Greene placed his hand in front of Adam. It was clear that he wanted to
slow things down a bit before his client ended up saying something he would
regret. "Let us not play any games folks. It is clear that you know Mr.
Leaver was there and was holding Mr. Shevab. There is no way for us around
that. What will you offer if he pleads guilty?" It was blunt, forward, and
surprising.
Aravis raised an eyebrow. This was not an approach she was used to. She
did have to admit that what he said was true. "Mr. Greene, I think you
misunderstand the situation. We have your client in prison with no
challenges. I don't think that there is anything that he could do to have
that changed. We are hear because we want to know everything he knows about
the Brotherhood." If Greene wanted to play honest and blunt, she would do
the same.
Greene visibly snared in response. "What makes you so sure that this
situation or my client have any ties to that organization?"
She had him. "Are you suggesting your client decided to hold the Chief
Engineer hostage all on his own?" Holt's eyes sparkled with success.
Greene's eyes tightened. Lt. Holt was a good adversary. "I am not sure
what difference it would make if he did this on his own or at the request of
this Brotherhood."
Leaver could not believe what he was hearing. His lawyer had pretty much
given up defending him from what he could see. How could his father have
hired this guy to get him out of trouble?
"Mr. Greene, we are not hear to make deals. Your client has a choice. He
can either talk to us or not. What would the two of you prefer?" Geb was
not one of those people who enjoyed playing these
types of games.
Valtris was impressed. She had not had any time to get to know Geb Breknor,
but it was clear that he was going to be a good officer. He was right of
the Academy, but he was not letting Greene get to him. She thought he was
going to be an asset to the team.
