The Jet settled at the roof top of the Lavanda group company in Pattaya.
Some security personnels led them into the main building through an elevator.
The place was luxurious and infact contained latest technology facilities. It was one of the most expensive building with several penthouses attached to it.
Outside the main building, was a large logo representing the Lavanda group. It's symbol was L and G with a gold and sky blue moon background.
James sat on the expensive couch not taking his eyes off the diamond statue on the table. He folded his arms and waited patiently for Mr Judy to arrive since his contract was at stake.
Luke stood beside him, holding the briefcase with his eyes roaming about. The place was indeed beautiful and large. Everything in the room screamed wealth and the statues alone was something to kill for.
This deal had to be sealed no matter what considering the riches James could acquire from Lavanda.
After about Thirty minutes, Judy stepped in with a troop of men in black and tinted glasses.
James stood up with respect and shook hands with Him. Judy smiled, asking him to relax comfortably.
Luke stared at the huge black dressed men feeling inferior and intimidated. They were MrJudy's personal guards and he was nothing compared to them. The tinted glasses concealing their eyes made him cringe even more.
Lowering his eyes, he looked away in fear.
Mr Judy served strong brewed coffee of a limited product. The aroma was breathtaking and could awaken your nostrils.
He sipped slowly without avoiding eye contact with James. In return, James smiled and complemented him.
"Such an expensive treat. I must say, I'm honored" James sipped his coffee.
"off course you are. I don't leave my guest starving. You must have had a great deal traveling all the way here." He replied dropping his coffee cup.
James smiled. "I wouldn't have come if you didn't back out from the contract signing. It was really a huge..."
"Don't blame me for the troubles. I was prepared more than ever for this deal but you messed it up." He frowned crossing his arms, a disappointed glare in his face.
James lifted his eyes in confusion. Wondering what it was he did wrong. "I don't remember anything been amis. infact, the contract was supposed to be signed according to your conditions, which I respected"
"oh really?... we'll see about that." Mr Judy's lips curved into a dangerous smile, making James's heart skip a beat.
He signaled one of his guards who handed a blue folder to him in return.
He gave the folder to James who collected it innocently unaware of the situation.
Luke peeped with curiosity behind James at the files to see it's content.
He looked at Mr Judy whose smiles didn't look sincere at all. He nodded, urging James to go on.
James striped the blue folder off and was shocked to the core. What is this doing here???
Nude photos of Lisa in bed with a stranger. Scandalous!
Luke too was confused at the contents. He blinked severally, to me sure it was real. How in earth is that connected to the contract?
James lifted his brows and twitched his lashes. He looked at Mr Judy who still had that misleading smile on his face.
"what's all these?" he asked flipping the photos all over the table.
"you should know that. They are pictures of your ex and my cousin" he glared taking another sip of his coffee.
"your cousin? how's that even possible??" James yelled.
"Your ex fiancee created a scandal with my cousin. That scandal caused me billions of money!" Judy stood up angrily firing him a murderous glare.
Now James understood everything. Mr Judy was that ass hole's uncle! Who knew that Lisa would cause him trouble some day???
"And you think I didn't lose anything because of what they did? that's preposterous!" James challenge him with a stand.
Mr Judy smirked. "I guess I'm done with you. I can't ever do business with a business man who was involved in a dirty scandal"
The tension in the room was too much. But neither guards nor Luke did anything. They just stood firm in their positions watching the noisy billionaires.
"You're so unbelievable. you're going to terminate this deal because of a 3 years old scandal? like seriously?" James asked with disbelieve.
Mr Judy wasn't know to take silly mistakes at heart. A calculative Man who doesn't spend time on trivial pursuit. so how come?
"A 3 years old scandal that caused me billions I can't recover in 5 years!. I was supposed to launch a very important technology that year but I had to cancel it because of your fiancee's foolishness!" He grunted slapping the nude pictures over James face.
"She's not my fiancee! and non of these are my faults!" he shouted back at him, defending his personality.
"I don't care. You may take your leave." Judy pointed towards the door in furry with a calm voice.
"Let's rethink over the.." James tried calming him down.
"it's not gonna happen...I have signed a deal with another Client already." He sat down crossing his legs confidently.
Luke sneered at him. How can he treat his boss with no epitome of respect?... how dare him insult his boss? but off course, he wasn't bold to utter a word.
James was shocked. It dawned on him that this was just a trap. A trap to make him feel guilty. So Mr Judy had decided from the start that he wasn't going to do business with him? why ask him to come over then?
"why?...why ask me to come here if you were going to make a fuss out of something clumsy?" James asked.
Now he wasn't interested in any damn contract anymore.
He just wanted an answer. A reasonable excuse why Judy had to waste his time.
"because you would love to know who I choose instead of you.....It's Nicholas Bernard, your FRIEND." He nastily stressed on the word friend and laughed observing the shock on James's face.
Mr Judy was very much aware of the fact that James and Nich had cut ties.
James turned red as his blood boiled in furry. Nich is an Ass hole!
