Chapter 22
Peggy’s been in on this the whole time. Her showing up ‘out of the blue’ was carefully orchestrated and timed to happen at this very moment. She’s been keeping tabs on Helena for the past year. She is well aware of Helena’s little scheme. We were just waiting for the right time to expose her. We weren’t over exaggerating Helena’s presence here in Los Angeles Tina. The threat is real and it all comes to an end tonight. Whatever your feelings for Helena she is no longer heading the Peabody Corporation. Her mother has dethroned her for lack of a better term. Her ranting this afternoon over Peggy taking over will be nothing compared to what we can expect when she finds out that she’s being cut off financially as well as losing her position in the company. You already know she has a volatile temper so just be careful that she doesn’t turn it on you.”
“Why didn’t you tell me this before Bette?”
“Tee we tried, but you didn’t want to hear any truths about Helena. You accused me of trying to control you when I attempted to explain. Once you became sexually involved with her I didn’t know where your allegiance would lie. I couldn’t take the risk that you might purposefully or inadvertently leak information to her. I get the feeling that in the past few weeks she’s shown you some of her true colors and maybe now you’re ready to hear this. The night of the party you caught me off guard when you arrived with Helena but to have you proclaim that you were back with women and she was your love interest really sent me for a loop. I’m not totally past all the insecurities that you leaving me for a man raised, so to see you back with women does affect me. However my concern that night was more with your choice to be with Helena not women in general.”
“Bette, why didn’t you just talk to me? I didn’t understand why you were so angry.”
“Would you have listened Tina? I had to walk away from that situation as I couldn’t expose myself to the anger and stress level that a conversation like that would have caused this early in my pregnancy. The health and well-being of this baby is my first and most important priority. It would have been too much for me to stay once I saw how smitten you were with that snake. Nothing I could have said would have penetrated. Tee, through all of our bad times I’ve never seen such a hateful look in your eyes as you directed at me that night. That hurt me more than I cared to admit.”

Wow, this is major league chess! Love the way Peggy played the game. But I’m curious what will happen between Tina and Bette. I don’t think that Tina will stay with Helena for long. Helena showed her her true colors and she might turn her rage out on Tina.Thrilling, PPS
Finally ,common sense has prevailed.HELENA lacks decorum,empathy,sympathy and morals.She was so hellbent on destroying BETTE and using a naive but agreeable TINA that she developed tunnel vision,but PEGGY set her straight.Getting the kids proper treatment will ensure that no more harm befalls them thanks to PEGGY,BETTE and EMMA. PEGGY gaveth and PEGGY took it away from the worst kind of being ever born ,human or animal.To lose you legacy for some hairbrain scheme and end up with literally the clothes on your back shows how low you have gone HELENA. You should have quit while you were ahead,oh i forgot ,YOU NEVER WAS IN THE GAME..THANKS,ps.
Shall say it again, Peggy P is AWESOME!!!!! My goodness, Peggy did wreak havoc on helena and her damned plans of personal destruction and I’m so happy she did. Just hope Tina will tell her to go straight to HELL where she belongs. Hopefully Tina will try to maintain her friendships with the girls, after all they were only trying to help and see to her safety and care. So happy that all helenas’ machinations failed and that Peggy was aware from the beginning. So that was why Bette went to see Bruce Cohen when helena denied her grant and she was smiling when she went back to her loft in NYC. I knew she had done something but I never would have thought of this. And helenas’ personal assistant and her attorney as well. were in cahoots with Peggy, Bruce and Bette. That’s what happens when you treat people like caca on the bottom of your shoe. You just can’t do that and expect loyalty and friendship. A lot of people have learned that the hard way, always a bit too late. Happily Tina has learned what love truly is and that she made a huge mistake by leaving Bette. Still holding out hope for a reconciliation I know I’m probably wishing for nothing, and I do not want anything to happen to Emma to bring that about. She is a good woman and I like her, just not for Bette. Thank goodness Peggy loves Bette so much. Thanks for this wonderful chapter. I feel better already and am not in such angst for Tina not knowing what was about to happen. .BAT are you still feeling generous. I know I’m just being greedy now. Thanks for posting. Have a great one.
Love Peggy. Helena got what she deserved. Thanks, I enjoyed it
Well, you started my day in a nice way and now ended it in the same way, Thanks.
I’ve said it before but it bears repeating, I love Peggy!
Bette is lovely pregnant but I so wish the ‘other mother’ was Tina.
Thanks again for the post, please keep them coming :-)
