E is the winner.
You suggest the possibility of threatening to go to the tabloid media with your story. Paul Hoodman puts a hand on his chest. “Mr. Black, you are a man after my own heart! That was just what I was thinking. That will really put the squeeze on her. The only drawback I can see is that if she holds out and we have to make good on that threat, you and your family will undergo some media scrutiny and be in the public eye for a bit.”
He holds out his other hand to the side. “I suppose I also owe it to you to explain what kind of favor I need done. Here’s the gist of it: another client of mine has some, well, important equipment that they don’t want to be found for a while. All you would have to do is pick up the stuff and keep it in a safe, secure location until he can take it back. Oh, and obviously don’t tell anyone about it. Even better if you don’t know what it is for that plausible deniability.”
“But you seem like my kind of guy, Mr. Black, and you’ve already been through a lot, so I’m not going to force you to do anything. How do you want to proceed?”
A.ctually, I can make arrangements for that favor.
B.lackmail it up, there’s no such thing as bad publicity.
C. Porque no los dos?
D. Let’s just proceed with the lawsuit as normal.
