Heartbreak Hotel

A Trip To The Penthouse

Ariana
I was able to get a private tour of the penthouse at the new Heartbreak Hotel. What I thought was the hotel manager, wasn't. He allowed me to enter the penthouse and he locked us inside. I am now pretty scared because no one knows we are up here and all alone. He starts toward me and I suddenly recall all dads training out if nowhere. I allow him to get exactly where I want him to get and he grabs me and I get in position to do the thumb in his eyes position and knee him in the groin area and he goes down and I use my spike heel to hurt him further. I unlock the door and run to the stairs as I dial 911 and then call dad. I realized who the guy was. He was my lurker and had disguised himself as the hotel manager in a very realistic face mask. They pulled the latex skin off his face. I had never known his name until now. Jack Hyde. He was supposed to be my trainer at SIP but he left the company before I started working with him.

Really you have to be more careful. If you hadn't been trained in self defense there is no telling what this guy would have done to you. Apparently he was watching you for some time and you didn't tell me about him. He probably got your address from SIP off your résumé's. Both of your addresses because both if you interviewed for that job. Anastasia had you noticed anyone following you?

Anastasia
I had and I put a stop to it when I kicked him between the legs. I told him the next time I saw him he would go to the hospital and pray to die. I didn't see him after that day. We got his photos but he must have been wearing a mask that day too because we couldn't get an ID on him. Jose jr helped me try to get a facial ID on him but it came back inconclusive.

Christian
I am very unhappy about what happened in the penthouse and that one of my employees was nearly a rape victim or more than that by the hands of an employee from SIP who was fired before we purchased the company. Then I find out he was living in an apartment on her floor in her building and was lurking in the hallway to see her. He moved into the apartment after she interviewed at SIP so he knew she lived there. He had access to all the HR résumés for jobs so now we hope he stays in jail and goes to prison for a long time. We will need to go through the résumé's to figure out who else he was stalking like this. I tell Taylor to get someone to look deeper into Hyde's background because we missed something. Ariana then told us about Elizabeth Morgan being arrested on her first day and everyone was supposed to keep quiet about it. She was the head of HR and the one who interviewed her and she thinks that she might have interviewed Anastasia but couldn't be sure of it. Roach hid those things from us. What else did he hide from us? We will definitely find out. Ray Steele told me that he apparently had targeted both Ariana and Anastasia but Anastasia found him following her and she kicked him between the legs and told him the next time he would be going to the hospital. Apparently both girls were trained in self defense. There was no damage done to the penthouse. Bit there was damage done to a pair if expensive spike heels and Hyde. Ray told me the heels were not to be replaced by anyone because it will teach Ariana a lesson she needs to learn. The lesson is not to trust strange men and never go into a hotel room with a complete stranger no matter who they tell you they are. I agreed with him wholeheartedly. I would hope Mia knows this as well. She has security watching her all the time though. I was shocked to see her dancing with Ethan Kavanagh and they were talking for a long time before she came back to the table. Kate Kavanagh was trying to get me on the dance floor after I just rid myself of the auction winner. I ducked her and went back to my family's table. I told Roz we need to discuss a few things about SIP on Monday first thing. She said okay and didn't ask any questions.

Roz
Word gets around fast and I got word of what happened in the penthouse. Security got word and I got word from security to stay put u til everything was secure before leaving. Of course I demanded to know why. Carrick and Grace headed up there to see if medical treatment was needed and Carrick to give his legal advice to Christian. Gwen said that it seems an ex employee was involved in the kerfuffle. I laughed at the term kerfuffle.

Gwen
Hey it's a real word look it up. I just shake my head and ask security if we can leave yet because I am exhausted? He calls someone and they are letting us leave finally. Whoever it is I hope they get what they deserve. Apparently it was an attack on one of the female employees and she handled it and got the police and her father involved. Okay I look around and wonder whose father is missing. Then I see Mr Steele talking to Christian with a serious look on his face. He isn't happy at all and neither is Christian. They both look at one of the twins and I notice her crying and shaking. It looks like Ariana, Anastasia is standing there talking to Ariana and it looks like she is trying to calm her down but it isn't working.
