Born on the island of Trinidad to an Afro-Trinidadian mother, Amina Ramping, and an Indian immigrant father, Khan Saad, Kerry had always known early on that she was different. It wasn't something that Kerry understood fully, but she watched the people around her and knew that she was smarter and better than them. The fact that she was also exotically beautiful also helped her. From those early days, Kerry knew that she wanted to rule her own little corner of the world...
At the age of twenty one, Kerry Ramping-Saad graduated from Caribbean Union College. It was one of the best schools in the island of Trinidad, but hardly represented a challenge for someone like her. She felt bored in her hometown of Rio Claro, and yearned to explore life outside the Caribbean. That's how Kerry ended up in the City of Atlanta, where she studied Criminal Justice at Spelman College, and then stuck around to get an MBA from Clark Atlanta University.
At the age of twenty four, Kerry Ramping-Saad was doing fairly well for herself. She was the youngest branch manager in the history of Fidelity Bank, and her keen mind and great beauty astounded her co-workers and competitors. Kerry had a reputation for being smart, driven and ruthless. Kerry was not the sort of person who would let anyone or anything get in her way, and she did not lose sleep over those whose lives she had to destroy in order to get ahead.
When Kerry got hired as an account manager by Fidelity Bank right out of university, Kerry's hiring manager had been an old white dude named Russell Dwight, who'd been with the bank for over twenty years. From the day Russell hired her, Kerry coveted his job. The old man was well-liked at the bank and had many allies, but Kerry found a way around that. Russell and his wife of thirty years, Mildred, were on the outs, and he was flirting with a young co-worker named Carol. That's all Kerry needed...
"I simply don't feel comfortable working in a place where an older, powerful man like Mr. Russell has his way with a younger colleague," a teary-eyed Kerry said to Denise Richardson, regional manager of Fidelity Bank. The older redhead looked at Kerry and nodded sympathetically. After working in the banking business for thirty years, Denise knew all about lecherous men who liked having their way with the women they worked with.
