Seducing My Heartless Husband

” Ofcourse I don’t do favours for free, you have to pay a small price to get your request done.” Marcus replied.

“Did you hear that? I wonder what he will ask for this time. I still haven’t gotten over you robbing me my most treasured island last time.” Dimitri complained.

” Hey buddy, can you compare the damage I saved your ass from if that guy had sued your company. That island is nothing compared to the amount of money you could have lost when your clients lost their faith in you and business partners pulled out their investment on your company.” Marcus defended himself.

Yes, to help Dimitri he had asked for an island the two if them competed to buy but the owner had chosen to sell it to Dimitri that he looked lesser evil compared to Marcus.

Loosing to his friend, he swore to revenge and take that island back so when the chance presented itself with Dimitri in dire need of his help, how could Marcus let go of it.

He had offered to help Dimitri with the condition that he had to transfer ownership of that island to him.

Dimitri had cursed him for taking advantage of his predicament to extort him but still did as agreed because he really needed his help.

” I wonder what you want from me this time? I don’t have more islands to give you.” Dimitri said sarcastically.

” Relax buddy as your good friend, I’ll help you with a small price for return.” Marcus replied.

” How much?” Dimitri asked. It’s better if this guy was not asking for an obnoxious amount of money.

” I don’t want money.” Marcus stated.

” Then what do you want in exchange?” this time Lucas was the one who asked. He could smell a rat in Marcus words. He himself was most scared of making a deal with Marcus. It was akin to selling your soul to the devil.

” It’s very simple. I want to be the biggest investor in your new gaming app.” Marcus stated with finality. With his voice, one could hear the unspoken rule of no deal if I am not the largest investor.

If someone uttered those words, Dimitri will have to thank them for being too lenient but this was Marcus, ofcourse the sky fox must have made his calculations after predicting the success if the project to ask for such a thing .

On the ground, one could think that Marcus was being a good friend and helping out but those who knew him were aware that Marcus never invests in just any project. Only projects that were promising and could earn him quite alot would he dare invest in.

“I knew it! you will never think of anything apart from gains you old fox.” Dimitri accused him.

” Come on don’t be ridiculous, I am funding your project here remember? Besides, I am offering you a faster solution if finding investors for your project.” Marcus argued.

” You must have been eyeing my project for a while now for you to make such a request.” Dimitri said with certainty .

” You are right, I have already seen the potential of that project and done my calculations. You don’t expect me to invest in some mediocre projects and besides having me as your main investor is like a selling point for your app. You know that anything associated to me always makes a hit.” Marcus explained.

” I think he has a point Dimitri. With Marcus investing in your project, you get rid of the hassle of moving up and down looking for investors and you can be sure your app will sell if people hear it’s connection with Marcus.” Lucas advised his friend.

Pondering about Lucas’s advice, Dimitri decided to trust his judgement and agree to Marcus request.

” Okay then, it’s a deal.” Dimitri said, directing those words to Marcus.

” A deal. Expect the results in the least time possible.” Marcus assured.

“You better.” Dimitri said his voice coming out threateningly.

Chatting alittle more and knowing how each was doing, they ended the conference call.

Dimitri’s assistant came back with a suit ready and handed it to him. Receiving the new suit, Dimitri walked to the dressing room to change his clothes. A few minutes later, he appeared all changed and ready for the flight.

” Let’s go.” he said leading the way towards where their private jet was ready for them.

Boarding, the flight took off in no time.

Martina walked towards the exit of the airport and found her mother already waiting for her. She had already called a cab and had her luggage placed at the back of the car.

” What kept you so long? I thought you were just behind me all this time?” Her mother questioned her.

” I was behind you but I bumped to someone spilling coffee on his suit so I was caught up a little.” Martina explained.

” Are you alright?” Her mother asked worriedly.

” Why wouldn’t I be fine mother?” Martina replied with a question.

” Well you know how rich people can be. They’ll make a big deal out of nothing especially if the other person looks ordinary.” Her mother explained.

She had point, Martina had met such people who would drag a small issue to a scandal. But who is Martina, she usually ignored such snobby individuals, thank God the guy wasn’t that type of a man.

” Mother, don’t worry. I can handle it myself. Besides, the man was a gentleman and he did not make things hard for me after I apologized.” Replied Martina.

It was rare to find such people, who were understanding although the guy was staring at her intently such that she found it weird.

” A gentleman?” Her mother asked excitedly.

” Is he good looking?” She added.

” Mother, what are you asking? How would I know if he’s goodlooking or not?” Martina replied.

” How can you not know? You just need your eyes to see if he’s goodlooking or not?” Her mother retorted.

” Mother!” Martina’s voice had a tinge of helplessness.

” Okay, okay I won’t ask anymore.” Her mother replied smiling knowingly.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
