“The subscriber you have dialled is unavailable at present. Please try again later.”
Ugh! That had got to be the ninth time that I had heard the automated message
ring in my ears after trying to contact Dante. He hadn't been taking any of my
calls and I couldn’t understand why. I knew that he was upset the night that I had
left with Scott but surely he couldn't have been made about it for so long.
I needed to tell him what I had discovered about Scott and see if he had any idea
about it. Not only did Taylor rat him out for having us followed and staging those
pictures for her to snap and cook up in to a grand story the following morning, I
had also discovered why my uncle never actually wanted him to join the
company.
Maybe Dante didn’t know any thing about this. After all, if he did; he would have
told me before hand and now left me in the dark about it especially considering
that he was not particularly thrilled about Scott joining the company at all.
After knowing Scott's true motives, I couldn't think of any better decisions then to
have him removed from the
company as an investor but I needed to seek advice of if I could even do such a
thing. I didn’t see why I wouldn't. I owned the company and Scott's intention was
not at all pure and it never had been from the beginning.
I paced the length of not only office but half way past Lucy's desk and back
several times. The reporters had not
shown after the security caused a scury and I was relieved over that, to say the
least.
O since this mornin
“Oh, my go d. you have got to stop pacing. It is giving me a headache.” Lucy
threw her hands up dramatically from behind the desk. “What are you eve
pacing for?” She asked in a clipped tone.
“You know all about it already. I don’t know
what to do. Scott turned to be a villain when I least expected it and
to think that I agreed to go with the man to dinner so that I could ask him for his
support and aid to clear this out
with the rest of stakeholders.” My irritation began to simmer every time I had
thought about it.
I ran a hand through my hair feeling overwhelmed and a little lost. “I should have
dug a little deeper when he approached me initially. It always didn’t make sense
why my uncle never accepted him as an investor but it does now.” It still annoyed
me that I had not figured it out or had come to know about it sooner.
Lucy didn’t look up from the papers on her desk and paid me half her attention. “I
also didn’t think to snoop around him further myself. I knew about his superficial
face but not his true self when it came to the company.” She mumbled tapping a
pencil against the edge of her eye brow.

“How would you have found out? Scott Vanderbilt was not seen as any thing but
a light at the end of the tunnel that we so needed when we really didn't. Little did
I know that he wanted to undermine the company just so he could sn atch it from
me when it had fallen to the ground.” I grit my teeth thinking of how conniving and
sly he had been.
It was such a blessing that I had not been easily whisked away and infatuated
with him based on his charm and fake persona that he had used to try and break
past my borders and trick me. The entire situation could have been worse had I
actually engaged in any sort of casual relations with him and never had I ever
been more thankful to have been so stuck in my ways before.
Lucy wheeled her chair back like she was moving away from the folders on her
desk to give me her undivided attention.
“But now you know about it all. The next question is what are you going to do
about him? He can't stay in the company when he has ill intentions for it. He can't
be trusted at all.” She said what I had already knew.
“That is a given. There is no way in hell I was going to let him be a part of this
company knowing his unmasked face. I just needed to speak to Dante. He would
know what to do.” I said more to myself than Lucy but the I shook my head.
“except the man isn’t taking any of my dam n calls.” I nearly yelled and Lucy
winced.
“He must be busy, Sophia. I can't imagine Dante Crawford sotiing around waiting
at this phone for your call.” She said sarcastically and I threw her a warning glare
but she brushed it aside.
“You need to calm the heck down. The paparaz zi are no longer in sight. Go get
some thing to eat and I will arrange a meeting with legal and you can discuss it
with them when you get back. If Mr. Crawford happens to call, I will let you know.”
Lucy ordered me around and I was not against her firm suggestion.
An hour later, I had my stomach full with well needed nourishment. My mood was
calmer and I was able to think a bit more clearer which was good seeing as I
walked in to my office with two head of legal seated in my office awaiting my
arrival.
I couldn't tell how long had passed but after speaking to the both of them it had
become abundantly clear that they had some clue about my uncle's dislike for
Scott's joining the company or having him any where near it.
The information never failed to stun me. Each time I had heard it all I could think
about what just how Scott had played the card of the helpless start up who was
guided by my uncle who he had the highest regard and respect for but he left out
the most important part being that he had openly challenged my uncle to steal
the business right from beneath his nose and, by the look of it, he almost had
been successful in his plan until I had come about and the company was
transfered to me.

Scotf probably had no clue that I knew exactly what he had been up to all this
time and I couldn't wait for him to be served with the notice that he was being
expelled as a stakeholder for proof of defamation and ill intention. He wouldn't
take it lightly, I could guarantee that much neither would he own up to it. Not
initially at least.
