Our extended family have moved in around us and we are growing in numbers. Debra Davis was an excellent addition to our family. She is an attorney with her own firm. She also works a lot if pro bono cases. She assisted us in the adoption of our twin girl and that is how she met Sam properly. They saw each other when he was playing body guard for different clients of hers, but they kept things professional then. When she came to a welcome to the family party for our twin girls so we could thank her they started dating after that. Now they  are married, they had no interest in a big production so they did what Ray and April did and had a judge they knew marry them.

I started buying companies at 18 while attending college and found someone who was great at identifying companies we could make into more profitable in six months. We are a good team, Roz Bailey has the same kind of eye for a lucrative deal as I do. So we are working on building our small company out of a small office and two bedroom home close to campus. We work hard on all these acquisitions along with getting great grades in college. Mom and dad have invested and Ray as well, but who really surprised me was Sam Davis. We got a few hundred thousand dollars and we made it work for us. Roz and I are working hard and long hours and studying non stop. We barely eat and sleep. Our office is getting too small for what we have accomplished and we need to find a building for staff. Ray had someone find us a building they could install cctv cameras and security offices and security for us. We have to assure our new employees don't steal our plans so dad creates a NDA that covers everything from business and personal information. Employees have to go through a lot to get hired by us. Security is for that purpose as well. They vetted a very serious HR manager, she even scares them. Scary or not she needs to be trustworthy and she turned out to be just that. The staff we have here will be relocated to Seattle when Roz and move everything there. Within three months we have paid Sam, Dad and Ray back. Jason invested his staff into the company his best ones. I give him very good recommendations and his company Steele Taylor Security has grown and is in New York and California. He runs it all along with Ray from a small office in their homes. I am amazed at how compact it is. They do however own buildings that clients go to hire them and they also assure their bodyguards stay in shape with a complete gym and pool all the recent things to keep in shape along with boxing equipment and they have hired self defense instructors straight from military training. I asked Elliott to look at sites to build a place for GEH and tell him what I want. At 22 I have graduated and we are going to get things ready to move to Seattle. We have a New York office that was part of a company we took over along with their security. They have an excellent IT and research and development area and manufacturing. This is the best company so far. We have to go through and evaluate all the existing employees. I have our existing Hr go through everything rather than the existing Hr manager.
Ray
Jason and sent some security to set up Christian's office in New York and hire staff for it. He paid us all back with interest. He is already a multimillionaire and still working hard and he graduated with honors he didn't have time to attend his own graduation. Neither did his COO. He has paid all off everything we loaned him with interest. Carrick is proud of his sons. Elliott has became the go to guy for Seattle's construction and design along with environmental building concepts going along with the energy efficiency of the places he builds.

I am getting nice bonuses as well as Ray from sending Christian well trained men and women bodyguards/ drivers and coverts. I originally paid the guys out if my own money and Christian paid me back with interest on that money. Of course he kept track of the costs of the staffs salaries. Ray is having to teach six children how to drive and Austin is joining them. They are being taught by a defensive driver instructor. They are doing it on a private driving course. There is one thing I noticed about the sextuplets which amazed me is that Anastasia seems to be the leader of the six. Now I don't know if it was because she was with Ray all along and she was more comfortable with him from the very beginning and the others joined him later. She has seemed to lead the way for the rest of them and they follow without being told. She excels in her school and is in advanced in all her courses the others have again followed suit. She decided to learn self defense and to shoot as well. All six are well rounded in their talents. What one learned they all did except male dominated sports.

Ray jr is running around and having fun when a man arrives to talk to Ray. I just barely recognize him, it is Christian Grey his driver is standing by his car. He comes up the steps and ask for Ray and Jason. I take him into their new office in our home. I guess they were expecting him because they get up and hug him. They ask for me to get some refreshments and I go get them sweet tea and finger food. No alcohol in the home with teenagers around. We decided not to have temptation around the home.
Christian
I have a proposition for you both that could make your company global. I need security overseas and now. I will foot the bill on all travel and relocations of any people you have in mind. They can have offices in my building over there and in several countries. I also need people fluent in several languages to oversee things when needed. Several of them if you can.
Jason
I know a few people and they might know of a few others. Are you wanting them to be bodyguards or can they just be translators?
Christian
They can be both or just translators. But they must be fluent and well read.
