Chapter 16: Two Million

He got out in a camel coat and gold cufflinks and smoothed his tie.
He walked up the three steps with his hands open.
"Winnie," he said. "Do you have a minute?"
"I have peas."
"It won't take long."

"Two million dollars."
"It's a very generous number."
"For what? To say it was fake?"
"To say what's true," he said.
"You were hired, you were paid, and you played a part."
"I'm asking you to put it in writing and sign it."
"I already said it in front of nine people."
"Not as a statement to the shareholders. Not under oath."
He smiled kindly.
