Transmigrating from a zombie world to become the mecha kings wife

Chapter 29 Fake Bank Transactions

?Elsewhere on the Sunstar, a different meeting was going on early this morning. This meeting was between Esong, his secretary Dez and the head manager of the Capital city bank.

Esong who was extremely furious was going through bank transactions on a monitor screen of a computer.

The manager of the bank that had been rudely awakened form bed in the morning to deal with the general was sweating through his clothes and down on his knees.

"It was not our fault general." he struggled to say.

Esong however ignored him completely and kept on scrolling up and down with so much strength that a few cracks appeared on the computer screen.

In a testy tone, Esong asked the bank manager "What did my assistant tell you do?"

The bank manager fell to the marbled floor screeching like a pig being slaughtered. He writhed and the sweat on his body increased to a point that one would think it was raining only around his body.

Dez was worried because at this rate, the general would kill the manager using his mental strength. He had mental strength of SSS+ and he was not allowed to kill any citizen of the empire using this strength unless it was a dangerous situation.

Mental strength in the Sun star empire was accompanied by the power of telepathy. A telepath could kill one with the power of their mind so the higher one's mental strength was, the more dangerous they were classified. All individuals with SS mental strength and above were required to register with a special department which monitored them.

Not even Esong the great general and mecha king could escape could escape the monitoring.

"General, you might kill him." Dez said anxiously.

"Why should I care?" Esong asked.

"If he dies, what will happen to me? What about your wife and child? They will become children of a criminal."

For Dez mentioning Scarlet and Justin was the equivalent of a Hail Mary. If the general was willing to eat food prepared by Scarlet perhaps mentioning her could get him to regain his sanity.

For ten more seconds, Esong suppressed the bank manager and then he let him go.

The manager gasped and ripped open the buttons of his shirt as he rubbed his neck as if someone had been strangling it.

"Who did it?" Esong asked the manager, "Who tampered with my account and faked my bank transactions? For the past one year I have been sending money to my wife so that she could take care of my son and now I am finding out that she has never received a coin of that money. And yet this shows that the money has been steadily flowing out and going to her account.

So not only did you tamper with my account transactions but you also tampered with hers."

Esong did not even realize that he had naturally called Scarlet his wife when previously he would refer to her as that woman.

The manager replied in a frightened stutter "It..it..it was your mother."

"My mother!"

Esong was surprised to hear this response because of all reasons for this to happen, his mother did not cross his mind.

"Explain things clearly or I will have another go at your mind." Esong threatened the manager.

The manager got on his feet urgently and he explained, "The duchess said that we should transfer the money to a different account. She said that we should never give a single coin of the Wu family's money to Scarlet or else your family would transfer all their money and assets that we manage for them to another bank. We were left with no option general, the decision to do this came from upper management."

Esong turned the computer to the manager and he said, "Access the account you have been sending my money to and drain it completely. Send all of the money to my wife immediately."

"But...but.." The manager wanted to say something but it seemed to be stuck in his throat.

"Now." Esong barked.

"Yes sir." the manager to scrambled to send the money to Scarlet's account as fast as his fingers could move.

Once he confirmed that the money had been successfully sent, he chased the manager out of the private room. This was one of the rooms reserved for serving VVIP customers.

"Find me a new bank." Esong told Dez.

Dez had an answer already. "The Intergalactic bank has been trying to get you to open an account with them should I contact them?"

"Don't just contact them, open an account directly and send me it's details. When you are done with that, change the banking information on my work application and every other business document."

"Yes sir, will you be needing anything else?"

"No. When you are done with your tasks go home and see your family. I am sure Ian, Folsom and Cedric are waiting for me outside the bank."

As soon as Dez left, Esong decided to reply to Scarlet's message and explain the situation. Rather than text, he sent an email.

Dear wife, …he deleted and changed it to Dear Scarlet.

"Does this sound too personal?" he asked himself. He wondered why something like this was bothering him so much. When did he suddenly start caring about what she thought. She was the first to call him husband, would it be rude if he didn't address her as wife? He changed his mind once again.

"Dear wife,

These bank transactions are proof that I have not been negligent of my financial duties toward you or Justin. I have been sending money monthly but according to the bank it was sent to the wrong account.

All of the money which you had not received has been sent to you as a lumpsum. Spend it wisely."

Esong Wu

He paused and wondered what else he could say. Should he address the divorce comments or ask about her sickness?

"Should I ask about their well being?" he asked himself. "Or should I tell her to send me food regularly? I am a part owner of the Blue star and her husband after all."

So many thoughts went through Esong's mind and in the end he decided to send the email the way it was.

Ten minutes later , Scarlet changed her star net user name and he wilted.

"What is wrong with her?" He asked himself.
