The Summons
Tina was in her office at the movie studio when she heard the beep indicating she had new mail. It was a personal email from Peggy Peabody.
The subject line: Peabody-Shaolin Acquisition
Ms. Kennard,
I need to discuss some immediate changes to the Peabody-Shaolin acquisition and would like to meet with you personally in New York City on Monday morning. The Peabody jet will transport you on Sunday afternoon along with Bette Porter who is also coming to New York to meet with me on a separate matter.
Please contact my assistant Michael to confirm and to coordinate transportation and hotel accommodations. My driver will pick you up on Monday morning to bring you to the meeting. Max Sweeney will be joining us.
Regards,
Peggy Peabody
Tina was shocked at seeing a personal email from Peggy. She was concerned that the deal might have fallen through at the last minute but couldn’t imagine what could have gone wrong. Last she knew everything was on schedule for the merger meetings which would take place in a couple of weeks. Helena arriving that week was to have Tina show her around, get acclimated to Los Angeles and to find housing. Why would Peggy summon Tina to New York for a meeting on Monday and mention Max Sweeney attending and nothing about Helena?
She would never question Peggy’s authority and she would comply with her mandate but before contacting Michael she decided to call Bette. Since Bette had the personal relationship with Peggy Tina thought she might have some insight as to what’s going on. She dialed Bette’s direct line from the business card Bette had given her.
“Bette Porter.”
“Hi Bette its Tina Kennard. How are you?”
“Hey Tina. I’m doing fine. Is everything OK?”
“Yeah. Everything is fine. Why do you ask?”
“I’m just surprised to hear from you. I don’t think you’ve ever called me before.”
“I guess I never had reason before.”
“No I suppose not. So to what do I owe the pleasure?”
“I just received an email from Peggy Peabody asking me to come to New York on Sunday for a meeting on Monday morning. She said she was sending the Peabody jet and that you would be going to New York as well.”

With Bette spending so much time inNY and Tina in LA. Romance is going to be slow going. Thanks
Thanks, BAT as I’m enjoying this story. Will be interesting to see if and how you bring our couple together. It’ll be an interesting journey to see how Helena handles her new found freedom and if she feels threatened by Bette and seeks revenge. I can’t see Bette and Tina getting that close when they are on opposite coasts but if anyone can bring them together, you can. I like your chose of characters that you’ve brought together as I always liked Max. Its nice that Dylan and Winnie have better personalities in this one.
Thanks again, looking forward to more chapters!
Like wkm said with Bette in NY and Tina in L.A.they will not have much time to get the romantic candle burning..But with Bette being in New York most of her time and Dylan assisting in the acquisition of Winnie’s theater I wonder if anything will happen there with the tease of the friendly flirting between Dylan and Bette…Perhaps Winnie even?…Interesting to see where all of this goes nonetheless ..And of course there is always Helena waiting in the wings to try to stir something up
This was an interesting chapter, and all turned out for the future.
I’m like the rest of us: for now I do not see how Bette and Tina together. but I hope you solve it ;)
Awesome, the story is getting more and more interesting. I like Peggy, she is leading the show. Thank you for posting… Pps
Wow, Peggy is a kingmaker. Who wouldn’t want a powerful friend like that? A person that really values friendship and loyalty.
I really enjoyed this chapter.
I do not believe in involvement
Bette with Dylan or Winnie.
Waiting new chapter.
