"Fuck" Ivory whispers, "Then... that's that. I don't think its as simple as a drug. I'll ask around when I get out. I doubt some would be thrilled about the Wah Ching doing, well, this."
Then there's a pause as Ivory considers her options. Ivory wasn't street smart, had very little connections to Lost associated with underground concerns, and lacked the understanding to help the woman herself. There was, for the moment, no way to help Elizabeth in the short term. Sadly, Ivory doubted that she had that kind of time, but the Pale Dragon could not ignore the pieces she has.
"If she survives...," Ivory trails off, her tone defeated, "Maybe I can help her then. Before I do anything I need to get what I have out. Thanks."
She'd pause, letting Evelyn speak should she need to. Her mind though ventured into a dark acceptance. She did not want Elizabeth to die, but she had nowhere she could take the ailing woman. For the current moment, the priority needed to be getting the forms out. With a little bit of luck, she could uncover more and grease a few wheels in the underbelly of the Freehold for information and, potentially, allies, should they exist.

"She would be the one to ask," Evelyn said, "For drugs, that is. Umm...'if she survives'? Should you be calling an ambulance or something? Oh! I just looked up 'Wah Ching'," she was pleased with being able to catch up to her girlfriend's predicament.
"...You're dealing with a big gang?" The woman sounded impressed and intrigued. "...Why not just ask to buy some? Then you would have a sample. Gorgeous woman like yourself shouldn't have too much trouble asking for a good time." That's how it was in criminal dramas, anyway.

Ivory breathes out as Evelyn uncovers some surface information on her little adversary.
"Not something they can help with, I think. I'd be risking my cover bringing her to Ambrosia too, which doesn't make it worth it if she can't help," she mused, "I don't think she's a dealer... more a victim. Suspected money launderer. I need to find where they are selling it."
"And I can't ask her because she might... think I'm part of the gang," she said, "I'll think of something."

"Okay, darling. I'd wish you luck but that's for people who actually need it," she chuckled, before naturally ending the conversation.

Ivory smiled slightly at Evelyn's words, her optimism was normally infectious, but Ivory had to stay cool and consider what she would do if things failed.
"Talk soon," she offered, before finally ending the phone call. She left out the usual 'I love you'. If she hadn't been as careful as she thought she did not need the Wah Ching tracing the connections.
Thus, Ivory rose, tucked her phone, with its digital scans, away, and finally left the office.
"Everything appears to be in order. It seems our information was faulty, we will deal with them, but there is no reason to concern yourself on the matter," she offered, "As for your other concern, we will be in touch. Do not leave the city unless directed otherwise. Understood?"
Ivory understood the statement could be perceived as a threat, but she wasn't exactly portraying one of the 'good guys' and, if the request was adhered to, it suited her needs. No matter how forceful.

The woman crossed her arms, taking a long breath as she made a non committal noise.
