He called me up one afternoon and said, “Listen, Mr. Martelli, is it okay if we deposit $14,000 in your account?”
Coming back to my story, I asked Benoît what this $14,000 was. “Oh, nothing. Listen, I asked another nine ridings, and you would be the tenth one if you accepted. It's up to you to accept or not.”
As I was saying before, I asked Benoît if there was any comeback to this. He said, “Oh, everything's legit, nothing to worry.” So I told him, “Okay, go ahead with it if there's nothing to worry.”
