"SKYLAR!!!!" Taylor screamed. Who knew a little bitch like her could be capable of doing such. Her name was Taylor Evans and unless it changes she would rest until Skylar gets a taste of her own medicine.

Skylar and Melanie later went school hunting that afternoon and after a lot of options finally chose a private school with moderate fees for Melanie. Melanie wrote the entrance exam and as the headmaster looked at her script he told her to resume the next day. It was well known to him that all the answers were correct and he smiled inwardly as he realized that this student was gifted and his school finally had a gifted kid.

Havana motivated herself as she stood at the door of the restaurant. She had successfully convinced Mr. Kent to re-discuss the contract over lunch, she could see him seated at the other end of the restaurant. He came 10 minutes early. Havana knew why she had to do this. She didn't give a damn if the company crashed. She needed more money as Melanie has started school plus cost of living and moving to another city in case they were spotted by Mr. Marcelo. "Here we go" Havana sighed as she walked to meet Mr. Kent
"Good day Mr. Kent sorry for keeping you waiting" Havana said.
"No worries. I came ahead of schedule" Mr. Kent replied.
"Have you ordered something?" Havana started a conversation to lighten the mood.
"No. Let's just get down to business" Mr. Kent said
"Waiter!" Havana called. She wanted him to feel relaxed while they were talking and according to the research she made, people are more relaxed when eating. She ordered for the both of them.
"So Mr. Kent my boss has told you everything IT suppose. All you need to do now is to sign this contract. You can read it if you like" Havana said and presented the contract.
"I don't think you and your boss gets it. I need to know everything about the business I'm investing in. How you guys plan to use my money, the profit expected and more importantly the risk! Your boss said there is no risk attached and I wonder, do I look like a fool. How can there be no risk attached!" Mr. Kent said. Havana could tell he was getting annoyed luckily she came prepared.
"Sir, take at look at this" Havana handed the company's plan to him.
After a lot of argument and re-arrangement of contract Havana finally got Mr. Kent to sign the contract.
When she got back to the company she didn't forget to tell Sheila who later announced it to the Boss.
"Havana, the boss is requesting your presence in the office" Sheila announced as she walked into the assistants office. Everyone turned to look at Havana. Havana beamed and walked confidently to the boss' office. Angela, the secretary, glared at Havana but didn't say a word.
"Sir, you sent for me" Havana said.
"I heard of your outstanding accomplishment. What you did I don't anyone in this company could do that. I admire your intelligence"
"Thank you sir" Havana said
"You see you're the kind of person I need around me. Intelligent with good persuasion skills. How would you like to become my secretary?" Nolan said.
"What about Angela?" Havana asked
"Truth be told, I've been looking for an opportunity to demote her. Clients have been complaining about her character and we've lost some investments because of her" Nolan said.
"Well then, I accept your offer" Havana managed to keep her excitement in check as she said.
"Um..."Nolan said and cleared his throat, "How about we celebrate this investment with a dinner date"
Havana smiled outwardly but was shocked inside. In other not to embarrass him she said, "I'll think about it"
*********
Taylor was at the Inmate Calling Area talking to a man. The man was just recently released from prison after 15 years and sadly, nothing about him changed.
"I've been monitoring the girl's schedule and me and my guys are planning to attack tomorrow" The man whispered.
"Great! Don't kill her immediately, torture her...let her feel the pain she caused me and then you kill her. I need a clean job done. No traces" Taylor whispered back.
"About the payment?" The man asked
"I've got the key to the Police's treatment fund safe. It's a safe that holds money donated by some organizations to the police. Here's the key" Taylor said and they began to discuss irrelevant things to avoid suspicion since they had been whispering for long.
Taylor returned to her bunk happy....No one messes with her and no one ever will.
***********
"Well, today was amazing" Havana said as she walked into the house to see Skylar and Melanie sitting in the parlour.
"It was the best day of my life" Skylar squealed.
"I think mine is the greatest. I got promoted guys!" Havana said.
"Congratulations" Skylar said.
"I always knew you could do it" Melanie commented
"And the boss asked me out on a date"
"What!" Skylar and Melanie screamed. One in excitement and the other in shock.
"What did you tell him?" Skylar asked.
"You didn't say yes did you?" Melanie said.
"I told him I'll give him an answer tomorrow" Havana said.
"Take my advice..tell him no" Melanie said.
"Don't listen to her Havana. Agree to the date then you take things further. It's how all love stories start" Skylar said.
Havana smiled at Skylar's silliness and turned to Melanie, "Why shouldn't i agree Melanie" she said calmly.
Melanie didn't want to admit that she dreamed of Havana beoming her mother which could only happen if Havana married her dad. "He's not the right one for you. Don't ask how...I just know it" Melanie said.
Havana shrugged off Melanie's response and listened to Skylar as she spoke about the events that happened that day.
