Lawrence hid a triumphant smirk as Jacques turned away. Within moments she had a contract pulled on her Wallet and strode toward Zanders. "Good news. Get this ready and send it to Danjou's people."
An Exclusive was the kind of paperwork Lawrence kept at the ready.
She was digging an ear-piece out of her pocket when Wilson, arms crossed, tapped her on the arm, ready to curse her out, but Laurie cut him off. "Better luck next time, Wilson. Here's a piece of advice, when you want an exclusive, don't sit there and bat your eyelashes hoping. Have the balls to ask."
Ear piece secured, she pat him encouragingly on the arm, but her smirk did little to soften the gloating.
Sierra Leoneon soldiers piled out of the trucks, and Lawrence busied herself shooting video until an officer in charge approached Jacques. Their conversation was private, but that was why she was wearing the ear piece. A swipe of the finger on the Wallet control, and the audio was turned up. She listened carefully.
The orders spelled bad news for the locals. Lawrence knew what would happen as soon as they were left alone. Zanders leaned in and whispered an update with the contract. It was all ready on both their sides, Jacques signature was the last to be collected. "Great work Zanders,"
Lawrence said. "Now go run and find Miss Gray. Find out what the Red Cross's statement is about this order. They have to obey domestic laws. Whether or not Natalie Northbrook agrees, we'll find out."
Laurie watched him hurry off in the direction the girl and her entourage went.
In the meantime, she started filming. That she had been noticed by Wallace's soldiers did not escape her attention. Which meant it was a good time to check tha her feed was uploading and that the rest of her Wallet was identity-secured before resuming; it wouldn't be the first time her stuff was confiscated. Hopefully Jacques kept her out of jail if things went south.
