Man “Alone"

Chapter 6

" According to the rumors about the Boss it says that he is a cold , distant and ruthless man and what would a man like that be doing with me " thought t Funke to herself as she and the entire entourage if people passed t through the long passage lined with expensive items such as paintings, embroideries, expensive vases all in thick bullet proof glass and walls lined with decorative designs in gold that screamed wealth!!.

" This is as far as we go ma'am, from here on you are going to be seeing g the Boss on your own" said Rodgers as he beckoned for Funke to go on into the other room through the giant doors s s as he bowed slightly.

' okay y this is all me now.' thought Funke to herself as she went through the surprisingly light doors.

SWING!!

Went the doors as they opened revealing an elegant and well furnished office which Funke could swear was as large if not bigger than her entire apartment,inside the office was no different than the long passage which led to it both being luxurious that she doubted if the palaces of kings were as luxurious and well furnished as the office e e which was a question that would pop up o on another person's mind as they went further in.

" welcome Miss Akinotan " came a voice from the e other end of the came a voice from the other e end of the office were four individuals were three men and o one woman were standing as if waiting for her.

" we have been awaiting your presence " please have a seat .

I approached all four of them a little nervous thinking to myself about the events that led me up to this point and I also scanned all four individuals s especially the man seating on the chairman's seat while facing the windows looking down or up not really sure as it was hard to see him with both his security guards the burly man and the hard faced woman protecting him like he was some sort of fine piece of meat.

" Glad you could make it" j a choice in coming here seeing that it was my Boss that called d for me and I need the job and I don't plan on losing the job because I have to support my mum and this job would really make the difference in our situation " said Funke as she narrated her situation.

"okay calm down Miss Akinotan we.. I mean the Boss just needs a favour from you and it really would make the difference for him if you could help him out and it doesn't matter what your answer is all that matters is that you are doing this of your own accord and free will." said the man.

" so uhm m Mr "

" Bankole i am Mr Tokunbo's lawyer and legal advisor on all things legal and in case of any awkward situation he might find himself in." said the lawyer as he explained his role in Mr Tokunbo's life.

" Mr Bankole I think your request is what your Boss stated over the phone last night and also is he not going to chip in this because I feel like h he is just waiting for you to get this over with and later come into this situation and take control." stated Funke as she e looked a away from the lawyer while looking at Tokunbo and raising her voice albeit.

"okay you want me to be involved in the conversation okay you will get that." said Tokunbo as he turned his seat to face the conversation that was going on.

looking at the new face that j just joined the conversation with chiseled and manly features and a dark skinned complexion donning a business suit that only added and not diminish hi handsome features..

" Yes I would appreciate that okay now I want you to repeat what you told me over the phone last night this time in person not through the phone and not through a third d o party you got that " said Funke as she stared at the man before her with sharp eyes .

' At least if I lose my job I am going to go against a freaking Billionaire at least that is something to be proud of ' thought Funke as she stared down at him too with both of them having a staring contest that didn't last long

" Okay as I said last night over the phone I want you to act as my Girlfriend just for a while nothing too much just for while it will be under the supervision of a contract that would prohibit any sort of nuisances between both parties and that is not all as you would be paid on a weekly basis to ensure that you are not being cheated and to ensure that both parties are on a equal relationship and no one feels like a slave or any sort of things associated with the word ." said Tokunbo as he gave a brief overview on the situation he wants to put Funke in .

After five long grueling minutes that seemed to crawl which did not ease the tension in the room as both individuals continued their staring r contest

' Hmm it doesn't look like iam doing anything wrong or against my beliefs but should I trust someone like him a Billionaire who as no limit in the power he can use just because he can ' thought Funke to her self as she struggled to maintained her composure while looking at Tokunbo straight into his Brown coloured eyes .

" okay I would like to see the contract" said Funke

" Bankole hand it over to her" said Tokunbo while maintaining his glare on her .

" Here Miss Akinotan" said Bankole as he handed her the contract specifying the agreement between both parties.

Flip ! FLIP! FLIP! FLIP!

Flipping through the pages of the contract which resounded throughout the silent room.

" okay I have read through it and I have a problem with this clause that says if the situation between 'Party A deems it necessary to breach the contract by doing things that seems unruly to Party B it is permitted in case of Emergencies ‘ , what does that mean because this is going to be some " Fifty shades s**t " and I do not like it." said Funke to Bankole .

" okay Miss Akinotan this is not going to be like some " Fifty shades s**t" and that clause just states that if he is pressured by a certain family member which you will get to know about eventually.
