Butch listened to her question before answering. "First, you must build up your rep. The better your reputation, the more well-known you will become. The better it is, the more that will come seeking your services.
I would suggest finding someone to work with to get you started. Maybe you could put your current contacts to use and make use of them in such a way, or you could use what you have to track someone down that you could begin to work with."
His advice seemed to be quite effective as Tiffany started to consider everything available to her.
She could not make use of her more legal contacts and assets as Diablo, but there were others that could fit her needs, so long as she did not have that great of a connection to them.
If there was anything that she learned in her current environment, then it was not to mix personal matters with business matters, as it could affect judgment and cause a variety of different problems.
She would be in charge of the lives and livelihoods of each person that she would be in charge of.
If she gave someone preferential treatment or trusted them too much, then it had the potential to create problems in the future, as her views and biases towards them would cloud her judgment about them.
If that happened, then it was possible that they could take advantage of her after receiving such treatment, and they could just as easily turn on her at a moment's notice, when she could have realized sooner if she had been more objective.
If there was a potential risk involved in something, or she had to make a decision quickly when someone close to her was involved, then it would be more likely that she would choose to give them a less risky task, or she would hesitate to make a decision at a crucial moment.
If such people were involved, then her decision-making skills would be compromised, even if it were a little.
It was just as important that she did not connect any of her close relationships to any of those matters, as such connections could become dangerous for them.
If someone happened to find out that she was connected to them, then they could be put in danger if someone tried to use them as leverage against her or wished to seek some form of revenge on her by harming those she cared for.
There were plenty of people who acted in such a manner toward their rivals and enemies, while there were just as many in the underworld who were just as spiteful and aggressive toward anyone who got on their bad side for the smallest of reasons.
She may have been able to remain safe using the current methods she had set up, but that did not mean that such methods could protect those who were involved in everything.
One wrong move could easily result in those involved being caught up in something dangerous, so she could not have anyone too close to her involved.
Tiffany started to look through all of her documents that contained names, addresses and other forms of contact information.
Some pages had extra information on them related to each person, as some things were trivial, while others were pieces of information that could prove useful.
Some of the names she had were copied over to a new piece of paper as she spotted something that could potentially be put to use.
As she started going through the information related to those she was taking notes on, she started to rearrange those documents some more as she started to explore ways to make use of everything.
Some needed to be approached in a certain manner, and convincing them to work with her to put their skills to use would not be so easy.
It was not like she could tell them that she was Tiffany if they did know of her true identity, so she had to make them believe in Diablo, who would be working with them.
Tiffany did not rush things as she tried to prepare with a little help from Butch during that time.
It was not until a little later that she finally started to make some movements as she began inhabiting the body that was located a little further outside of the city.
Several boxes had been piled up inside the building where Diablo had been living and remaining inactive when she was not occupying that body.
Most of the things inside were new sets of clothes, along with various types of tools or other gadgets that she would need.
Tiffany took full control over the body of Diablo before moving to dress herself in the same style of clothes that Diablo usually wore, which she had chosen previously, but with slightly different colors and patterns on them as she mixed and matched some of them.
The body of Diablo moved to straighten the bow tie around their neck before moving to the table where a phone was located.
The fingers began to press onto the phone screen softly as a number was typed into it before the phone started to call the person whose number it belonged to.
The voice modifier was switched on, and the call connected a moment later, as Tiffany could hear a male voice. "Hello? Who is this?"
Her voice changed to become quite deep after adjusting the voice modifier that was built into her lower face cover mask. "I am looking for a driver. Someone trustworthy who has good skills. I can pay your usual going rate so long as secrecy is maintained."
The voice on the other side of the phone went quiet for a moment before asking. "Who gave you this number?"
Although he sounded slightly hesitant and eager to cut off the call, he still maintained some patience and curiosity toward the unknown caller.
It would not be strange for someone to be given his number after someone required his services.
The reply of Tiffany came quickly as she nonchalantly responded. "That is of no importance. What matters is that I can pay. I need a driver and I have the money for your services."
The call ended just like that, but Tiffany did not have to wait too long until she received a text message with details of the prices and other information that was included related to the rules and deals that they worked with.
