When Emily heard the question, she took a deep breath. She was not sure what the Smith offered to him; she knew it was a risk to threaten him. "win the case; you have the needed evidence," Emily said.
"would you delete the thing in your hand after that?" Barrister Douglas asked.
"No, you would continue to work with Steam according to your contract; there are still three years before it ends. As long as you don't betray the company, your secret is safe," Emily replied. She wanted to keep him because he was good at his job.
Now that she had his weakness, he would not dare betray her again. Some people were loyal; others could only be reliable because of benefits and losses.
Mr Douglas paused, " What if I want to terminate the contract?" he asked. Nobody wanted their weakness held in the hands of others.
