    Chapter 24

    Tina reentered the ballroom and quietly made her way back to her seat. Everyone had already started eating but the server had kept Tina’s food covered so it was still warm. Once she’d hung up with Helena she saw a text message from Bette asking if everything was OK. She replied quickly that everything was fine before she started in on her meal.

    ***

    Helena got home to her beach house within thirty minutes of hanging up with Tina. She changed out of her evening attire into comfortable yoga pants and a pullover to ward off the evening chill. She went outside on the balcony of her bedroom facing the ocean and sat on one of the lounge chairs. This was her favorite place in the house to relax when she had serious thinking to do. She was rather glad that Tina hadn’t decided to accompany her home after all. She needed to be alone to decide how to face Kelly Wentworth and Jodi Lerner.

    Helena was brought out of her musing when she heard a discrete knock on her bedroom door. She unfurled herself from the lounger and went to answer it. It was Ramona the housekeeper letting her know that she had company waiting for her downstairs. At first she thought maybe Tina had changed her mind and decided to come over after all but that wasn’t likely, especially after how they ended their conversation. She didn’t expect she’d ever see Tina again socially; but couldn’t help but smile at the memory of the beautiful blonde. The smile was quickly replaced by a frown when Ramona told her that it was a Ms. Wentworth and Ms. Lerner calling.

    She’d feigned ignorance with Tina but she knew exactly why Peggy had aired their dirty laundry in public. Peggy was so cautious about maintaining professional decorum that she would only do what she did for self- preservation or damage control. Peggy must have gotten wind of the ace in the hole that Helena was counting on for her grand finale. She knew she’d lost the war but that didn’t stop her from wanting to get in one more strike. Now it would be a moot point because everyone would know she was behind it or at least that she endorsed it. Jodi and Kelly would not be too happy about this turn of events.

    2. Hey BAT2012,

      thought i would let you know that i read your chapters in silence. It was hard to read it again, all the sadness, heartache captured me again like the first time.

      I know that there is no chance for a Tina and Bette reconcellation, but wow you are a fantastic writer ! I hope you know that.

      I hope to comment again with the last chapter, because i remember certain facts of what happens in the next chapters, so i retreat and will come back.

    3. Three blind mice.There is nothing to do ladies but lick your wounds as PEGGY has surely struck a blow to you all.Even well thought out plans require a brain of which you three haven’t got,sooo what’s your next eureka moment?Go after BETTE?Hurt TINA?Try and take on PEGGY,again?(LOL).Between you three ,you can’t buy an idea that will get you what you want,that is the ruination of BETTE PORTER,not even gonna happen.TINA sit your ass down somewhere and listen to the people that love you and try to understand the playing field was way over your head and the players were not in it to take prisoners only reputations and you escaped with yours intact ,be grateful that you were spared yet so far in all this.THANKS,ps.

    4. Mercy, does she never quit. What the heck is she planning with those two miscreants. Bless Tina for not going to her and standing her ground, hopefully she will continue to stay away from her. Great update. Thanks for posting.
