A phone call – edited chapter 13
“So, what about the video. How did Shane get it without Jenny knowing?” Bette asked as she finished feeding Logan his food and readied the bottle. She lifted the baby out of the highchair and moved to the living room where she got him settled on his playmat positioning the bottle so he could hold it.
Bette was still in awe of having a son. Being at-home with him brought her more joy than she could ever imagine. Everyone agreed Logan was a gorgeous baby, but as he was coming into his own his features were truly exceptional. His skin tone matched Bette’s. He had sandy brown curly hair and Marci’s sparkling green eyes with long lashes. Even though Marci was only 5’4” Logan’s length indicated he would take after his biological father or grandfather both of whom stood well over six feet.
He also had a wonderful disposition much like Angie at that age. He hardly fussed, and his Porter smile already had a charming effect. Bette and Tina were often stopped by talent scouts asking if they would consider signing him up with a modeling agency, but they had no interest in doing that.
Like Angie they would allow their son to develop and express his own interests and support whatever direction his life path took him on.
Bette sat on the floor next to him with her back against the sofa, and placed the phone next to her as Alex filled her in.
“Shane found it on the computer in her photography studio. Appears Jenny used the computer’s media software to edit videos from her phone and camera to an external drive but might have inadvertently copied them onto the computer’s hard drive too. Accidently or not the computer and software belong to Shane, so she has rights to the content as her property. She was doing some editing of her digital photos when she came across a file she didn’t recognize. She scanned it for viruses, it was clean, so she opened it. When she realized what it was, she called me immediately. I had my tech guy there in no time. Even though it’s not the original he has the technology that can prove it was downloaded from Jenny’s cell phone. With the video, Shane’s testimony, and the threats she made to you we have a strong case for peeping tom, but making the video raises the stakes. Downloading copies indicates the possibility of intent to distribute. What’s worse is her intent could be construed as criminally motivated.”

Bette Bette Bette. Please allow Alex to go after Jodi. Get them all. Ironic that Shane is reluctant to get involved. Sounds like the Shane in Gen Q. At any rate Bette has taken on a lot of guilt and part of it is a result of the way she was treated by Kit and the others. Bette and Tina are in love. They should make no apologies for that. Jodi was most likely still seeing Amy. Messy stuff. She was disrespectful of Bette at work. Did not believe any rules applied to her. On balance Jodi was arrogant and narcissistic. Time she got a real wake up call. Her two cohorts as well. This was truly a very refreshing read. Nice job!

Hi Billy,
Thank you for reading and commenting. Totally agree with everything you wrote. By this point however in the retelling to Alex, Bette is no longer carrying any guilt, She is with the woman she loves and was meant to be with, and though she has no regrets, I just think that acknowledging the affair with Tina even if Jodi was being duplicitous is part of her growth and being accountable for her actions. I promised when I introduced this storyline of Jenny, Kelly, and Jodi that they would all pay so don’t worry about them getting away with anything, I just need to figure out how to work it and connect them.
As always I appreciate your insights. Take care. .
Agree with Billy please let Bette allow Alex to go after Jodi (I never liked her!)
Nice to have you back more please,
SG
Hi SassyGran,
Thank you. Glad to be back with this story. Sorry I was gone for so long.
Jodi was my least favorite character on the show and I hated how she treated Bette (even before the Tina affair) so you can be sure I she will get what is coming to her.
Appreciate you sticking with me, and there is more to come soon. Take care..
Agree with Billy and SassyGran, let Alex go after Jodi and Kelly,. Serena and the Hammer! They deserve to be sued and pay greatly for what they have done to Bette.
Unfortunately, Bette still seems to see it as punishment she deserved for being with Tina when she was still dating Jodi, especially as her friends and Kit defended Jodi. Something I will never understand, public revenge in that way is inexcusable. Jodi should be punished for this along with those who made this possible.
Everything points to Kelly being involved in this, an incredible bitch with a misplaced ego.
I hope Tina can convince Bette that she should let Alex do her job although I understand why Bette would rather put this behind her. And i agree with Billy on the Shane part, she is unrecognizable in GQ and in my view has an occasional misplaced sense of friendship and loyalty to the wrong people.
I also think Bette is a great mother and the bond with Logan is so beautiful to see. She has everything she wants, a family and the love of her life, Tina, and is so pleased with this, you can feel and read her happiness between all the lines!
I loved this rewritten chapter!
Hi Bibi28
Thank you for your comment, and letting me know that you ‘loved’ the rewritten chapter. It means a lot. Jodi, Kelly, and Jenny will get what is coming to them – I just had Bette take a pause so I can figure out what direction to take. You are so right about Shane – I don’t know what happened to her in GenQ season 2, but she was acting so uncharacteristically – I read a few comments on social media where people were saying that she ‘called in her performance’ meaning she wasn’t really present and didn’t put much effort into her storyline. It was the most boring and ridiculous of all the storylines and though I like Tess, I really wasn’t feeling them as a couple.
Anyway the misplaced loyalty thing is one of her flaws, and in this story she will learn that Jenny is not deserving of it.
Thank you as always for reading and commenting.. Much appreciated. Take care..
Interesting developments. I certainly hope all three women get exactly what they deserve – prison time & humiliation.
These 3 are the most hated characters in my book of OG. One slimier than the other. Think Jenny was the worst from her first scene.
Still glad that Bette & Tina are on the right track & living their dream life.
Anxious to see them in NYC & adjusting to their new life there.
Thanks for a great chapter.
Go Alex!!!
Hey Collins,
Thank you for keeping up with this story and commenting. I know you’re busy writing yours so really appreciate you taking the time.
I agree with the trio of Jenny, Kelly and Jodi being the most disliked characters in the OG for me. I would put Jodi as the worst, then Kelly. I had a little bit of compassion for Jenny in some of the seasons as she was certainly a tortured soul but that was outbalanced by how deliberately cruel she was and she and caused a lot of destruction.
Bette and Tina are living their best life, despite these minor distractions. I’m looking forward to their lives in New York too. I’m spending as much of my spare time writing as possible as I do want to get this one finished. Take care.
Hi BAT,
Saw you just posted another update – will try my best to read it this weekend!!! I am so looking forward to it.
I wish you all the best in your writing & getting this story told!!!
My least fav character was actually Jenny – totally over the top – & Mia did such a fantastic job in her portrayal. Gotta think what part of her many versions was true to IC’s RL character???
And yes, make the 3 amigos pay BIGTIME for the mess they brought to Tibette.
Thanks for the updates.
And yes, I am working diligently on the next DOH update. Thanks for asking.
