“Mr. Stevens you know that you are not gonna get a better deal than the one that I’m offering to you, you know that, don’t you?”
Tina was sitting on the back of her Bentley Mulsanne on her way home from work when she received a call from Samuel Stevens, one of the owners of The Detroit Chronicle.
“Ms. Kennard I believe that our newspaper if not as big then it’s bigger than The New York Times, The Washington Post and Chicago Tribune. We have a significant number in circulation and still growing so I don’t think that what your offering is competitive than what I have been hearing around”
Tina laughed at what she heard “I can’t believe that you just compared The Detroit Chronicle to those newspapers, it’s not even in the same league”
The person on the other line scoffed “Ms. Kennard everyone says that you’re a beautiful woman and I totally agree but inside that gorgeous skin if yours is really rotten, do you know that?”
The blonde could clearly hear the displeased in the man’s voice, but she was so used to dealing with people like Samuel Stevens that hearing him say a bad thing about her was practically nothing.
“Mr. Stevens my apology if I hurt your feeling but what I’m saying is the truth. For the past couple of years there had been a significant decrease on the paper’s circulation and some of your advertisers have pulled out. Your lousy journalists are being sued left and right, your company is bleeding money, really, it’s going downhill. I can buy other newspaper but no I choose to give this offer to your company and I know for a fact that I’m the only one who is buying you out, is that right Samuel?”
“That’s not true I had a meeting last week with Carmelo from Hearst Corporation and he gave me a very competitive offer”
“I just talked to him the other day and he denied what you just said, so now I’m thinking one of you is not saying the truth. If it’s not you, then are you telling me that Mr. Carmelo, owner of The Houston Post is a liar?”

What a pleasant surprise on a St. Valentine morning :) Thanks for the great post. While waiting for it, I read your earlier stories (and that’s too bad for me because I neglected my work meanwhile). Loved them all and traced your manner of unfolding the events. So I’m waiting for more of this mystery story and of others as well.
I’m a little nervous…just saying. Great update.

Loving this story. PPS Can’t wait to see how it goes on their “date”
I know i know but can’t blame me for trying!:)) really like this story, can’t wait for next chapter. Hope you’ll make it naughty! Take your time but.. i’ll hope for update soon;) tnx for posting!
Tina has almost everything, doesn’t she? yet, she is not happy. More back story please. PPS
It’s a way out for Bette, but in her quest for vengeance, does she truly know what she’s getting herself into with Tina? Thanks for the post. :)
Oh. This is good. I cant wait. Are going to go slow and easy with it or fast and rough.
Phacey sweetie I sooo love the backstory and its nice to see that Bette is starting to show interest on tina. Agree with lysa2308 this story is unpredictable, thats why im addicted! lol! Thanks my friend and PPVS
Great update, enjoying the story. Sometimes I forget to comment. A question please; when did Dylan die, did I miss something. I went back and looked for it. Thanks.
Loving this shot. But I’m so torn because yes Tina is wrong for trying to buy Bette, but at the same time Bette will have her freedom from stripping and her tuition paid in full….seems like a pretty good deal to me. pps.
Intrigue, mystery … I can’t wait for the next chapter. And still this beautiful writing. Thanks.
