Of course Howard answered the call right away! He had been anticipating Lois's call. He had already bragged to the family that Lois had gotten him a job with RBG LLC. He invisioned himself with a high power position since he was Debbie's uncle. He just knew that he was destined to have a high salary and would be rising in the firm very quickly. So he greeted Lois very warmly when he answered the call. "Hello elder sister! I have been waiting for your call! Has everything been arranged at the firm? When should I come to Fing City? Have Debbie and that good for nothing husband of hers prepared my room yet?" Lois sighed heavily and replied "I am so sorry Howard. There is no position open in the firm at this time. It looks like I spoke too soon. But I'm sure that we may be able to work something out in the future!" Debbie just shook her head and said loud enough for her Uncle Howard to hear "Tell him the truth Mom!" Howard was confused when he heard Debbie's remark. "What does

Rick looked down and reluctantly said in a very soft voice "The day after tomorrow." "What!?! How am I to find a month's worth of clothes and have them ready in just two days? Are you crazy? But of course you are! No man knows just what it truly takes for a woman to be properly dressed. But for a whole month's worth of clothes? I don't know about this..." Rick piped up "Well, I may have a solution for you. Since we are going to the capitols of Europe were fashion is a big business, why not just buy a new wardrobe along the way? You can also pick up some maternity clothes while you're at it. Since we want to keep the news of the baby under wraps as long as possible, buying maternity wear in Europe would keep the gossip down here in Fing City. What do you think?" Debbie thought about this carefully. "Well, you're right that this idiotic plan of yours would keep the gossip down here at home. But how are we going to transport all of those clothes home? The airlines restrict how

Old Wilson knew Rick well enough to know when he was happy. "I take it that Madame has agreed to the trip. That is good news. I do have some news for you about the tour. The Athens office has asked that you pay them a visit as well. With all of the uproar there, it would be comforting to do so. It will only be for a day, then I have a surprise for the two of you for a finale for the trip. If you are agreeable with the Athens stop, I will inform them soon." Rick did not care either way since Debbie was going to accompany him, so he readily agreed to Old Wilson's plan. Rick was more interested in Old Wilson's surprise! "One other thing Young Master, General Han and I agree that you should take a couple of your security detail with you on this trip. There will be times that you will be seperated from Madame and she will need protection, especially in a forgien country. We can just say that they are expected in these countries, and Madame need be none the wiser." Rick had alrea

Old Wilson had been out most of the day running errands. When he got back home, General Han was waiting for him. Upon seeing the general, Old Wilson said "Hello General, do you have anything to report?" General Han replied "Yes I do. We have discoved the spy in our midst! As I thought, it was one of the guards at the gate. I have him downstairs as we speak. Shall we go down and question him now?" Old Wilson was glad that the spy had been cuaght. As they approached the cell, the spy yelled out " What right do you have to detain me? Do you think that Silver Hill will allow this to go unpunished?" The general scoffed at the pitiful figure in the cell. "We have every right! Do you not know that Rick Green owns the developement company that built Silver Hill? And it is his company that pays your salary? Since you are the spy that almost brought harm to Madame Green, if you cooperate fully, we may go easier on you. If not, well don't blame us for being nasty!" The prisoner aske

When the Green family had declared bankruptcy, all of the family properties were held out for auction. Before leaving for Europe, Rick had asked Old Wilson to keep an eye out for when the auctions would take place. Rick wanted to pick up a few of the properties as well as some of the contents. This included the Green Group Headquarters Building and the Green family villa in Fing City. Old Wilson was given the task to bid on a list that Rick had interest in and an amount for each item that he was willing to spend. In addition, there was a small apartment building that had just 12 units in it that Rick was formulating a use for. On the day of the auction, Old Wilson was ready to bid. He was determined to acquire everything that his Young Master wanted. Also attending the auction was Old Madame Green herself. Although she had no money to buy any of her property back today, she just wanted to see who did buy her things. The bank would only get enough money from the auction as to settle
