Tia
It was six thirty when Ryan. Showed up with men in hazmat suits.
“ Did any of you touch the envelope?”.
“ No. Sam used a tissue and took it from Jason then took it outside to the patio “.
“ Okay, Keep the doors locked and wait for me”. He said walking around the house and heading to the back. We headed out the kitchen and saw the Men picking up the envelope. Ryan was standing far away wearing a mask.They had a whole bunch of boxes with them. They took some of the powder and dropped it in a test tube.
They stood for a few minutes and then looked at us. Through the doors then looked at Ryan. I saw the guy pull out a paper and pen and wrote something and showed it to Ryan. He immediately walked away. We went to the front door and saw him heading towards us.
“ Where's Sam and where's the security detail?”.
“ What was it ?” ,He was trying not to tell me.
“ Shit. It was a mixture of Anthrax and Cyanide in powder form. I need to get Sam and the other guy quarantined to make sure they didn't inhale or accidentally touch the powder”.
“ Sam's in the washroom,in the guest room”. He walked past us and headed into the house. I showed him the guest room,and the door was open. He walked over to the Bathroom door and knocked.
“ Cyanide or Anthrax?.” I heard Sam ask.
“ Both” ,Ryan said.
“ I figured it was one or the other. There's only one person that I know has access to that type of stuff and it's Simon. If I leave here you need to get some more of your guys to watch Tia ,Allie and their friends until Jason and I are cleared “.
“ Okay, I'll make the call now”.
I looked at the others. My mind was going a mile a minute. What would have happened if Dominic was here?, Mia and Gideon?. Richy and Maya?. Mom Dad. Oh god. I need to end this Once and for all.
Dominic
I didn't want to leave her to deal with this alone but I had to. I spoke to her and she sounded normal as can be. Shit. I missed her already. We were on Collins island. He assured us not even his ex wife knows about it. I was playing with the kiddos building sandcastles.
Gideon was asking for her and I knew he wanted the tit but we were able to pacify him. I couldn't help but be worried about her , I called Ryan and he assured me everything was going as planned.
We had the internet here ,only difference no phone that could lead anyone here. I had used a burner phone to call her. By Wednesday I was chomping at the bit. Today was Friday and I was desperate as fuck, I missed her more than I thought I would. It was raining so we were in the living room watching the news. The kids were playing.
I wasn't really paying attention but I heard A&C global so I turned it up. A&C’s Largest warehouse, went up in flames burnt to the ground. I looked at Bennett and he looked at me. “ Naw they wouldn't “
He said, In my mind I knew she did that shit and I hoped she didn't leave any traces. Their company Value was dropping, Investors were pulling out and Customers were taking to the internet by Storm complaining about A&C policy and how much they've lost due to the warehouse fire.
This woman,this was her doing. I hope I never piss her off to the point where she comes after my ass like this. I went over to Collins office and called her.
“ Hello love “ ,She sounded happy.
“ Happy to hear my voice or happy because their life is crumbling?”.
“ Both “ ,I could tell she was smiling.
“ Dominic, something happened a few days ago”. I sat up
“ Tia ,Did you get hurt?”.
“ No Dominic. Thankfully no one got hurt or it would have been bad”.
I listened as she told me about the anthrax and cyanide. She was worried about what would have happened if we were all home and if Sam hadn't been there. Because we wouldn't be suspicious about an envelope as we had received Many envelopes like that and thought nothing of it.
“ Please be careful, love. I don't want anything happening to you. I Miss you more than you can know “.
“ I Miss you too Dominic. I miss my babies too. Please don't tell them or they'll be worried. I told you because , I've never hid anything from you and won't. Just give me a few more days then you can all come back home okay “.
“ You have six more days”.
“ Thank you.I love you Dominic “.
“ I love you too”.
I sat there lost. Melinda was really pulling out all the stops. She intends to kill my wife and won't stop until she's dead. I hoped Tia knew what she was doing.
Tia
I had six more days to get this shit under wraps. We were sitting in the living room. And monitoring A&C's shares and they're profit was dropping.
“ Tomorrow we start buying shares “.
Saturday morning Jess, Amy, Cassie, Mel and Tatiana left . They were going to buy the company shares in their names then transfer them to me . But we needed the board of directors to vote for a change of CEO and that's where the Shares came in.
Melinda
This fucking Bitch refuses to die. The idiots Dad gave the job to failed. they left the house before they got to her. That meant someone tipped them off. Even when they went after them they failed and the man said the two people he sent got killed. I guess I underestimated the bitch. Apparently one of the top men in the contract world was protecting her so that made me inquisitive. So I had someone dig up her information.
She was the only child of the Jaques family. I thought Alyssa was Collin's child. I read the article,she was kidnapped, raped and Beaten which was ordered by Alyssa. Such a dumb bitch. Attempted murder. Alyssa was dead. No fucking way?. So she can kill well. I guess this Bitch has finally met her match because I was worse than she was.
I knew my father would do anything for me so I kept reminding him of his promise that Dominic and I would get married. That's when he told me about the plan with the Anthrax, however,that didn't work out either. A few nights ago we were woken in the middle of the night, the security guards called telling us the Warehouse was on fire. Dad rushed over there but it was gone,burnt to a crisp.
I knew the company would take a blow from that. My first thought went to her but the firefighters ruled it out, it wasn't Arson. I looked at the pictures and saw it was faulty wiring. For the past two days I've had to put my revenge on her on hold to help Dad take care of the company business.
That warehouse held an inventory of more than one million units and the cost was close to a billion dollars. It was storage for multiple big and small companies and now they were on our necks. The customers of those companies were lashing out against us. We made an official public apology however that didn't help.
We were on the fast track to building a new storage facility however the investors were pulling out and the company share and value was dropping and dropping fast. I walked into my fathers office and showed him the recent results. I sat down and looked at him.
“ The company shares and value is dropping by the hour. We already have Four loans and the bank's have already called. They're saying we need to repay the loans or they'll foreclose. The directors are grumbling saying we can't recuperate from this ”.
“ We'll have to start selling shares. We'll have to sell the houses, the cars”.
“Dad No”.
“ Melinda, it's not up for debate. Greystone incorporated wants to buy us out. Anderson called me yesterday”. He shook his head.
“ Dad just give me a few days please “
“ You can come up with one billion in a few days?”.
“ That much?. Maybe we can buy some time by paying off Small amounts” ,I was hopeful.
He turned his laptop towards me and I read the emails. God this was a nightmare. I have lived a royal life ever since I was born,I can't live like normal people.
“ Three days,you have three days Melinda and if you can't then we'll have to use our savings to repay the board of directors and we'll start selling shares “.
“ Thank you dad”.
