Antonio Woods held his cellphone, desperately trying to explain, but the calls coming in reprimanding him came one after another like a sudden downpour without a hint of stopping.
Who the hell have I pissed off?
Work halted at the construction site, the company was trashed, projects were terminated. To make matters worse, calls came in from various suppliers, all demanding early payment and then termination of cooperation.
One must realize that for the Woods Family, payments were traditionally paid semi-annually or annually. But now, all the suppliers surged forward demanding advance payment.
This was practically a death sentence for the Woods Family who could not, all of a sudden, gather so much cash.
Left with no choice, Antonio Woods had to entreat each supplier, begging them to grant him a little more time.
However mighty he seemed in usual times, when begging others for help, he became utterly humble.
