All Chapters of Rick's Dilemma: Chapter 121 - Chapter 130

Old Wilson walked into Debbie's office to find her drinking tea with the man he knew to be the Finance Director of the firm, Mr. Boyd. He was curious as to what prompted Debbie to seek him out. Debbie put her cup down and stood up at the approach of Old Wilson. "Thank you for comimg so quickly! I have some concerns that I would like your help with. This morning, I dismissd Ms. Grant, the head of personel. I found out that she had been usng my office in my absence, and had even had a lock installed on my door. I suspect that there is something more going on here, and asked Director Boyd to come along to help us investgate the matter." Director Boyd shot up out of his chair and cried " I know nothing about what she was doing! I swear it had nothing to do with me!" "What has nothing to do with you? Why did you say that?" Old Wilson caught that slip of the tongue that Director Boyd had just made. "I...I...I just mean that if she was up to something, I don't have anything to

The news of the Green family disappearence spread around Tang like wildfire. It was assumed that they had disappeared to avoid repaying the huge debt that they still owed the banks and suppliers around town. In the long run, no one was really surprised. Everyone knew that the Greens' didn't have any assets left. So the banks had already written off the remaining debt. On the cargo ship, Old Madame Green was very depressed. She realised that she would never again see her beloved Tang. She had lived there for her entire life, and as they drifted farther away from it, it was like experiencing her life ebbing away as well. Old Madame's only living son tried to comfort her as best he could. Mark had some idea that his mother was spiraling into despair. If she kept this up, she might not even make it to Africa. She had not eaten in days, and the loss of weight was starting to show. Old Madame crossed over into delusions about a week into the voyage. She started muttering to herself

Lois was frustrated by what Rick and Debbie had planned for her. The triplets were almost 2 months old, and she had yet to see them. "So I am not even allowed to see my grandchildren? Will they never know their own grandmother? This is intolerable!" Debbie sneered at Lois. "Do you think that after what you have done, that we would want you anywhere near the boys? You have no right to see them! You wanted them to lose their father and grow up not knowing what a loving and caring man that he is. Not knowing just how much he loves each of them. You would have deprived them of that? How can you think that you have any right to be in their lives at all? But I will tell you what I will do. I will send you pictures of them from time to time. By the way, their names are Bruce, Byron and Brian. named after my father, Rick's father and Old Wilson. You will not be allowed to come near the boys until you can prove to us both that you have changed. Otherwise, forget it!" Lois screamed "Th

Old Wilson greeted his Young Master with a warm welcome and a cup of tea. As they sat in the living room of his house, Old Wilson looked troubled. Rick asked "Old Friend, what is the matter? You seem disturbed." Old Wilson put his tea cup down and looked over at Rick and said "Young Master, there are problems starting up over in the Paris office. It started over a contract for the shipping route from France to the Americas. There was fierce competition for that contract, and the biggest loser was the Harris family from Charleston, South Carolina in the United States. They have started nasty rumors about the way you do business. They have suggested that you threatened the client to give you the contract, or face bankruptcy. Although the client, the Neil family in Paris, have not confirmed the rumor, a lot of our other clients have been dubious to sign new contracts with us. This must be nipped in the bud before it spreads any further. The way that I see it, we must make a trip to

Ms. Amanda Simpson was outraged at the desertion of her cronies. She felt that she held the moral high ground in this matter, and that her beliefs were far superior to Ms. Madison. Whether or not that she had no concrete proof of Ms. Madison's sins made no difference to her. She just knew that she was right. She wanted justice for herself, if not for the others that had abandoned her and her cause. She was bound and determined to see this through. Debbie looked at her with distain. Who was this woman who thought herself better than someone else? Even if Racheal forgave her, Debbie did not want a person like Ms. Simpson working for her. "So, Ms. Simpson, what are your plans now?" Ms. Simpson replied "I want to take this to the highest court! I know that I am right, and I will find a way to prove it! You will see that in the end, good people will always prevail." Debbie smurked and said "Well then, I guess that we will see you in court!" As she turned to walk out of the r
