What a way to go! Perfect plan. 

Honestly I knew I really didn't have a say in all of this, I mean, they had all their calculations in line with my legal agreement. 

Not like I would really mind if they had gone otherwise. 

I forever remain indebted to Rocks limited. 

“ Well, yeah that was pretty why I came here the other day to discuss with you first, but you had an emergency I am not in anyway supposed to know of.” 

He placed his hands on his chin as he stared at me. 

“ Hey come on now Joe, don't take the piss already. 

Remember what this is all about right? Remember we promised to make this professional and all about business. 

In as much as you have been of great help to me, it really is not a reason for me to report to you.

I believe you understand this, so please keep to your word, and our initial agreement.”

I didn't feel too proud while I spoke, or after I said this, but then I clearly didn't want to tell lies, or even reveal his son to him. 

He smiled and sucked his teeth. 

Looking up briefly to meet my gaze, and he nodded slightly. 

“ Well, allright. If you say so.

I clearly agree, and I will not stand in your way for any reason anymore. Just business it is, partners we are. 

Professional it will remain.” 

He raised his hands to the air briefly. 

“I believe in done here then. I've passed my message across, and saved the fax’s energy. That's quite unprofessional, but I've learnt.”

He got up, still looking at me, “ just be careful. 

I didn't take you out of Egypt for you to still have anything doing with their gods.”

He winked and left. 

I heaved a huge sigh as soon as he was gone. 

Son of a bitch thinks he can manipulate me easily. 

He is here crying. 

He barely has gotten a taste of what I had to go though all of this years for his sake. 

I am only getting started with him. 

Shaking my head I immediately began to go through the file he brought. 

And yeah true to his words, they had stuck to the agreement. 

I sighed and threw the file into the drawer. 

Closing the drawer, I saw something. 

A picture of Elgreen when he was a few years younger. 

I took a deep breath, and stared at the picture. 

I took it out, and instantly tears dropped from my eyes. 

Way brilliant and handsome for his mother to be absent in his life. 

His father too. 

I questioned my choices.

“ Am I really doing too much? Am I overcomplicating issues? Is this really worth all of the stress and trauma I'm putting the kid through? Starving him of his father all this while. 

I am not sure he would be the happiest when he finds out, but then I had to go about it this way, till I was sure Jonathan was ready for the truth and reality. 

He was clearly a good person now, but could still switch at anytime. 

I needed to solidify my stance in his life first, especially with the presence of Miriam in his life. 

It was all going to be a rough part, but it didn't matter. 

I had a plan and a reason for all that I had going on. 

Miriam
——

Hissing, I picked the phone to dial his number. 

I had no choice but to go ahead with the plan. 

Not long ago, I got info that Rocks was onto a major move to diversify into degeant. 

This would be the final blow to me if I didn't act quite fast.  I really needed to do something and fast. 

“ Hey !” 

I called out, but there was silence at the other end. 

“ Hello! Anyone there?” 

I called out and soon I got a reply 

“ Yeah girl you really have almost no manners . 

Literally waking me from my much deserved sleep for what reason? I hope it is worth it for the sake of God.”

I rolled my eyes. 

“ Whatever , I've reviewed what you said, and yeah I'm in for it.”

He chuckled. 

“ In for what exactly? What did we discuss?” 

I stared at the phone scornfully. 

“ What do you mean? I came to your office a few days ago, and we spoke about helping me sabotage the plans of degeant growing any further. 

Crumbling even, and the owner getting frustrated out of my life.”

He chuckled. 

“ Yeah I know that, and what else did we discuss?” 

He asked, and I sighed. 

“ Yeah I know, I'm ready.”

He clicked his tongue. 

“ Nah.. you don't get it. 

Sex is not enough anymore. Except of course you up your game and make it unforgettable, it will be a bonus. 

But the main deal is something worse. 

I will be needing a lot more from you. 

I noticed the current movements, constant board meetings on meetings. 

I need to be in on what they are up to. 

In addition to my rights. 

The rights is your body of course. 

Matter of fact, I need you at the Hotel du largade by 5pm today. 

Anything less, and we do not have anything between us. 

Come with the information.”

My eyes widened. 

“ What? This is such a short notice! How am I to get started?” 

He replied, “ well, I have no idea, and don't come lying to me. 

I will need the information to make your wish come true. You should be transparent and honest. 

Come pure.” 

He chuckled and smacked his lips, and I could immediately feel the ICL already, but nothing so much that I could actually do. 

I heaved a huge sigh and I nodded. 

“ Allright then 5 it is, let me see what I can quickly hold on to.” 

“ Yeah that's right, the time is ticking tick!” 

He laughed and I hung up. 

Oh my days! What on earth have I turned to? 

Well, honestly I really care less. 

I know I only needed all of this to cement my position in Jonathan's life. 

Once that was sure, the funding would definitely not be my problem. 

I just need this wedding as soon as can be. 

This is just it. 

I need to get her as far way as I can get from him. 

I placed around the room as I tried to think of how to get access to all of the information this time without looking suspicious. 

Of course Jonathan hadn't suspected me yet of anything. 

I could still show up at his place and lay my hands on some vitals. 

I nodded my head, and immediately got in the bathroom to shower. 

Soon I was done and out for the next step of my plan.
