Thank you all for the wonderful reviews and the feedback. It makes my day and puts a smile on my face
{{{Don't really know if I need a tissue alert but Elliot gets a little teary eyed}}
They have all walked out of the interrogation room and Ana has stopped Christian so she can look at his hand
He turns and looks at her and says
"What Ana why did you stop me? I want to get the hell out of here." He tells her
"I want to look at your hand Boo. I need to make sure you didn't break anything this time around. I can understand why you hit him but you could have broken your hand this time." she tells him
He looks at her sheepishly… "I think I did. I can't feel my fingers." he tells her
"Christian Grey, what am I going to do with you?" she asked him
"Well for starters call Taylor and tell him we are getting the hell out of here and we are going to the hospital." he tells her
"Already taken care of son." Ray says as he looks at Christian's hand
"Come on you two let's go." Ana says
Taylor has the car out front waiting on them. He gets out and opens Ana and Christian's door and Ray gets in the front passenger seat
"To the hospital my good man." Ana says
"Yes ma'am. Christian one question. Did you knock his sorry ass out?" Taylor asked him smiling
"Sure as hell did Taylor…I sure did and I would do it again.' he tells Taylor laughing
"Very good sir now seatbelts on and let's get that hand taken care of what do you say?" Taylor asked him
Ana buckles herself and Christian in cause he can't use his hand
"Yes let's go it is starting to hurt more and swelling." he says looking at his hand
They ride for a little while no one saying anything
Right before they get to the hospital Ana starts talking
"Boo you need to press charges on Andrea and she will be arrested at her home since GEH is shut down for now." she tells him
"Yes I know and I will take care of it very soon." he tells her
They get to the hospital emergency entrance and Taylor gets out and opens their doors. Ray gets out and Ana, Christian and Ray walk inside
"Mr. Grey, I will park and meet you all inside." Taylor says professionally cause they are in public
"Thank you Taylor." he says
They walk up to the front desk and the attendant just stares at Christian…Ana clears her throat
"Yes, how can I help you? she asked batting her eyes at Christian
"Well first of all you can act professional. Now I need to see a doctor. I believe I have broken my hand." he tells her
"Name please?" she asked him…knowing who he is but he asked for her to be professional and she is trying to be
"Christian Grey." he says
"Mr. Grey, if you have a seat in the waiting room I will get a nurse to attend you and then she will get the doctor." she tells him
"Thank you. Come Ana, Ray." he tells them
Taylor walks in and sits down with them. Ever the vigilant CPO he is looking around every corner
"Mr. Grey I have already taken the liberty to have NDA's signed by all staff and emergency room people." he tells him
A nurse walks into the waiting room and says
"Mr. Grey, will you follow me?" the nurse asked him
"Ana you are coming with me." he tells her
"Mr. Grey I am sorry but she is not allowed back in the emergency room." she tells him
"Excuse me, do you not know who I am? I am Christian Grey and I practically own this hospital. Now Ana is coming back with me. Do you understand Nurse Anderson?" he asked her
"Yes sir, it's not a problem." she tells him
She takes them into a room and tells him she has to take his vitals; it is hospital protocol
"That is fine, just do not touch my chest or back." he tells her
She takes his temp, BP and Pulse
"Looks good Mr. Grey. Now what is the reason for your visit sir? I see that you were in here last night for a bruised hand." she says
"Yes ma'am I was seen here last night and the doctor said it was bruised . Now I believe it might be broken." he tells her
He holds his hand up and she looks at it
"Let me get the doctor and he will get the orders for x rays. One moment please." she tells him
She starts to walk out the door and sees someone standing there
"How can I help you sir?" she asked him
"No ma'am I am Mr. Grey's CPO. Where he goes I go." Taylor tells her
"Um alright." she says and walks passed him
She walks back with the doctor to where Taylor is standing and proceeds to open the door walk in
"Mr. Grey my name is Dr. Holmes and my nurse said that you think your hand is broken. May I see it please?" he asked him
Christian holds his hand out and the doctor looks at it
"Oh my nurse please call x-ray and let them know that you are bringing an emergency room patient down for x-rays on his hand." the doctor says
"Nurse Anderson please take Mr. Grey down to the x-ray room and have them do a full hand , and both sides. Here are the orders. Thank you." he says
"Ma'am he will be back shortly." the nurse says
They walk out of the room and are met by Taylor
'Taylor she is taking me down to the x-ray room for x-rays on my hand." Christian tells him
"Very good sir. I will be right outside the door." Taylor says
The nurse wants to say something but keeps her mouth closed
They take x-rays and then Christian goes back to the room with Ana to wait on the doctor for results
The doctor walks back in with a tray and all kinds of things on it and sets it up beside Christian
"Well Mr. Grey you were absolutely correct your hand is broken in two places. I am going to put a cast on it. Any preference to the color? We have white, blue, green, red oh you name we have all colors. Kids love the colors." he says
"Dr. Holmes white is fine." Christian tells him
"No Boo get the blue or the gray." she tells him
'Ana I want while." he tries to tell her but she is just laughing
"Boo white is not a color and it will get dirty and dingy and you don't want that. Get blue like my eyes or I know how about that bright neon green. Look at that pretty color." she tells him giggling
"Anastasia, have you lost your mind? Doc put the blue on so she will stop please." he says smirking at Ana and she is still giggling
The doctor finishes with casting his hand and giving him a prescription to get filled for pain relief. He tells him to take one when he gets them. Cause once the feeling comes back you are going to need them
Christian and Ana thank the Dr. Holmes and walk out
Taylor is waiting on them and smirking
"Something funny Taylor you want to share?" Christian asked him smirking himself
"Um no sir everything is good." he says
Ray is waiting on them. He looks at Christian's hand and sees it in a pretty blue cast
"Well I guess it was broken." he says
"Yes daddy it was in two places. That will teach him not to hit someone with an already hurt hand." Ana tells them
"Come on Ana let's go home." Christian says
"Christian I called Elliot and told him we were at the hospital so he wouldn't worry about you." Ray says
"Thank you Ray I appreciate you doing that for me." he says
They all walk out to the car that Taylor already has parked waiting on them. They get and Christian tells Taylor that he has to have a prescription filled
"Christian you want to get it now or leave it and one of the guys can come and pick it up when it is ready sir?" Taylor asked him
"That will be fine Taylor. Let's drop it off and head home." Christian tells him
They get back to Escala and Taylor parks the car and gets out and opens their doors and they all walk over to the elevator and get ready to up to the penthouse
They arrive at the penthouse the elevator doors open and Elliot is standing there waiting on them
"Bro are you alright? Did you knock the fucker out cold?" Elliot asked him
"Yes my hand is broken and I sure as hell did." he tells him
"Come you all Gail has food prepared for you all." he says
"Thank you Gail, we appreciate this so much." Ana says
"My pleasure Ana and you are welcome." Gail replies
"Elliot, have you eaten? Gail, have you?" Christian asked them both
"Naw bro we were waiting on you all. Ray called and told us you were at the Hospital so Gail wanted to fix something for all of us and we decided to wait on you." he says
"Well let's eat I am starving and I have to take my pain meds when they get ready." he says
They all sat down to eat the meal Gail made for all of them. After they were finished all the men went into the great room and Ana helped Gail clean up
"Alright I have waited long enough. Tell me what happened when the bastard saw you?" he asked Christian
"I think he was shocked and pissed off that I was there. I think he might have pissed himself when I gave him the warrant and told him what he was under arrest for." Christian tells him
"What did he say?" Elliot wanted details
"He told me I was mistaken and he hasn't done anything like that. Can you believe that shit?" he says
"What else did you say and what did he say?" Elliot is like a dog with a bone
"I told him he was a lying piece of shit and wasn't worth my time. I told him that this would be the time I ever saw him. I called him names and cursed his ass out. Told him he was a sorry excuse for a human being and so on. Told him Mia and his precious son Jonathan were the scum of the earth and the angel that saved me his sorry wife was the devil.
"Oh damn I wish I had been there but I didn't think it was my place or time to confront him for all the hell and turmoil he has not only caused you but me too. Bro I hate him with a passion. How could no one not see what the bastard was up to? I don't only mean how he has broken our family apart with his lies. But my God what he has done to you." Elliot says with tears in his eyes
"I don't know El I don't know." he says and walks over to him and sits down and pulls him into his arms
"I know you are hurting El, we have to be strong for each other. We will survive this and move forward." Christian tells him
"This is going to be so tough when all this comes out you know." Elliot tells him
"Well Elliot most of it has already come out. Everyone knows what the pedo did to me. Most know what Mia, Carrick and Jonathan have done to me. Ros is in Prison, GEH is shut down for now. Hell the whole hospital knows what Grace has done." he tells him
"So really there isn't much more to come out. We will deal with everything when it comes time for the trials. We will stand together and laugh in their ignorant faces cause they lost and we won." Christian tells him
"Yes we will and we have Ana, Ray and all our family right here including Taylor, Gail and all the security." he says
"Damn right we do." Christian says
"Fuck them all. We don't need their sorry asses to be happy. Who wants to be around toxic sick people?" Elliot says
"Amen I second that." Ray says walking over to them
"Now here me out boys before either of you say anything alright." Ray says
"Elliot, I have already talked to Christian a few days ago about getting him one of the best therapists there is. Now I would like to get you one also. I have spoken to them and they have plenty of time for you both. Just because Christian is going through all this hell at work and what the bastards have done to him and putting him through I know it is rough on him." Ray says sitting down beside them
"I also know you are dealing with this too. Hell your so-called father is a thief and a cheater. Your so-called mother is a pedophile and hell I don't know what the charges are. Your sister is a thief and we find out that Carrick is her real father and then we find out she has a half brother and she no longer cares for either of you. So I am suggesting that I get a therapist for you also." Ray tells him
"Yes Ray, that would be fine. Do we need to bring them in now or wait until they all go to prison?" he asked Ray
"I believe in my heart that you both need them now. You will need them during and after the trial. There is going to be so much attention on both of you before long. I think that with the help of therapists you will both be more equipped to handle all that will be thrown at you." Ray tells them
"Yes Ray, thank you. I have always trusted your judgment and I am not going to stop now. From what Ana told me a few years ago you got her a therapist that helped her deal with her mothers death. So whenever you want us to see them you just let us know." Elliot tells him with tears in his eyes
"Christian, Elliot, would you like for them to come here or would you rather go to their offices? It is up to you both. They said they would be glad to have the sessions here if you prefer." Ray tells them
"Christian is that acceptable for you son?" Ray asked him
"Yes sir, that is fine with me. Just let me know who they are and I can get Taylor to set up the appointment times." he says
"Alright but one thing, no background checks on them. They have already been vetted by me and my daughter and they work for the FBI. So no use in doing your usual thing young man." Ray tells him
"Yes sir, it's not a problem. I figured if you recommended them they were on the up and up." Christian tells him
"I just wanted you to be aware that it wouldn't do you any good because you wouldn't be able to access them." Ray tells him
"Alright then just give their names and phone numbers to Taylor and he can make the appointments for us." he tells Ray
"Will do and thank you both for accepting my offer to help y'all. If either or both of you would like to talk to anytime you both know I am here for you." Yes Ray we know and thank you.
"Oh damn I almost forgot…he slaps his forehead then shakes his head…like why did I do that ..shit that hurts like a bitch…Ok well now that I knocked some sense into me..he laughs…Who the hell was helping Carrick at GEH? I have a guess but I am not sure. So tell me." He says
"El you know the one you are always sweet on and wanted to date before the bitch got married and you always smiled and got your way into my office?" Christian asked him
Elliot's eyes got big as saucers
"Oh fuck no not my girl that I always tried to get to go out with me? You mean sweet Barbie Doll…Andrea?" he asked yelling
"Yeah but the bitch ain't sweet bro she was helping Carrick for a cool million and as he put it what was between his legs…So gross man and she cheated on her husband with Carrick Grey and now she has nothing. Well she will when she is served a warrant tomorrow at her house.. She will lose her husband and baby." Christian tells him
"Oh damn did Carrick say why she did it besides the money? There has got to be a reason or motive behind her crazy ass doing this." Elliot says
Ana walks back in and sits down on the other side of Christian
"Want my honest opinion?" Ana says
"Lay it on us Ana." Elliot says
"Mr. Christian Grey." that is all she says
"Um, would you care to continue Ana?" Christian asked her
"What, you don't believe me? I have seen the way she used to look at you when I would come to see you. I saw the way she looked at me like she wanted to kill me." she says
"No she never did that? Or I never saw it. She was the only one on my floor that never tried to make a move on me. She never lingered in my office and she was always on top of everything." he says
"Well that is my opinion, take it for what it is worth. But I guarantee that she had the hots for you but you never gave that bitch the time of day and she hated you for it." Ana tells him
"Hell she knew I didn't date and I didn't date my employees either." he tells them
"Alright just wait until you get a chance to ask her and I bet you my favorite bike she will tell you the same thing I just told you. But she will probably be bitching at you." she tells him
"Wait a minute, what bike? When did you get a bike and what kind of bike is it? Ray, when did she get a bike?" Christian asked them
Ana and Ray were smiling but didn't say anything
"Ok someone tell me when my girl got a bike? Is it a mountain bike or a motorcycle? Hello, I need answers please?" he asked them pulling his hair
Ana takes his hands and pulls them away from his head before he pulls his hair out
"It's ok Boo you can ride it." she tells him
He just stares at her and she rolls her eyes. Even though he is done with BDSM..he wouldn't mind taking her over his knee right now..not because she rolled her eyes but because she won't give him a damn answer
"Ana I think you better him before he blows a gasket." Elliot says laughing
"Oh alright it is a motorcycle." she tells him
"What? Why in the hell do you need a motorcycle? They are not safe. Don't you know that? Ray helps me out here. She is going to get herself killed on a damn bike. It is just not safe. You have got to get rid of it Ana." he tells her all this and she just looks at him like he is crazy
"First off Freak Christian Grey you are not my father, my boyfriend or my damn husband therefore I can do what the hell I want and have what the hell I want. I buy what I want no one else you hear me. If I wanted two, three or more it is nothing to you." she tells him getting up and storming out of the room
"Now hold on one dang minute young lady. Come back here so we can discuss this bike you have. I want to know what kind it is and how long you have had it. You know it is a safety issue and your CPO should know it too. How in the world does he keep you safe when you ride it?" he asked her
"He is on his and I have a car in front and a car in the back when I ride my BIKE. Anything else your highness needs to know? Next question I am waiting , oh lord and master." she tells him giggling
"Ana you better stop while you are ahead for now." Elliot says
"Why should I? I am a grown woman. I have the right to do whatever the hell I want to do and if I want to ride my BIKE I WILL RIDE MY BIKE." she tells him
"Ana calm the hell down. I am not screaming at you or yelling, I am just trying to talk to you is all. Yes I got a little demanding but that's just the way I am. I am sorry if I got out of line with you. But gee whiz a bike that worries me." he says
Elliot just cracked up when Christian said gee whiz
"Elliot, what is so funny?" Christian asked him
"Oh damn it's just I have never heard you say gee whiz is all and it was funny coming from you bro." he says still laughing
"Oh good grief get over it Christian I have a bike and I am keepin it and I am going to ride when I have time to go home. My bike is not here, it is at home." she tells him
"What kind of bike do you have ? I am curious." he says
"It is an older Kawasaki Ninja model and I love it. You can ride it sometime if you want to and you think you can handle it." she tells him
"Damn you know y'all completely got off the topic of bitch Andrea?" Ray says laughing
"Oh hell we sure did." Ana said
"Ok so why else would Andrea do this? She should have known she was going to get caught. She wasn't going to have any money or a family. And she wasn't going to get you on her terms..so to speak." Ana says
"What do you mean by her terms.. he air quotes..?" Christian asked her
"She couldn't get you to give her the time of day and she knew if she tried to seduce you she would lose her cushy job. So she was waiting for you to notice her and take advantage of her so she could use that against you say as blackmail so you would have to do what she wanted or she would tell the press and get you for sexual harassment.
All she had to do was be in your office long enough for you to say something and she would have it recorded and BAM. Then she would tell you what she wanted and if you didn't comply she would bring forth the video that she made to try and get you that way." she tells him
"That might have worked but I never talked to her unless it was to do with my meetings and appointments. I never moved from my desk. I always stayed seated and I wouldn't have a reason to say some out of the way to Andrea. I never led her on in any way shape of form." he says
"Christian let me ask you something. Think on this for a minute before you answer alright?" she tells him
"Ok go ahead I am listening." he says
"Now if she was walking in and you saw her starting to fall would you sit at your desk or be a gentleman and catch her before she fell? Think about the consequences of what could come of that if she was recording it." she tells him
"Damn I see what you are saying and yes I would have gotten up to keep her from falling. Damn the bitch could have ruined me. But you know she never tried that." he tells her
"I wonder why? She worked for you for seven years right?" she asked him
"Yes she did and the last five she was in cahoots with Carrick." he tells her and shakes all over just thinking about them together eew
"I am guessing now but do you think since she couldn't get you that when Carrick propositioned her for her help she said to hell with all and took him up on his offer to ruin you because you didn't want her?
And another theory is that you might not like this but it is the truth I have seen and heard you and everyone within hearing distance knows when you are in an ill mood. A deal is not working out like it should have. You are sometimes rude to your employees , you never say thank you or please. If something isn't done right you scream and yell. How many times have you told Andrea to get rid of her assistants who are helping her cause they are not filing the papers right and don't make your coffee right or bat their eyes and stare at you and you say they are incompetent to work for you to get rid of them?" she tells
"Ok I am an ass at work sometimes I admit it." he says
"Yes bro you are, I have heard you bitch like a little girl a lot of times I come to have lunch with you." Elliot says
"Where is the control freak that is supposed to know how to handle situations like that?" she asked him
"He left the building when he became stressed about a deal or people trying to tell him what to do." he tells her
"I thought you were taught control over everything and everyone? Didn't work for you, did it Boo?' she asked him
He just looks at her and can't believe she said that. But it was true
"I lose all my control when things go wrong." he tells her
"Yes but that is when you should have more control, not less." she says and whispers in his ear…bitch didn't help you a fuckin bit did now did she?
"Yes I should have." he says and looks at her
"Well it's getting to be close to supper time. I am going to start cooking. Y'all sit in here and hash that out. I am done for now." she tells them
They all just look at her as she walks away
"You know Christian she is right. Andrea could have tried to get you into a compromising situation and you would never have known until she showed you a video. She could have turned it around and said that you grabbed her before she could walk out of the office. Then she probably would have used it against you as sexual harassment as Ana said." Elliot told him
"My lord, why can't people just leave me alone? I never gave her or any of the women that work for me any attention." he says
Ana comes back in the great room
"You know Boo I have been wondering why you only hire blondes. I and probably all of Seattle would like to know the answer to that mighty big question. I have been in coffee shops and have heard some of the women talk about you and your company. Oh they would love to work there but Grey only hires blondes. Does he have a preference for blondes? Is that why he employs them?
He doesn't say anything just cocks his head to the side and looks at her
As much as I would like to have his name on my resume I am not changing my hair color for his company. One woman said and another said..how many of those women that work are not natural blondes I wonder?
Do you get what I am saying Boo? All you have to do is look at their eyebrows, hell half of them are brown…so therefore they bleach their hair to work for The Christian Grey." she tells him
He continues to look at her thinking…Ana looks at him oh my lord the man hasn't got the sense God gave a damn Billy goat…I know he is not that damn clueless or maybe he is…no..no way
"So Anastasia you are telling me that all the women that work for me are there for one reason to try and snag me? Is that what you are saying? They think I like blondes and I would eventually fall for one of them? Well I be damned. How stupid can I be?" he says
"Well I wouldn't say stupid but yeah maybe you are . It took you a while to figure it out. You know any one of those women could have made a play for you anytime they wanted to be the next Mrs. Christian Grey by blackmailing you. Could have been walking in or out of the building and you caught one before she fell. BAM the paps have their money shot and she set it up for you to take the fall. She can talk in front of them because they saw it happen. No telling what any of them would have said to the paps or she would have said to you in front of them…maybe something like.. oh thank you darling I almost fell and my man is quite the hero helping your lady and she gives you a kiss on the cheek and there is not a damn thing you can do about.
Ray, Elliot and Christian all look at her nod their heads
I figure they wanted to keep their jobs and not cause any trouble cause they didn't want to lose their high paying jobs and get blackballed by yours truly and not be able to get another in the North West. All I can say is damn smart women." she tells them all
"Yes by God you are right. Now that I think about it, I have seen that happen as I was starting to walk up the steps into my building. Someone would almost trip but before I could get to them the security guard at the door would help them. I remember one that looked at him like get away from me and then looked at me and glared. I never knew why. Now I do." he says
No one went back to the question Ana asked him about why he only hired blondes but Ana knows
"Ok going to cook now." she says and walks away
Ana walks into the kitchen and Gail walks in behind her. Ana knows Gail heard her talking and she knows why he only hired blondes too
"What are we making for dinner Ana?" Gail asked her
"I'm thinking of something quick and easy. How about Garlic Butter Steak and Potatoes? I saw that we have some flank steak in the fridge and plenty of potatoes. Oh do we have any small yellow baby potatoes? They will be easier to cook. I think I will roast some baby carrots too" she says
"I believe we do Ana. Let me check the pantry. Yes Ana we do." she tells her
"Fantastic, oh did you get more corn on the cob when you went grocery shopping? We can prepare that in the Instant Pot." she says
"Yes Ana I sure did everyone loved it that way so I have started keeping it on hand. It is so easy to cook." she tells her
"Ok I will cut the steak into strips. Gail I need you to cut the potatoes into wedges that would be good?" she asked her
"Alright no problem." she tells her getting the potatoes out and start to peel them
"No Gail, just wash them well, leave the peeling on them and cut them up. Then put the potatoes in the water and let them cook for seven to eight minutes don't drain the water out just let them in it" she tells her
"Ok will do." she says getting everything she needs to start with
Ana gets the baby carrots out of the fridge and slices them up and adds olive oil and Pink Himalayan sea salt and puts them in the oven to cook for about twenty minutes
Ana has the steak sliced and all the ingredients she needs for the marninate. She mixes everything up and puts it in a plastic bag with the steak and seals the bag. She shakes the bag to make sure everything is covered with the marninate
Ana adds butter to the pan and when it gets hot she turns it down and adds the steak. She cooks the steak on one side flipping it over so the other side is cooked.
After the steak is done she takes it out and adds the rest of the marninate to the pan and adds the potatoes with a little more butter and sears them to just brown a little bit.
She checks on her carrots in the oven and they are done
"Gail, is everything ready?" she asked her
"Yes ma'am and my heavens it smells delicious. I have already set the table and all we have to do is plate the steak and potatoes and the carrots and we are ready to eat. I already have wine, water and your sweet tea on the table." she tells Ana
"Elliot didn't find my lemon pound cake did he?" she asked Gail
"No Ana he didn't." she replies
"Good I didn't want to have to kill him tonight." she says laughing
"Oh come on you let's get the menfolk and eat. I am rather hungry." she tells Ana
Ana walks into the great room and smiles and says supper is ready. Go wash up and come eat
They all jump up and head to different bathrooms to wash up for supper
"Good golly miss molly, what in the world smells so good?" Ray asked them
"Another of Ana's wonderful recipes." Gail tells them
They all sit down to eat and chat about nothing really. Holding off till supper is finished. Ana doesn't like to talk about what is going on with Christians at the table. It is depressing and they all need to relax and decompress
"oh lord that was delicious Ana and Gail."Elliot tells them
They both say thank you
"Now who wants dessert? Ana asked them
Elliot looks at Ana like…me.. I am sitting
"Yes please and what are we having?" Elliot asked her
"My famous Lemon Cake" she tells him
"Why is it famous?" he asked her
"After you eat I will tell you." she says smirking at him
Elliot looks at everyone around the table and sees that they all have a piece of Ana's lemon cake and they are eating it and moaning out loud
"Ok give me a piece looks like everyone loves it."he says
Ana cuts Elliot a big slice and gives it to him. Waiting for him to take a bite and see if he likes it. She can tell by the smile on his face and moaning he is doing that he loves it
"Damn this is so good and moist. I don't remember ever have lemon cake this moist and so flavorful." he says and notices everyone looking at him
"What it's the truth it is moist and very, very good." he tells them as he takes his last big bite
"Elliot it has been sitting for two days. The longer it sits the better it is…but it never lasts beyond two days
"Now Ms. Anastasia Steele why is it your famous lemon cake?" he asked her
"Well I substitute a can of Mountain Dew for the cup of water and I add one packet of instant lemon pudding and squeeze a lemon in the mx and use lemon peel and add the regular ingredients like the eggs and the oil but I make the cake from scratch no store cake mix here." she tells them
"Annie, that was a mighty delicious cake and supper thank you." Ray tells her
"You welcome daddy, happy you enjoyed it." she tells him
"Ana I second that it was mighty delicious thank you and Gail both for another wonderful meal." he tells them
They both say thank you. Gail gets up from the table and starts clearing it off after everyone moves toward the great room again
"Gail, wait let me help you." Ana tells her
"No Ana I am good with it, go and sit down. I know you all still have things to discuss." she tells her
"If you are sure you don't want my help." she says
"I am sure not scat." Gail says laughing
Ana walks back into the great room with the men and finds them all sprawled out on the couches and chairs
'Um are we all ok? Y'all look like you all are ready for a nap and well..she looks at her watch and sees it is getting kinda late… dang it's eight o'clock." she says
"Daddy, what are you going to do tomorrow?" she asked him
"I am going to talk to the therapist for Christian and Elliot in the morning and they are going to have Taylor set up their appointments. Why did you need me for something?" he asked her
"No, I was just wondering is all." she says
"Wait a minute, why aren't you and Elliot making your own appointments? Neither one of you are working at the moment so y'all need to talk to the secretary and make your appointment don't ya think?" she tells them
"Well we can but what difference does it make who calls and makes the appointments for us?" Elliot asked her
"Maybe it would be better coming from you and not Taylor. I know he does a lot of stuff hell just about all the stuff for you but I think it would be more personal if you both did the calling. That way the therapist would know that you are serious about these sessions don't you think so?" she asked them
They don't say anything
"Most times people go to a therapist because someone wants them to or it is required not because they want to do it themselves. Not saying that you two don't want to do it. I just feel like that you should make the effort and do it yourselves is all I am saying." she tells them
"She has a point there bro. We need to man up and call ourselves that way they will know we are serious and we really need these sessions. Cause man I need them to help me get a grip on what the hell has been going on." elliot tells Christian
"I agree with you El, we will call them in the morning and make our appointments for them to come here and see us. Ana, you always make the most sense after I ask you a question. It's not…you need to..you give it to us straight. Thank girl sweetheart." he says to El and Ana
"Alrighty then I am going to go and shower and get a good night's sleep I have to go and arrest a bitch in the morning." she deadpans and walks away
All Christian hears is shower
"Goodnight Annie, love you sweet dreams." Ray says
Goodnight Ana." Elliot says
"Ana, can I walk you to your room? I am going to turn in too." he says
"Sure come on. My shower is a waitin." she tells him
"What's up Boo? Do you wanna talk?" she asked him
"I just wanted to say be safe and ask who is going with you tomorrow to arrest the bitch Andrea." he says
"I am going to call Paula and Davidson is going with me." she tells him
"Ok I was just wondering. I was praying that you weren't going by yourself. Even though I know you can take of yourself and can no doubt take Andrea into custody I still worry about you." he says looking at her
"I know you do Boo, but I will be just fine and I will be fine as wine when I put that no good bitch behind bars at the Federal Prison. She is going straight there to be processed." Ana said with a smile on her face
"Are you leaving early or will you have time for breakfast with me before you leave?" he asked her
"I will have time for breakfast but I don't plan on eating a big breakfast in the morning. I am getting up at eight o'clock and hope to be out of here by nine. I have too much to do and people to see and I am afraid if I eat a lot I will throw up on them." she says looking at him smirking
"Might not be a bad idea throwing up on them." he says laughing
"Yeah well not gonna do it." she giggles
"Alright I will let you get to your shower. Goodnight And sweet dreams. See you in the morning." he says and hugs her close and kisses her temple
"Goodnight Boo sweet dreams to you as well. See you at nine o'clock." she tells him giving him a hug too
Ana opens her door and walks in and closes it. Christian stands there a few seconds before he walks on down to his lonely room
Ana makes her phone call
"Hey there girl. What's up?" Paula asked
"Hey yourself. You are in a chipper mood. Something going on Ms. Paula?" she asked her
"Oh no not really I'll tell you later. What's up with you?"Paula asked her
"We found out who was spying on Christian at his company. Remember me telling you there were still some people we didn't know about? Well we found the other two. One was..now get this…Carrick Grey's half brother and the other…are you ready girl..the other is not other than Christian's P.A. Andrea Parker." she tells her and waits but nothing no comeback then a she hears Paula sigh loudly
"Oh for the love of Pete you have got to be kidding me? Come on Ana tell me who it was?" she asked her
"I am telling you the truth. Carrick gave her name up earlier today and we have all the emails from Andrea and Carrick for over four years as they made plans to rob Christian and Carrick promised her one million dollars and himself. I kid you not." she tells her
"Oh that is just gross and the bastard is married but I don't guess that mattered since he already cheated. So why not cheat again, eh right?" she says
"So damn true Andrea is married and has a baby. She is sorry as hell too. I bet you she did this cause Christian wouldn't give her the time of day." she says giggling
"Why are you giggling?" she asked her
"Oh sorry I bet Christian that it was the same thing I just told you only bet him my bike and that man blew a fuse. That is why I was giggling." she says
"Oh I take it he didn't know you had a bike. Did you tell him what kind it was?" she asked her
"Yes, I finally told him. I didn't think he would make such a big deal out of it. But damn if he didn't." she says
"Well hell you bought it and you can do what you want with it. By the way, we need to go riding. Whenever you decide to go back to your house. I have mine here too." she says
"Girl you never should have said that." she says laughing
"Ok we are getting nowhere right now I need to ask you a question. That is what I called for. I am going to arrest Andrea Parker in the morning after I get an arrest warrant for her. I want you and Davidson with me. She will be at home with her family cause you know GEH is shut down." she says
"What are we leaving to go to the courthouse? I will meet y'all there. Let me have breakfast and my coffee first though." she says
"Ah girl, we have time for breakfast. We are leavin here at nine o'clock and it's not that far to the courthouse from here. Should be there by nine-fifteen." she tells her
"Good, I will meet you there at nine-fifteen. Do we need a vest?" she asked Ana
"Naw I don't think so. Have your gun, badge and uniform on. I want to see the bitches face when she sees me in uniform. She never liked when I went in to see Christian. See you in the morning. Goodnight." she tells her
"Will do and will see you in the morning. Goodnight Ana." she says and hangs up
She gets her things ready for her shower and heads to the bathroom. Takes her clothes off and throws them in the hamper. Turns on the water and gets it nice and warm. She does her thing and gets out, dries off and brushes her hair and dries it and brushes her teeth and grabs her jammies and hops in bed. Sets her alarm for seven-thirty
Her alarm wakes her and she looks at the phone. Wow, I slept well last night. She gets up and does her morning stuff, gets dressed and walks out into the great room and sees everyone is up.
Good morning y'all. Hope everyone had a good night's rest. I know for some reason I did. I slept all night."she tells them
They all stop and look at her. She is trying to figure out what is wrong
"Hey why are y'all looking at me like that?" she asked them
"Um you are in your uniform, with your gun on your side." Elliot tells her
"Yes El this is the way I dress when I am going out into the field and arresting someone." she tells him
"Ok it's just I have never seen you in your uniform. You look like a sexy little mama in uniform." El says smirking
"El get your head out of the gutter or better yet out of your ass." Christian tells him
Elliot just smiles and walks into the kitchen to get coffee
"Good morning Ana. Yes I slept very well too. Would you like a cup of coffee?" Christian asked her and gives her his usual hug and kiss
"Yes please thank you Boo." she says
"Morning Annie is a beautiful day isn't it? I don't see a cloud in the sky and the sun is shining for once." Ray says
"Yes it is daddy. I didn't notice the sky until you said something." she said
Elliot , Taylor and Gail all say good morning
'Ana would you like me to help you with breakfast?' gail asked her
"Gail I am just going to fix scrambled eggs, air fry some bacon and make toast for us all. Yes, your help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. I have to leave here by nine o'clock. I have to go to the courthouse and then go and arrest another bitch." Ana tells her
"Oh my well lets get breakfast taken care of then." Gail says
They cooked breakfast and all ate at the bar. Ana and Davidson got ready to leave.
"Alright y'all we will be back later. Boo you and El don't forget to make your appointments today. We will talk when I get back." she tells him
"Ana don't worry your pretty little head darlin we will take care of it." Elliot tells her
"Yes Ana we will now go on. I know you have things to do and a bitch to put away." Christian says deadpan face
"We will be back later y'all bye." she says
"Love you Annie." Ray says
"Love you too daddy." she relies
Ana and Davidson walk out of the great room and get in the elevator and go down to the garage and get in the car and head to the courthouse
"Ana did I hear you right last night? Did you tell Christian that you had a bike?" he asked her
"Well I bet him my bike that Andrea was doing this cause she couldn't have him. Lordy mercy the man bout had a conniption." she says laughing
"Yeah we all heard him." he says laughing
They pull into the underground parking and get and walk to the door and go in. Ana looks for Paula
"Ana over here." Paula calls her name
"Hey girl let's do this."Ana says
"Hey Dav how are you doing?" she asked Davidson
"I'm doing well and you Ms. Paula?" he asked her
"Just fine, thank you." she says
"Alright you two come on times a wastin." she tells them
They all walk into the judges chambers and Ana talks to him
"Good morning Judge Anthony, thank you for seeing us so early." she says
"Well Ms. Ana you said it was urgent and it was in regards to Christian Grey." he says
"Yes sir it is. I need a warrant for the arrest of Andrea Parker she was Mr. Christian Grey's P.A. and she was in cahoots with Mr. Carrick Grey giving him information on Christian's dealing and his net worth.
They have been doing this for over four years. No one caught on to it because she was using a computer that was not traceable. Now we have the emails they correspond to each other and what Mr. Carrick Grey promised Mrs. Parker if she would help him, his daughter and new found son that no one knew about and his half brother." she tells him
"Wow, that is a lot of people. I hope they are all locked up in Federal Prison?" he asked her
"Yes your honor they are. Now I need a warrant for Mrs. Parker for Corporate Espionage." she says
"Absolutely Captain Steele and do you have the proof with you of what Mr. Carrick Grey offered Mrs. Parker as compensation for her part in this theft of Mr. Christian Grey and may I see it please?" he asked her
Yes sir right here." she says and hands him the folder with the emails and files in it as proof
The judge gets out of character and whistles loudly
"Sorry about that but damn one million dollars. My lord they were desperate." he says
"Ana I will be right back." he says and walks out
"I have never seen him like that. He has never cracked a smile or acted like that, I guess he is tired of having to file so many arrest warrants here lately but he has three more he has to do but not today." she tells them
"Well I guess there is a time for everything to fall out of character don't you think?" Davidson says
Before anyone could answer the door opens and judge walks back in and closes his door
"Captain Steele here you go. I took the liberty of making copies of everything you have. Here is your folder back. If you need anything else please let me know." he says
"Thank you judge but we are good for now. I will be seeing you later in the week for three more warrants having to do with more people. I will talk to you later about it." she says and gets up and shakes his hand
"Paula good to see you haven't saw you around here lately." he says
"Oh judge, I have been here and there. Working with Ana in these cases is tiring and I need my beauty rest when I can get it." she tells him smiling
"Yes I know you two have been busy. I have been watching the news and I saw the car chase. Good driving." he says
"Judge, we will see you later, gotta run." Ana says
"Yes, Yes go do your duty young lady. Davidson watch out for these young ladies." he says
"Yes sir, your honor." he says and they walk out the door
"Alright let's go take a bitch to prison."Ana says
They get in Ana's car cause it has a bulletproof window that separates the front seats
"Paula put this address in the GPS please." and gives her the paper with Andrea's name on it
They arrive at a very nice home in the suburbs and see that there are about six cars in the driveway
"Looks like they have company or family over. Oh well the bitch is going down. I must say she is doing very well working at GEH. Oh look she stills driving the Audi but not for long." Ana laughs
Ana pulls up in the driveway and they all get out and walk to the front door and Ana knocks
"Hello, may I help you?" the maid says
"Yes, is Andrea Parker at home?" Ana asked her
"Um yes ma'am she is." the maid says
"Would you please go and get her for us My name is Captain Anastasia Steele FBI .I need to speak with her now."Ana tells her
"Yes ma'am right away." she says and walks away
"What is the meaning of this?" some man says walking to the door
"Sir my name is Captain Anastasia Steele FBI and I need to speak to Mrs. Parker and may I ask your name sir? Are you Mrs. Parker's husband?" she asked him
"Yes I am and why do you need to speak to my wife?" he says
"Mr. Parker I will explain after I speak to your wife now please call her to the door." Ana says getting upset
"After you tell me why."he says
"Very well I have a warrant for her arrest now, call your wife to the door or I am coming in I have a warrant for her." Ana tells him
"Andrea please come here." he calls her name
"What in the world is going on Derrick?" she asked him then she looks up and stops when she sees Ana Steele in uniform and knows she is done for
Ana knew the second Andrea knew why she was there
"Andrea Parker you are under arrest for spying on your boss Mr. Christian Grey . You are under arrest for helping Mr. Carrick Grey and accepting the compensation of one million dollars. You are under arrest for Corporate Espionage." Ana tells her
"I have no idea what the hell you are talking about and why are you in that uniform?" she asked Ana
"I am Captain Anastasia Steele FBI. Mrs. Parker please turn around and put your hands behind your back." Ana tells her
"You have the right to remain silent."
"Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law."
"You have the right to an attorney,"
"If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be provided for you."
"Do you understand the rights I have just read to you?"
"With these rights in mind, do you wish to speak to me?"
"I have nothing to say to you and I do not wish to speak to you. I want my lawyer." Andrea says
'Don't worry honey I will have Albert there as soon as possible. Captain Steele, where are you taking my wife?" he asked her
"Federal Prison do you know where that is Mr. Parker?" she asked him
"Yes Captain I do. Andrea we won't be long behind you I love you." he tells her
They walk to the car and Paula puts Andrea in the backseat and buckles her in. She goes around to her side and gets in. Ana and Davidson get in the front seats and she drives to the prison
