Escape Artist

Meeting Christian

Christian
I have noticed things moved around and I ask Gail my head of household management. She has noticed things as well and thought it was her mind playing tricks on her or the apartment is haunted and we both laugh. I have security turn on all the cctv cameras once again. Somehow certain ones aren't working and the grid they are on electrically is different that the normal power source for the apartment we also have a back up generator to assure our security system stays functioning. Jason decided to find out how things were turned off. The panels are near the emergency exits near the laundry room and it would not be something we would check regularly until now. I am missing a list of inconsequential items until today. My grandfather's antique Rolex watch that he gave me when I made my first sale as a gift. We made twenty million on that sale.
Jason
I print dust the electric system and a few other areas as I ask mr Grey to show me what has been moved and taken.
Christian
He also found other things that I missed, but it is his job to notice these things. Gail can't believe they took one of Sophia's outfits that I bought her. Sophia is graduating from high school and the dress was a typical little black dress for special events. She is going to the charity event with her parents this year so I made sure they all were satisfied with their attire for the night. It is a family event and Sophia will be introduced to some influential people. My employees are all invited along with certain business associates. I tell Gail to just replace the dress and get them both something special on me. The event is in a week and things are running smoothly. Mia has her tiny little fists in recipes for the event and they are delicious so I give her the go ahead and her staff are working hard to create a glorious food selection for the night. Mom has suggested that I invite Sandra Wilson to the event and I concede although I am unfamiliar with her in person. I mostly deal with her CEO.

The finger prints aren't any of the people working in the penthouse or living in it. We can't get any ID on them at all so whoever it is has never been fingerprinted and not been arrested. Not sure if that is good or bad. It might be that they escaped being found in the act. They seemed to be able to get in the penthouse easily and knew about the way things worked on the power grids. That is not good. I had them build a compartment around it that required a passcode and a key to get into it. Only a few of us will know where the key is and know the passcode. I also put a motion detector on the exit doors that triggers an alarm in the security office along with my quarters and on my iwatch and iPhone. Barney's idea.

Dad wants me to attend an event with him and mom and I are shopping for a dress. We finally picked out dresses Elmer approved of. Elmer had been left alone and she needed an outing and I decided to bring her with us and I have to say she has good taste in dresses. Mom says Elmer is like my daughter my parents really think Elmer was a human in another life. She definitely knows bad people from good ones. We are trying on shoes when a blind woman arrives and her caretaker. The caretaker is disguised as a boy and Elmer is purring away at her and the blind woman. I had to put her in her carrier so she wouldn't get away from me. My security had to take her to the car to sit with our driver. We bought what we needed and left.
Sandra
Did I hear a cat purring?
Gabriella
Yes you did and they had to take the cat outside, it was with my twin sister and my mother.
Sandra
Why didn't you introduce me?
Gabriella
They didn't recognize me in my boys disguise. So they had no idea it was me, but the cat purred at you and I do much and tried to get to us that they finally had someone take it to the car. They bought their things and left.
Sandra
Don't you want to get to know them at all?
Gabriella
I am not ready to yet. I am just barely going to attend this event with you. We might meet them there according to security. So let's get you looking gorgeous and me looking presentable.
Sandra
I have the staff find the perfect dress for us both along with the proper undergarments and shoes and then the right jewelry to go with it all. Staff made a few recommendations for covering Gabriella's scars and I take her and the staff's word that she looks good in her dress. She has been trying to get back to a healthy weight after seeing her doctors. My doctors are trying to find a way to reverse my blindness. We will be meeting a lot of people so I hope you are okay with that?
Gabriella
I am there to assist you, so I will be polite but I am working just at a nice event in beautiful clothing. Nothing more, nothing less.
Sandra
Well try to have a nice time, security can assist me as well. So enjoy yourself and I hope to meet your family and maybe you can get to know them. They apparently never stopped looking for you. I heard four imposters came forward and tried to take your place one nearly succeeded but because of an emergency your mother and adoptive father mr Steele found out she was not you. Your real father was divorced by your mother after he tried to frame her for a crime he committed. He apparently was behind your kidnapping. He planned it prison. Well enough of sad tales let's go get some ice cream.
