Chương 26: Jennifer Bands
"Yes, that's my name"
"And you say you got the money from trading stocks right" the woman in a white shirt and black skirt said, looking up from the paper in her hand and giving me an inquisitive look through her gold-rimmed glasses.
Were she not the source of my frustration, I would have spent some time appreciating the form her well-fitting office clothes presented but alas she was bitch and the only thought I had for this woman was throwing her off the planet.
"You can read right" I answered her and the frown that appeared on her face more than spoke of her thoughts on my witty reply.
"Mr Lawson you have to understand this right here is a delicate matter and that you should cooperate with us as much as you can so we can get this whole matter properly solved.
"No Jenny" I said refusing to address her with respect especially since she was married.
"There is no complicated matter here, the only problem we have here is a woman who can't accept that a young man such as I legally has such good figures to his name and lady if you keep being a cunt, then don't blame if I make a dib into those numbers and get myself a lawyer that will fry your ass and future."
My words might be rude and raw, but they got work which had lasted for over two hours done within 10 minutes.
Understanding the realness and consequences of my words the Bank manager got herself in order and did her job
"I'm sorry for the inconvenience Mr. Lawson" The older woman said standing up and following me as I walked to the door of her office.
I paid her no attention as I exited her office.
Leaving the air-conditioned office, I walked back into the bustling bank hall and I had just taken some steps away from the office when my name was called.
"Marcus"
The voice was very familiar but the manner of addressing not so.
I turned to look at Jennifer, raising an eyebrow at her, my annoyed expression telling of my thoughts.
"Look Marcus, I'm sorry about the way I behaved earlier, it's just really surprising for me to see someone like you with that much money.
I looked up your background and was just worried that you were straying into the wrong path. I'm sorry."
Jennifer looked genuinely apologetic, her remorse definitely not just moved by the fact that I had a lot of money and might be gullible so I asked a question to confirm my suspicions.
"I'll forgive you and wipe away my ill feelings for you if you can honestly tell me what made you change your mind about me"
Jennifer was taken aback by my question but after some seconds of thinking she answered.
"I realised that my ill-treatment of you steamed from your confidence and surety in yourself which I initially mistook as you being proud and arrogant."
"I see" I muttered, confirming and understanding that the confidence she had felt from me was a result of my Dominance aura.
"Good to know it's working. "I thought.
"Jenny, are you married" I asked, my question sudden and unexpected.
"Yes, the woman" answered shyly raising her left hand which had a ring.
"Shame, you have a really hot body."
My words had Jennifer blinking in shock and disbelief her mind processing how to deal with my words.
Not waiting for a reply, I turned and continued my exit.
"Goodbye Mrs. Bands" I waved.
Not caring about the reaction or thoughts of the Manager, I made my exit from the Bank of the West and stood on the roadside with a frown on my face.
While I had truly forgiven Jennifer, that didn't change the fact she had screwed up my plans and made me late for my next appointment.
Had I known I would face such hassle at the bank I would have scheduled to come here later, but well, the idea of being unable to access my money after my acct had gotten suspended didn't sit well with me.

This was the account I had woken up to on the 7th of May, Two days after my sweet encounter with Valera.
Satisfied with the gains, I had taken out $70000 and successfully invested in two selected stocks but then my problem came when I transferred $30000 to my account and it got stuck.
The bank had called me about the transfer asking me to come verify it and that was how I had ended up in Bank of the West this morning.
Ring! Ring! Ring!
Already having an idea who was calling, I sighed as I picked up the call.
"Hello"
"...'
"I'm busy at the moment, tell Dr Rachel I'll be running late but I'll definitely be there."
'....'
Tooon!
When Lucy decided that she understood my trail of thoughts and began ranting about how selfish I was, I hung up on her and let out a heavy breath.
Throughout my stay at the university, though I wasn't the smartest character, I built up my reputation through my distinct academic character and punctuality was one of them.
"Of all the lecturers to disappoint…."
Don't get me wrong with the things I knew and the means I had at my disposal, a university degree and a lecture's favour were of no significant importance to me, but that didn't mean that I should let go of my discipline.
Sure back in the future, I had let life have its way with me, but this was another chance and while I planned to take a different road, I was smart enough to know I would need some of the tools I had already built for myself in this time.
"Taxi" I called out stopping a cab but as I opened the door to get it, my attention was grabbed by the loud roar of a Ford Mustang GT passing by.
