Mrs. Noble was very satisfied with the service today and even gave Henry a $2 tip, which Henry accepted with a smile and thanked her.
After leaving, Henry and his team rented a house near where the Noble's telephone lines passed. Not knowing when the task would end, having a house for monitoring was more stable and less likely to be discovered.
At Edward Noble's candy company, Henry and his team did the same thing, installing wiretaps on the phones.
The wiretaps were small, powered by the phone, and could clearly hear conversations in the room even without picking up the phone.
Eavesdropping and monitoring to obtain useful business information, Henry and his team's actions were entirely normal business tactics.
Everything was ready.
Andy called Edward Noble, stating that he represented his employer and wanted to buy ABC broadcasting company. Edward Noble was not surprised and arranged to meet at the candy company's office.
