Friday afternoon that same week has me sitting in my predestined spot waiting. I know there is a meeting going on inside the main office of Apex Lumber and Distribution and with Ben feeding me updates as Mrs. Montgomery’s situation and the reactions I’m all smiles when I get my green light and step out of the limo and casually walk up to the front to meet Mr. Weisner for the first time. At all of 5’9” and some form of blonde hair replacement and a little extra pounds I am all smiles on the inside but all business as I approach.

“Mr. Weisner come with me please,” I tell him trying to guide him by the arm.

“Excuse me I need to get somewhere,” He says trying to brush me off.

“Like to the company car that is no longer yours so that you can go back to the company house you’ve been living at that is on company land and you no longer have claim to,” I ask and watch him freeze,” You have two options Mr. Weisner, one attempt to retrieve your meager possessions or get in the car.”

I leave him with the choice and enter the back of the limo to wait. It isn’t even a minute later that the driver ushers him into the back of the car with me and now we’re facing each other as he looks around like he’s never been in a limo before.

“Mr. Weisner the people I represent need someone who can build up a business to cut apart competition. You were selected for your skills in what would have been a tremendous take down of Apex Lumber but now with that idea scrapped I’m here to present you with a job,” I state as he listens.

“What kind of job,” he asks and I smile.

“One that will be somewhere the US won’t come looking for you for the charges you now face,” I explain and watch him start to panic.

“I won’t face any charges,” He wants to put me off but I have more than enough and simply smile.

“We know the money laundering, the low balling and money handoffs. All of those are white collar and carry simple sentences but you lose your money,” I explain simply,” The deal my people are offering is one time only and what you put in to the extraction comes back when you complete the goal they set.”

I hand him an envelope with basics in it, account number, terms of contract and most importantly the price he’ll be paying.

“Fifty thousand dollars,” He exclaims and I wait for him to blow over before speaking.

“This entitles you to a guaranteed get out of jail and the country in the next hour to a new home in a land where the women speak very little English and you won’t need them to,” I smile my predator smile,” Now if you want to leave I recommend you note the new arrivals to your old employer.”

I watch his gaze turn to the front of Apex Lumber and his face goes slack and pale as a black SUV pulls up and two people, a man and a woman exit the SUV.
