"Are you out of your fucking mind?"

The guys looked up from the lunch they were making as Isis started screaming in anger. She stormed past them without so much as a glance and grabbed a child's pair of noise canceling headphones and gently put them over Osiris' ears as he sat on Uncle's lap. She kissed his forehead then rolled her eyes as she started to leave the room.

"What the fuck were you thinking, Andrea?" She fumed as she rubbed her forehead. "Did I get you permission to cancel those orders and why are they even reaching out to you when I am the manager? NO, you listen to me. You are the assistant HOST not the manager or even assistant manager or even curator, I am, not you! You don't get to make those decisions on any grounds! I don't care, Andrea! Look get it through your pea sized brain, I don't care one fucking ounce that you have worked there for ten years. There is a reason why you have never been promoted to a higher position, you do not have ANY skills when it comes to running a museum despite you being there for ten years! The only reason you are still there is because your daddy got you that position and you are marginally okay at helping people when they get lost, that is it! No! You don't get to bring my health into this! My health has NOTHING to do with what you did! You just cost the museum THOUSANDS of money, YOU did that NOT me! I managed to run THREE GODDAMN museums in EGYPT even with my medical issues so you have NO right to try and go behind my back and make changes that I did NOT approve of! Go right ahead and call your daddy and whine to him, it won't do any good because I have physical evidence of what you did, the exhibits have happily agreed to testify that YOU denied them despite me making ALL of the arrangements for them to come show their items, and I have the emails from YOUR company email showing that you did that and you have also been emailing other museums denying working together and promoting them. I bet your daddy would love to see all those and see just what you have been up to. Go right ahead and report me, I do not fucking care one bit, I have dealt with way worse people than you and your daddy! You do not scare me one bit, oh and fyi this call is being recorded so good luck with more of your lies. Yeah try me. No, you know what, I'm done dealing with you and all your problems. You're fired, Andrea, good bye!"

A slow clap had her turning around to see proud smiles on all the guys faces while Uncle was trying to hold back his laugh. "I would ask why you still aren't napping but I got my answer," Uncle smirked.

"Can you fucking believe her?" Isis huffed. "She actually tried to overrule me and cancel THREE incoming exhibits and then tried to tell them that SHE was the curator! The nerve! And then try to threaten me with her precious daddy and bring my health into it as well! Like I'm scared of him," she scoffed as she rolled her eyes. Just as Gabe was about to open his mouth her phone started ringing again. She dropped her mouth, "She actually tattled on me," she chuckled, "Wow!" Taking a deep breath she cleared her throat and straightened her back, "Hello Mr. Mayor."

"Oh shit," Gabe mumbled as Luke quickly put his hand over his mouth.

"Yes Sir I did use foul language towards your daughter but she also used it towards me and I suspect she did not tell you the full amount of information as well. No Sir, she used her own company email and tried to overrule my decision in bringing in three exhibits that would have profited the museum threefold. Yes Sir I do have evidence, I record everything. No Sir I do not accept your apology," the men's mouth's dropped at her statement. "Well Sir, you have done nothing wrong, your daughter has. She has tried to sabotage my work since I arrived and took over. She refuses to accept the fact that I successfully ran three museums in Egypt and frequently makes comments about my health, despite the fact that I can still run the museum and handle all the paperwork from home. I have proven myself time and time again and she has done the bare minimum in her position. Well, I had exhibits coming in to honor the anniversary of the Holocaust coming all the way over and even found some survivors that were eager to talk to anyone that wanted to, I had the Titanic exhibit coming in, and a Viking exhibit agreed to showcase some of their heritage. I even had a children's science reach out to collaborate which she attempted to deny. I have given sufficient evidence and multiple reports that interactive rooms have increased profits for numerous museums. I can forward you everything your daughter has done, Sir. Gladly. Yes Sir, I did fire her because I will not risk the museum failing over her having a temper tantrum over not being promoted to the stance she thinks she deserves and threatening to call you to force me to quit. Yes Sir, I am very confident if you called the previous managers they will support my claim. Very well, Sir, I will meet you in ten minutes."

She hung up the phone and sighed, pinching the bridge of her nose. "Ankh..."

"Go, Jackal, show him exactly whose family you come from," Ben smirked proudly.

She smiled fondly then frowned, "You were supposed to meet Auntie..."

"Now you know damn well she will enjoy coming over to play with Puppy," Ben rolled his eyes. "I got him, go."

She kneeled down in front of Osiris and removed his headphones, "I'm sorry Puppy but I have to go do some work. I will be back soon though, okay?"

"Okay," he smiled. "Ankhy I make pizzas."

She beamed, "that sounds perfect. I definitely need a Puppy special pizza. It makes everything better. I love you."

"Me wub you," he smiled. "Tum on Ankhy, time wash hands make dough."

"May I go with you?" Owen asked as he stood. "As State Attorney General I can address any legal matters that may arise."

She shrugged, "Fine, why not? Might scare the stupid..." her eyes dropped to her son, "it might teach a certain someone some well deserved lessons. I'll change and be ready in just a few minutes."

He nodded, "I'll be waiting."

She quickly changed into some professional clothes and after she kissed Osiris, Uncle gently squeezed her hand, "You two don't have too much fun with this."

She giggled, "I'll try."
