In a moment it was done. The whole thing went off without a hitch. It didn’t happen that way often, but it was always a good thing when it did. Holding the power as he was, Jared heard their conversation. These two had a history. At least Nox had known his father. This was more than just protection for Rachel. It had been personal for Nox too.
Jared didn’t hesitate to light the corpse on fire. It was a better disposal than Pirozzi had deserved and the only reason he got it was to prevent questions later. Nox had said he couldn’t do it, and even if his gaze showed he heard it, he said nothing. It wasn’t his business, and he got the feeling everyone asked him about it. If he wanted to talk about it - Jared would listen. Jared reached out his had toward Nox. ”Thanks - for helping her. owe you a beer and a steak dinner at least.” it was said with a grin that showed he knew Nox would probably refuse it.
Jared pulled out his wallet and sent Emily a message. He’s taken care of. We’re on our way. Safe and sound. he also let Matt know the lockdown could be lifted.
”Alright - let’s get the hell out of here.”
