A few months of Nelson, Murdock & Page and it seemed that they had never stopped working together. Except some things were different now. They were better.
“I know what we can do,” Karen said all of a sudden, “we can’t use this in court, but maybe I could talk to Ellison about it.”
“Wait. You mean—?” Foggy started to ask her but she soon interrupted him.
“Foggy, I won’t say much, just enough to lead him in the right direction, I know he’s got someone investigating them. He just needs a little push.”
Foggy took a deep breath. “Karen—”
“An article would piss these bastards off and then Matt can wear his mask and get more information. Once they’ve been exposed someone will talk.” She paused. “I would talk to them myself but they can’t connect the article to our case or it would be jeopardized.”
There was a moment of silence, they were both waiting to see what Matt thought about it.
“Let’s do it,” Matt said.
Foggy sighed. Two votes against one.
Karen looked at Foggy and waited. A total agreement, that was the deal now. No more secret strategies, no more lies. Foggy shrugged and nodded at them.
“Fine. Let’s do it. I’ll let The Lovebirds Without Fear deal with it,” he said closing his folder and shaking his head.
Both Matt and Karen turned their heads towards him.
“The what?” She asked and all of them burst out laughing.
“I’m trying names for you two,” Foggy explained and Matt raised his eyebrows, “but I haven’t found the right one yet.”
“No, you obviously haven’t.” She said laughing.
“It’s better than Maren, that’s the first one I though of.” Foggy added.
“Actually, The Woman Without Fear would suit you Karen,” Matt told Karen, teasing her.
“You think?” She asked turning her head to look at her boyfriend.
She smiled as soon as she saw the smile on his face. She was still amazed that he considered her brave when everyone else would be calling her stupid and reckless. Maybe the nickname was fitting after all.
“Nevermind, something better will come up.” Foggy added and winked an eye at Karen who started laughing again. “And when it does, it’ll be glorious.”
