"Mr. Andrew, bad news." A shaky voice came.
"What? What happened? Which bad news?" Old man Andrew folded the newspaper. Diana listened carefully.
"The company has been forcefully shut down. In short, there is a case in court right now as am speaking." The voice of one of the workers came in. Old man Andrew dropped the newspaper. Diana gasped. Roderick who had just woken up thought he was still sleeping and is dreaming. So he closed his eyes and pretended to continue sleeping.
"What?" Old man Andrew was shocked.
"Naysa Haven has filed a case claiming that the company legally belonged to the Haven's family. Under the guidance of the Grant's, all the evidence has been gathered and the company forced to temporarily shut down. As if that's not enough, the former Caskeys hotel which weny down in flames is also said to be the property of the late General Henry Haven. That means, if the claims are true, the Caskeys will have to pay back for the loss." The caller said. Old man Andrew remained quiet, trembling with both anger and fear. Something that the Grant's had a hand in, it would be difficult to hide the truth.
"That means, the Caskeys may owe the Haven's millions of money, probably even trillions."
"What?" Diana shouted. Old man Andrew's blood pressure went up an he fainted while still on the call. Diana didn't have to react but continued talking. "Grand pa is that true? You better wake up and tell us the truth. And don't even think of fainting this quickly. Grand pa! Grandpa? Huh! Don't even think of dying. I swear you have to handle all this." Diana shouted madly while shaking old man Andrew.
"Diana will you stop? He is unconscious already. Instead of seeking medical attention, you're there shouting." Roderick was already standing beside them.
"You stupid thing, don't even think of protecting him. If he dies now, no one will stand in court and defend us!" Diana shouted.
"We will get a lawyer instead." Roderick said.
"Will you... Will you shut your filthy mouth? Right now the company is shut down, and we owe the Haven's millions of money. Are you dumb?" Diana shouted.
MEANWHILE: EMERALD CASTLE
Jemmy has been restless since he came back. He was worried Naysa would still be angry with him. When he heard the cars hoot, he immediately got out.
Naysa has been in a bad mood when Hank picked her up. Though she tried acting cool, Hank could see she was angry. Hank had been told the story of the Caskeys and the Haven's. When Naysa was sad and at the same time earger to prove that her father wasn't a useless man, Hank had used that opportunity and went with her to file up the case after sending his men to gather all the information he needed. All this happened in a matter of minutes.
When she got out of the car, she saw Jemmy standing out of the house looking at her. She ran into his arms.
"Sweetum, why did you have to leave?" She asked. "Today Hank helped me file a case against the Caskeys."
Jemmy felt bad. He thought he was the one to help her with everything but he was too much into revenge that Hank handled such an important matter.
"Am sorry I went over to country LA." Jemmy hugged her tight.
"It's fine." Naysa said. You haven't said hi to your brother yet." Naysa said. She didn't know Hank was already in the house.
"He's in already." Jemmy replied. "I really have to make up to you for disappearing."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier about Phil Caster? Am supposed to know everything about you." Naysa said.
"Am sorry I thought you would be angry." Jemmy said, leading her into the house. They spend the whole day in the kitchen with Naysa being the teacher while Jemmy was the student. The camera man was standby, recording videos and taking pictures of the couple. By the time night came, Jemmy's face was full of floor. Naysa couldn't help laughing out. Stenson on the other hand was really dying of laughter. Naysa led him to the bathroom and helped him wash his handsome face
Meanwhile,
At Polar hotel.
Marina was busy the whole day since she was told that some important person booked the hotel for a party the next day at night. She was not given any further information on the person. So she kept making the arrangements. By the end of the day, she was too exhausted to go home. She decided to see stay in one of the rooms since the next day's work was to start earlier. She had to finish all the arrangements before end of the day. Besides, the important person world be coming to inspect the whole hotel.
That night she had dinner with one of her friends at the hotel Erin Peter who was her only close friend at Polar hotel. Instead of having dinner at a private room, the had their meal at a random table where they felt comfortable.
"Marina, who is the important guest everyone is talking about?" Erin asked.
"Actually I don't know. The manager didn't give me much information about whoever it is. Besides, I have spend my whole day busy. So I can't guess." Marina said.
"I was thinking, if there really is going to to be a party at night, why don't you invite your sister over?" Erin said.
"I'll try, but I don't think her man will allow her spend a night out." Marina said.
"I don't really mean she should be at the party. But you two can still be together in your office. Besides, I doubt if someone can deny you the chance to be with your sister."
Marina had also thought of inviting Naysa over. After all she would be bored here alone. She accepted Erin's idea which was a reinforcement to her previous thought.
Livia walked in with the miserable Roderick who had been shocked from the information he heard earlier. The new had been reported and published in papers. Marina had not gor wind of it because she was busy tye whole day. Besides, Naysa had not told her anything.
"Is that Roderick? He still have the energy to walk comfortably after what happened?" Erin asked, biting in her meal and later licking her sexy lips.
"What happened?" Marina looked at Roderick and Livia, then back at Erin.
"You're behind the K nation news right? The Haven's file a case against the Caskeys. I later heard that it had been confirmed James Caskey was the one who shot the general. Your sister I really a brave one." She explained.
"You mean? When did Naysa do that?" Marina was shocked.
"Earlier today with the help of the Grant's, Hank Grant to be specific. That what the rumors say." Erin explained.
Livia saw Marina and came to their table in hand with Roderick whom Marina could see he wasn't in the right mood.
"Roommate you are here." Livia greeted them happily. Marina had a bad feeling towards Livia but didn't show it anyway.
"Mmh. How are you and Roderick doing?" Marina smiled softly. Roderick felt that she was just really mocking them.
"We're good. Will you and Naysa be present tomorrow night?" She asked.
"Yeah. Why do you ask?" She asked.
"So we can have a toast as roommates and close friends."
