"Man found washed up on Coney Island beach by a 10 year old boy and his father. The police has released some information about the victim. His name is Timothy Macclock known as Tmac or Tim Macclock. He was tortured and thrown in the water to drown. The police suspects a rivalry gang. More information to come."

I can't believe Lucious, he's so stupid. I stepped into the elevator and guess who got on right behind me.

"Cookie, please talk to me. It's been 10 days. Let's start over, forgive me?" Lucious begged.

"Better hope they don't trace his murder back to you." I replied.

"They won't. Are you going to the party?" He asks stepping closer.

I took a step away. "Of course, it's my company and I invited a few talents I want to win over. I found a girl who can feature on Jay Z album. She just parted from her group. A lot of labels are out to get her. So, we need to impress."

"We will who is she?" He asked.

"Beyonce. She was the lead singer from the girl group-"

"Destiny's child. She's from Houston." He continued.

"I added her, her sister, and an upcoming female rapper who goes by the name Nicki Minaj. They are going to blow up with or without us. I just need it to be with us." I told him. The elevator opened on our floor and I stepped out quickly going to my office. Porsha was sitting in a chair facing my desk arguing with someone. I closed the door behind me amd watched her jump up quickly hanging up. She seemed frazzled and upset not her usual cheery self.

"Hey Cookie. Your day is really light. You have a meeting in 10 minutes then a dress fitting. You can spend the rest of the day preparing for the party."

"Cool, thanks." I replied. She got up to leave but i stopped her. "If you want to talk about it I'm here."

"Nah. I'm good." She answered and hurried out. I headed to the conference room and started my day. Porsha was already in the car with Queeny, we grabbed lunch and headed to our dress fittings. Queeny looked the best. Queeny, Porsha, and I were running 20 minutes late.

When we got in Porsha went to find Beyonce, Solange, and Nicki. Queeny and Malcolm made their way to the bar. I went backstage to meet Jamal.

"Ma, where have you been?" He asked. Running around the room shirtless searching for something.

I rolled my eyes. "What are you looking for?" I questioned.

"My shirt." He replied rubbing his temples.

"It is right there, relax."

"You look beautiful Cookie." Lucious said approaching me from behind.

"Cookie, I found them. Come on." Porsha announced. I brushed past Lucious. When we got there, only the sisters were around.

"Hello, I'm Beyonce Knowles and this is my sister Solange

"Hello, I'm Beyonce Knowles and this is my sister Solange." She shouted over the music. I nodded

"Follow me." We went backstage to Jamal's changing room. "I will be right back my assistant and I need to find this other artist. Where is she Porsha?"

"Backstage bathroom live on instagram. I'll stay here." She replied.

I walked in the bathroom and saw her posing for a picture

"Hi, Mrs. Lyon. It's nice to meet you
