87 My Woman II (1/2)

Sky watched as the two men sat down with Dwayne looking like a child who couldn't wait to hear his favourite story...she rolled her eyes and looked around the shop. She left the two men and went in search of cloths.

Ok, then we hired some people to help us with the job at the site, we brought people with expertise with us from the Capital so we just needed labourers. We employed about fifty of them plus the ones we brought with us. Now work was about to begin when the youth leader of the village came and stopped the young boys from working, some were students so we were left with ten workers. I tried talking to this leader, but he refused to listen, he was uneducated and power driven.

We already paid all the necessary things, we paid the villagers their tax since it's their place , now the boy said we had to settle him, that we were suppose to see him first before starting work, and if we don't settle him, we wouldn't commence work. Sky brought out 15,000 and gave to him...to settle him but he laughed at her and refused to collect the money that's it's 100,000 or nothing. I was stunned. By right we weren't suppose to give him a dime cause we settled the village chief and this so called youth fee was also among.

The other forty labourers. refused to work.

Sky was infuriated, she tried to place a call to the king but couldn't reach him. She sent him a text and waited for his reply.

You should have collected the money I gave you cause now, you won't be collecting anything. She gave him the finger and walked away angrily. Come on Anton we have work to to do.

She picked one of the helmet from the ground and matched towards the tractor, the very big one that was used to level the ground, none of the students could drive it cause of the size, the workersfrom town were not there yet cause they had to lodge in a hotel in the city.

I tried to stop her but she wouldn't listen, she got into the tractor and stated the engine.

The youth leader was surprised as Sky moved the machine and levelled one side of the empty field, I got to work too with the other workers, few minutes later, the chief arrived from his house with his bodyguard and scolded the youth leader, he sent the other youth to work. When he saw Sky in the tractor, his mouth dropped, wow he said to me..I knew this woman was no joke, you should never lose her, he said as he tapped my shoulder.

In the end, we didn't pay a dime to the youth leader as the King told him everything was settled and that he shouldn't be too greedy by asking for more.

Woh...a tractor? Dwayne said with his eyes wide open....wow she's great.

Anton laughed at the look on Dwayne's face.

Boys are you done? Sky asked with her arms crossed as she tapped her leg impatiently on the tiled floor.

Yes ma'am, both of them answered as they saw her mood.

Now let's go, I already picked out some dress. Come help me pick the best outfit please.

As they got to the waiting room, while Sky went into the dressing room to change, Anton got a call from the company. He had to leave.

Sky came out, dressed in a royal blue dress, that had a peplum from the waist, that covered her baby bump. it didn't hug her much but it was beautiful.
