Greenlee had called her father, Jackson to meet her at the Confusion bar, because their was something that she needed to talk to him about. She hadn't really discussed hers and Leo's upcoming wedding, and she hadn't asked for his blessing yet, and if anything she respected her father's opinion very highly. She walked up to the bar, and looked to Thomas one of the bartenders. "Hey thomas, can you get me a vodka and tonic on the rocks, please.." she said as Thomas poured the ingredients into the glass and gave it to her. "Thanks" she said as she slipped him a twenty. "Keep the change dear.." she said as she sat down, and Thomas smiled and thanked her.
She then heard her father's voice behind her, as she turned around and looked to him. She got up and hugged him. "Oh daddy, I'm so glad you came, because we need to talk, and it's very important." she said as she sat back down and looked up to him once more.

"Greenlee!" Jack got his daughter's attention as soon as he got inside the bar and saw his daughter. He gave her a big hug. "Honey I am so glad you called! It is great to see you!"
"Okay..what is it? Anything you need help with or you just want to talk?" Jack sat down next to his daughter and smiled that Jackson smile. Greenlee was his only biological daughter and they had a special connection even if they did not meet each other until Greenlee was an adult.

"Well, dad this is more than just a talk. I need something from you. Actually, no I want something from you, and I have failed to ask it of you, when I got engaged to Leo. I want to know that me and Leo have your blessing, because if I don't then I won't marry him daddy.." she said as she looked over to him, and took a sip from her drink. "Although he is the love of my life, you are my dad and will always be my dad" she said as she then looked away.
"So, do we have your blessing for us getting married, or do I need to call Leo now, and call the whole thing off?" she asked as she then looked back to her father.

"Of course you have my blessing Greenlee! You know..maybe I was not Leo's biggest fan. Okay..maybe not a fan at all. But he makes you happy Greenlee and that makes me happy. Besides I think I have finally come to see why you love him so much." Jack smiled at his daughter brightly.
"And don't you dare call off the wedding! I already have my tux all ready and your sister Lily has been looking forward to being a bridesmaid again ever since she heard the news okay? Besides..I hear the guy giving you away is pretty easy on the eyes. And if I recall you were not his wife's biggest fan either but you knew how much he loved her and you knew how much she meant to him." Jack told her honestly.

"Well dad, believe it or not I have actually grown to love Erica as a mother, which is shocking I know" Greenlee said as she then took another sip of her drink, and then let out a sigh. "I am happy that we have your blessing now, and I am happy for you and Erica with this new child that is on the way" she said as she looked over to her father. "Anyways, their was another reason on why I needed to talk to you dad." she said as she got out a few papers from her briefcase that was sitting in the barstool next to hers.
"I called Erica a few weeks ago to come over to Fusion, because their was some things that looked odd on the financial front. It seems as though someone has taken money from one of the fusion accounts, and it was taken out three months ago." she said as she handed him the papers. "Erica even said that it looked odd, and we think it is someone that is inside the Fusion office..we just don't know who" she said as she then looked down at her drink.

"It is but you do not know how happy that makes me. And I am glad that we are having another baby too. I was in shock at first but I am thrilled now. And to hear that you are happy makes me even happier." Jack gave Greenlee a smile.
"Really? That seems so strange to me. You guys all seem like a family over there. Erica has not said anything to me about it. Have you been looking into it at all or do you know if she has been? Of course if it is someone in the company you have to get them out of there before they do anything else to your accounts."

"Erica has been helping me on it, but I am just going to give it some more time, and see if the person who has been stealing this money will slip up.." Greenlee said as she looked over to her father. "Anyways, enough talk about Fusion. Their is actually one thing that I would like you to look into, if you can. I am guessing that you heard about Gillian Andrassy being alive?" she asked, as her father nodded to her question. "Well, I don't buy her story. I mean, everyone has thought that she has been dead for ten years!" she said as she then looked down.
"I..I just can't see Ryan getting hurt, and before you say anything else, I know that you are not Ryan's biggest fan, but Gillian was his life back then, and now he has moved on, but with Gillian back, it could only mean trouble for him, and for everyone else" Greenlee said as she then looked up, and back over to her father.

"I actually did not know anything about that. Gillian is alive? How..how did you find that out Greenlee? Have you seen her at all? You know I cannot look into anything without proof. And I am going to need help. Have you talked to Jesse Hubbard or Tad Martin about this? I mean I can do it but I just know I am going to need someone with more investigative skills."
"Honey why are you concerned with Ryan in the first place? He hurt you so much and if Gillian is back and is alive then how do you know this is not the best thing for him. I just think you should be concentrating your energy on your wedding." Jack gave his daughter a small smile.

"Yes, I saw her at Jake and Amanda's wedding, and she was very much alive. Anyways it's not like she was on the invitation list at all. She just showed up, unannounced! I haven't talk to Jesse or Tad about this. Jesse didn't know Gillian, but Tad did, as well as all of us did" she said as she looked to her father. She then noticed her father get concerned when she had mentioned Ryan to him. "Dad, he's Ryan. No matter how much he hurt me, he will always be my friend, because of everything we have been through together.." she said as she then looked down.
"Look, I don't expect you to understand why I am so concerned about Ryan when it comes to Gillian Andrassy, but that woman can only be bad news for him, and for all of us. I am sure of it!" Greenlee said as she looked back up to her father, and into his eyes.

"Okay..I can respect that but was Gillian not the love of his life Greens?" Jack glanced over at his daughter.
"I am just saying that if she is back maybe she and Ryan might reconnect. I think that if he loves her as much as he did before then this could be the best thing for both of them."

"Okay, well if that is the case, and if Gillian wants to be with Ryan then why did she almost crash Jake and Amanda's wedding? You do know that Gillian and Jake were once married, before she married Ryan the second time, right?" Greenlee asked as she looked over to her father. "Believe me I know Gillian a whole better than you think i do, dad. She and I were sworn enemies back then, and yes it was my fault that we were, but I have changed, and maybe Gillian is not the same Gillian that she once was." Greenlee said as she shook her head, and finished off her drink in two sips.
"Just do me a favor, and go and talk with her, and I promise that you will see what I am talking about once your through talking with that woman.." she said as she then pushed the glass away from her, and looked back to her father. "Can you do this for me? Please?" she pleaded to him.

"Honey I do not even know the woman!" Jack protested.
"But if it will make you happy then I will go talk to her. Do you know where she lives or even where she is staying? I have a feeling it might be a bit impossible to get ahold of her if I am not even sure where she is located."

"She is staying at the Valley Inn, room 403" she said as she looked over to her father, and then kissed him on the cheek. "Thanks dad, your the best" she said with a smile. She then glanced at her watch and noticed the time. "Oh, I must have forgotten what the time was, because I am late for my meeting upstairs.." she said as she then grabbed her father's hand and squeezed lightly.
"I really do appreciate you agreeing to go and talk to Gillian. It means the world to me, and also let me know if there is anything that I need to do for you or Erica.." she said as she then let go of her father's hand. "Okay, well I love you.." she said as she then walked off in the other direction.
