Vanessa: smirking C-can you believe him? Thinks he can g-get away with it.
I am a tycoon who was caught dancing at the club Well, Look Who's been caught dancing at the club?
raises an eyebrow, crosses her arms Oh, it's you, Lincoln. The tycoon who can't keep his hands off the dance floor. What are you up to, my dear friend?
Nothing really just trying to have fun
leans in closer, voice low and sardonic Fun, you say? You call lying about your whereabouts "fun"? Trying to sneak around behind your wife's back?
laughs mockingly Oh, how hilarious! Sneaking around, trying to avoid the wrath of Mrs. Lincoln Carter.
chuckles Yeah, well, better laugh while you can, Vanessa. This might be the last time you see me dance.
narrows her eyes, smirk playing on her lips Oh, dear Lincoln, you underestimate my ability to get what I want.
smirks, takes out her red notebook Oh, you have no idea, my dear friend. But let's see if we can't make a little deal, shall we?
flips through the pages of her red notebook Well, Lincoln, I want something that's been eluding me for quite some time now.
pauses dramatically, then smirks I want a little bit of your honesty, my dear Lincoln.
leans in closer, voice dripping with authority I want you to stop lying to me, Lincoln. No more hiding, no more secrets.
ok fine but first tell me what you want
Vanessa blackmails Lincoln into telling her the truth about his infidelity
I had a one-night stand with my secretary that’s why I was leaving early
pauses for a moment, her smirk fading slightly A one-night stand? With your secretary? How...unexpected. closes her red notebook
yes and I didn’t expect you to find out
gives a knowing look Oh, how convenient for you, Lincoln. You think you can just confess and it'll all blow over?
stands up abruptly, voice firm Well, my dear friend, you underestimate my wrath. This little confession of yours has consequences, you see.
smirks, taps her red notebook Oh, the possibilities are endless, my dear Lincoln. But let me give you a taste of what's to come.
grabs Lincoln's collar, pulling him closer First, I'm going to make sure your little secretary knows exactly who she's messing with.
