In all the time, in that past life that seems to fade by the day, Lippy and I could never quite fully understand the relationship between Janet and Ms Du Monde. It seems that whatever link or control she had, it did not extend beyond the woman. There is obvious resentment here, about that relationship.<br/><br/>"I do, in fact," I say after some time, "have some additional information."<br/><br/>I reach into my briefcase and draw out a sealed envelope.<br/><br/>"You will find here Ms Rosenthal's signature on a number of documents. To start, she has authorized Ms Du Monde to act as her proxy in all dealings as Chairman of the Board of the currently-named JR Enterprises.  There is also Power of Attorney in all personal and corporate matters.  Now, our understanding is that Ms Rosenthal is currently in custody after a string of some rather surprising and questionable personal and professional decisions, not the least of which is some rather extreme plastic surgery.  Given her current status, these questions, and the current inability to make contact with her, Ms Du Monde has some to the inevitable decision that she must act, in the best interests of Ms Rosenthal and this company.   In that end, she has sent me here to act for her.  I will be acting as Chair and Chief Executive Officer for the time being.  Amanda, here with me, will be acting to assist me, and will be acting Chief Operating Officer."<br/><br/>I pause.<br/><br/>"Now, as you may know, Ms Du Monde has significant holdings and business resources, and has built up many profitable and influential relationships, in Europe and her in North America. She has been availing herself of the best legal counsel available for some time, and has chosen at this time, to rely on those relationships in legal matters pertaining to this corporation. As such, Ms Fenring, I'm sorry to tell you that she will no longer be requiring your services as General Counsel."
