Once they left the law firm; Emmett dropped Simone out the front of Bridal Boutique; the bridal shop for the rich and famous. They decided to continue with Leona and Drakes wedding; even though it will be a vow ceremony; rather than a wedding. The wedding was to be held the following weekend in Rocky Valley Park. Simone thought the larger she grows with the pregnancy; the more uncomfortable the bodysuit will get.“Tiff; Mrs Walker” Simone calls out as she enters the store.Tiffany had the bodysuit and Leona’s clothes ready for when Simone arrived. Handing it to her; “the changerooms are over there” Tiffany responds; pointing to a group of small cubicles.Simone moves to the cubicles; “Does anyone else get a sense of déjà vu?” she giggles; heading into the cubicle to get changed.“Yes” Jenny Walker says with a chuckle; “Except we are getting ready for a proper wedding this time around.”“Caitie; Sandy and Beck will be here in an hour” Tiffany adds, looking at her watch. “Let’s get you

“You’ve only been on the job for 10 minutes. Did you have a massive walkout?” Emmett says, answering the phone.“Houston; we have a problem” Richard tells him; laughing. “Do you guys have a PI you use to chase things up?”“We do. What’s the issue?” Emmett asks, hoping it was something small and Richard was overreacting.“I think I know why dad only got me to be a gopher and wouldn’t let me take over from him” Richard tells him. “There are some discrepancies in the books to what was charged to the clients. I need your PI to have a look to see where the money went; into the business or elsewhere. I can only see the hard copies of invoices and quotes for any current contracts we have. When you took over yesterday; the bank accounts were closed and the operating system was wiped. I can’t chase them up myself.”“I see” Emmett says; not elaborating. “How do you know there was a discrepancy?”“I told you; I was the gopher. I go for this and go for that” Richard chuckles. It remained quiet on

The group of ten climb the stairs to the Lester Drake Media Jet and quickly take their seats. Lester had already stored towels on the plane for those wanting to go for a swim during the day. “The towels are in tote bags in the overhead lockers. I am assuming everyone is either wearing or has packed some swimming gear. If not; I am sure we can find a beach you can skinny dip on” Lester tells everyone as every set of female eyes, roll at his comment.“If you don’t already know; my name is Greg and I will be your pilot today” Greg says coming over the loud speaker. “I’m required by law to give you the safety rundown before take-off. In case of an emergency; leave me the fuck alone so I can fix it. If I can’t; I will try to land the plane as safely as I can. If we manage to survive an emergency landing; I will head to the rear of the plane and help the ladies to the emergency exit, which happens to be the door you came in. Men; you are on your own. Buckle up and enjoy the ride.”Giggling

The next morning; Caitlyn wakes up to see Lester lying face down on the notepad and pen. She gets out of bed and pulls the notepad out from underneath him; ‘pros and cons of having girlfriends to just having Caitie as my girlfriend’ is written on the top.Pros; having someone to take to banquets and balls when I need to.Cons; Not sleeping in the bed when we are in a hotel. Spending all my money on more than one girl. They aren’t Caitie. They don’t have Caitie’s Smile. They don’t have Caitie’s laugh. They aren’t Caitie. I really like Caitie. Caitie is better than them. I prefer to be with Caitie. Caitie makes me laugh. Caitie is more sophisticated. Caitie’s personality is better. Caitie has the cutest ey... ‘He must have fallen asleep writing’ she laughs inwardly.Nudging Lester; “wake up sleepy head” Caitlyn giggles.Stirring, “what” he croaks, rubbing his cheek where the pen left an imprint. He looks at the notepad Caitlyn is holding and blushes; “I must have fallen asleep” he whisp

“Hi Les” Simone says stepping onto the elevator with Richard. “Why are you taking the normal elevator?”“Maintenance are doing scheduled repairs on the private elevator” Lester says with frustration in his voice as the doors close behind them. They had barely begun the decent to the ground floor, when there was a jolt and the elevator stops dead. Everything turns pitch black except a red emergency light flashing in the small space.“What happened?” Richard asks, looking around him. He knows what to do in these circumstances; however, he had a fear he couldn’t control. He was fine; until he was locked in a confined space. The other two hadn’t noticed, he was starting to breath heavier, taking deeper breaths to calm himself down.“Fucking maintenance” Lester screams, pushing the button on the emergency speaker. Waiting a moment; ‘that’s odd’ he says to himself as no response comes back. ‘There is always someone manning the station.’Pulling out his phone; he turns the flashlight on befo
