In a mansion in Belgrade, the cigar in Kirov's mouth shone with bright flames.
Dimitri connected the satellite phone to the external device. A connected stereo allowed the call to be played out. A pair of hi-fi earpieces were handed to the interpreter he had found.
"Take out 200% of your service and professional attitude. This is a big client with noble morals and humanitarian feelings. Prove to me that the reward paid to you is enough to match your value."
The Russian pointed at the interpreter who was sitting upright with his cigar.
His tone was a little meaningful.
He added, "Believe me, you don't want me to ask for someone else."
The interpreter was a Serbian. He was dressed in a sharp suit and his beard was carefully trimmed. He was tall and fair-skinned. He had the demeanor of a white elite and looked very reliable. Even if he appeared on Wall Street, there was nothing strange about it.
