Michael stays with Sharon as the other brothers as a group walk into the Cosmo headquarters. As they do so all talking stops until they get on the elevator then whispering about what could be happening starts up.

When the elevator stops on other floors those waiting to get on decide to wait. There is an air about the Northrup brothers that speaks of anger barely held in and no one wants to be the one that they unleash that temper on.

Finally the elevator stops on the floor that has the conference rooms. The receptionist for that floor tries to stop them but Darrin merely looks at her and she freezes in fear.

If they weren't so angry the brothers would be chuckling at her reaction. But they are angry and they are here for a reason.

"No need to call security, unless it is to have yourself escorted out." Darrin says throwing down a file on the conference room table as he breaks into the trustees meeting.

"As of now, this company belongs to Northrup Enterprises. Z if you would take your place, thank you."

"What the hell is the meaning of this?" The now ousted CEO of Cosmo Group demands.

"We have taken over your company. I would think that would be self evident. Not only do we have majority shares, as of last night," the final holdout sold to Z shortly after Darrin had told them to save their money. Z saw no reason not to go ahead and buy the shares, "But we have enough evidence of wrongful doings to have the company shut down." Darrin would rather have shut down the company but since he wants to give a large part of it to Sharon and Z he will allow Z to take over. Besides the hundreds of innocent workers don't deserve to lose their jobs.

Shocked the Cosmo brothers just stare at Darrin and his brothers as they take their places and the others leave the room. Most of them are smirking as they do so. They had suspected foul play in many of the business dealings but had been blocked from finding the truth. They are quite pleased at being able to sell their shares to those they know have a good reputation if a bit of a shark like in business.

Shortly after the Northrup brothers settle in their chairs some officers come in and arrest the two brothers that are still taking in the loss of their company.

"Oh, by the way," Darrin tucks in a manila envelope in each of the brothers waistbands as they are being led out, "You are served." 

The brothers get some down right evil smiles on their faces as the men are led out in handcuffs. One of the men looks lost and angry and demands, "What the hell did we ever do to you to deserve this?"

"Your bitch sister decided to assault our sister. You can thank Angelina for this action." Darrin happily replies to the older brother, Kason Cosmo. 

"Now what, Z?" Darrin asks of his youngest brother once the door is closed on the Cosmo family and the officers.

Z tells them what he would like to do and they are all smiling once he is finished. "We will agree with what you have outlined. Go ahead and get started." Darrin tells him as the others are nodding with his words.

What he is suggesting is tricky and could end in the total destruction of the company or it will give it a great many dividends. They don't really care which happens since they are more worried about their baby sister at this time.

Tristan Townsend has had better days, much better days in fact. He thought that he would be fine, untraceable but finding officers at his house for a second time within a week tells him that he's going to wish that he'd never been born.

"Officers, might I deliver this to him before you cuff him?" The same man that had brought the papers to Angelina, the butler and Mrs. Townsend asks diffidently.

The officers nod while watching Tristan closely.

"You've been served. Have a nice day." The man says softly but happily as he steps out of the house. He starts whistling as he makes his way to his car. He had heard what that bastard had done to Ms. Carmichael and was more than happy to serve those papers. He waits in his car to see that bastard brought out in cuffs and smiles as the officers are less then gentle as they put him in their car.

Sharon watches as Tristan receives the papers and notices that he seems to blanch. Then while he's still in shock from being served more legal papers the officers arrest him for two counts of conspiracy to commit murder and one count of conspiracy of first degree murder and given his rights.

Lawrence is at her side and is watching with her.

"Now what, Ms Carmichael?" Lawrence asks her being professional.

"Time to start phase two. Make sure the list of his assets is complete. It didn't matter in the divorce but it will here. I don't want him left with anything by the time I get done with him." Sharon tells him distracted.

"I have everything we were able to dig up. My people weren't able to trace some possible accounts and properties though. They got lost in the bullshit they are buried in."

Sharon gets a delighted smile on her face and pulls up the information she needs to start her own investigation into Tristan's life. It takes her a few hours but she finds every last dime Tristan has tried to hide.

While Sharon had been busy doing that Delaney is escorted in and watches in awe as Sharon works her magic.

When Sharon comes up for air and notices Delaney she gives her a task.

"Were you able to find any connection Tristan and his mother about the conspiracy to kill me and my child?"

"Nothing electronic. He has visited her once in prison once he was released but nothing since."

"Those prison visits are monitored and recorded. Get the recording and see if she is made aware of the plot to kill my child and me." Sharon orders and then submerges herself once more in Tristan's assets.

Delaney doesn't even try to talk to Sharon at this point, she knows it's pointless. Lawrence has let himself out of the room so he doesn't hear Sharon's orders for Delaney to break the law. Plausible deniability is absolutely necessary at this point.

"Shit!" Delaney's exclamation is enough to break Sharon's concentration and bring her back to the here and now.

"What is it?"

"Listen to this," Delaney says in response and plays the recording of Honey and Tristan Townsend.

It is clear that Honey is in fact behind Tristan going after her and her child.

Sharon nods and calls an acquaintance of hers at the police department before sending them the information to have Honey Townsend's visitor call listened to. The contact assures her that he will do so. After he listens to what is said he sets about getting an arrest warrant on the same charges as Tristan had been arrested on earlier.

Sharon takes out her phone, "Start the paperwork for legal action against Honey Townsend as well, Lawrence. It was her idea to begin with."

Sharon puts her laptop away and stretches. The doctor is worried about after effects of the poison so she was kept in the hospital for observation for a couple of days. She's already sick of being there.

"Hungry, Sharon?" Delaney asks as she too finishes with her computer.

"Not for the hospital food. It's better than most but..."

Delaney smirks, "Your brothers have instructed to have food brought to you if you wish. What would you like?"

Sharon stares at her in disbelief before shaking it off and giving her an order. Delaney  calls it in and is assured that it would be there in half an hour.

"Damn, I guess money does talk." It would take nearly that long to just get the food to the hospital forget about the time it would take to make.

"I think your brothers are being rather fast and free with their helicopter." Delaney says at the shocked girl before her.

"Yeah, I guess. So tell me, have you and Z set a time for your date?"

"Well, you kinda had a medical emergency so that hasn't happened yet. Add in him taking over the Cosmo empire's business and I don't think it will be happening any time soon."

Sharon is stretching and yawning when Delaney tells her this and she freezes mid yawn. "What?" She finally manages to get out.

Delaney looks at Sharon and blinks, "Didn't they tell you? They are taking over the Cosmo albatross as Z terms it. Darrin is giving it to Z to deal with, not sure why him." Delaney is a bit bitter at that part of the news. She was really looking forward to going on that date with Z.

Sharon stares at her nonplussed for a few seconds before going into uncontrollable laughter. Angelina started the death of her family and doesn't even know it yet.
