Mr. Frederick and Elijah Simons were still deep in conversation. The last words from Mr. Frederick had settled perfectly in Elijah's ears, and a slow, satisfied smile spread across his face.
But Elijah was still a bit confused about the exact plan his friend had in mind. With a curious yet uncertain look, he asked, "This plan you're talking about, I don't really understand how it's going to play out. But I trust you to make it work. Can you briefly explain it to me?"
Mr. Frederick's smile deepened. "Elijah, this plan will work. I believe in it completely. But right now, what I need from you is simple—go back home, gather all your men, and keep them on standby. I'll give you the full details tomorrow, but first, I need to bring in some more professional hands to strengthen our side."
Elijah nodded, though the excitement in his chest was hard to hide. "Alright, I'll do just that. I'll get going immediately."
