Chapter Two Hundred and Ninety Six

George POV

This particular contractor is doing everything to frustrate me I have given him my best design but he always finds fault with each of them. Am starting to think that he is deliberately doing this, the board meeting that is supposed to hold this Wednesday was shifted to Friday cause almost half of the board members will not be able to attend the meeting cause they have a party to attend in the afternoon which was organised by no other than my uncle. I know what he is doing, he wants to play the waiting game with me, I will keep on waiting for the meeting to hold until I get tired of waiting, which also looks like what this contractor is doing. But there is no way my uncle will be able to use such a prestigious company for his dirty game unless the said contractor is an impostor.

Why did I not think of this earlier cause the more I think about it, the more things start to make sense to me. I sent the contractor profile to Aunty Rose and asked her to check about the guy and give me the feedback as soon as possible. Before the day ended, Aunty Rose's report came in through the Email and just as I suspected the guy is an impostor, pretending to be a contractor while he is just a labourer working with the company. I quickly called him and informed him that I have a design I will like him to check out if that will be possible, he accepted and scheduled to meet tomorrow afternoon. I won't go easy with him and so help me God that my uncle will not be the one behind cause if he is the one, then he is giving a hundred more reasons to hate him. I did not tell anyone about this cause I want to handle it myself and I don't think there is any reason to gather a crowd. The next day, am in the office but am constantly checking the time, I already told Sarah that I will not be having lunch with her today. Immediate was it 12:30 pm I walked out of my office and headed to the parking lot.

I arrived at the meeting place but the impostor is yet to arrive, fifteen minutes later he arrived sweating profusely, I guess that he ran to this place, so much for being a contractor. Sorry, there was so much traffic on the way, I have to walk all the way here so that I can meet up, he explained but I know that he is lying. I allowed him to continue with his lies, I want him to be comfortable first before I will call him out for lying to me. Yes, you said you have some designs to show me, he said. Yeah, that's true but I already know what your answer will be because you have already made up your mind to turn down anything I will present to you. He looked at me and I can swear I saw a fear flash in his eyes but he was quick to cover it and started talking. That's ridiculous, I want you to be the one to design this for our company but so far you have not given me what I want and I have...... I couldn't let him finish what he had to say cause the more he talked the more I got mad at him. Can you drop the act already cause I know what is going on, your game is coming to an end today John, I told him. He was so shocked but I know that he will still try to fight.

That is why I printed out all the data Aunty Rose sent to me. What nonsense are you talking about? I will not sit down and allow you to try to tarnish me, I can sue you for that and if you know that you can deliver the task given to you, I will suggest you say so than trying to play this game with me, He said and stood up to leave but I grabbed his wrist and pulled him back to his seat. I handed the documents to him, "I think you should go through these documents first before going cause I can't assure you that something pleasant will happen to you if you step out of this place, I said to him. He gulped and took the papers from me and started going through them, I was watching every move he makes and the emotions going on on his face. When he finished the last paper, beads of sweat have already formed on his forehead, he looked at me and asked me, How did you get all this? Let's say I have my ways and moving from that don't you think you owe me a serious explanation, Bo scrap that tells me who sent you? I inquired from him. Nobody sent me, I did it all on my own, he answered.

And you think that I will believe that, listen dude you don't know and I don't know you and out of all the company to frustrate you choose my company and specifically demanded that I will be the one to design it, I pointed his lie out to him. You are right you don't know me but you are wrong when you said that I don't know you, I know you and your company, your company is one of the best in the city when it comes to designing, I have seen a lot of your design and they are all good that is why I decided to mess with you, he said. I don't think I have the patience to listen to his continuous lying, I hit the table hard attracting the attention of others around but I don't give a damn about them right now. I will suggest you tell me the truth now cause when I said that outside will not be safe for you, I meant that the police are waiting for you outside in disguise and I will make sure that you and your family will not be able to enjoy whatever the person that employed your service paid you, I have to use that card on him so that I can get the truth from him and from the way he is shaking I know I have cracked him.
