A Life Less Than Ordinary

A Big Family

Anastasia
I watch as our last set of twins get their college diploma. After four sets of identical twins we stopped and Libby and Laura. Mom lived until they turned one. She was helping out at the homeless shelter and had a heart attack and for some reason they took their time getting an ambulance dispatched to the shelter and mom died before the ambulance arrived. An investigation ensued. Let's just say when a billionaire dies at a homeless shelter because an ambulance five minutes away can't make it for over an hour. That makes headlines. Just like the headlines about Jose Rodriguez being killed for bing a jailhouse snitch. Those four actors guys were let off for the kidnapping and decided to spread word that Jose snitched on a few of his so called buddies. Carl really used everything he learned to get him and his three friends out of jail and their record expunged. I don't know who or how they did it, but they somehow disguised Jose as a woman laying in his cell. Let's just say some if his cell mates thought he was fair game. My eight children miss Jane and so does Adam he might make it to 89 just like Adam Steele did. He is retired now and enjoying his great grandchildren now. His favorite is Jane Christian Jr and Emma's daughter. Carl Brooks actually made amends with us. He helped save us in the end. Christian put him to work at one if his movie studios. He is doing great and hasn't fell for a scam again. Adam  and Gabriel are working for my company. Christian Jr is working for GEH alongside his brother Jason. Constance and Celia are doctors now.
Elliott
Kate and I adopted a family of four children who lost their parents to a car crash. There family wanted nothing to do with them. We had to rename them fir safety reasons, so Elliott Jr the 6 year old who was hospitalized for two weeks due to malnutrition. Their parents left them home alone and failed to tell the neighbors. Eloise Anastasia Grey was 4 and had to be in the hospital for a week. Alicia Grace 2 was in the hospital for a week and the two month old baby boy Adam Carrick Grey somehow was well nourished and clean they kept him two days. Adam Forest thought if Elliott and I after Kate's third miscarriage. At first she was hesitant, but went to see the children and we were helped to adopt them by some very kind people. We are watching as Adam gets his college degree along side his cousins. My twin's Deidre and Dawn are sitting watching and trying to keep their twin boys happy. They married twins who own The Cooper corporation. They love competing with the Steele's and the Grey's.
Mia
Gregg went into the security business and is pretty good at it. I decided to become a general surgeon. Jason his father gave his life saving a small child from a car crash that caused a chain reaction before he could get both of them cleared. Someone was able to take the baby to safety because he covered the boys body with his. Jason died within moments from his injuries, but he saved that boy. Gail was distraught, but held her head high and proud the day he was buried in the Grey family graveyard. We gave them three biological grandchildren and we adopted the boy he saved. His new name is Jason Taylor. He is a great addition to the family. Gail held him at the funeral he is now in high school and Gail is with her beloved husband in the grave beside him.
Adelaide
Thank God my children are grown and have homes if their own. Ethan and I decided to retire and turn over the reigns to the children. Kate has as well. Elliott, Christian, and Anastasia all of us hood controlling interest in all our companies. We travel a lot and check on our international companies. I love when we surprise them it is amazing and fun to watch as the Grey and Steele family walk in the place in tourist clothing and very few know who we are. When they realize they tried to have the owners arrested . We tell them they should always know the owners of the company on sight no matter the clothing.
Gregg
Dad dying was a hard pill to take, but seeing the young boy he saved helped me get through it and adopting the little guy seems like fate took away and gave at the same time. My security company is one if the top companies in the US because my dad helped me to get it there.
Christian
I kiss Anastasia as we watch our last kids are about to start their lives. I just wished mom and dad were still here to see them. Carrick was taken hostage at the hospital by a drug addict looking for drugs. When dad couldn't access them fast enough he shit and killed him. Mom died a year later. It was like she missed him so much that she mourned herself to death. Anastasia told me later that mom kept the fact she had incurable cancer and had been told she had six months left to live. She made it a year.
Adam
I love living in the old Steele home and hid the billions from that ransom they got together. I found the hiding place and hid it again. I left the information for Ethan, Anastasia and Kate along with all the other secrets I left for them. Carla and Raymond Steele were killed by a child of theirs. I left other information on him. Raymond the third was being hurt by his parents like they hurt Anastasia. He was brought in and he looked so much like Anastasia I checked his records. Jane tried to adopt him, but he was too far gone that he was frightened if anyone who looked like his parents. I found out that Roz Bailey was wanting to adopt and called her and Gwen they met with me and Raymond the third. He is now a child psychiatrist, he excelled in it and he is in the wills. Anastasia, Ethan and Kate insisted he be given his trust fund at 21 and they got their wishes. He is in all the wills. I can console my mind that those two will unable to have any more children or abuse them.
Raymond Bailey
I watch as my family graduate from college. Roz and Gwen tried to keep it from me about knowing my real family. After all these years and missing my mothers I am strong enough to meet them. Roz died of lung cancer a year ago. Gwen died in a car wreck because a driver was texting and hit her head on. Anastasia waves at me and I wave back at her. She invited me to the after party. Adam is sitting beside her smiling at me. He did the right thing by me and came and visited as often as I would allow. We head out to the after party with bodyguards and coverts everywhere. I am going to love being part if this family I sense a feeling if calm cover me as if Gwen and Roz are touching my shoulders. Well here I go.
