in the field is only considered complementary because I have no back-up, ... Losing like that doesn't taste good." I told you my reason clearly. I'm not gonna back off and let him win over me.
"You're vengeful for him." Nathan raised his eyebrows at me.
"I'm vengeful? Yes, maybe, but I feel more unfairly treated, unfairly defeated. I feel used only as a tool. If I had the chance to make him bow to me, then I would have taken it without hesitation. I will not run from my fight. That's my answer...."
Nathan weighed my answer.
"You're really determined?"
"Yes, yeah,..." He was silent for a moment when he heard my answer. Not sure what he'd do, help me or reject me.
"Do I need to come to Japan with you to make you help me?" Nathan looked at me strangely because of what I said. "If you say so. I'll pay you the price you ask without question..." I said it frankly. If he wants payment, I'll be willing. Not all men are the same. They like women adoring them. He walked towards me and now standing near me, I got up from my seat.
"If you come in you'll be used by someone else. It's the same Kate." He slipped his hand into his pants pocket. Tell me the truth I already know.
"Working to get one reward is normal Nathan. What hurts is, you work but just to be looked at one eye like now, you consider him a friend but he threw you away like now. You work to get something in return, I'm willing to pay the price."
"You're willing to pay the price..."
"I didn't go to Japan just to be the head Auditor. That's not my choice..." He looked at me seriously. I held my hand to her waist, looking into her dark eyes. "How did you answer Jonathan, not once did I ask you to help me?"
"What I'm offering is Kate's easy offer. Easily lived. Your life won't be too complicated anymore. The path you chose might result in nights of worry." She tidied my hair, making me feel like she was watching me.
"I don't want to be considered easy. If I chose to live in ease, I wouldn't be in the FBI." I reply to his words with certainty.
"You'll regret it." He knocked on my forehead.
"I don't regret the path I've chosen until now. I'd be sorry if I didn't try to retaliate, I don't like losing and getting out of the ring..." I'm stuck on his nape right now. "Nathan help me...?" He breathed out hearing my request. He stayed quiet for a moment and looked at me.
"Alright, listen to me, since you don't have the capital money, you must have something to offer to destroy Callaway. A secret, a scandal to destroy his image and opportunity. Either you make it or you know it...." Turns out Nathan requires that I have to contribute to the team. My terms are recognized and become their coalition of groups.
"You need to find that woman as soon as possible. You have any other evidence?"
"I remember him saying the woman met his father while he was working in a famous bar in Manhattan. I can find her, I can even remember her bar name..." I smiled broadly, this time luck was on my side.
"Hm... Find him, offer him big money to talk in the tabloids. Sean will help you with that. Your body will allow you to enter our circle and your position will be automatically appointed to the bureau."
"good. I'm gonna find him... Thank you." Thank you." I still wrap my hands around her waist. "Your dinner offer still stands." I smiled at him.
"If you're having dinner with me and look like someone else it's gonna be a little dangerous. If your position is strong enough, you can have dinner with anyone without worry..."
He thought about getting there. Nathan really helped me.
"I think I owe you a lot. You're a really good friend." Now he laughs at my words.
"Friends. You are an unusual girl."
"I told you I never chose the easy way." Now I kiss him to thank him for his help. He returned my kiss. "Thank you Nathan, I may not accept your lover's offer, but I will always be loyal to my friend."
"After tonight you can't be seen with me first. Youunderstand. If you want to meet it must be hidden can not be in LA..."
"I see, maybe we can meet in Japan..."
"Kate baby, you're really good at taking advantage of friendships." Now that she's the one who kissed me, the scent of her body I know is tempting. The sweeping of her lips in my ears made me miss the night we had in Chicago.
"I've only learned from Nathan's experience that he won't fall a second time."
Maybe this is a friend, but I can only reach this level now. I wouldn't dream too high, like I said I didn't have enough money.
