Bab 582: Great white whale

"If you think you can scare me away from demanding what you personally promised me, then you have something else coming your way." She almost shouted at him in her rage, but she did not. 

She only raised her voice a few octaves so that he could hear her. She could not help it when it was clear that he was not taking her seriously. Putting her in this ridiculous situation was a perfect example.

She quickly thought of her story and the questions she had prepared. She was not allowing distractions to deter her from her task, not when she could help it.

"I have no such intentions to do such things." He said in a loud voice. "I doubt that anything could scare you." He mumbled the last part, clearly fascinated with the female reporter.

He did not lie to her. He believed she was the kind of woman who did not easily get spooked by just anything. However, he was tremendously curious about her persistence, tolerance, and limitations.
