On the way back from the airport, James got a call. It was from Eric Wood.“Hey Eric, I had intended to call you first. How is it going?”“Everything is okay, we...” he stopped and then continued, “Are you driving James? I can always call back later.” Eric said.“No, no it’s fine. You can talk to Lana, she is here with me.” James said and handed the phone over to Lana.“Hey Eric, how are you doing?”“I am fine Lana, thank you. I called to let you know that my daughter is to leave the hospital today and I want to sincerely thank you all for helping us through this trying moment. My daughter is out of danger now and there would be no more relapses for her. Thank you.” He kept saying thank you that Lana had to stop him.“Ohh Eric if you keep saying thank you like that, we wouldn’t know how to feel. We only did what we felt was right and you would have done it too if the roles were reversed and so thank you too for trusting us enough to let us help and for stepping up into the business li

Alisha was still thinking about the whole stuff that happened at the office today.The embarrassment, the disgrace and most of all, her assistant, Anna Davies' opposition.‘How dare Anna Davis disrespect me?,’ she thought. In the past, she used to be loyal but since they made Anna Davis her assistant, things are changing and she can't stand it.She would have to have her removed from her position as assistant manager.When she got home, she saw her dad and Mom in the sitting room having a conversation.“Alisha, come and look at this. Your father is a genius.” Kate called out to Alisha as soon as she came in through the door.“What are you on about now mom?” Alisha asked, taking off her Jacket and sitting by her father and mother.“There is this stock market, Enron Stock exchange, that your dad invested in and in the days since we have been watching, it seems to be doing really well and we are considering investing more into it.” Kate explained to Alisha.“But I haven’t heard anything

Bill Price had gotten a message from someone and he could not figure out who it was. Something told him that he should have shared it right at that moment with his friend Ryan Wane, at least then he would have had only half the problem now because a problem shared, as everyone knows, is a problem half-solved.He had just hoped that the person would stop and that will be just all there is to it, but the messages had not stopped, instead they intensified and worried him badly because there was someone watching his every move, aware of every single thing he does and he couldn’t even smell the person, talk less of seeing them.He thought about it time and again and he could only think of telling it to Ryan Wane. He just might know what to do and save Price from all this stress and threats.He picked up his phone and dialed Mr. Wane’s number and called but got no answer and so he figured Mr. Wane was busy, probably in one of those meetings or some other thing and so he decided to just leav

Everyday that passed was a day for Richard Carl to talk about his latest stock exchange thing and to everyone who cared to listen.It made him a really happy man and that was enough to convince him to invest a huge amount of his money into the Enron Stock Exchange.Kate was beside herself with joy anytime her husband talked about the rising stock market to her.“You mean it just climbed up another four percent as at this morning?! The rise is so steady and I have to say this Richard, I feel like this is the best decision we have made in a long long time.” Kate said clutching her husband.“In a long time? Think not. IN FOREVER!”Richard was like a little child with all the excitement displayed in his face. He would finally be as rich as the Sterling’s if not richer, he wouldn’t have to go to Thomas for any little thing that could be done with just a phone call.“We are…” Richard was starting to say something when his phone rang. He gave a series of responses to the person on the other

“And mom, what were you both thinking? I pleaded with you to do a thorough research at first but you believed so much in this ‘old classmate’ and now look what has happened. Dad is lying here in the hospital with the right side of his body completely paralyzed and with nobody to look after his work affairs now. Do you run a company mom?!”Alisha was pissed and it wasn’t even because her dad was in the hospital, she was just angry because now there would be just too much for her to do alongside being a manager.“Why are you making this sound like it’s my fault? Why don’t you go on and scream at your dad too? And so what if I cannot run a company? What are you here for? We didn’t enroll you back then in all of those expensive schools just so you could grow up and run only one job” Kate lashed out.Alisha couldn’t believe that her mom would say that to her, like she wasn’t doing enough already.“You are unbelievable.” Alisha said and turned and walked in the direction of the bathroom.
