Rick's Dilemma Chapter 251
After having the Wests sign all the relavant property transfers, Mr. Hanes released the men and their entourage. They were leaving the building and were on the way to their cars, when they were surrounded by policemen. A Lead Detective walked over and said "Mr. Timothy West and Mr. Robin West, you are both under arrest. The rest of these people will also be taken into custody. Your charges will be explained to you after we get to the station." Old Wilson went straight to the court office to file all of the property transfers, and listed them in Rick's name or in the RBG Group's name. Once that was complete, the group headed for the office building of the Westhouse World Transportation. As they walked in, the whole place was in a state of chaos. Once Old Wilson had filed the paperwork, somehow the local news outlets had gotten hold of the news. It spread like wildfire. No one even stopped to think of the long reaching effects that it would have on the shipping industry in the re

Rick returned to Robin's former office. He went to the safe to inventory it's contents. What he found was several exquisite diamond necklaces, diamond rings and several diamond bracelets. In addition, there were other parure sets in rubys, sapphires and emeralds. They would make a fine addition to the sets he had been collecting for his wife and daughters. The diamond set and the sapphires set would go to Debbie, while the ruby set to Ellie and the emeralds were destined for Ella. The cash totaled tens of millions in US dollars. It would take several suitcases to pack it all to take to the bank. Then he had another thought. All of the men on this trip had run a great risk in coming along. Although Matthew was not in any real danger, he did have that idea to look at the banking side of the Westhouse matter. So Rick decided to divide the money between them all. That meant that each one would recieve just over fifteen million in cash. It was a lot of money, but for the loyalty and dev

Things were coming to an end in the Mombasa office. The signage had been changed, and the local RBG Shipping office had also been intergrated into the larger facilitiy. This brought the staff back up to full strength. Matthew had inspected the new apartment building, and pronounced it worthy of occupation. It really was a fine building, with plenty of parking on the side. The Managing Director of the original office became the Director of the new office. He was Mr. Ken Hollingsworth. He had been working for RBG Shipping since Rick's father had started the business. He took his job very seriously, and Old Wilson had complete confidence in him, so Rick did too. So the last stop on this trip was Cairo to check in on the office there. The general was looking forward to seeing Anita again. Since they didn't know whether or not Anita would be accompanying them back to Fing City, Rick decided to give the men their gift on the flight to Cairo. He did not want to embarrass Anita

So now they had landed in Cairo. It brought back pleasant memories for Rick, Matthew and Brandon from the last time that they were here. They, along with Debbie, had toured the immediate area, and had seen some amazing things. They had made memories together that they each would carry with them for the rest of their lives. They were going to stay in the same hotel as last time, since Anita was still accommodated there as well. They were only going to be there one or two nights. Old Wilson wanted to be sure the new Managing Director was settled in, and that Anita could leave with the sense of a job well done. They all went out to dinner after Anita got back from the office. She was surprised to see them all lounging around the hotel lobby waiting for her. The one that she was really happy to see above the others was General Han. As soon as their eyes met, they both knew that they belonged together. The general had a question to ask Anita, but now was not the time. He decided

Now that things were starting to get back to normal, Rick had a few things that he wanted to take care of. When he and Debbie were facing hard times over her health issues, he had very quikly made some provisions for his family. Now it was time to take a closer look at his business affairs and make some more comphensive moves. Not only to protect his children and wife, but those around him as well. His mother and her husband, Aunt Alice and Li Fan, even Matthew and Brandon would be included. Since Rick's family was no more, he and Debbie had created their own New Green Family. Not everyone's last name was Green, but that didn't matter to him. What mattered, was that he cared for these people. And they cared for him and Debbie. So it was time for a visit with Old Wilson. Old Wilson had been expecting Rick to want to do something like this for some time. So he had been giving the matter a lot of thought. Rick said "Old friend, I want to reorganise the company. I think that we

Rick's next stop was to pay a visit to Larry Watters at the Creative Renovations office in the RBG LLC Tower downtown. When he was shown into Larry's office, they greeted each other warmly. Rick then said "Larry, I have a project for you. I want to build a room size vault in Ting Gap. Recently, Debbie and I have acquired a lot of expensive jewels. Some of it is being kept for my daughters, and the rest is for Debbie. But in total, there are several billion dollars worth of pieces and I want to keep them safe. The room needs to be fire proof as well as secure. Can you do it?" Larry replied "That's a piece of cake. The only issue is, where do you want this room located and what kind of door do you want. Will it have a secret lock or combination to it, or do you want to use keys? There is also the option to use a finger print lock or even a facial recognition system." Rick was astonished that there were so many options. He said "Well, whatever you think will be the most secure

The Dress Hunt began on the most fashionable shopping street in Shanghai. It had every major international fashion house represented. After going from shop to shop. Debbie found the perfect gown. It was a Versace design that was strapless. This would show off the jewels to their best advantage. The color was deep royal purple. A very rich shade that reflected the regal nature of the woman who wore it. Debbie was in love with it at first sight. Betty found a gown of red satin that fit her like a glove. She was a tall woman with a great shape. So the gown would be a hit. Lois was harder to fit. She was in really good shape, but was on the short side. It took most of the day to find a gown that was at least up to the rest. But in the end, they found a gorgeous gown in emerald green. It was of a simple design, but one that fit her personality. Aunt Alice got a sky blue dress from Dior that had a beautifully accented bodice. She was estatic that it was already her size, and need

The day of Debbie's birthday arrived. It was a beautiful early summer day, with blue skies and no rain in the forecast. Rick was excited to get the day started. He had thought of a few surprises along the way to the build up of tonight's party. To start, he had gotten each child a gift for their mother. Of course they had no idea what was so special about this day, as they were too young to understand. But Rick wanted Debbie to share this day with them as well. The gifts from the boys were some simple scarves that Rick had found in Cairo. The girls gave her some handmade soaps from Kenya. Debbie was delighted with them all. Next came Breakfast, Rick and Matthew had a talk earlier. Matthew had asked Rick when he planned to present Debbie with her necklace. Rick was curiuos to know why Matthew wanted to know. Matthew finally had to confess the reason. "Well, after you left us after buying the necklace in Cairo, you went back to the hotel. We returned to the jewelry shop and bough

It was a sad day for Rick. Today, he was to bury his beloved mentor, Old Wilson. Old Wilson had been frail, and his health had declined slowly. If someone didn't see him every day, they would notice a vast difference . But since Rick would go down to see his old friend regularly, he did not realise just how bad Old Wilson had gotten. It was on such a visit that Rick found Old Wilson sitting in his favorite chair out in his back garden. At first Rick just thought he was asleep, as Old Wilson would nap out there almost every day. But after sitting down beside him, Rick finally realised that Old Wilson had passed on. It broke Rick's heart. Old Wilson had left instructions as to what he wanted done after his death. He asked that Rick bury him next to Ruth, his wife, and their son, Christopher. It was out in the countryside, north of Fing City. Rick had made all of the arrangements, and that morning, he and Debbie headed out. He had made the announcement of Old Wilson's death to the com

After the kidney transplant, Debbie's health improved tremendously. She had regained her strength and stamina to the point that she was able to resume her duties at RBG LLC. Over the years, she had expanded offices in all of the major cities in the south. Every big company clamoured to have RBG LLC handle their accounting needs. It became a status symbol to have Debbie work for them. After such a huge expansion, Debbie and Rick had set their sights in a more global presence. So they started with Cairo, Eygpt. Since Anita had done such a good job organising that pharmaceutical office years ago, it had become the premier branch of RBG Pharmaceuticals. So it was a natural place to start the global expansion of RBG LLC. Rick and Debbie spent several months in Cairo setting up the branch, and even acquired a residence in Eygpt. It was an expansive villa right on the banks of the river Nile. Larry had designed it to reflect the location and local culture. The villa was named 'Alhudu

As time flew by, Lois had been in Jelang and had been doing very well with her shop 'Second Chance'. The local population had, for the most part, forgotten about her sordid past. She was a valued member of the business community. Last yesr, she had been nominated to run for the local Chamber of Commerce Chairman. She was of course flattered to be nominated, but was very surprised when she actually won the position. It was the peak of her life to have been given this post. Never in her wildest dreams did she ever imagine that she would reach such a height in her life. Even though it was just in a small village such as Jelang, the fact that she was overwhelmingly the popular choice humbled her even more. Rick and Debbie both were just so proud of Lois, and even came to her investiture ceremony, along with all of the rest of the Thomas family. Howard had really been putting his all into the Thomas Shelter. Along the way, he met a very nice lady, who had come in for an interview fo

The day dragged on as George frantically looked for his missing man. Since the man had no pockets, he didn't have his cell phone on him. So he could not call the general to tell him what was going on. He had all of his contact numbers in his phone, so he had not bothered to memorize any of them. After a long afternoon of being interrogated by the police, they at last let him make a call. He decided to call the resort, and if nothing else, he could leave a message for his boss. After this was done, the jailer put the man in a cell to wait for further instructions from the police Chief in charge. George finally went to the front desk to ask the desk clerk where the nearest police station was, thinking that it was a place to start looking, and to file a missing person's report. The desk clerk then remembered to give him the message that had come in for him, and it just so happened to be from his missing man. George went and sought out Matthew and Rick to accompany him to the p

After ensuring Su Ma had everything that she needed, the group left to return to the yacht. They were to spend the next few days at sea. Everyone was back on board, then they set off for their next port of call, Manilla, Philippines. It was an exotic port, and nothing like anything any of the group had experienced before. They had a wonderful time seeing all of the sights. Then they set sail for Singapore, Malaysia. This trip was a smorgasbord of many different cultures and sights, not to mention landscapes. Singapore was a bustling city, full of high end shopping centers with branded stores, as well as the local cultural sights. Museums, art galleries and the like. The kids especially liked the Singapore Zoo. It was filled with all of the animals that they had studied in school. The adults were partial to the Singapore Botanical Gardens and the National Orchid Garden. They all enjoyed the trip to China Town. It was a taste of home for them, but in a different way. There was really

The years had flown by. The Greens had expanded their businesses in every direction. The most profitable were the ocean shipping company and the pharmaceuticals. Medical supplies was running a close third. Rick was planning a big suprise for the kids' ninth and tenth birthdays next month. They had grown so much, and still all of them got along so well with each other. Li Fan had gone on to be a managing director of one of Rick's local offices, and he was proud of his work. His son, Ricky, was looking more and more like him every day. Alice was a very good mother. Ricky had grown up with the Green children, and seemed more like one of the siblings, rather than just a cousin. George and Anita's daughter Leah was also part of the "tribe". Since George paid close attention to the security of Ting Gap, Leah had grown up in the house as well. It was an exclusive daycare that Rick and Debbie were proud to provide for the two kids. All of the Green kids were very protective of them

General Han gathered all of the evidence that he had collected and called his friend at the police station. They sent the fraud investigation team over right away to go over the documents. They agreed with George that this was an embezzlement case, cut and dried. After informing Debbie and Rick of their findings, Debbie called a meeting of those involved. The head of personel walked into the conference room, stopped dead in his tracks and turned to flee. He was stopped by the security guards at the door. He was made to sit down and shut his mouth. Next, the other two culprits walked in together, chatting with each other. They sat down across from the upper managment team and waited. George introduced everyone. "Mr. Waits is the head of personel, this is Mr. Floyd, head of accounting, and that is Mr. Grooms, the managing director. Gentlemen, this is Mrs. Green, CEO of RBG LLC. The man next to her is Mr. Green, Chairman and owner of the RBG Group. Then we have Mr. Moore, Vice Pr

The crowd outside the venue were so excited to see their favorite stars and public officals as they arrived at the gala. The men dressed in tuxedos and the beautiful gowns that the women wore were worth standing in the night air to see. All of the attendees made use of a step-and-repeat banner set up for press photos. These glamour shots would been seen all over the media in the coming days. But the most stunning had been Debbie in all of her finery. Her jewels shone like the stars in the heavens. They cast a glow around her like nothing else could. The evening was filled with surprises, and a lot of money was raised for the Green Children's Foundation. Brandon was thrilled with both the turnout and the donations total. It had been a very successful night. The day after the gala, everybody at the Green villa slept in late. They only got up in time for a scumptous brunch prepared by Chef Matthew. It was well worth dragging themselves out of bed for. Then everyone started to get

Once again, the Thomas family came together for a family weekend. The highlight of the weekend was of course the gala for the Green Children's Foundation. Since Jonathan and Betty lived in Beijing, they were to be included in all of the festivities as well. Rick and Debbie loved having their family around them, and this weekend was no exception. Rick and Debbie's Beijing villa was not as big as Ting Gap, but no less opulent. After all, Larry had done the design work and supervised the work himself. It was large enough to hold most everyone coming from out of town. Lois, Rebecca, the Old Thomas', Howard, Heyward and his wife , Aunt Alice and Li Fan and of course Matthew and Brandon. So the Green mansion was full to the brim. Matthew decided to cook on the first night of the gathering. Dinner on that Friday night was a master piece of culinary delights. Matthew rarely got to indulge himself in the kitchen of late, so he went all out to prepare a meal fit for a royal banquet. His dish
