Christian
I asked mr David if my wife and her sister were safe and he assured me that they would be safe from their parents murderers because retaliatory means ended their lives and the others that helped them. Plus those who ordered the bombing died of old age. Paul and I breathed in relief. We already had enough kidnap threats against them and our children we didn't need any more.
Anastasia
We all went to check on all the properties dressed in disguise. Security went in first with protective gear and bomb sniffing dogs. Leila and I think that Christian and Paul might be related as well because they are both overprotective of their families even more so after the truth came out about what happened to Mia and after hearing my and Leila's real parents were killed in a bomb explosion of their home. Everything was cleared and we were allowed to check the properties out and it was amazing. We had to travel to the different locations and they were set up like the Steele home in Montesano. Safe rooms security rooms and safes in various places. We are told the safes keys and combinations are in the safe deposit boxes.
Leila
The places are magnificent and they have staff taking care of them. Paul said they were paid by the trusts, mine. We make tentative plans to go to each of the properties later for a vacation. I have to get a passport to travel abroad. Anastasia already has hers. So she got to see her other properties as well. Each property was within ten miles of each other. Our parents wanted us close to each other after they died. They died and made sure we were safe, separating us was probably the best idea they could think of to assure both of us being safe. I know I was until I became homeless. Now it makes sense to me that the Williams gave me money and told me to hide. Shortly afterward they were killed in a fiery car crash. I would have been in that car. Before we left mr David's office I got a chill down my spine and Anastasia looked like she did too as we suddenly looked at each other. I noticed an odd looking wall as we had entered the attorney's office. It was the only wall that had nothing at all on it.
Paul
Both our wives were on edge as soon as they entered the attorney's office. I could see Christian noticing it as well. I subtly looked around and got a feeling we were being watched. I notice the attorney flinch as I not so subtly ask if he was recording this meeting. We held each other's eyes until he admitted to recording the meeting and asked us to sign to agreeing to being recorded. We all checked the document and signed it. Then we all checked out the folders mr David gave our wives. He had everything written out very clearly and little or no questions needed to be asked, because everything was there and everything was already transferred into our wives hands. His bill had already been paid even for this meeting and a bonus included if he found both of them at the same time, which I found odd. Because he could have found one but held out that information until he found both. We should have brought attorneys with us. Our wives are given access codes, keys, key cards the bill paid in full receipt along with caretakers and security's salaries that are paid in full as well. It will come from the trust funds set up as soon as the twins were born.

I escort them out of the building and go back to my office knowing they will be waiting for me. My door is open and Carla is sitting in my chair not looking happy at all. Frank is standing behind her with an even worse look on his face. I tell them that I had no options in who their daughters married and they tied my hands every time I tried to change the direction of their daughters lives. I mean what were the odds that Anastasia and Leila would fall victim to the same spoiled murderous brat. Then add to it that Anastasia's bad luck led both of the billionaires becoming infatuated with her after Firestone helped save her after Grey's trees crushed her van as she was driving past his property. During the trials each girl paired up with their now husbands.
Frank Lambert
Okay I get that, but I just wished for different husband material is all.
Carla Wilkes
I hope they can keep it in their pants and stay married to our daughters. I saw all the photos of both of them with all kinds of women. Are we sure they will stay faithful to our daughters?
Derrin David
Listen we are well aware of this and we can't do a thing about it and we won't, are we clear on that?
Carla
Yes, but I don't have to like it. We have a plane to catch. Security ready?
Frank
Yes they are already in place and our teams are already prepared. We'll have a good retirement party.
Derrin
I plan on it has been too long coming. Luckily you two paid me very well. But time to cut off all contact with you both, because I have given everything over to your new counsel. Thank God. Please take the back way out and go back the way you came. Your girls are safer without you two in their lives I recommend you keep it that way. Stop following them around or they will know about it, they noticed the empty wall. All four of them did, so they know someone was watching and they were being recorded. Do you want me to tell them they were test subjects for you? If not then you will end the following of them. I removed all your cameras from the properties so you no longer have access to them. You two are truly blessed to give birth to those young ladies, but they weren't blessed having you two as parents.
