2024-03-31 19:53:03âArrant nonsense!â, Ms Ann exclaimed, facing Clinton, who was shocked as well, he had been listening to the conversation and was short of words at first.
âCan you believe that old man, he is so callous, Iâm sure his youngest daughter and I will be agemates, how could he propose such a thing!â, Ms Ann said, clearly frustrated by now.
âYou have no idea how hard Iâve worked just to get this contract, I put in so much effort you know, only God knows how much I need this contractâ. she said dejectedly.
âCan you imagine him telling me to meet up with him??, I canât even bring myself to hug him, not to talk of sleeping with him, heâs so old and cunning , he has crossed the line, I donât know what he is going to gain by doing thisâ. She said angrily.
Joden Enterprises was a company that dealt with both manufacturing of clothes and designing them. So MsAnnâs company job was to clean them and pack appropriately.
It was a huge contract, the money that will be gotten from them working together would help Ann upgrade the laundromat because Joden Enterprises is one of the biggest fashion industry in the country.
This was what made Ms Ann devastated, and she had ordered for new materials and machines with the deposit that was paid earlier. Now she had no idea how she was going to pay them back.
âOh Lord!, Iâm going to be in so much debt, I even borrowed some money from the bank and I planned on paying them off with the money we receive after the jobâ. Ms Ann said sadly.
Looking at Ann who was already frustrated, Clinton felt pity for her and was thinking of ways to calm her down. He couldnât watch her go through something like this.
He didnât believe that such people still existed, how could a CEO propose such a thing, well, Ann was a pretty young lady with attractive features, she was a beautiful woman with an amazing personalityâ,
He glanced at her and saw her pretty face already sqeezed out of frustration, then he suddenly thought of something.
âMs Ann, how much is this contract youâre so worried about??â,he asked*, Ann looked at him with tears welled up in her eyes, âitâs 300 million dollars in total Clinton, can you see that itâs a huge amount of money??.
âI have to work for like 20 years more to get such an amount!â, she exclaimed.
âOkay then, I will give you 500 million dollars â, He said seriously. Ann looked at him for a while and grinned, âI know youâre trying to cheer me up Clinton, but this isnât a time to joke around, this matter is not one to joke about.
âIâm serious Ann, Iâm willing to give you 500 million dollars, but on one conditionâ, he said, still staring at her and waiting for her response.
âAnd where do you intend on getting the money Clinton, you and I know you donât have such moneyâ, she said and narrowed her eyes looking at him suspiciously
âIâm your boss, I know how much I pay you, you canât even save such money even in twenty years with your paycheckâ.
âI hope youâre not planning on collecting a loan or doing something illegal to get the money??,she said, still giving him a questioning look.
Iâm sure you havenât seen even a million dollars SSC before, how can you give me 500 million dollars, if youâre joking, please stop, okay!, she said angrily.
âMs Ann, do you want the money or notâ, he said, ignoring her questions and looks.
Ms Ann was at a crossroad, she didnât know what to do, she threw Clinton suspicious glances as she thought about it.
âYou know I do Clinton, i really do, i just donât know how you plan on getting that kind of money, i mean, look at you!â, she said furrowing her brows.
âDonât worry about that Ms Ann, i just wanna know if youâre interested or notâ.
âFine, if I were interested, what is your condition??â, she asked.
âThe condition is, after I give you the money, you have to make me your partner, I get 50% profit share on whatever you makeâ.
âYou donât have to sleep with that wrinkled old man for such small money, youâre a good person Ms Ann and you donât deserve to be treated in that manner, thatâs why Iâm trying to help, I can help you grow your company and make you the best in the countryâ. he continued while Ann was pondering.
âI really do not believe you Clinton, I really appreciate you trying to cheer me up but if this is a joke, it is an expensive one, so stopâ. Ms Ann was getting a bit annoyed by now, she thought that he was trying to make fun of her.
âI know itâs hard to believe, but 500 million dollars is nothing but peanuts to me, you canât understand but you have to trust me Annâ. Clinton said seriously.
Bewildered and curious,Ms Ann asked,
âIf 500 million dollars is just âpeanutsâ to you, why are you here??, why are you working as a delivery man, if you have so much money as you claim, why are you working under me??,
Iâve seen your house, it sure is a mansionâ, she said sarcastically.
Clinton smiled at her words, and faced her, âIâm being serious Ms Ann, Iâm going to propose this to you for the last time, I donât have much time, I really want to help you, but if youâre not interested, I wonât force you, itâs your choiceâ.
Ms Ann was still thinking about it, she knew Clinton could not afford such amount ,she had seen the way he lived, she even found out about his divorce and knew it was money issues that led to it.
She couldnât help but wonder when he made such proposition, âSee, I know youâre a good man,an hardworking one too, Iâve always admired your diligence and perseverance , I respect you a lot and you know itâ.
âBut, if you continue saying such nonsense, I might have to ask you to leave, Iâm not in the mood for this right nowâ.she said matter of factly.
She wore her glasses back, moved her chair forward and started sorting out some of the files on her desk.
âAnn, if you donât want this, itâs fine but know this, if you donât accept my help and your company crashes, you would have no one but yourself to blameâ. he said
âYou know why?, because you had the chance to save it but you didnât because you didnât accept help from me and are you sure you want to live with that for the rest of your life??â.
âIâm just trying to save your company, I know youâre nothing without it, you canât survive without it, I know you need my help. But if youâre still bent on not accepting help from me, then itâs on you if anything bad happensâ. Clinton concluded.
Ms Ann stopped what she was doing and looked at him in disbelief, wondering if he had gone crazy.
âFine thenâ, she stood up swiftly and went towards the shelf in her office, she searched for some papers for a while then she typed somethings on her laptop, printed them and came back to her seat.
She arranged the papers properly, opened her drawer and brought out a stapler, she stapled them together and applied a spiral binder.
She then faced him , âI donât trust you yet Clinton but if itâll make you stop joking around, then fine.
She wrote something on the first page and threw the document towards him, âThere, that is the contractâ. She said out of annoyance.

Marie!, Clinton said loud enough for the two people in the room to hear. On hearing his voice, they quickly separated.Marie quickly used the bedcover to hide her bare chest and picked her blouse from the bedside and tried to put it on.He couldnât believe his eyes. How could she do such a thing to him after everything he had done to make her happy.He felt betrayed. Meanwhile Marie didnât even stand up, she looked at him with scorn and seemed unbothered.His chest tightened at her indifference, he couldnât talk, he just stood there debating on either beating the man to a pulp or leaving.âWhy are you here Clinton??, arenât you supposed to be at work???â, Marie said indignantly while sitting up.The man she was kissing earlier had also worn his shirt back and was a bit scared that Clinton was going to do something to him.Clinton stood at 6â4, with arms that looked like he had been working out.
