Tina: “I only know Alice”
Sharon: “you know Bette, Bette Porter”
Tina: “oh…, Dr. Porter, yes, I met her”
Sharon: “Helena knows you, at least she saw you at the planet, weeks ago”
Joyce: “indeed Dr. Porter is the head mediator in your dispute with Aaron”
Tina: “good, this is gonna be a big show for them”
Joyce: “come on Tina, they are at your side, especially Porter…, well even if she doesn’t show it”
Sharon: “ahem…, Joyce why don’t you explain Tina your strategy for the meeting”
After half an hour, Sharon escorted Tina and Joyce to the meeting room, where Aaron and his lawyer Tom, were waiting while talking cordially with Elizabeth Porter, that vision per se, angered Tina.
Everybody sat and Bette took the floor. Tina was looking at her intensely; the brunette noticed it and tried to concentrate on the papers in front of her.
Bette: “well, we all are here to find a solution to the dispute between the director of the branch Aaron Kornbluth and the employee and inventor Dr. Christina Kennard, in summary this case is about a denounce of cheating against Dr. Kennard in detriment of the company, which has been file by the director of the branch; on the other hand Dr. Kennard is filing a complaint against the director for stealing intellectual property; there is, though, a precedent, the charges filed against the director of the branch for sexual harassment, the denounce was made by Dr. Kennard several weeks ago, that case is still under investigation; well, now I want to hear what the lawyers have to tell”
Joyce and Tom expressed the points of view of their clients and finally, Bette spoke again.
Bette: “the accusations are very serious, intellectual robbery and cheating were filed by both parties however the item in dispute is the same, a very important new project; fortunately we have the deposits of the advanced files submitted by each party, we…”
Aaron: “what? That bitch has already submitted files of my project?”
Bette: “please Aaron, no insults here, and the submissions are very different; I read and compare them this morning and I can say that, so what she submitted has nothing to do with what you did”
Tina was angry, she was enduring all this circus, and she sees that Dr. Porter has no consideration whatsoever for her complaints, no punishment to Aaron for the sexual harassment, no respect for her new complaint about robbery of her intellectual property…, she felt very bad, she has been a stupid romantic and juvenile girl, she thought the brunette could care about her when they were at the bathroom in Brenda’s house, no…, Elizabeth Porter is a player as Maura said, and she was playing games with her mind and feelings.
Joyce: “I ask the chair of the mediation committee to admonish the director, for referring on those harsh words to my client”
Bette: (sighing, looking supplicant at Joyce) “I believe that Mr. Kornbluth is too moody today, I’m sure an apology will be enough, right Aaron?”
Aaron: “I may apologize to this committee, but not to the person who is cheating on the company…”
Bette: (furious) “enough, Aaron, don’t make this situation worse… please”
Aaron: “okay, I just apologize for my words”
Bette: “okay, apology accepted; if there is no other comment I will pass these complaints to the mediation committee for further investigation, any question”
Tina: “which means forever, right?”
Bette: “excuse me what did you say?”
Tina: “I think you heard me right, my complaints will never be addressed, weeks ago, it was the sexual harassment and no decision or punishment so far, now is this one the robbery of my intellectual property, the truth…, you don’t care, right?”
Tom: “excuse me, ladies, if the conversation with my client ended, we are leaving, good afternoon and thank you”
Tom and Aaron left the room.
Bette: “Dr. Kennard, I think you’re very wrong…, I really care for all the employees of the firm, including you; but I have also to do my job as inventor and as a reviewer of inventions made for others in this company; and the same goes for Alice and Helena, and that is why things, sometimes move slowly, so, don’t speak so easily, that I don’t care”
Tina: “I doubt you care about all the employees, in the same way, obviously you care more for the high hierarchy here… I don’t know why I bother on filing complaints…”
Tina walked out of the room leaving Joyce, Alice and Helena dumfounded, while Bette walked out too following the blonde.

Hi proteonomics,
Sorry to hear about your troubles with the chapter and the picture. This picture looks great.
There are and will be a lot of hurt feelings between Bette and Tina and they will feel betrayed by Maxine when they discover she kept things secret and did everything to keep them apart. But Maxine had her reasons, but still there will be a lot of anger and hurt.
Both Tina and Bette are in difficult positions and Tina feels abonded and not being cared about by Bette, it is a mess. Isn’t there a way Bette can explain to Tina why she ” choose” Aaron’s side? Tina could be on board to catch those bastards. Maybe Bette can give hints via there chats?
Fantastic chapter and i am looking forward to the next one!!!!
Hi Bibi:
Yes, my friend, I was shocked when my documents were missing, but now everything is set for future chapters.
Respect to the feelings of Tina and Bette about Maxine, they will find out much later, and maybe it will be for good, in the meantime, the feelings between them are the ones driving the story and only when they are at peace (????????????) they could go over other issues.
The reaction of Tina is not only about Bette, but it’s also mainly about herself, and the next chapter you’ll realize Bette’s plan.
Yes, Bette could give Tina some clues, but Tina doesn’t want to hear anything from Bette this is becoming a power struggle between them, hope they’ll behave (hahaha).
Don’t worry about the current mess; a roller coaster is just started ????????????.
Thank you very much, my friend, for reading and commenting.

Thanks for posting sorry you had problems.
Wish Bette could join in with Tina on sorting this out they work so much better together.
Looking forwarded to more and not even mentioning the word ‘cliffhanger’!
SG
Hi SG:
Yes, I will like them to work together but they have to struggle with their feelings first, and find each other again, it has been 10 years and they are not even sure they were Alex and Randy (OMG, I’m not really talking about the new show, lol, just kidding ????????????), just give’em time.
Oh, and the cliffhanger thing, wasn’t about you, I had a couple of PM warning me.
Thanks again, for following this story

proteonomics:
Sorry to hear about your trouble, it’s also happened to me once. And after that I changed my way, that’s why I always wrote online, at least it wouldn’t disappear when my computer was broken.
Back to the story…what a chapter, 24 pages, lots of details and explanations. My mine is fighting whether to blame Maxine or not. It’s bad to keep such a secret from the girls, but she had her reason. she might just try to protect the girls but I still think it”s not her place to do so. In fact, its none of her business to interfere. I knew as a mother, she will be worried about her daughter, but what if Tina and Bette never met? They would be so sad and wouldn’t she carried the guilt for the rest of her life?
As for Aaron…Again, being such an asshole in the story, he’s sexism and should be punished. I could understand why Bette tried to be fair to both of her colleagues, but the things he’s done were nothing but evil, regardless of men or women. Bibi was right, it was indeed such a mess, please fix it soon.
What a great story, my friend, though Bette was still not my favorite, probably also because of the new show. I have fate that you will fix it and let them be happy together! Thanks for a great chapter!

Hi CJ:
Don’t blame Maxine, if she did something, it was for a good reason, and don’t blame for what Dawn Dembo did, that was just Dawn’s mischief, some people can’t understand how bad they hurt others just by playing tricks to them.
On the other hand, Maxine has to protect Bette and Tina, they were underage, minors and in a country in internal war, a place where human trafficking is every day’s business, moreover, Maxine had to protect especially Tina, well it’s a little complicated for now, you’ll find out later in the story.
And even though Maxine tried to avoid them to meet each other, destiny is unrelenting; but they would know each other sooner or later, they are in the same circle of friends and family, even if they didn’t meet 10 years ago, they would find each other, as they are doing now in current time.
Now, Bette has her own plan, just wait less than 1 week and you’ll read about it, but Tina is very stubborn.
And about the end of the story, forget about that, as people say, ‘there is much bread to be sliced and a war to be continued’…. ????????????, we are not even in the middle of the story.
Thanks for your kind words, my friend.

Wow…. Tina is hurt that things did not go her way. But they did not go against her either. The mediation committee found that the projects submitted by Aaron and Tina were nothing alike, therefore no thief has occurred. Tina still owns her work. And Aaron owns whatever he’s got which looks like perhaps some ideas and nothing more. Aaron has lost big time here. And it was all done without calling Aaron a thief. Tina needs to think this through. If Bette really did not care, she could have ruled that yes, they were the same and Tina could have had to share her project with Aaron. No, Aaron has not been punished, but now everyone is on notice that he is the thief of intellectual property. Patience Tina, patience. The wheels of justice sometimes turn slowly, but eventually results in fairness.
Really good chapter….Tina is going to figure out that Alex is not dead. And hopefully, we (your reading audience) are going to find out why Tina and her mother are in danger. Wait – her mother? Is Tina’s mother alive? Or is this a reference to Maxine Kennard? And why did Maxine need to keep Tina and Bette from knowing about each other while they were growing up?
Keep ’em comming….Love this story.
Hi Martha:
Yes, things weren’t as good as Tina was planning, regards to her work and her new feelings for Dr. Porter, but that will pass.
Yes, Bette tries to protect Tina and has her own plans, just wait a few days.
Now, indeed Aaron has stolen Tina’s files, but just the first ones, let’s say the pre-project, and that is what Bette has in her hands, Tina’s submitted project included the pre-project (modified of course) and all the technical development, obviously, Bette will see that Aaron’s is a cheap copy of Tina’s document and that he is the thief, but that will be seeing later, Bette was to play her cards carefully until she could destroy the document with the fake signature of her mother.
Yes, Tina’s biological mother is alive, and now is not far from her, but she hasn’t seen her yet. A clue, Maxine promised Tina’s mom that she will rescue her baby daughter and will take care of her.
Maxine, wanted to keep Tina hidden from Bette, because Bette could tell the rest of family and friends about Tina, and her evil father (Melvin) would perhaps, find about that baby; but Maxine isn’t opposed to Tina and Bette as a couple, on the contrary(????????????); wow, too many things are coming in the future chapters, I know.
Thank you, Martha, for liking this story, and for your kind words.

Every time I read a new chapter, I dislike Melvin more and more. It is no wonder that he is friends with Aaron, They are sleazy and immoral. I hope they are not part of a pedophile ring. They give me the creeps.
Bette and Tina are still dancing around each other. I wonder what big reveal you will have for Tina that Alex is not dead and she is actually Bette. They are going to be mad at Maxine when they find out.
Hi JS:
Yes, Melvin, Aaron and the other two creepy men, are very bad news. Aaron is on a different level than the others, but still, he is a bad man. But you already mentioned something that is written for the next chapter, Bette’s plan against Aaron.
The dance of Tina and Bette has just started, it will be a spinous dance with ups and downs, sweets and bitters, and big surprises for both of them.
Thanks for following this story, and I hope you like it.
