23.07% A Second Chance : I Will not waste it / Chapter 132: Hand over

Chapter 132: Hand over

Early on a peaceful Friday Morning.

"Madam, the young Master have already left" said Alfred as he saw Natasha walk down the stairs.

"Oh alright then Alfred, thank you" said Natasha as she smiled.

"I am going out now, I will be back soon" said Natasha as she smiled.

"Alright then Madam" said Alfred as he smiled and Natasha smiled at him, she had now grown the habit to telling him whenever she was going out, because she knew that he would get unnecessarily worried over little things, and he would not be at rest till he saw her back home.

"Have a good day Madam" said Alfred as he smiled.

"I will and you too Alfred" said Natasha as she smiled and she walked out the front door, as she walked to her car.

She wore blue flared jeans and a red shirt, and this time she had taken her black handbag along with her, since she was meeting someone in a professional setting.

Natasha opened the door to her car and she got into her car, but before she drove off, she got her phone from her handbag and she dialed a number as she waited for it to be picked up, and after a while it was.

"Good Morning, I hope we are still on for today" said Natasha.

"I am not one to miss an already scheduled meeting Mrs. White" said Willy's voice as he sounded annoyed.

"Alright, I was just checking" said Natasha.

"Because I am not one to accept disappointment" said Natasha as she smiled.

"I will see you in an hour" said Willy as he ended the phone call, but Natasha did not care at all, she just smiled and put her phone back in her handbag as she started her car and she drove away.

"Hello Miss, would you like your usual??" asked a smiling waitress as she walked in front of Natasha as she was sitting down waiting for Willy to arrive.

"Yes please, thank you" said Natasha as she smiled.

"Anytime Miss" said the waitress as she smiled and she went to get Natasha's order, Natasha was a regular customer here, and she was the only woman that ordered a specific blend of tea, so it was not hard for her to know Natasha's usual.

Natasha looked at her phone, so much for being early, the time was 9am on the dot, and the person she had come here to meet was nowhere to be found, or that was until the bell of the coffee shop opened and the man she was waiting for

"Mrs. White" said Willy as he sat down across Natasha at the table she was sitting on.

"Mr, Chestnut" said Natasha as she smiled at him, it was not a friendly smile.

"So what is so important that you asked me to meet you here??" asked Willy as he went straight to the point, after the last meeting he and Natasha had, he would not like to spend anytime with this woman, she was as cold as an iceberg, her pretty face could fool you, but once she opened her mouth, you would be destroyed.

"Your order Miss" said the waitress as she placed Natasha's cup of tea on the table.

"Thank you" said Natasha as she smiled at her.

"Would you like anything sir?" asked the waitress as she turned to look at Willy.

"No, I am fine" said Willy.

"Alright Sir" said the waitress as she smiled and she walked away.

"Well Mr, Chestnut" said Natasha as she took a sip of her tea.

"I called you here because we recently found out something very important concerning you and the business" said Natasha.

"And that is??" asked Willy as he was getting tired of the back and forth.

"We recently wanted to start a store, and our choice for that was Lexington, since the business has land there… or so we thought" said Natasha.

"What do you mean?" asked William.

"Mr. Chestnut, the thing is that the land is not registered under the business's name, but rather it is registered in your name" said Natasha as she sighed.

"Well which means that you own the land Mr. Chestnut" said Natasha as she explained.

"So why did you call me here??" asked Willy.

"Do you want me to just get up and hand over the land to you??" asked Willy as he scoffed.

"No or course not" said Natasha as she shook her head.

"I am willing to buy the land from you… at reasonable price of course" said Natasha as she looked very serious.

"My business needs the land, and you have the land, surely we can come to some sort of agreement" said Natasha.

"Oh I see" said Willy as he shook his head.

"Well then, how about we become business partners?" asked Willy as he smiled.

"Then that way you can get what you want, and I can get what I want" said Willy.

"Well no, I am sorry but that is not possible Mr. Chestnut" said Natasha as she shook her head.

"And why not?" asked Willy.

"*Sigh*" said Natasha as she sighed.

"Look Mr. Chestnut, I do admit that I was too harsh on you last time we spoke" said Natasha as she looked at Willy.

"And for that I am sorry, I offer you my apology now, I was unnecessarily mean to you" said Natasha as she apologized.

"Oh…" said Willy as he did not know what to say, he did not expect Natasha to apologize at all.

"I was not really in a good mood at that time, but now I am, so I will explain my plans to you gently" said Natasha as Willy seemed to be listening to her.

"My plans when I bought the business was to be the sole owner, I was not interested in a partnership, or an agreement, I just wanted to own the business, for me and me alone" said Natasha.

"Which was why when you came along with you offer, I rejected it" said Natasha.

"And I will still do the same now" said Natasha.

"It was never in my agenda to start a partnership, I bought the business, because I wanted something for my own, not to share with anyone else, and the business was suitable for that" said Natasha.

"Which is why, no matter how much you ask for a partnership, I just cannot grant it to you, and I am truly sorry for that" said Natasha as she explained, some times the best way to get someone to see eye to eye with you was to explain to that person why you do what you do.

"*Sigh*" said Willy as he sighed, he didn't know why, but now that Natasha had apologized and explained herself, he no longer felt angry at her.

"Alright, I will sell you the land" said Willy.

"Are you sure?" asked Natasha in surprise, she did not expect him to agree so easily to selling the land.

"Yes I am" said Willy.

"I have no use for a land in that area, and the reasonable thing to do is to sell it" said Willy as he sighed.

"So how much would you sell it for" said Natasha.

"I will first need to see the land's title deed, and from there I can be able to determine a reasonable price due to inflation and all other aspects" said Willy.

"Alright then" said Natasha.

"Thank you Mr. Chestnut" said Natasha as she smiled and Willy smiled.

"You are…" said Willy.

"You are a very peculiar woman Mrs. White" said Willy as he smiled at her.

"And I am also a married woman with a child" said Natasha as she smiled at him, she did not want any misunderstandings.

"Anyway, I believe that you can come over to the farm maybe on Monday, and we can take it from there" said Natasha.

"Alright then, I will see you on Monday then" said Willy.

"Alright then" said Natasha as she smiled.

"Well I am sorry, but I must be going now, I have another meeting" said Willy as he smiled and he stood up, he was running a bit late.

"Alright then Mr. Chestnut, it was nice speaking to you" said Natasha.

"Same here Mrs. White, same here" said Willy as he smiled at her once again and he walked away.

"Well that went well" said Natasha to herself as she smiled and she drank her tea, that went better than she expected, she had expected there to be a fight, which was why she choose a public place for them to meet, but it seemed that she had nothing at all to worry about, because Willy seemed to be a reasonable and sensible man.

Natasha smiled as she drank her tea and in that moment she received a call on her phone a she searched in her handbag as she picked the call.

"Hello" said Natasha.

Happy new year everyone!!🥳🥳🥳I hope that your new year will be filled with love, joy and peace and everything else that is good, and enjoy your day and the rest of the year!haha

Chapter 133: Father in law

"Hello" said Natasha as she picked up the call on her phone.

"Oh Natasha, hello, I am sorry to disturb you early this morning, but something that I cannot handle is happening on the farm right now" said Chloe as she sounded very panicked.

"Alright Chloe, breathe, just breathe, and calm down, and tell me what is wrong" said Natasha as she could tell that Chloe was not relaxed at all in this moment.

"Alright, Alright" said Chloe as she heaved and she breathed.

"You see that is better" said Natasha as she smiled.

"Now gently tell me what is wrong, what is the problem?" asked Natasha as she sipped her tea, problems were bound to happen, so what was the point of stressing yourself over them?? It was better to calm yourself down and start thinking of solutions to solve your problems.

"Well Natasha, this morning I had a meeting with one of our clients who wants to purchase fresh produce from us, and everything was fun… until the client started asking for a discount, and I refused that was not in our agreement, but he kept on insisting, and the client's aura is just so strong and commanding that I felt like I was suffocating" said Chloe as she explained.

"I could not handle it anymore, so I decided to step out and call you, because I don't know what else to do, the client is still here" said Chloe as she sighed.

"Alright I see" said Natasha as she seemed to be thinking.

"Chloe, just relax, I will be there soon" said Natasha.

"Oh thank you, thank you Natasha" said Chloe as she sighed in relief.

"I will see you in a few minutes" said Natasha as she smiled.

"Okay" said Chloe in relief as Natasha ended the call, well so much for the plans she had today, she had to solve this first.

Natasha called for the bill and the waitress came along and she paid, she stood up and she walked out of the coffee shop, it would be about a 30 minutes' drive from where she was now to the farm, so she only hoped that Chloe could calm down herself and keep the client busy till she arrived.

She wondered which client would make Chloe fear like that, well she would just have to find out.

"Hey Dom" said Michael as he was talking on the phone.

"Yes hello Michael" said Dom.

"I am following Natasha right now, and she is in front of a coffee shop, she apparently met someone, it was a man" said Michael as he was in his car and all the windows were shut as his car was parked in a corner, Natasha had not gone out for the past two days, and now that she had, he was the first one on duty to follow her, then it would be Charlie and then Nine, that was how they decided their rotation would be.

"Do you know him?" asked Dom in suspicion.

"No I do not, I have never seen him before" said Michael as he too had the same thoughts as Dom, but he knew that Natasha would never cheat on Dom, she was not a woman to do that, maybe that man was just one of her friends.

"I see" said Dom as he seemed to be thinking.

"Maybe that man is one of her friends, or maybe he's a police officer" said Michael.

"Well regardless, thank you for doing this Michael, I can rest at ease as long as I know that you are following her" said Dom as he smiled, he did not know what he would have done without his three trustworthy brothers.

"You don't need to thank me Dom, you know that just like you, I care for Natasha, and I am worried about her" said Michael as he smiled.

"Ooof I need to go now, she's has just started her car, and I don't think she's going home" said Michael as he saw Natasha's car pull out of the parking lot.

"Alright then Michael, I will talk to you later" said Dom as he smiled.

"Same here" said Michael as he smiled and he ended the call as he started his car and he followed after Natasha, he wondered where it was that she was going.

"Oh thank Goodness you are here Natasha" said Chloe as she sighed in relief as soon as she caught sight of Natasha who was walking towards her.

"Haha Hello Chloe" said Natasha as she laughed, she found the way Chloe always panicked funny.

"Why are you laughing?? Is there something on my face??" asked Chloe as she rubbed her face.

"No, no you are perfectly fine Chloe, it's just that, you panic in such a funny way" said Natasha as she laughed.

"Oh Natasha, I wished it could be as funny to me as it was to you" said Chloe as she sighed and she shook her head.

"But I just cannot help it" said Chloe, this was just how she was, she panicked easily, and she did not like that about herself.

"Well everyone is different, that is just how you are, and you don't need to change that at all" said Natasha as she smiled.

"Thank you Natasha" said Chloe as she smiled at Natasha, that was why she loved being friends with Natasha, she always made her feel better about herself, and she never judged her, which Chloe really appreciated.

"Anytime" said Natasha as she smiled.

"So where is the client?" asked Natasha as she looked around.

"Oh well he is at the storehouses, he is still requesting for a discount, he said something about being a regular client and that he has purchased from his business before, and he was usually granted discounts due to the fact that he purchased many products" said Chloe as she explained.

"Oh well, alright the let's go there now and clear this up" said Natasha as she smiled.

"Alright Natasha" said Chloe as she sighed in relief and she followed after Natasha.

"I do not know what kind of business you people are running here" came the voice of a man who looked like he was in his early fifties, some of his black hair had gone white, and he had brown eyes as he looked very angry and irritated, he had been standing here for the past thirty minutes, and the woman that was attending to him had disappeared without a trace.

"I request to speak to your owner, because this is outrageous" said the man in anger, he did not raise his voice, but the coldness there was evident.

"I am the owner Sir, and I am sorry if you have been waiting for long" said Natasha as she walked into storehouse where the man was standing and Chloe was behind her and he had his back turned towards her.

"Natasha???" asked the man in shock as he turned around and the look on his face changed from anger to utter confusion.

"Good Morning Father in law" said Natasha as she smiled, well wasn't this a surprise?? It was as if today she was destined to be annoyed, why did it have to be him of all people, but even though she did not want to, she still had to be nice to him.

Ernest Jr White, also known as Dom's father, Joy's Grandfather, the only son and child of Ernest White Senior, and well he really did not like Natasha at all, just like the others, he had not believed her, and he had accused her of something she never did.

"That is your father in law??" asked Chloe in utter shock as she never knew this.

"Yes he is" said Natasha as she turned to look at Chloe and she smiled, this was not the time for fighting, they were here for business, and things should be handled professionally.

"Oh please forgive me Sir, I did not know" said Chloe as she looked very apologetic, she could not believe this at all.

"That is alright" said Ernest as he looked at Chloe and he calmed down himself as he went back to his normal self, which was serious and cold.

"What are you doing here Natasha?" asked Ernest as he turned to look back at Natasha, his only daughter in law, which he did not really get along with, not after what she did.

He was not going to be as blind as his father was, because this woman broke all their trust, she took it and she crushed it into pieces.

"I am the new owner" said Natasha simply.

"I bought this business from Mr, Chestnut, seeing as he was selling" said Natasha as she wondered why he was here, did their company need fresh resources to import or export?? Because that was the only good reason she could think of why he was here.

"I see" said Ernest Jr as he seemed to be thinking, he did not trust this whole thing at all.
