Do you accept?
No.
You let the silence linger for almost a minute, and enjoyed watching John squirm in his chair. "... I'll leave it." You said.
John's face dropped. "...What do you want?" He asked, defeated.
"You can't buy me off so easily, John. I won't show your wife. But I'll have a favour to ask of you, when the time comes." You spoke confidently as you took the USB from his hand.
"Do you understand?" You asked. He nodded glumly.
"Good." You flashed a cruel smirk as you turned and left the office. You felt so confident that you went to your desk, grabbed your coat, and gave yourself the rest of the day off. You drove home, missing peak traffic hour.
As you stepped back into your house, you saw Jessica sitting on the lounge watching television. She looked over at you and smiled. She was wearing a loose white dress that fell over her body nicely. You walked up and sat next to her, and wrapped an arm around her shoulders when she cuddled up to your side.
"How did it go?" She asked your curiously, peering up at your face.
"He's in my pocket. I'm not sure what I'll do yet, but he can't say no." You smirked at her.
She smiled back, then spoke in a quiet voice. "I'm happy that I could help."
"Couldn't have done it without your sexy self." You grinned and kissed her head.
"If I were you, I'd think of something quickly. He's not going to wait around for you to blackmail him with this. You need to catch him off guard." She said.
You looked at your wife in mild surprise. Jessica could be pretty cunning at times.
You nodded in agreement. The two of you happily watched the news together in silence. You couldn't help but think of your next steps.
