Time. Time was one of those things that made a big difference in this; time enough for the media to forget about it, and move on to drunken celebrity marriages with pandas on bicycles, or whatever else it took to draw their attention. From there, fixing the problem was relatively straightforward; all it took was an expensive lawyer employed by an untraceable corporation to put the right amount of pressure on the right parts of the criminal justice system, shake lightly, and then watch as a would-be murderer just kind of fell out. It all worked much better when the would-be murderer was off the front pages.
Bella wondered just how much explaining Seth would need for that.
Still, Seth was more useful outside than in, which was why Bella was waiting for him to accept her... invitation. Assuming he was kind enough to turn up - and, for that matter, to not simply kill a valuable employee with all kinds of contacts and favours and interesting knowledge about important people, then make a run for it - he should've been arriving at any minute.
Not to mention, it was the perfect opportunity to find out what could so undo so useful a weapon. Seth's limitations were the kind of risk that she'd be much happier knowing about in advance. |
