A Life Less Than Ordinary

Daphne and Charles Grey

Grace
We finally have our new children living in our home. We put them close to our bedroom and we changed the bedrooms out from Christian and Elliott's so the children have their own room and decorated just for them. Daphne is crawling so we hired the decorator that Jane had to childproof and entertainment areas are easily accessed. I never thought of how much more comfortable it is not only fir children, but people with children can be assured of their children's safety. We have a welcome to the family party.
Kate
Elliott and I have been living together for a while and he finally asked me to marry him. He asked mom for my hand in marriage and we were going to tell our parents, but we found out about Elliott's aunt being killed and it wasn't the time to tell them. But two new siblings being added and a party will be the perfect time.
Elliott
Kate just turned 21 and I felt it was time to propose so I asked Jane and she laughed and asked if she was going to walk Kate down the aisle as well.
Jane
I then remembered that the trust funds are going to be released to all three of the children soon. 2.2 billion dollars each. Eloise made sure to put everything in the accounts as I asked then set up auto pay into the accounts. Eloise and Gabriel have moved out if the Steele home and I am thinking of creating a place that can help pregnant women to get away from abusive husbands. I haven't decided yet. Maybe I will let the children have it. After all it is supposed go to family so it will always belong to a Steele. I call the attorney and talk to them about my will. I guess I already left them the house in the will. I miss Charles and Daphne, but I need to allow them time to adjust to their family and new home. I am going to the party for the welcome to the family after the adoption was pushed through. Three of my staff are now over at the Grey home living there as well. They were the children's mannies and nanny. All three are qualified as bodyguards as well as childcare professionals. I added a new company to my huge list of companies. Kate is doing pretty good at running the Seattle Steele Industries. Anastasia has built her own company and bought four more companies. Christian is in a part owner of the first company, but the others she went her own way and now she has a thousand employees working for her. She also hires homeless and low income people to get them working and earning money. They also get trained and she supplies all clothing and in some cases she gets the places to live as well. Caren is in the big building and they keep both shelters going. She has staff and Shelly us doing a lot of work as well. She apparently got married to a policeman David Lane. He met her at the homeless shelter when he brought a few people in from the cold.

Both Charles and Daphne were well cared for by Jane and our new staff that Jane had taking care of them as well. It made the transition easier for everyone. Well except Jane and the rest of the staff who doted on both children. I am very thankful to Jane and to the rest who helped us during this difficult time. The children needed treatment and got it while in Jane's care. They are now a healthy weight and eat everything. They love snickerdoodle cookies. I had no idea what they meant when they asked for them at first. Grace told me that Christian's housekeeper who is married to his head of security baked them for him and he brought them to his siblings at Jane's one day as he picked up Anastasia so she could check out his new home on the sound. I think they are nearly attached at the hip by now. She has surpassed what we thought she would with her projects as she call them. She lives in one of her buildings, I visited it once and omg it is like an oasis in the middle of Seattle. You can see it at night and day. It was if the perks of buying the companies inside it. She got the building and the apartment. It took a year to recoup the expenditures for it, but the companies tripled their profits after she took over.
Anastasia
Christian insisted I come to the party welcoming Charles and Daphne as Grey family members and his siblings. I don't know if it is a good idea after all Sarah his girlfriend has already made some comments about us spending too much time together. She tried to set me up with her cousin, he was a huge creep and gold digger. He won't stop calling me. I blocked his crazy ass. Jose Rodriguez and Sarah Rodriguez aren't to be trusted by any means. Sarah actually accused me to be after Christian fir his money, I laughed hysterically and asked her if she knew who my mother is? That is when she gave my number to Jose without my permission. I told Christian and he had a word with her about giving my number to anyone at all. Then I asked how she got it to begin with.
Sarah
Christian was angry about me giving Anastasia's number to Jose and I told him that she was around him too much and I thought she should find her own man. He agreed that she should find her own man, not me handing her number out to just anyone without asking first.
Christian
I ask her how she got Anastasia's number anyway. I didn't give it to her and it wasn't laying out for her to find. Then I realize she must have gotten from one of my family. She said she got it from Mia. I have to talk to her about giving out others phone numbers without asking first. Tell Jose she isn't interested in him. She is still building her company and he wants more than she wants to give to anyone right now. I do believe she already told him this and he won't take no fir an answer. I have plans for tonight so you need to find something else to do. I am not bringing her to the party at my parents house to welcome Charles and Daphne. She made some comments that my parents overheard that upset them terribly. She felt they were too old to adopt any children even if they are their niece and nephew. My parents heard this and asked me not to bring her to the party. I am about to break it off with her anyway. She keeps asking me to buy her things like a home an expensive car. The ten carat diamond ring was bothersome, but insulting my family was what tipped the scales. I have stopped taking her out in public after she called and tipped the paparazzi where we would be at and I caught her. Well we didn't attend that event and they stopped believing her after that. Talk about a huge fight, she kiss ass for a week after that. I gave her one more chance. Stupid fool that I am. The sex was decent, not to write home about though. I keep expecting a pregnancy scare, but I know something she doesn't think I do. Her chances of getting pregnant is ten percent. Add to that I use condoms and she supposedly is taking the pill. I doubt she is though. I use the spermicide treated condoms they cost more, but it saves headaches of a pregnancy later. But nothing is a hundred percent.
