Subject: From John Zuma.
My Dear Maria,
Greetings!
I have received your mail and I am not impressed by your hide and sick.
If you are not really interested in this transaction, you should come out
fully and tell me so that I can look for another serious minded business
partner. This is not a child's play. It is a serious affair.
Regards,
John Zuma.
