The L Wing
Chapter 268
Narration of President Bette Kennard Porter
 
After Holly leaves I leave the party and go to my office. I need to be alone to figure out what the hell just happened and what I do about it. I have too much to lose to let myself become the victim of Holly Lancaster’s crazed ego and desire to resurrect her career. She doesn’t really want me I decide – that conclusion I come to very rapidly. I was her play-thing – she turned her affections on and off and I was so besotted by her that I bought into the whole thing. I wanted anything she gave me regardless of how feeble an offering it was. I have really put her out of my head but as I sit in the half light in the Oval Office a lot of memories come back to me. Like her ringing me mid morning, begging me to take the afternoon off because she is suddenly free and she wants to be with me.
So I would take the rest of the day off, rush home, prepare a lunch and put the champagne in the fridge and I would wait and wait. If she showed up at all – it would be 2 hours late – without any explanation or apology. Very often she would not show up at all and I would be left feeling utterly miserable and despairing of ever finding a partner who would be as faithful and loving as I knew that I needed.
When she dropped me for good I cried for over a week – my heart was broken and I was so miserable. 18 years later she walks back into my life and wants to take up where we left off – she wants to have an affair with the President. As I am sitting thinking I get so cross with her – she thinks that I am just as pliable as I was almost two decades ago. She thinks that I am prepared to betray my wife – the mother of my daughter – what freaking planet does she think that I am ? It is not going to happen – I am not going to be manipulated by Holly Lancaster.

Only I wait which Bette does not go in this again, that it would be unforgivable. Only he wanted to see Bette’s reaction if it was on the contrary. Ally big updating.
It is so wonderful to have you and this story back
That was the best decision to make: tell Tina about what happened.No jodi, here is Holly, all the same. I hate her and Tina is right Bette is the POTUS, married and mother of 11 months old Ella. Different situation different time holly has no chance with Bette. She will be shifted at Antartica very soon if she does not behave lol.
so glad Bette went to Tina to talk this out. Yeah let’s see them hang the bitch!
Great writing as always, ally.
Your last chapter was quite upsetting. You really had me thinking that Bette could be just that weak, especially given the previous chapters, but YES, the president showed some backbone. Now let the games begin. I have a feeling that Tina is a master at any type of chess. Great update. Thank you.
Hi allyemmerson, After being foolish, Bette has doen the right things and talked over her kiss with Heather.Tina reacted with shock and disappointment at first and then saw the kiss for what it was.A pathetic attempt to rekindle a lost love affair.Now I hope that Heather gets her come-uppance as no one messes with Tina and her family.This is going to be so much fun.Many thanks frmo Your Loyal Fan and Friend.
I so love the choices Bette has made here. Tina is one foe that would scare the s**t out of me if I were to cross her. Great story telling Ally
Last chapter I could have chopped Bette in the knees for allowing that woman to kiss her and for her to return it. Glad that Bette told Tina and Tina did not erupt on her but understood what was really going on by that scheming wench holly. Also happy that Tina is going to pay her back in spades. holly will have to go to Iran to get that book published. Tina is my girl and I can hardly wait to see what she does to that witch. She deserves whatever punishment Tina dishes out. Great chapter. Thanks for posting.
Hi Ally I was so upset after your last chap. Bette is my hero inthese tales, & I couldn’t believe what she did and how it would play out. Thankfully she told Tina right aay, eas truthful and they wil resolve it together. I feel better after this post and looking forward to your next one.
This story remains one my favorites. The way you write character is WOW!
AM so glad that Tina didn’t give Bette the riot act. Great update. Thank you.
I’m so glad Bette came right out and told Tina. And she was completely honest about kissing her back. Tina is being very mature about this whole thing. I’m a bit concerned that Bette still seems to be smitten with Holly. She seems to have reverted back to her 26 year old self. She is sort of confessing that to Tina but Tina doesn’t seem to be picking up on it. I just hope Bette gets herself together a bit more before her next encounter with Holly.
Bette did the rigt thing,thank you.
I had to go here to read “something so right”..But alas I found a jewel of a story!..bit of afraid that you won’t continue this? glad that you’ve change your mind!..Now on to my next story to read “Something so right”…
ally, thank you for not making us go too long thinking Bette was the biggest idiot in the world. You rock as usual. I missed your writing so much – hope you had a good rest and your life is going well.
So can we have some update?…really, really, really love this!….what happen to president Porter?..and First Lady Tina?…Did her plan succeed to humiliate that bitch of an actress?
