Lily’s POV

"She was better off dead. She was depressed because of you. You made her sell her body to rich men and you made all the money. She had to beg you for money."

"She begged me for money because she became addicted to the drugs you were giving her. I didn’t know you were a drug dealer because if I would have known I would have turned you in myself."

"If you would have I would have brought you down too."

"I don’t think so. I own this city hell this state. I own every judge, prosecutor and the entire police department. Who do you think built the new city and state police department offices. My donation to the city along with a few of my companions have this place on lockdown."

I didn’t care if he repeated what I said because he would never get a chance to tell a soul.

"I take care of my girls. I take care of them that they don’t have to depend on a man to take care of them. They are independent and why have one man when they have the power to have many men take care of them. Some of my girls live better than the wives. With a bat of their eyes, men drop to their feet."

He had a scowl on his face.

"This company is new money. When I took your families original company away from them they had nothing left. Somehow your grandfather and mother convinced some Asian investors to loan the money to start this business. I know you all have been turning in fraudulent records because as of two am this morning your father and his friends have been arrested for money laundering."

"How did you know..."

"I make it my business to know. Your parents made fake money because their sweet little boy was spending the real money on my girls because he is a sexaholic."

"How dare you call me that!"

"I know you are a sexaholic. You have spent over a five hundred thousand dollars on Rachel and Katie. You even stole from the Switzerland accounts knowing your company will not be able to make payroll."

"You don’t know what you are talking about."

"You see you are broke. This company is broke. You all knew the Feds were after you that’s why you tried to cut my deal in Argentina and Chile. Some money was better than none. You know your company would not have been able to finish the job."

"So why do you want to buy my company then?"

"Because I can. Money may not make you happy but it sure can make people lives miserable."

"Shut up!" He said yelling at me as if I was the child.

"That’s right your family never had manners, so why would I expect you to have any. Does the little boy want to cry? Where is mama now? Oh that’s right she is in custody too for killing Katie and Rachel two days ago."

"She didn’t kill them!" I could see Bradford turning red in the face.

"Once you found out about the dungeon you let Langston train you to be a submissive. You liked getting the attention that Katie and Rachel were giving you. My girls paid you attention and treated you like a pet and you loved it. Whatever they asked for you gave them. When Daphne found out the amount of money you spent on them, she freaked. After you left them she went in behind you and shot them. Rachel had a video camera in the bedroom and both of you were on it."

"You’re lying!" He stood up from his desk.

"Just like you and your mother tried to have Monique killed. You all thought hiring her sick deranged ex you could hurt the deal in San Domingo. She wasn’t attacked because she use to be an escort, you were trying to stall the project. With her out of the picture, you all could have won the bid and have them sign. But the first lesson in business is to always have a back up. I always have a back up."

"I will kill you if you go near my parents. Because of you, you have ruined my family. You are the cause my uncle is dead and you are the reason why my grandfather killed himself. You are the reason we have had to gravel to get what is owed to us. If you want the company, I will sign the papers to be done with this bullshit."

"Too late the offer is reneged. There really wasn’t a deal. Once everyone is indicted the company will go into bankruptcy and foreclosure. Why give you an absurbed amount of money when I can buy the building and equipment for pennies on the dollar? As of today Ricon Industries is no longer."

I turned around as I heard the door open. Four police officers walked in.

"Mr. Cole you are under arrest. You have the right to remain silent, and that anything you say can be used against you. You have the right to consult with an attorney and to have that attorney present during questioning, or an attorney will be provided at no cost to represent you." The officer said as he patted Bradford down removing everything from his pockets. Officer Thomas tossed the keys to the other officer and he put them in his pocket. I nodded as they handcuffed them.

"You bitch! You will not get away with this," he said as the four police officers that were on my payroll arrested him.

"I may be a bitch, but I will never be a pussy like you. Mr. Jung and Mr. Nakimoto are awaiting your presence and I promised to deliver you to them. You messed with the wrong people, Mr. Cole. I hoped you are all prayed up."

He growled at me as they led him out.

I looked out the third story window and looked down as I saw Bradford getting into the unmarked car and the other officer headed to the parking lot to get Bradford’s car.

"Are you ready Lil?" Malcolm asked from the front door.

"I think so. Has the deal been done?" I asked turning to look at Malcolm. He was the splitting image of his late father.

"Yes all creditors have filed for debts unpaid. They total more than ten million including undone jobs."

"Good we can swoop in at a higher price and finish the jobs. It’s a win win situation. I do want to buy the equipment at discount, when it becomes available."

"Got it, I already had it on my list."

We walked out the office as people were scrambling trying to figure out what was going on. We walked up to the elevator and pressed the down button.

"How are you feeling?" Malcolm asked me.

I pushed my shoulders back and brushed off the invisible lint. "I feel like my old self again." I smiled and entered the elevator. I turned around and watched as the doors closed on a part of my difficult past.
