picks Ball up.
“Here we go then…”
…
“Okay… nothing we can’t deal with…”
Rynsburger signs the form required to authorize the delivery.
“Have a nice day then…” Willem stated, heading off to deliver the rest of his mail for his run.
Rynsburger headed back to his meeting disussing further plans on the Rotterdam factory currently under construction. Rynsburger opened the door to the meeting room and now had about two dozen faces staring at him, wondering what happened outside.
“End of meeting! For now at least…”, Rynsburger proclaimed loudly, while packing his stuff to head out.
A voice is heard from the back of the room: “What?? We aren’t even close to done with this!”
“I know… but more important stuff got in the way… we may or may not be in deep shit now…”, Rynsburger added to convey the importance without leaking too much info.
The attending employees decided to not further question it and just left the room.
Rynsburger then opens the letter, reads the court summons and is somewhere between confused and furious. He then heads out to the secretary:
“Frieda!”
“Yes? Mr. Rynsburger?”
“Where is Willem?”
confused “Which one?”
also confused “Wait… there’s another Willem?”
“The courier who has delivered the letter…”
“OOOHHH… Anyway… Mr. Anhultz… Where’s he at?”
“Frankfurt, sir. Presenting the Anhultz Mimas III to the public. Should be on his way here though.”
“Damn… send him to my office as soon as he gets back.”
“Will do.”
Rynsburger heads off to his office and immediately starts searching for any documents regarding the Townsend loan. Halfway through searching, Anhultz enters the room.
“I’ve been sent here. Whats going on?”
Rynsburger aborts the search and plops a stack of documents onto his desk. He then takes the letter and hands it over to Anhultz.
“Remember how Ardent bought out Townsend not too long ago?”
while reading the letter “Yes. Go on.”
“They unsurprisingly found the loan we’ve been repaying for almost a decade now. And they claim noney laundering or something… Long story short. They’re sueing.”
Anhultz puts the letter back into the envelope and chucks it towards the bin, missing it by about three feet.
angry “THE FUCK???”
“They’re reclaiming the debt immediately. About 154.000USD.”
“WHAT?? Just pay them and they’ll shut up…”
“About that… we can’t. Pretty much all of our surplus profit is currently going into the Rotterdam plant. I may be able to pluck some funds off the project to fund the lawyers and associated traveling and such, but instant repayment is a no from me…”
Anhultz definitly did not like this, especially since he was aware that Anhulltz always had payed the monthly installment in full and on time and thus had no fault regarding the loan.
Rynsburger continues with his half-finished document-scan.
“There’s some good news to it, though… As far as we should both be aware we did nothing wrong regarding paying back our loan. So we may have a good chance at winning this.”
“Are you sure about that? I mean… is there any proof to it?”
“You bet there is.”
Rynsburger goes back to his desk, adding another, much smaller stach of papers to the irst one.
“First off…”
He rummages in the pile a bit. Then he pulls out an old piece of paper, which doesn’t seem too special to Anhultz.
“…i have had a copy made of the original legal document containing the conditions of the loan. Also…”
Rynsburger divides the menaining stack into two.
“…those are the documentation papers proving date, time and amount of monthly payments going from us to Townsend. Or… Ardent, should i say…”
“Asshats. That’s the wording. We’re gonna fuck them up left, right and center. Here’s the deal. You go pluck some funds of the Rotterdam project. As much as i want to have that Factory finished, Anhultz also has to stay afloat as a company.
Meanwhile, i’ll get the lawyer stuff sorted.”
“Sounds like a plan.”
The two went to work. Adjusting funding on the Rotterdam proect was less of an this is impossible.kind of issue, but rather a this is not what we’d like to do-kind of issue.
Meanwhile, Anhultz sent a letter to McClendon & Co. Law Offices in New York requesting them to represent Anhultz.
And with the stone of legal war rolling…
@VicVictory. there you go
