That's Not Stalking

Lanre smiled at him and asked him to carry on with what had brought them to the bar. Ebube shook his head and blew out some hot air from his mouth. He studied Lanre’s facial expression and took note of her body language before he went ahead with giving her feedbacks. That was the reason they decided to meet here. He told her that he sure got the Governor’s wife suspicious of Ify and that K was the only one who did not show any care. Lanre furrowed her brows. Then she shrugs and relaxed back into the chair. She asked him to give her every single details of what happened.

“Well, I was able to enter in from the gate you asked me to use. And thanks to the ID card you gave me, I was not stopped on my way in. I got your friend confused. And damn, you should have seen her face when I mentioned her failed trip to Dubai stating she had planned it. Her facial expression then was enough for me to pick on that she’s not actually innocent. She did ditch Dubai for someone. I think she’s having a secret affair”. Ebube said. Lanre only nods her head and asked him go carry on.

“You said her fiancé won’t be there, but he came. He asked her if I was her ex. She told him she does not know me. Well, I had to stand my ground pretending to have a relationship with her. He asked me to leave and to never show up there. According to him, she would never see me again”. Ebube said. Then licking his lips, he made a remark.

“She’s kinda hot, you know. If you won’t agree to be my girlfriend, I could go for her when she gets rejected by her fiancé”. Ebube said. Lanre told him that was his business. She opened her bag and took at a flash drive. She placed it on the table.

“A video of Her Excellency, Olasile Adewale and Her Excellency Amina planning for a program, a means to embezzle money. I do not want it released now. Just keep it”. Lanre said. Ebube smirked.

“What exactly am I getting out of this?” Ebube asked her.

“Free shipping, no custom charges on your containers”. Lanre said to Ebube. He chuckled.

“I believe you. I always knew there was something about you back then in school”. Ebube said. Lanre asked him if he was stalking her. He shook his head.

“We were in the same school, it’s only a given that I see you everyday. That’s not stalking”. Ebube said to her. She nods her head.

“I will speak to a friend of mine in the senate, he will help out with that and ensure you do not pay custom fee for your goods”. She said.

“Instead of that, let’s make it this way. If I am able to pull through with all these for you, I would like to be given control over the western region in supply of electronics”. Ebube said.
