“Helena darling you brought this upon yourself and frankly I’m shocked at your audacity. Did you really think I would just stay away quietly while you maliciously worked to destroy my family, my company and my good name? I’ve been aware of every move you’ve made since I left the country. Believe me I could have stopped you at any time, but I thought it more prudent to let you continue. I wanted to see for myself how far you would take it.”
“Mother you have it all wrong. Bette has filled your head with all this foolishness just because she was upset about not getting the CAC grant. I just felt the center was more deserving and I really believed in Jodi Lerner’s work.”
“Save it darling. I know you diverted the funds from the CAC intentionally to send a message to the art community that Bette Porter and the CAC didn’t pass muster and to imply that I wasn’t holding them to a higher standard for having supported them so generously in the past. The fact is that I will be putting even more investment in the CAC and the Hammer Museum but you’ll hear all about that tonight.”
“I don’t even know why I’m attending this insufferable event anyway”
“Don’t you want to be there to support your girlfriend or are you tossing her aside now that she no longer serves a purpose?”
“I thought you were pulling her grant?”
“No dear. That is one of the things you actually got right. Her programs are very deserving and the review board has agreed to keep the grant in place.”
“So that’s it. I’m reduced to being a guest of one of the honorees?”
“That’s right darling. I also wanted you there when I make the announcement that Bette Porter will be replacing you as the Head of the Peabody Corporation.”
“You can’t do that. That’s my birthright mother. You can’t just give it away.”
“I can and I have darling. Not only are you no longer heading the family business but I’m also cutting you off financially. You can live on your father’s inheritance but you’ll get nothing from me.”
Just as Helena was smoldering over the news the limo pulled up in front of the hotel right behind the one from which Bette and Tina had alighted.
“Oh look darling we’re here and there’s Bette and Tina. Shall we go in?”

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 :-)
