It was definitely heavier than it looked but it didn't contain anything alive. Instead, what was contained inside the book was a stack of thick binders filled with paper.

Atop the stack was a simple, unsigned note:


In case something should happen. It will take time for your day in court, so I'd rather you have copies of my notes as a precaution.


When Angel opened the first binder, he'd see a copy of his contract, portions highlighted and marked with little numbers. Numbers that referenced page numbers and paragraphs in the rest of the binders. And as he flipped through the pages, he'd realize what he held in his hands was the Dealmaker's arguments picking apart the original contract along with case records to back up each argument. The end result was renegotiation with the explicit statement that all revisions must be completely accepted by both parties of their own free will without direct or indirect coercion. And if no satisfactory compromise could be found? The contract would be nullified immediately. The notes were typed aside from a few handwritten notes in the margins for potential revisions though the section regarding renegotiation was underlined with a side note reading "Stand your ground."

Honestly, the thick set of binders would've brought a tear to any lawyer's eye.
