Dear readers,
I had planned on having this all written and posted by sometime in August. As you can see that did not happen for one really big reason and a slightly smaller reason. The first (big) reason is because my family and I have moved to a different state. It was long and tiring road but we are happy to be in our new home. The second reason is in the process of writting all of the new chapters I wrote too much and there will be a sequel to this story. I even have the title all worked out but you will have to wait and see for that because i am also working on a trailer for that.
Also I would really like your help for grammar and spelling mistakes. I have noticed a few and corrected them but I also now that it is possible for them to have slipped pass me.
Sincerely,
MayeJrMorris

Three days after I was arrested my father finally posted my bail. It had been the worst three days of my life. I tried talking to my dad but he refused to speak to me. It didn't mater that u continued to pester him.
"Dad please tell me why you waited three days to bail me out?" I asked. "I deserve to know."
"Because I was out of town. Because your mother did not tell me and because you clearly need to learn that your actions have consequences." He said. "Clearly I have let you run wild far too long."
I had no idea what to say to him. I always thought I was a normal British girl my age going to parties and shopping all day.
"Where is mum?" I asked.
"She has gone away for a weekend or two." He said. "I have no idea why she choose now as a good time to go away."
"Are you sure you didn't do anything?"
I watched the scenery of the city pass by as I waited for his answer.
"I have done nothing wrong." He snapped. "I have been a good father and a good husband."
"Some father you've been." I snapped. "You cut my money."
"Only because you are getting out of control Tanya. In fact after you serve the time that the crown declares enough for what you've done you will be going to rehab. But before any of that you will be cleaning the house from top to bottom like you and your mother made Isabella do."
MartianPOV
I let most of my staff go home and kept only one to cook because Tanya nor I couldn't, one to clean because someone had to show tanya how it was done and two for security. I let the drivers all go because I could drive my self and I didn't plan ongoing anywhere any time soon. I could run my business from home and chose to do so to keep a closer eye on Tanya until the courts decided what to do with her.
"Jordan could you please have Tanya brought to my office. I have somethings to discus with her." I said.
"Will do sir. Is there anything else or can I go and start making dinner."
"You may but keep is light. My heartburn is flaring up again." I replied.
"My aunt's homed chicken noodle recipe sounds about right." Jordan said heading back to the kitchen.
Ten minutes later my dear disgruntled daughter Tanya appeared in my office. I finished my last bit of work for the day before turning my attention to Tanya.
"Things will be changing around here…"
"Yeah I know you told me in the car on the way home today."
"I only gave you the basics in the car. We will only have a bare bones staff. One cook, one maid and two security people that is all. You will be going to rehab after you finish whatever sentence you are given. Also your mother and I will be getting a divorce. You will remain with me if you want to have continued access to your trust fund. If not it will be closed until you are thirty five years old." I stated. "Also if you remain clean of drugs and alcohol each year you will get a little more added to your trust fund. Do you understand what I have explained to you?"
"Yes father I do." Tanya replied. "Do I get to know how much you will be adding to my trust?"
"No." Quickly replied. "Now please ask Jordan to show you where the cleaning supplies are. I thought you might like to start cleaning your room before dinner. The others and wait until tomorrow."
Tanya gave me a curt nodded and walked out of the room. I turned my attention to the new word document I opened. I wanted to get my press statement ready.
BellaPOV
"To the people of England I Marcus Martian Dunn announce that I will be separating from Lilith Jane Dunn my wife of twenty-one years. It has been a long and hard road to make this choice. We will remain co-parents to our…"
"Thanks." I mumbled as the radio was turned off.
"That's okay. I am tired of hearing about it also." Alice said. "Have you gotten your things from the Dunn house yet?"
"No one had been home for me to get them.." I replied."If it wasn't for the few items that I love I would leave them but I can't so it is a waiting game for me."
"Marco can you please go to this address." Alice said.
"Can do Miss. Alice." Marco replied.
Ten minutes later we were pulling up to the Dunn house. The butterflies that had found a home in my stomach fluttered around like bats in hell. I would be surprised if I didn't get sick. Alice was right behind me as I walked up to the house. It was unlocked for once.
Once inside I headed straight for the last room that I stayed in. My bags were still there from where the officer had places them as they were searched. I grabbed them and bolted from the house. Alice stopped me and had me look to make sure that all of my stuff was there because I wasn't coming back to this house. There was only one item that I couldn't find and it meant the most to me. It was the necklace my dad gave me for my thirteenth birthday.
"I can't find my necklace." I said. "I have to go and find it."
I hopped out of the car before Alice or even Marco could stop me. I tore through the house towards the bedroom. I she arched each and every nook and cranny in the room and could not find it. I could not help but panic. I certainly didn't have the time to look all over the house for it. I tried thinking about where I could have left it. I finally remembered the room that I had first stayed in. I ran even faster to that room and took It apart and still could not find it. I don't know why but I had started to cry when my phone went off.
"I can't find it." I told Alice. "I guess I will have to go home without it."
"You still have your dad." She replied.
I hung up and headed back outside to the car. I was about five steps down when I heard a door slamming against the wall. I flipped around to see what caused it. Standing there in outfit worthy of 'A' from Pretty Little Liars (a black hoodie and jeans to match) was Tanya.
"You have ruined my life." She said. "I am a virtual prisoner in my own home. My dad is blackmailing me to get what he wants."
"I have done nothing to you." I replied.
"You have got to pay!"
Before I knew it Tanya was running at me. I tried to side step her but my foot slipped off the edge of the step almost sending me down the stairs. While I recovered Tanya came at me again. This time she hit me in the left shoulder causing me to lose my grip on the railing. I fell down the stairs this time. I kind of felt like a rag doll.
My vision started to fade when I finally landed at the bottom of the stairs. In fact the last thing I saw before blacking out was Tanya walking down the stairs and bending over me. It was then with blurry visions of her eyes that I also saw my necklace hanging from her neck. I reached up to grab it but my vision went black and I passed out completely.
AlicePOV
I waited for Bella to come out of the house. For over twenty minutes. I had started to get nervous after about the first five.
"Marco follow me inside. Something is wrong." I said. "Bella would have been out by now."
I ran up to the door but once I was there I walked slowly Inside after pushing the door open. I stepped inside and started to look around. I looked replying to something Tanya said. I then watch in horror as Tanya said something else and charged at Bella hitting her in the shoulder and sending her down the stairs. Bella's body came to a stop with a soft thud at the base of the stairs. I remained frozen as Tanya walked down the stairs and paused at Bella's side looking down at her.
It was Marco that rushed past me and subdued Tanya. I rushed to Bella's side and felt a pulse, which thankfully was still strong. I pulled out my phone and called for the police and the ambulance.
Once police arrived I was able to step outside and call jasper to let him know. I knew he could get a hold of Bella's dad.
"Alice I thought you were with Bella?" Jasper asked.
"I am or I was. We stopped at the Dunn house to get her things and she couldn't find the necklace her dad gave her."
"Is she okay?" He asked.
"I wish I could say she is but Jasper, Tanya pushed her down the stairs. Sh is on the way to the hospital." I paused. "I think you need to call her dad. I have no clue how bad she is."
"Let me know If you hear anything." Jasper said.
"I will. Love you I have to go the police want to speak with me."
