Claudia went out of the Hospital elated to the max. ' Just wait and see who comes on the top after today, everything belongs to me; I'm the rightful heiress. I will get rid of anyone comes in my way!'
"What my driver left? Are you sure? Did he say why?" Claudia is speaking to Sophia's driver.
" He needed to put gas in the car and needed to eat. He will be back right away." Sophia's driver replied.
" You take me then! Mother can take my car in return. I need to be ahead of them in the venue; I cannot be late." She ordered Sophia's driver. The driver did not have any choice, got in the car and drove off Claudia in the backseat of the car.

Sophia embraced her mother-in-law, and quietly whispered to her ear; "Whatever you might be thinking; the answer is yes!" Turned her head toward Ann and motion and said; " Let's go! Time for showtime."
Ann gave the old lady a nod, said her goodbye and followed Sophia out the Hospital.
"What do you mean Claudia took off with the car?" Sophia is asking the Security Guard, who's scratching his head not knowing what to reply.
"That bitch!" Sophia snarled. "Edna! Go get us another car and make it quick!" She ordered.
"Mrs. Tan, if you don't mind riding with us, we have space in the car?" Lea offered while looking at Ann for approval.
" Yes! Mother, do ride with us, it will save us time. You might be late if you have to wait for the driver to get another car." Ann is coaxing Sophia to agree.
"If you have no issue me riding in the same car with you, I would love too!" Sophia replied happily.
Edna, who's quietly observing everything that's happening, smiled to herself; followed along and got in the car with the three ladies.

Board meeting venue:
" What do you mean the meeting is on hold? " One of the Board members exclaimed.
"We understand that CEO Tan health is critical; however our lively hood is at stake as well. We cannot wait. We must begin as time indicated.!" Another board member said it intensely.
" Now-Now-Now! Calm down, everyone! What are another 30 minutes, they are already on the way here? Moreover, CEO Go had guaranteed you all already that the Company will not go down. He will be helping the person that will become Interim CEO." Elder Tan is trying to calm the members of the board.
"Let's wait and be patient all right! bickering will not help the matter at hand." Elder Tan said desperately.
" All right!" Everyone said in unison.
' This girl better be as good as Mrs. Tan made her out to be If I'm to convince this whole bunch of money hungry Board members. I have to give them something exceptional in return.' Elder Tan was in deep thought while waiting.
-------------------------------------------------
Claudia was ahead of the four ladies on the road to the venue. Ann's car following behind not too far away. Sophia and Ann are conversing how the plan should proceed. Making sure there are no loopholes. They cannot take a chance.
In the next lane, a motorcycle with a rider and a driver with helmet on are seen going the same directions with the two cars. Suddenly, when they became side to side with the car, the rider pulled what it looks like a Semi-Automatic Nine-millimeter pistol. Pointed it toward the car in the other lane then: " BANG! BANG! BANG!"
