"Didn't stop you before." I said sipping my champagne.
"When was this?" Steven asked
"Before we were together." Dad said
"I assume Claudia doesn't know?" Steven said.
"She would've led with that." Sam said.
"Congratulations, Cristal." Fallon said
"Fallon." Dad warned.
"That means you got away with it." Fallon said. Dad threw a glass at Fallon but hit the fire place behind us. I jumped and Fallon and Steven wrapped their arms around me.
"Well done you scared Gabbie." Steven said pulling me next to him.
"Aw, Daddy, you missed." Fallon said
"We are not doing this now. Everyone will be pulling us apart over this. We need to come together to protect our family." Dad said.
"You mean our business." Cristal said.
"Same thing." Fallon and Dad said.
"You wanted her to be your COO. Let's see what she's made of." Fallon said.

I was dressed and ready for college. I walked downstairs and sat next to Fallon.
"Hey. How are you up so early?" Fallon asked.
"It's my first day back at college." I said.
"You'd better not be staying in a dorm." Fallon teased.
"I'm staying in a tent." I joked.
"You can not joke about that." Fallon said as Dad walked in.
"Morning, star shine."Fallon said
"You're chipper today." Dad said.
"Oh, just catching up on news."Head over heels at Carrington Manor.""Down goes the bride." "Carrington PR flop."" Fallon said.
