Round n Round We Go (Ch.14)
Chapter Fourteen
The newlyweds returned from their honeymoon in late August, happy as they ever had been. Time really flew when they were just having fun. But as the worry-free traveling ended, things had to get practical. Bette must go to her gallery and prepare for first a new impressionist artist’s show then Jodi Lerner’s metal sculpture collection. She got to book the artist after all. And the blonde girl continued to assist her through work. She was getting good at monitoring the balance of their gallery.
Bette received a phone call one late afternoon. It was her father’s accountant from New York. “What is it?”
“Ms. Porter, have you recently purchased anything over fifty thousand dollars?” The accountant asked.
“No, why are you asking?” She was a bit nervous hearing the amount. 50 thousand was not a small number, even for her. It could already get her a Ferrari California. But she had to live on her own now that she had her gallery. She could not spend 50 thousand dollars on a car that easily.
The man said nonchalantly. “Are you absolutely sure? We detected a discharge of 52 thousand 3 hundred dollars from a card under your account.” He was quite certain that a rich kid like Bette Porter would probably have no idea how much she spent. “Your father wants to check.”
“What? I’ve not made any discharge since last year. Tell me the card’s serial.”
So did the man.
Bette quickly pulled out a history of bank management on her laptop. The card was inactivated several weeks ago. And the only card that she could think of giving away at that time was the one made for Sam Kennard. “Can you track the card’s position when it made the discharge?”
“East California, high way 15, by the border of Nevada.” The accountant still didn’t quite get the situation. He said fairly plainly.
Bette wondered what Sam was doing in East California. And Nevada… could he really be in Vegas gambling as Helena had said?
“Ms. Porter? Do you know who is using the card? Do I have to alert your father?”
“No. I’m afraid the card had no security code. It was probably lost.” She told him, but more to herself. “Don’t worry, without the signature it’s not gonna cost my father money. Tell him not to worry and I’ll personally see to it.” She hung up the phone, started to pace in the room. If it was Sam, what could he possibly be doing? Why would he buy something so expensive? Things just didn’t make much sense. So she called up the bank again. “Bette Porter speaking.”

Right, it’s the fall-out! Drama and heartbreak!
But I promise you to fix things up, maybe not right up, but slowly and gradually for the couple. I’m already working on it!
I am about to try a new writing technique, and frankly, I don’t think I can write more confrontation after this… it’s just too difficult I didn’t even want to write it, so I will let this part of the story hang, and go on to the next part.
I can’t ask you to enjoy this, can I? But I hope you understand, and wait patiently for the next chapter.
Thank you for reading. I welcome your reviews.
Peace
nice part,now i am waiting to see how you handle the pregnant part?is it fascinating that Tina left with part of Bette.
Well, actually I’ve decided to not let Tina get pregnant, not when things are chaotic like this. You’ll find out what I have stored for the plot. ;)
RT,
I have expected that this will happen but I still felt bad for B & T. Frankly, Tina should have told Bette about Sam after their wedding or after the credit card incident but Tina’s love to her father hindered her from telling the truth.
Now I wonder how will this affect her relationship with her father.
Btw, Was it grandma who heard the conversation?
Thanks for the update :)

Well, you’ll find out how the relationships turn out.
And no, it wasn’t grandma who heard the conversation. You see, grandma has blue eyes. The brown eyes indicated that it was Bette herself.
Thank you for the comment :) Please continue to read and review.
This is sad, dramas coming, damn Sam, can some one take him away please. Please post more, thanks
Yeah, very sad indeed.
Haha, Sam will be of use later in the story. Can’t cross him off now. He’s Tina’s father after all.
I believe in people, actually, that they can change.
