“Sounds reasonable. You calm her fears, see that she takes care of the boy and make her enjoy her stay well enough that she won’t make any attempt to leave or contact anyone. If she does, you are to prevent it and then dispose of her immediately. Can you do that, Mercier?”
“Of course. I assume you are not interested in her yourself, then?” He needed to make certain of that. If Chari made any move on Solange, Jack knew he would have to kill him, even if it blew the mission. He would just have to perform whatever damage control he could after that.
Chari frowned. “She is beautiful, but I dislike women who believe themselves intelligent. I detest the ones who really are.”
