SECRET LIFE SECRETS REVEALED

HELLO

After Ben makes his phone call leaves the office, and informs Chloe and his Uncles he can't go with them to the hospital because of nerves.  He let's them know he will speak with Leo later about his new position, and hopefully be in better spirits later.  Chloe, Nathan, and Phillip leave the office, and all take the limo to the hospital.  They run into Camille at the hospital who is helping Leo get ready.  This is the first time Leo has seen either of his brother's since he had his heart attack.

Room of Leo Boykewich

Phil:  Leonardo, it's nice to see you are doing well.

Leo:  It's nice to see you both as well, I wish you had come to see me when I was fighting for my life.

Nate:  Leo we are sorry about that, but with everything that happened we thought visiting you after would only cause you to have another heart attack.

Leo:  Well since ben isn't with you, I assume you're here to tell me that I've been removed from the company as C.E.O.

Phil:  Yes, you have been removed as the C.E.O. temporarily.

Leo:  I guess you've been named C.E.O. in my place?

Nate:  No, he hasn't Leo.

Leo:  Well who is it, you or one of the other board member's.

Phil:  The right man has been placed as C.E.O. Leo.

Leo:  Who, you mean....

Nate:  Yes, Ben has been made the new C.E.O. of Boykewich International.

Camille:  What, Ben is the new head of the company.  That's incredible.

Chloe:  Yeah, mom it's amazing.  Isn't this wonderful Dad.

Leo:  Yes, it is I knew he said he would help, but I didn't think he would do this.

Phil: Well it must shock you.   I know that must irritate you having Ben sit as the head of the company especially since you've spent so many years grooming Ricky to take over.

Leo: That's a lie Phil, you of all people know I have always dreamed of Ben taking my place as the head of Boykewich International one day.  He's my son, and Sarah's son.  You know I never thought anyone deserved to sit at the head of the board other than him.  He's literally the direct and only descendant of both founding father's.

Camille:  Take it easy Leo, and Phil (looking sternly at him)  you do the same.  Leo hasn't even left the hospital yet, and you're trying to force him to have another heart attack.

Nate:  I agree with Camille Phillip, I think it's best if we left and allow everyone to adapt to the news.

Leo:  Before you leave, how come Ben didn't come with you.  I would think he would want to talk with me about such a huge step.

Phillip:  Why would he do that Leo?  It's clear in the past nine years he has done well for himself, and realizes he doesn't need your help to make good decisions.  As I remember most of his bad decisions stem from you.

Chloe:  Back off Uncle Phillip.  Dad, Ben had some matter's he said he had to attend too, and would be by the mansion to talk with you later.  I think he had some personal matters to fix.
