uncovering lies

most of my life I knew I would take over for my father but I wasn't expecting it to be so soon. my father's right hand man now sits in front of me "your father left last night and didn't come back" I hear him say. looking up at him from my breakfast I know that look I've seen it all before my father sent him to tell me when my mother died he has the same expression on his face as he did then. "what are you saying Jason" my voice coming out in a whisper. he says something but I don't hear him muling over his words in my head. getting up I hear him calling my name but I need to see for myself. I walk to my father's room I can hear Jason falling in line behind me knowing I need to check opening the door without knocking. my father's bed looks in touched. dread fills the pit of my stomach. "when last night" my voice coming out in a cold command. "last night it doesn't look like he took anything" jason replies looking surprised at my coldness but quickly recovers. "you know what that mean Kyra you have to take over he won't be back I don't think he took everything important to him" everything except for me I think to myself.i brush off the bitter feeling. "ok here is what gonna happen we are going to throw a ball I want everything in order before tomorrow night there we will announce me taking over but express that my father is on vacation and has put everything into my hand send all the family's invites even or enemies we cannot let them see what's going on" jason nods and dose as I ask I walk to my office sitting down in my chair behind my desk I try my father phone but get no answer. sighing I put my phone down trying not to let my emotions take control. "don't let them see your emotions Kyra" I repeat my father's words he told me long ago. I call Jason "I want you to check every security camera system in this city and the areas around it" keeping my voice calm and cold. "yes ma'am" the line gose dead. I call my father 3rd in command to come to my office. he's an older man my father's age. sibra I greet him he smiles sadly at me "Kyra you up for this" i nod. "I need all of my father's files sorted and brought to my office" he nods in understanding that I don't want to wast anymore time. I work for the next few hours after sibra bring in everything I asked for I sort as much as I can when there is a knock at my office door Jason walks in a second later "boss everything is set for tomorrow night I even invited his enemies they won't try anything in our taritory but we will up security just in case".
