The phone rang again before Dayo had a chance to move away from the table.
He looked at the screen and saw the same unknown number.
Felix stopped typing.
Dayo answered the call and put it on speaker.
"You've received the next instruction," the intermediary said.
Dayo remained quiet, waiting for him to continue.
"This one is different. There is an investigation involving a company. You are going to make sure that investigation stops. You have the influence to do it."
Dayo looked at Felix.
"What company?"
"The details will be sent to you."
"And if I refuse?"
The man's voice became colder. "You already know what happens if you refuse."
Dayo looked down at the floor for a moment. "What about my daughter?"
"She's alive. Do what you're told, and she stays alive."
The call ended.
For a few seconds, neither man spoke.
