No.

[That's that. The answer is no - to telling, at least. That's not how the deal works, never has been. And perhaps it's a matter of timing, of waiting until Creed is desperate in one way or another (because no matter how much you might think you never will be, it happens to everyone) - waiting until then to deal.]

[He's promised Iris an attempt. Never a quick one. Some things require finesse. Victor Creed clearly requires a lot.]


It's a check for a certain amount, to be filled in later. You tell me how much this information is worth to you, I tell you how big of a favor you'll owe, when I'm in need. If you double-cross me, I stab you in the back.

[None of this is said with any urgency or concern. He's interested, yes. But this is just how he does business. It's not personal. It never has been and never will be, or at least that's the hope.]
