“I received an interesting offer today before I got here.” Coco began. “Does the name Kalili Sam ring a bell?”
“Kalili Sam?” Olivia shook her head. “I’m not sure who that is.”
“He’s the dude that jacked up the price of that life-saving device. Anyway, some girl asked me to hack into his computers to see if he was responsible for her father’s murder.”
“Oh wow,” Olivia sat back on her heels, “that’s some heavy stuff, Coco.”
“Yeah, I know. She offered to pay me a ridiculous amount of money to find out.”
“How much are we talking?”
“A hundred thousand starting.” Coco revealed to Olivia’s shocked expression. “Yeah, that was my face, too.”
“So, are you going to do it?”
“I told her I would help with as much as I could but I couldn’t guarantee anything.” Coco calmly replied. “If what she’s saying is true, though, I doubt this Sam dude is the only one.”
“And then what?” Olivia asked.
“Follow the paper trail and see where it leads,” Coco shrugged, “and if it leads to bigger fish, then I’m going fishing.”
