-Rabena's POV : After an emotional story and embrace . The ballroom was filled with tears from the story of the little orphan girl and disgust for her biological family . Shorts from the crowd irrupted towards the Crests and Thomas , Daniel and Darius looked at their parents with disgust hot said nothing for they also participated in the mistreatment and abuse of their sister . As the family finished embracing Rabena , she made her way over to Thomas and the Crests . Pure hatred and disgust rested within her eyes , " Thomas , you should know I had a meeting with your grandmother regarding the business deal between the Lockwoods and MGT Corp. You'll be glad to know I convince my fiance to still go into business with them . " Thomas's eyes lit up ; he went to reach for Rabena's hands , but she jerked away . " Thank you so much Rabena . I promise I won't- " Rabena held her hand up to stop Thomas from speaking . " I wouldn't thank me just yet . I made the deal with the chairwoman under the condition Tyler becomes CEO . She's assured me that won't be a problem . And seeing as to how you never even read my business proposal , and he read the entire thing , I think it's only fair he leads this project . " As fast as Thomas was about to rejoice , that's how quickly his joy came to an end . The color drained completely from his face as his knees began to buckle . He frantically searched for his grandmother who looked at him with disgust while standing next to Tyler . " Grandmother !! Tell her that's not true !! Tell her either I'm the CEO or there's no deal ! Tell her !! " Thomas began to frantically yell ; on his knees in front of his grandmother , he panicked as she stared down at him . Looking at Thomas for the disgraceful fool he'd always been , the chairwoman's hand landed hard on his cheek . SLAP ! Thomas grabbed his cheek , stunned his grandmother hit him . " You're a complete disgrace ! Your father and I did everything we could to turn you into a respectable young man and leader , but you've done nothing but turn into a lazy , spoiled , selfish , fool ! " The chairwoman unleashed all her fury out on Thomas , he'd embarrassed the Lockwood name for the final time . " You couldn't even be good to the young woman that saved my life ! Rabena was every bit the ideal spouse and I regret wasting a person like her on a person like you ! You've coasted all these years off of her talent and your cousins hard - work . Well , no more ! From this point on you're no longer apart of Lockwood Corp ! " Thomas looked on in horror , his entire future gone within a matter of minutes . " N - No , grandmother ! You can't do this to me !!! " Tyler stood in front of his grandmother and gripped Thomas up . " Stop embarrassing yourself Thomas , it's over . " Tyler released Thomas causing him to fall directly on back . Rabena then walked over to Danielle who was looking on in horror and anger . This wasn't fair ! She was supposed to get everything ! She was always first ! How had things gone so wrong for her yet so right for her worthless sister ! SLAP ! Rabena's hand came flying across Danielle's cheek . As she let out a loud yelp , Rabena leaned down and spoke . " That's for these past five years of making my life a living hell . "
