£60k

What Trevor just explained, got everyone around at shock but at the same time one would expect something like this from a criminal to society.

Jack grabbed him [Trevor] around the neck and started shaking the man. "What do you mean he's dead? Are you joking? Is this your way of getting out of trouble?"

"It's not... I swear!" By the time Trevor replied here, gasping for air. Jack has already lifted this whole 6 foot man from the ground, using nothing but the dead grip around the blackmailer's neck.

Jack continues to tighten his grip, looking at the man with rage and actually wanting to kill. The plan was to murder this man all along, and here he got a lot of motivation.

That's when Anna walked in, calmly saying. "Jack stop. If what he says is true, killing him will just bring more threats."

The lady, quite logical. Although Jack doesn't want to hear it, he doesn't want to hear anything that ends up with this man walking out alive.

But she does have a point, although Jack still thinks. "I don't want these retards hurting Anna anymore."

Thinking it through even further, he knows that if Trevor dies and if what he's saying is true, the rest of the other blackmailer(s) would actually do something drastic such as posting everything through social media, either that or raise their demands of cash.

If not the two of the above, they might actually come for Anna's house.

Killing Trevor is a risk too big to take, hell's sake he can kill the man here and dump the body somewhere remote, which would evade any trouble from the police. But trouble from the legal system is the least of his concerns, Jack wants Anna to be free.

So he drops the man on the ground, obviously wasn't so careful about it, dropping Trevor down like a sack of potatoes and enjoying the soothing sound of him trying to catch his breath back. This type of suffering is minimalistic, this man deserves the worst of the worst.

Now Jack took it under consideration that this team of blackmailers have possibly taken many women hostage, so this fueled his idea towards a deal.

But first, he needs to assure that Trevor will by absolute certainty do what Jack asks. And for that, he needs to give Trevor a little scare.

Jack's hand started glowing, which signifies that he has the capability to severely burn whatever he touches. But Trevor might not know of this capability, so Jack reaches his fist towards Trevor's face but absolutely avoids contact.

Trevor started sweating and not just because there is a boiling hot hand near his face, sizzling flesh. Jack demands, "Tell me where your team lives, so I can come and end you all!"

"I can't tell you, and you can't kill them. At least not alone, they are armed to the teeth! They will shoot you down, even have a couple of guards." What Trevor is explaining here only points out that the case is bigger than they thought of it, it is getting far too dangerous.

"Fuck's sake." Jack cussed, angry that his plan has been put to an end right here. "Then we will do something else! Have you done anything to alert your team?"

"What do you mean?" Trevor asked, getting just a hunch relieved that he isn't dying.

"Have you called them ever since you left that hotel room? Or texted them or anything?" Jack continues, his tone rough and his glowing fist threatening the blackmailer's face.

"No, I couldn't have. I didn't have the time to do it." Trevor pointed out the obvious, at least Jack can believe him at this specific part.

"Good, how much do you want to go and delete every 'file' there of every woman!" Jack asked, willing to cooperate and hand out up to £100k really.

What's the point of piling up money if one wouldn't give back in some way, normally this would be a good metaphor but he wants Anna set free of this burden.

"Jack you don't have to do that. You can't spend more money!" Anna added from the background, almost willing to give up. I mean look how much one simple plan backfired, Imagine a bigger one.

"If you give me 60,000£ I can and will delete each file. There is a time where everyone is asleep, that's when I can do it." Trevor offered, talking quick. Obviously he is money oriented and couldn't care less about his team but is obviously mostly fearing them instead.

Jack was about to speak, willing to negotiate a deal and give all that money to set many women free. But Trevor has a bit more to say, which in a way proves that he is actually willing to take this deal.

Trevor requests, "But I need you to protect me until I leave London. These men are menaces, once they find out I did it, they will want to shove a glock up my ass." Actually showing a bit of regret, Trevor adds. "I just wanted quick money, I grew up from dirt. I just wanted to send some money back home in Adswood."

"Speaking of money, he dropped this while I was strangling him." Ali states, handing an envelope to Jack.

"This is the £10k." Jack pointed out the obvious, it can't be anything else.

Throwing the envelope in front of Trevor, Jack laid out another portion of the plan. "Take this money and deliver it to your team. Act like absolutely nothing wrong happened, do you understand me?"

Trevor nods in agreement and doesn't say anything else while awaiting for Jack to speak out the rest of the plan.

And so Jack did, "Tomorrow, you will come back here. I will give you another 20 grand, once you finish the Job, I'll give you the rest of the money and buy you a plane ticket back to Manchester."
