The Lyon For Me

Twenty

After I worked out my legs and didn't feel the hurt as much I decided I would pay Hakeem a visit. I walked in to hear a conversation already taking place "Have you ever heard of a hostile takeover" a female voice I wasn't familiar with said.

There was no answer in return but I didn't care some lady and Hakeem were planning a hostile takeover. How could Hakeem do this I mean I understand that the Lyon family had issues but this is betrayal of a different status.

This would take away any chance Jamal or the other brother I have yet to meet Andre had of being CEO of Empire. I ran out I'd his house trying to think hard about where Jamal said he would be but I was drawing a blank. Damn it!

Of all the things to forget and of all the times. I just went back to the house to see Lola playing with Lola bear. I sat down on the floor next to her "Hey baby girl where's your Daddy" she shrugged "We were going to iHOP.... Then Daddy got a sall" I frowned and looked at her slightly confused.

She made the cell phone gesture and I understood "Daddy says I need to work on that word" I laughed and kissed her cheek. I got up and walked toward the kitchen before a knock sounded at the door.

I opened it to Rochelle smiling at me "Hello child are we making progress" she asked probably already knowing the answer "Oh who am I kidding you and I both know the answer to that" winking at me. Disgusting woman.

Then an idea came to me "What if I told you that Jamal wouldn't be able to give me the money for some reason" she stood up from her spot where she was playing with Lola "And why wouldn't that happen" she said threatening me with eyes to try something.

"There may or may not be a hostile takeover happening which would really put a kink in our plans because I heard Lucious gave Jamal Empire" I lied knowing Lucious would never do that "Your bluffing" I shrugged "I might be but you can't really take that chance... Can... You" I said smirking at how unnerved I have this woman. This woman.

"Damn it!!! Lucious can't keep your sons together... I thought I taught him better" she mumbled to herself noticing my confused expression "Yes, I owned the orphanage Lucious or should I say Dwight Walker was raised in... I was his mother and because if I was ever blessed enough to get out the wretched place I made sure Dwight never knew that I actually was his mother" she said shocking me so much I was speechless.

"You thought Mia and Bethany were bad then sweetheart ask about me" she said once again turning the tables and making me quake with fear. This woman doesn't care about anyone but herself and people like that are especially hard to control or predict.

"Well let's get back on topic... If what I'm saying is true that means that Jamal could give you more... 10 million but that would only happen if you insured that a hostile takeover didn't come to pass" she narrowed her eyes at me then smirked which eventually turned into a laugh.

"Be careful darling this little bad girl thing is something I think your getting a little too good at... And I'm sure Jamal would wasn't nothing to do with you if you are... My help will come when you need it most" she said picking up her purse and phone and opening the door.

"Farewell" she said closing the door and allowing me to release a breath I was sure I wasn't holding. Lucious' mother... No wonder she acts like she does... They're kin.... Great something I'm sure Lucious will want to know.
