I watch as they take my beloved Theodore to the funeral home. I dial Grace and inform her that her dad died while well, maybe I shouldn't tell her what we were doing. He had a smile on his face. He said he wanted to die after he had enjoyed our precious time as he teased me. And he smiled just before he died laying with me in his arms. He went that fast. EMTs pronounced him and gave me oxygen after trying to get him back with CPR.
Grace
I call Carrick and tell him dad has died and we need to go get mom and get the funeral arranged. Mom is staying strong and has told me keep together and have one of Christian's men to drive us to pick her up.
Carrick
After Atlanta and the crap that stupid attorney put Jason and Gail through to get everything resolved I threatened to go to the bar association on him. We finally had to hire an attorney in Atlanta and we found out the guy was trying to hide assets from Gail and Jason. Plus he attempted to change the will. Apparently the Charles family had filed a will and found another attorney that had been out of town. I asked Raymond to look into everything and he found quite a bit of things on this attorney enough to have him in prison for life. It amazes me what people are capable of doing to others and this attorney's paperwork was horrible and I caught a lot of clauses that actually gave him custody of the twins and the estate. He didn't know about the other attorney who called Jason before we got to the hospital and let us know not to talk to the attorney that is there now. He alerted the hospital as soon as he found out about his clients deaths. Douglas Reed was the new attorney they had hired and they filed new wills after they found out he attempted to take cash out of their accounts by using a forged power of attorney. They were alerted to the five hundred thousand dollars being transferred to an unknown account out of country. The out of country and the amount triggered an account alert. They immediately had their accounts closed and transferred to new accounts. I reported the attorney to the bar association, they had other complaints against him. I asked them about Douglas Reed, they gave him a glowing report. They recommended that we look into the car wreck, because it seemed strange that the attorney had gotten to the hospital before we did.
I had Jason call and ask about the wreck and they said the car wreck was staged in such a way that whoever had hit them intended for them all to die. Including the unborn babies.
Jason
They are looking into the wreck and think it is murder and attempted murder. Carrick was given some information that he didn't share yet. He told me that he was going to have Ray check it out further so I can concentrate on other things. Like finding out about what the new attorney 2as bringing over for him to look at. We kept the information the other attorney gave us as evidence for a bar and criminal review. I can't believe this attorney, but Carrick says it happens all the time an attorney becomes a criminal especially if no one looks closely at things or the family left aren't aware of what their family owns or has. In this case the Charles Company is well known and his assets were as well. Which made Carrick dig very deeply into where the assets were at. He told me not to sign anything for the attorney until he looked into things and he was right.
Douglas Reed
I presented the assets to Carrick Grey, who I know by reputation, I might be new to the field but I am excellent at what I do. He showed me the documents that the other attorney was trying to get mr Taylor and his wife to sign. He was also asking for huge fees for doing this. I ask for copies of everything so I can file a report to the police and the Georgia bar association. It didn't take long to have the attorney arrested. I show them the documents that I have and I froze the assets when I found out that my clients were dead and I made sure no one left the hospital with the twins before I arrived. This guy used to work with the Lincoln Family.

I am sitting in cuffs in the police car waiting for them to transport me to jail. I tried my best, but I couldn't get a thing. The attorney they brought insisted they not sign anything until they read it all through and they brought a doctor to check over the twins. They brought the sibling of the twins as well. She stayed at the nursery watching the twins and she knew who I was and wouldn't let me leave with the twins. She snitched on me when I tried to get the twins out if the nursery. Guards are now watching over the twins. Reed the attorney of record had charges filed against me. Apparently he was asked to redraft his will and file it with the courts. So I will be charges and my office is going to be searched along with my properties. They will find my connection to the Lincoln's and what Zi am still doing for them. I tried to rush the Taylor's into signing all the documents saying ai had more appointments to attend to. That didn't work, her brought an attorney with him and a doctor to check on the twins and their snitch sibling who would allow me to slip out with the brats. So when I realized I was exposed I tried to leave, I wasn't fast enough and the police arrested me as I tried to drive off in the Maserati that belonged to my client.
