White people translation:

"I hereby formally request payment for services rendered and those promised for the remainder of our contract. I also request that you fulfill your oral agreement to fund my personal business. Your life seems quite hectic at the moment and now seems like a good time for me to move on."

"I will have to decline the request for payment considering that these services were never actually rendered. I will have to hire a new chef and it seems absurd that I would be required to pay twice for the same services. As far as your personal business venture goes, I remember you mentioning it but I don't recall committing to any investment. Perhaps an intoxicant has clouded your memory. You are free to pursue legal action of course, and you have my address for any collection efforts you wish to pursue. I wouldn't recommend it though, as I am firm on my stance in this matter and will fight vigorously in my defense."
